Department Of Commerce NIST Case Study Publication

This case study publication, spearheaded by the U.S. Resiliency Project, provides a brief survey of historical or “traditional” supply chain risk management challenges and solutions. It then provides an overview of new technology solutions and opportunities for supporting resilience as well as security – both cyber and physical. It concludes with a discussion on the ROI of supply chain risk management program investments.
