Is your company prepared for today's supply chain risks?

As we've seen over just the past few months, the global business environment is teeming with supply chain threats, ranging from key supplier financial failure and product quality or compliance issues to disruptions due to natural disasters, infrastructure failures or geo-political factors. At times, it can seem like the list is endless.

What's more, off-shoring, emerging market sourcing and spend reduction initiatives have increased exposure without a related increase in comprehensive closed-loop risk assessment, planning and mitigation solutions. Clearly, companies must now look beyond supplier credit ratings to understand and control their full supplier risk exposure in a single view.

What can you do to better evaluate and manage your global vendors?
