Supply Chain Sustainability and Resilience: Four Phases of the COVID-19 Crisis

As the COVID-19 crisis unfolds, it is not only testing – and often breaking – the continuity of many supply chains, but is also exposing the quality of the underlying management system foundations for resilience and long term value creation. There is a cold irony suggested by sustainability pundits, that the Coronavirus crisis has struck right in the midst of a ‘stakeholder capitalism’ movement where companies were making commitments to “serve a social purpose”.

It’s tempting to think those commitments have all gone out the window (or been put on hold), but a careful look at four steps of crisis evolution reveals the vital link and importance of robust sustainable procurement practices to assure resilience and protect long-term value within your supply base.

In this roundtable-style webinar, we will walk through a four-part framework:

• Identify risks exposed during early Reaction and Resilience phases in your supply chain
• Discuss supplier selection criteria for Rebuilding stronger as this crisis passes
• Explore a ‘New Normal’ of performance and preparedness for future crises
