The COVID years showed us that the worldwide supply chain was unprepared for significant disruption, and recovery was just as challenging. Before the pandemic, many companies had been struggling to manage their supply chains. COVID exposed their weaknesses, revealing how unprepared they were to deal with the brute force that replaced best-practice planning and execution capability as the primary supply process.
In today’s ever-changing environment, businesses have realized that focusing on planning and preparation are essential to competing in any environment. Every business that does this well rises above their peers.
