Global supply chains have entered a new era. This era is defined by unpredictability, complexity and geopolitical tension. Events that were once considered abnormal such as tariff spikes, regulatory overhauls, trade disputes, pandemics and extreme weather events are now a regular part of doing business. Companies can no longer afford to react passively. They must strategically prepare for disruption and use that proactive readiness to enable a competitive advantage in today’s and tomorrow’s global marketplace.
