Getting Started with Supply Chain Resilience
Companies must be able to demonstrate that they are able to absorb and recover from disruptions in their supply and demand. It is essential to understand the risks and to have an adequate plan. The most important aspects of Supply Chain Resilience are:
- Robustness: Ensuring continuity in the supply chain despite disruptions.
- Redundancy: Having sufficient backups and alternatives for critical elements in the supply chain.
- Flexibility: The ability to adapt the supply chain to new circumstances.
- Speed: The speed at which the supply chain adapts, including decision-making and allocation of manpower and resources.
- Collaboration and communication: Ensuring effective communication to all stakeholders in the supply chain, thereby identifying risks more quickly and improving the coordination of corrective actions.
- Visibility and monitoring: Creating transparency in the chain, making problems and improvements visible.
In this way, organizations are more resistant to disruptions and are able to continuously maintain business operations.
The first three steps here are:
- The Supply Chain Resilience scan;
- Determining the financial consequences;
- Drafting an emergency plan.
