How a Global Electronics Manufacturer Navigated the Pandemic With No Supply Chain Disruptions
COVID-19 challenged and disrupted global supply chains more severely than any event in history. Many large manufacturers discovered—painfully—that there were hidden weaknesses in their supply chains. In contrast, companies that invested in supply chain risk management tools, particularly mapping their supplier networks, had a different experience.
This case study – featuring a global electronics manufacturer – highlights one of these supply chain mapping success stories.
Key Insights:
- 650 suppliers mapped, down to tier-2
- Precise location knowledge of 7,500 parts and materials
- 5 minutes to isolate which suppliers were impacted
- 12-months of supplier shipped prior to shutdown
