Supply Chain Resilience
Supply chain resilience is the ability of a supply chain to withstand disruptions, recover quickly from them, and adapt to future challenges. It involves building robustness and flexibility into the entire network.
TECHNICAL DEFINITION
Supply Chain Resilience refers to the capacity of a supply chain network to anticipate, absorb, adapt to, and recover from disruptions (e.g., natural disasters, geopolitical events, cyberattacks) while maintaining continuity of operations and strategic objectives.
BACKGROUND
Supply chain resilience is "the capacity of a supply chain to persist, adapt, or transform in the face of change".
