Supply chain risk management: How Gartner can help
Key tenets of supply chain risk management are enhancing resilience and improving
competitiveness. But supply chain risk management today must account for
unprecedented, fast-developing market disruptions as well as transformation inside
the organization, making it difficult to achieve agility and competitive advantage. To
succeed, supply chain risk management must be a collaboration between supply chain,
procurement, and enterprise risk management (ERM) managers. Innovative technology
solutions and advanced analytics enable continuous review and integration of supply
chain risk management with the business. Gartner provides supply chain leaders with
insights, advice, data and tools to increase supply chain risk readiness. Visit gartner.com
