Program Overview

The Supply Chain Resilience Program provides knowledge and tools to help you understand the choices available to your organization to manage supply chain risk and enhance the resiliency required for long term sustainability and profitability.

Building Resilient Global Supply Chains:

  • Do you understand the differences between robust and resilient supply chain strategies?
  • How do you identify and plan for internal risks in your company along complex global supply chains?
  • Do you know how to handle unexpected external risks? Disruptions? Catastrophes?
  • What are your company recovery plans?
  • Do your plans focus only on organizational and business issues or do they extend to the realities of social, economic, environmental and personal factors?

Supply chain risk is increasing globally. The financial impact of supply chain disruptions can be devastating and are often not understood until it is too late.

Supply chain strategies driven primarily by cost management and delivery improvements are no longer comprehensive enough to ensure competitive success.

Supply Chain Resilience is increasingly a competitive differentiator. Supply Chain Resilience is the capability and capacity of a supply chain network collectively/holistically, and of individual participants in that network individually, to “bounce back” from the impact of a risk event, quickly, cost-effectively, and in line with the overall value proposition.
