The world is more connected now than ever before thanks to technology. While this means more communication, global commerce, and awareness, it also means that global events have a stronger ripple effect. Supply chains feel these ripple effects in particularly significant ways.
Trade deals, natural disasters, global pandemics, international disputes, and more create different challenges that impact the global supply chain in a multitude of ways. You cannot always predict these events or the specific effects they have on your supply chain, but you can take steps to prepare for their uncertainty.
This collection of resources covers a wide range of topics that will help you plan for uncertainty and remain agile when these unexpected events occur.
We will continue to add to this list. If you have a resource you would like to contribute, please contact us.
