APICS Supply Chain Council
Overview: This report examines the role that supply chain risk management plays in organizations and how risk management will evolve. The overall goal of this supply chain risk survey was to determine current real-world practices in supply chain risk among APICS members and customers.
More than 9,000 professionals were invited to participate in the survey, which took place from June through July 2011. The survey results reflect an approximate 6 percent margin of error at a 95 percent confidence level.
This report was developed by APICS Supply Chain Council, an organization that advances supply chain and operations management and innovation through research, education and publications. APICS SCC maintains the Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR) model, the supply chain management community’s most widely accepted framework for evaluating and comparing supply chain activities and performance.
