Supply Chain Resiliency is the capability of the Supply Chain to be prepared for unexpected risk events. It is the Supply Chain’s ability pic-1-Supply-Chain-Resiliency-200x300.jpeg?profile=RESIZE_710xto respond and recover quickly to potential disruptions.

There is a general belief among organizations that a large percentage of a product’s costs are locked in by design.  It is assumed that pic1-Integrated-Cost-Management-300x193.jpeg?profile=RESIZE_710xlittle can be done once the design is set.  This assumption has influenced cost management programs across diverse products’ life cycles. As a result, the focus during the design phase is Cost Reduction and Cost Containment during the manufacturing phase.

Formulating a Capabilities-Driven Strategy (CDR) is easy, but the execution is difficult, especially in turbulent times. This is not the time toCapabilities-Driven-Strategy-300x200.jpeg?profile=RESIZE_710x find a cave and hibernate until the economic storm passes. It is unlikely that the storm will pass anytime soon. Capabilities-Driven Strategy is the only way to remain equipped for perpetually stormy weather.

Dear Friends,

You may be aware that the Government of India demonetised the highest two denomination bills of INR1000/- and INR500/- on 8th November 2016. Whilst, the usage of demonetisation as a tool to fight corruption and money laundering is debatable, the Indian case study, as per a Reserve Bank of India memo released on 11th August 2017 mentions that an estimated INR2.8 to INR 4.3 Trillion flowed incrementally (money kept outside the banking system) into the banking system.

Risk Management's 3 Basic Steps

In order to be effective, risk management must involve three phases:

  1. Risk identification & assessment
  2. Mitigation design & implementation
  3. Active monitoring of mitigation activities

  1. Improper risk identification often results from identifying a risk’s symptom instead of its root cause. When this ha

framework.jpgMany companies share some problematic habits when it comes to compliance. The worst of them is treating compliance like a checklist. In other words, thinking, “If we meet these specific compliance requirements, our company should run efficiently and securely.” While this is a simplified outlook, the point remains the same. Being compliant guarantees neither efficiency nor security, but failure to meet requirements can have long-lasting negative effects.
