Abstract: The past few years have highlighted that lean supply chains are both unreliable and lack resiliency; there is no longer any cushion or room for error, and they perform best with predictability. The increased instability caused by major global disruptive events has placed immense pressure on supply chains. Therefore, companies must adjust how their supply chains function. This paper seeks to answer the question: what can be done to increase supply chain resiliency and reliability?
