Managing Risk To Avoid Supply-Chain Breakdown
Sunil Chopra,ManMohan S. Sodhi +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a "what if?" team exercise called "stress testing" is used to identify potentially weak links in the supply chain and then select the best mitigation strategy: holding "reserves," pooling inventory, using redundant suppliers, balancing capacity and inventory, implementing robust backup and recovery systems, adjusting pricing and incentives, bringing or keeping production in-house, and using Continuous Replenishment Programs (CRP), Collaborative Planning, Forecasting, and other supply-chain initiatives.
