Description:
Supply chain risk is changing more rapidly than ever before, with new regulatory challenges, geopolitical and domestic political issues, and changing sourcing demands having a major impact on companies of all sizes. In this webinar, BSI will review emerging risks and threats to supply chain resilience, evaluate the responses that companies can take to mitigate and take advantage of these risks, and use case studies to illustrate successful responses.
The webinar will show the importance of building an overall management system for supply chain risk management that includes relevant stakeholders across the organization, from procurement and purchasing to legal and trade compliance. To ensure continued success of these efforts, BSI will discuss how to successfully integrate technology into supply chain risk management and demonstrate return on investment.
Attendees of this webinar will learn:
- About new and emerging supply chain risks
- Options to mitigate and even take advantage of risks
