Supply Chain Operating Model Revolution – How to Organize and Upskill for Continued Turbulence Disruptions are a fact of life in A&D supply chains and are likely to get worse before improving. Fashionable discussions include digital solutions not yet in existence or fully deployed, safety stock levels that suppliers can’t possibly build up, and dual/re-sourcing that will take years and significant cost to execute. This session lays out several practical solutions in use today - with demonstrated shortage reductions – that are better enabling players to anticipate and absorb turbulence rather than try to control or wait for calm weather.
