The biggest challenge facing Business, in today’s fast paced and ever-changing world is the ability to deal with change in a structured and cost-effective manner.​
Supply chains by nature are networks that require dynamic management of internal and external inputs and outputs throughout a product’s value chain. Taking a proactive approach in creating an evolved, visible, agile and sustainable supply chain network, that is bound by Industry best practices and methodologies, supported by leading edge technology, underpinned by a notable communications framework that will strengthen business relationships thoughout the supply chain, will result in improved business performance.
​
​Business challenges: during the Covid-19 period, businesses were forced to adapt, to ensure business continuity, and now current times see climate change and extreme events becoming priority discussion points for companies globally. There is consensus that this is one of the most important factors influencing the efficiency of the present economic networks. As these unexpected events accelerate an organizations need to understand how it affects their assets and operations, it is yet another challenge for decision-makers to overcome. It has become paramount for any organization to begin to build resilience, stay competitive and protect their bottom line.
​
Executives are now asking: “How exposed is our global supply chain network? Which critical sites have the highest exposure in terms of revenue impact? Which types of events could potentially affect each site? Are appropriate business continuity plans in place to protect our operations?” In these discussions business leaders are also looking beyond their company’s own locations and seeking to understand the risk of their suppliers and their suppliers’ suppliers. Do suppliers have continency / backup plans? Supply chain executives must be especially vigilant to detect such early warning signals of climate volatility.​
