Supply Chain Risk Research

MÖBIUS in cooperation with Vlerick Leuven Ghent Management School, is developing an end-to-end approach for dealing with Supply Chain Risks.

The added value of this research project lies in the development of an end-to-end approach in managing Supply Chain Risks. During the project, a novel approach of risk quantification and mitigation strategies will be developed. The simulation of a Supply Chain network to quantify the impact of risks on the P&L.

(Supply Chain) Risks are typically managed using following approach:

Risk identification (Which supply chain risks are relevant for my organisation?)
Risks assessment (How important are they? What is their impact on my profit & loss (P&L) account?)
Risks treatment and mitigation (What am I going to do to deter, avoid or transfer them?)
Evaluation and Monitoring (What is my current supply chain risk liability?)

During the project, knowledge will be built up to help perform those steps.

Some of the deliverables are :

List of Common Supply Chain Risks
Simulation tool for the quantification of the impact on P&L
Risks treatment and mitigation strategies (incl. their impact on P&L)
Evaluation and Monitoring tools
