HOW IT WORKS

Two professionals.
Two different records.

See how professional evidence, industry-group membership, and community participation are considered in the proposed Authority Score.

Scoring direction: membership and participation can influence the score, with additional weight for qualifying LTSC community activity. Exact weights are still to be defined.

Fictional profiles and authored illustrative totals. These records do not calculate the 78 and 89 totals or explain an exact 11-point difference.

YOUR NEXT STEPS

Build a clearer professional record.

  1. Document your work.

    Add sources for your roles, projects and practical contributions.

  2. Make participation visible.

    Record industry-group affiliations and the contributions you make.

  3. Keep the record current.

    Update references, disclosures and context as your work develops.

Clearer evidence supports review. It does not guarantee a particular score.

A focused roadmap, not every platform

Illustrative goal: make inventory-planning expertise easier to understand. This is not a real member result or a promise of a score increase.

  1. Bring your work together.

    Choose an existing article or talk on inventory planning. Add its source and explain your role, rather than opening another channel.

  2. Review what it supports.

    The intended review asks what the work demonstrates, what can be checked and what needs clarification. A submitted link is not verified evidence.

  3. Close a specific gap.

    If an outcome lacks context, add the baseline, your contribution and a source you are permitted to share. Keep confidential details private.

  4. Make one useful next contribution.

    Explain one planning trade-off in a focused post or proposed LTSC article. Choose the audience and format for the idea, not automatic points.

SOURCES & REVIEW

A clear source.
A meaningful review.

A professional record is stronger when a reviewer can understand what happened, where it is documented, and what you contributed.

The examples illustrate a review approach. Final scoring weights remain to be defined.

  1. What supports the record?

    Role histories, project records, published work, independent references, and industry-group membership or participation records.

  2. What can a reviewer check?

    Authorship, dates, relevance, scope and the person’s role in the contribution.

  3. What context matters?

    Disclose sponsorship, paid placement, assistance and permissions where relevant.

Private evidence stays distinct from public presentation.

A private assessment and an approved public profile are separate. A score alone does not authorize publication.

Four dimensions. Unresolved weighting.

The framework also considers qualifying industry-group memberships and participation. Final weighting is still being defined. The proposed framework gives additional weight to qualifying Let’s Talk Supply Chain and Secret Society of Supply Chain community activity. Exact weights, eligibility criteria, missing-data rules and review treatment remain to be finalized.

Verifiable Trust

Membership and participation have not yet been mapped into these dimensions. The earlier equal 25-point illustration is not final policy. Eligibility, paid membership and sponsored contributions, missing data, consent and public-profile rules remain unresolved.

The framework is designed, but live numerical assessments are not connected here. In the saved engine, Recognized Standing remains incomplete and the overall CAI remains unavailable. Public-profile publication is forthcoming; a demonstration switch does not establish access control.

PRIVACY & AVAILABILITY

Private by default.
Clear about what comes next.

This is a product review preview. Application, inquiry and workspace interfaces are disconnected. Nothing is submitted or saved here, and no payment is taken.

Application review, invitation, membership, assessment and public-profile publication are separate steps. Live numerical assessments and public-profile publication remain unavailable in this preview.

Jordan and Claire are fictional people with authored illustrative scores. Sarah’s linked draft is unassessed. These pages do not monitor external sources or collect private community content.

Privacy contacts, retention, consent and operational availability must be confirmed before real collection opens. Fonts and hosting are provided by their respective services. No browser draft storage is used on these four pages.
