7. CBAR (Progressive Scale Concept)
Chapter Officers: This document is the creation of the 2017 CBAR Task Force. The task force was formed by the District Manager Committee for the purpose of updating the Chapter Benchmarking and Reporting (CBAR) tool to align with the new Channel Partner Agreement (PA-17) and to incorporate more relevant issues (I.e. social media and Instructor development.) During the Task force's time together, it has become clear to us that the original intent of the CBAR tool has been lost over the years. The CBAR tool was originally intended to help Chapter Officers run stronger Chapters--not simply to earn a grade. The CBAR scores are for the District Managers and are to be used to understand what areas each Chapter needs develop in. The details of the CBAR report are never given to APICS Corporate, even though the scores are reported for the purpose of awarding Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum awards. With this in mind, the CBAR Task Force has identified a new method for evaluating Chapters that we believe will also allow a Chapter to see what is possible in each area, not just simply earn a score. We are calling the new method a "Progressive Scale" technique, a format that many of us use in our businesses today for Suppler Evaluations and Risk Management. The progressive scale concept will help each Chapter answer the question , "what does good look like?" for each specific criteria. We have completed about 60% of the conversion from the old CBAR tool to the new Progressive Scale CBAR tool and thought this would be a good time to check in with you for your feedback. Please review the "Progressive Scale CBAR" tab in the attached workbook and provide feedback to your District Manager. Tell us what you like and what you think we can do to make it even better. We plan to release a more complete version in the commit weeks. Thank you, CBAR Task Force-2017, Celeste, Jeff, Reed, Leann, Michele, and Joost
