Minimising supply chain disruption during the COVID-19 crisis

The onset of the COVID-19 crisis is putting extreme pressure on traditional supply chains. Many organisations are experiencing an unprecedented disruption in the form of border closures, stock supply interruptions and urgent changes to manufacturing directives.

As organisations are facing today’s challenges, we are creating opportunities to increase and diversify business connections, as well as open pathways for sustainable growth in uncertain times.

Alternative procurement options to meet evolving supply chain demands

We can help you establish new or alternative procurement strategies for supply chains impacted by the COVID-19 crisis.

We help organisations to mitigate upsets in the supply chain by allowing buyers to search for and create postings for goods and services to reach existing and, more importantly, new potential suppliers.

For organisations that have redirected their efforts into creating new products, this opens the door to find alternative sources amongst 4 million suppliers within a global network.

Assuring supplier continuity during the COVID-19 crisis

We help you discover vital information from suppliers to plan, prepare and take urgent action to mitigate the effects of the COVID-19 crisis.

Using pre-built reporting and online surveys, we provide organisations with the insights they need to mitigate supply chain risk and support business continuity. This allows organisations to understand their current and future supply chain risk exposure.

Solving supply chain planning and forecasting challenges

With a focus on solving key planning challenges in the supply chain, we provide the latest tools for managing sales and operations planning and cross-business collaboration. To solve new planning challenges that have arisen in your supply chain, we can help you build a business-wide planning foundation that can be expanded incrementally to further improve business resilience. This capability to devise powerful strategies will enable post-COVID-19 success.

The COVID-19 crisis has left many organisations struggling to adapt. To help expedite the changes needed to survive, organisations must have a deeper understanding of their suppliers’ current business challenges.
