Dr Pieter Nagel is a highly qualified Logistics, Procurement, and Supply Chain Management professional with more than three decades of commercial, industrial, and academic experience within diverse industries, as well as government and education sectors in Asia Pacific, Europe, South Africa, and Australia. Dr Nagel has been instrumental in developing and implementing the ASCI Professional Accreditation Scheme, which aims to provide professional recognition to individuals.

ASCI is the not-for-profit Professional Accreditation Body for Supply Chain Management in Australasia.
ASCI enhances the status of supply chain management as a profession by improving the quality of the workforce, public trust and confidence with respect to compliance of relevant regulatory or legal requirements.
Drawing from its heritage, ASCI has developed a professional accreditation scheme to register Supply Chain Professionals, Practitioners and Associates. The scheme aligns with the requirements of the Professional Standards Authority - the independent statutory body responsible for promoting professional standards and consumer protection.
