These interruptions, when they happen, should be addressed as quickly and efficiently through resiliency of the supply and demand chains to ensure that business performance goals are met.

This webinar, with AMR Research Vice President and Research Fellow, John Hagerty, will outline a strategic approach to risk management, operational compliance and quality management to address these challenges that many forward-

This approach enables enterprises to aggregate data and information from disparate sources in the extended enterprise, conduct scenario planning and “what if” analysis and make business decisions to maximize profitability and shareholder value.

Some of the topics that will be covered include:

• Impact of a distributed supply chain and demand chain
• Demands caused by outsourcing and globalization
• How to best manage multiple risks including supply chain risk, financial risk and geo political risk.
• Business continuity planning
• Impacts of local legislation and mandates
• Vendor and supplier management
