New Supply Chain Risk Survey

Global risk advisers, Aon and strategic business partner, State of Flux, have published the 2009 Risk in 21st Century Supply Chain survey, in which 75% of respondents site financial failure as the greatest risk to their supply chain. Other key risks identified by 43% of firms are physical damage at a supplier’s facility and 29% highlight data security.

In the survey businesses acknowledge that risk management is vital for their survival. A number of drivers were recognized for supply chain risk management including corporate governance, performance improvement and the current credit situation, which was noted by 30% of firms.
