As supply chains become increasingly complex, risks increase in number and severity. Identifying and managing risk, therefore, becomes more difficult. The realities of today’s global market mean organizations in Quality critical industries face many different kinds of risks — from material disruptions and production / tooling capabilities, to human capital capabilities and natural disasters.
Organizations need to anticipate and mitigate risks throughout their supply chain to retain customer confidence and remain compliant with industry-specific standards such as AS9100. At Unitek Technical Services, we offer supply chain risk management service solutions to help OEMs in technical industries prevent disruption and improve supply chain reliability.
Proactive Risk Mitigation for a Resilient Supply Chain
Supply chain risk management helps organizations understand their supply chain risks, limit the chances of those risks materializing and minimize their impact if they do occur. Our effective supply chain risk management support services identify risks, analyze them and monitor them over time. As a result, organizations that practice supply chain risk management can respond to known and unknown hazards with speed and flexibility.
Our Supply Chain Risk Management Services
Although risk management is essential for any organization, managing supply chain risk in Quality critical industries can require time and resources you don’t have to spare, especially as more components are manufactured in multiple locations around the world.
Acting as an extension of your organization, our supply chain risk management services can develop and implement a solution which dovetails with your operational goals. To provide the most accurate information about your suppliers’ activities, we conduct thorough on-site supplier risk assessments as needed, both pre- and post-award.
When we partner with your organization, you can rely on us to help with the following tasks:
- Risk assessment: We identify risks, analyze their severity and inform key stakeholders of their possibility.
- Risk mitigation: Our team can recommend and implement strategies for minimizing your supply chain’s most dangerous risks, such as assigning risk management responsibilities to appropriate teams or departments.
- Ongoing monitoring: We can help develop criteria used to determine which risks to mitigate and which to accept and provide continuous monitoring of key performance indicators to ensure ongoing risk management effectiveness.
If you already have a risk mitigation program, we can help you improve it.
