An Interactive 5-Day Training Course
Supply Chain Risk Management
How to Manage Operational and Disruptive Risks and
Tame the Uncertainty in Supply Chain
Course Overview
The Supply Chains have become the multi-structural dynamic systems vulnerable to disruptions with a significant impact on entities business and performance. In modern times, supply chain risk management is used to identify the potential sources of risks, their possible influences and propagation through the supply chain as well as to plan and implement appropriate actions in order to remove, reduce or mitigate supply chain disruptions.
Managing risk has become a crucial challenge for supply chain managers due to growing global competition, rising cost pressures, increasing customer expectations, geopolitics and ever-increasing complexity.
In supply chain design, planning and optimization, we need to take uncertainty and risk into account as we develop decision-oriented solutions. In order to consider possible impact of operational risks and disruptive risks, use of dynamic simulation methods and software is almost mandatory.
This GLOMACS training course on supply chain risk management will highlight:
- How to develop analytical and management skills to analyze bullwhip and ripple effects
- Need for technical skills on batching, ordering rules and events
- Performing variation and comparison experiments in AnyLogistix dynamic simulation software
- Major trade-offs in supply chain risk management
- Planning and avoidance of major supply chain disruptions by identifying risk and recovery
