The Subcontract Management Body of Knowledge (ScMBOK) represents the seven knowledge and skill areas required to adequately perform duties as a professional Subcontracts Manager (ScM) and/or a Technical Representative (TR) in the execution of publicly-funded contracts.
ScMBOK also includes specific competencies that complement the seven knowledge/skill base areas. These competencies include, but are not limited to, leadership skills, communication skills, negotiation skills and critical decision-making skills. ScMBOK contains a Code of Ethics; its purpose is to promote proper and upright conduct by all who associate with ScMI.
ScMBOK is the basis for the ScMI© Subcontract Management Certification Program (ScMCP) that contains three pedagogical methodologies:
- Formal Training;
- Self-Study;
- Experiential Training/Performance
