Tetra Pak supply management drivers are sustainability, quality and safety, competitiveness and innovation. During this session we get to follow their change initiative journey. We learn about their risk based approach per category and how actions are prioritized based on risk tolerance.
How do you analyze, track and monitor supply chain disruptions?
If only we knew in advance what we don’t know.. The below poll question and results highlight how hard that is. Financial ratings is a given and probably a minimum. But how to turn all data available into a decision tool to make informed decision before it is too late. What would your responses be? (And don’t mind the German letters, no idea how they turned up here..)
How is our organization preparing against risk?
These results are reassuring – 50% of the respondents work with proactive measures and data to make informed decisions. All were impressed by the 12% also having their sub-tier actions visible. Something that is really hard as concluded by Maria and Benjamin.
Technology role in supply chain risk management
How do you gather, manage and share the right information with those needed across the supply chain? It is easy to view risk management as a stand alone activity. Riskmethods state that more than 75% of companies only have tier 1 visibility. That however every 2nd disruption originate from tier 2 or below.
In 2017 EBG hosted a webinar where Benjamin was working at Husqvarna Group! Being able to make multiple choices, 72% then had tier 1 visibility and 30% sub-tier visibility.
The challenges stay the same but technology is evolving fast. Systems like riskmethods today including AI and other ways of helping businesses get real time data from multiple sources.
