Over the years, executing a risk mitigation plan has transformed from something that’s nice to have to something that every company must have, at all times, in all facets of the organization.

Liken it to the blind leading the blind, getting lost in a maze or driving while blindfolded.
Not being able to see ahead and predict and plan accordingly is what sometimes plagues many of today’s supply chain companies.
That’s why mitigating supply chain threats is of utmost importance heading into 2024.
