520 _a"Logistics consultant John Manners-Bell assesses the various sources of external threat to the supply chain, including environmental, geopolitical, economic and technological. He examines the lack of supply visibility which puts businesses at risk, discusses best practice and cites examples of when and how things go wrong. Covering global issues, trends and developments, case studies look at: the tsunami in Japan, floods in Thailand, volcanic ash clouds over Europe, counterfeit hi-tech goods in China, Walmart providing aid to Hurricane Katrina victims and Cisco's suppliers going out of business due to the recession. Each case study describes: -A company's supply chain and production/sourcing strategy -A description of the catastrophic event that occurred -Consequences to the supply chain -Management response -Material losses incurred -Resultant changes to company supply chain strategy With useful downloadble resources, Supply Chain Risk analyzes the evolving risks to supply chains and how real companies are handling with them at a strategic level"--
