Building a Resilient Supply Chain in Uncertain Times
Please join us for an educational webcast focused on supply chain resiliency strategies and industry best practice approaches. Companies with global and complex supply chains are increasingly concerned about the threat that potential supply chain disruptions pose to revenues and profits. Emerging markets, globalization, and the quest for cost savings are but some of the multitude of drivers behind what many manufacturers now face: lean, long, yet brittle supply chains. Recent calamitous events -- from tsunamis to earthquakes to fires to quality problems -- have exposed just how significant supply chain disruptions can be to the bottom line. More than ever, planning, monitoring, and mitigating supply chain risk is a critical success factor for all businesses in 2012 and beyond.
Key discussion highlights will include:
• Awareness of the likelihood and potential consequences of supply chain risks
• Inherent challenges in building a resilient supply chain
• New technology tools that companies are using to assess, monitor, and manage global risks
• Recognizing the multiple risk treatments your organization can leverage to formulate a resilient supply chain strategy
