Supply Chain Risk Management:
Vulnerability and Resilience in Logistics by Donald Waters (Hardcover - Nov 1, 2007) – Illustrated. Kogan
Page (November 1, 2007).
There is constant pressure on managers to
improve the efficiency of their supply chains, allowing materials to move quickly and at
low cost. This pressure has encouraged a stream of new initiatives and methods, but these
new methods also increase the supply chain's vulnerability to disruptions. By removing the
slack that used to protect supply chains from unforeseen events, they create inflexible
chains where even a small, unexpected event can bring everything to a standstill. Information
