Making the Case for Supply Chain Resilience Investments

In this virtual briefing, Dr. Jarrod Goentzel discusses why building resilience is not just a defensive move but a strategic advantage. He outlines how companies that can reroute flows and reconfigure capacity are better positioned to respond to supply chain disruption and dynamic market conditions than those relying solely on traditional risk management. Drawing on research and industry examples, Dr. Goentzel discussed:

• Why resilience requires a deeper understanding of multi-tier flows and operational capacity across a mix of internal and outsourced partners
• How to frame investments in capabilities such as surge capacity and flexible operations
• Ways to assess the CapEx and OpEx trade-offs in defining strategic resilience initiatives
