Supply chain success depends on visibility into the entire supplier base.

Today’s global supply chains can’t withstand the torrent of new regulations, geopolitical strife and general uncertainty without total visibility of suppliers at every stage. Unfortunately, relatively few can claim that prowess — some can’t even ensure due diligence over tier 1 suppliers, let alone the cascading sub-tiers, all the way to the raw-materials stage. On this episode, we discuss visibility and compliance with Jon Hancock, chief executive officer of Sedex, a platform for managing ethical and sustainable supply chains. We learn where the visibility gaps and blinds spots are, who in the organization should be responsible for overseeing the entire supply base, and how technology can help. It all comes down to the crucial question: What does risk-based due diligence in supply chains really look like? Hosted by Bob Bowman, Editor-in-Chief of SupplyChainBrain.
