Course Overview

    

Strategic Supplier Development is defined as an array of activities through which the buyer firms take initiatives to trigger and support the development of chosen suppliers in order to gain a technological advantage and mitigate the risks associated with the supply base optimization.

Efforts to identify and mitigate supply chain risk have traditionally focused on operational risks and familiar sources of potential disruption that have caused trouble in the past. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Risks are constantly evolving and can strike from almost anywhere – including sources that are new and unexpected.

A more holistic approach needs to consider and address four distinct categories of supply chain risk:

  • Macro environment risks
  • Extended value chain risks (upstream and downstream partners)
  • Operational risks
  • Functional risks
