Resiliency and Flexibility in Supply Chain: What COVID-19 is Teaching Us

Rethinking Supply Chain

It’s been nearly a year since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. What have we learned about supply chain so far?

In this episode, John Abrams, CEO of Venzee, and Diana Chen take a minute to reflect on what the global pandemic has taught us about supply chain management in unprecedented circumstances. John discusses how even backup plans for worst-case scenarios may have accounted for weeks-long disruptions, but year-long? Unimaginable.

John and Diana also continue their conversation on digital vs. physical supply chains. John addresses the deep fragmentation that exists within the supply chain as a result of individual entities optimizing their own footprint without full visibility into the end-to-end process.

Listen now to hear how end-to-end digitization in the supply chain can help reduce losses from unexpected downtime and what the future of a digital supply chain might look like.
