Overcoming Operational Glitches:
Supply-chain Recovery is a Competitive Capability

A Crisis Management White Paper
By Professor Alan Braithwaite, Cranfield University and LCP Consulting

The need to plan for supply chain risk mitigation and recovery, and how to go about it.

In today's volatile and interdependent economy, even the best organized companies are increasingly vulnerable to many types of supply chain disruptions that are beyond their control. Until recently, the effort to manage these disruptions has mainly concentrated on achieving better stability.

But the increasing rate of shocks, surprises and unpredictability has added supply chain risk management and recovery to the boardroom agenda. Response and recovery in a global business involves teams working in various locations toward a common process, and effective communications becomes critical to a fast response.

The author covers topics such as:

• How supply-chain glitches destroy shareholder value
• General principles of risk mitigation and recovery
• The global economy and the implications of extended supply chains

Audience: Executives, Supply-chain leaders, Business Continuity managers, and anyone concerned with their organization's supply-chain.
