Supply Chain Risk Management: a Practical Tool-kit

Today the Supply Chains are exposed to new risks they've never experienced before, because of the progressive emergence of exogenous trends, such as the globalization of supply networks, the rapid dynamics of real and financial markets, the excessive interdependence of unreliable partners. This extended operating environment in which companies are operating, requires the adoption of Supply Chain Risk Management tools, which in turn should be derived and integrated with the system of performance measurement. This paper introduces a practical tool for SCRM and a methodology, which may support organizations, in identifying and assessing the risks of business interruption from Supply Chains.
