ABSTRACT:
With supply chains expanding in size and complexity, enlightened professionals and companies are focusing more energy on managing supply chain risk. While the topic is gaining prominence in boardrooms, companies do not yet have a sufficient grip on the risks they face and do not commit the time and resources necessary to understand global sourcing and the ramifications, costs, and benefits of redesigning supply chains to better manage risk.
Download this white paper and explore new thinking on potential risk to global supply chains and how companies are adopting the statistical methods more commonly associated with finance and insurance. Learn how identifying and profiling risk variables, quantifying risk, and using IT solutions can create higher resilience for supply chain management.
