Current Challenges in Supply Chain Management

Cost pressure, supply shortages and liquidity have characterised the challenges in the supply chain over the last five years. The sudden capping of global supply lines or expansions, as is currently the case in defence technology, are creating supply shortages.

The aim is to

  • ensure supply through diversity of global and local sources,
  • eliminate waste through process improvements,
  • reduce capital commitments through planning and scheduling.

In addition, it is necessary to

  • overcome human inertia,
  • restructure the organisation,
  • reduce errors in the information chain.

The interim supply chain manager, with their expertise and assertiveness, is the ideal solution for these challenges.
