Supply Chain Disruption – Thematic Research
Powered by
All the vital news, analysis, and commentary curated by our industry experts.
The main aim of supply chain management is resilience, transparency, and optimization. Streamlining and innovating supply chains through digitalization and automating processes can help overcome supply chain disruptions without significantly impacting margins and prices.
Up until 2020, supply chains were incredibly resilient and efficient. Everything was delivered seamlessly, on time, and at a low cost—to the benefit of companies and consumers. As such, few people were focused on them. According to GlobalData’s Social Media Analytics, supply chains were mentioned on Reddit and Twitter only 1,908 times in 2019.
However, Supply chain vulnerabilities have been exposed by several recent events, including COVID-19, the semiconductor shortage, and the Ukraine war. Supply chain disruption is the new normal. In 2021, social media mentions of supply chains reached 25,636, a thirteen-fold increase from 2019. The world order that enabled globalization and those resilient, efficient supply chains is splintering. A new order of de-globalization will replace it.
The gupply chain disruption market thematic research report identifies the causes of supply chain disruption. The report provides actionable insights into how they can be re-engineered to withstand these events. The report also analyzes the supply chains of various industries and the innovations made to streamline SCM processes.

Supply Chain Disruption – Core Routes and Respective Choke Points
Core routes support the most important commercial shipping flows that service major markets, and secondary routes are mostly connectors between smaller markets. Choke points are specific locations that play a strategic role in supply chain networks due to geography, geopolitics, and trade flows. They can be classified into two main categories: primary choke points and secondary choke points.

Supply Chain Management (SCM) – Key Solutions
The key solutions to overcome supply chain disruptions are advanced data analytics, alternative energy sources, digital twins, factory floor digitalization, reshoring, nearshoring, and friendshoring, recycling, social media, and synthetics.
Advanced data analytics: Key technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), internet of things (IoT), and blockchain among others can provide insights into the supply chain health and performance of companies.
Alternative energy sources: Local alternative energy sources will reduce reliance on external countries for power.
Digital Twins: Supply chain managers can use digital twins to identify risks early and model solutions after monitoring all aspects of the value chain in real time.
