Beyond the Bottom Line: How Supply Chain Disruption Has Impacted Businesses
To say that recent disruptive events had a huge impact on global supply chains is to put it lightly. Beyond COVID-19, natural disasters, cybersecurity breaches, trade disputes and more all took their toll.
Supply chains are adapting and rebounding. And businesses are examining the costs, the challenges yet to be overcome and the strategies they’ll need to thrive.
The Economist surveyed 400 senior supply chain and procurement leaders about how their enterprises were affected by supply chain disruptions. The results are illuminating.
The Economist’s new report — The Business Costs of Supply Chain Disruption — discusses in depth how businesses adapted to new challenges, where they felt the greatest impact and what the long-term effects are likely to be. With a wealth of insights from industry experts, it’s an invaluable resource for supply chain leaders trying to stay one step ahead of the next disruption.
