From Firefighting to Fireproofing
This quarter’s LIDD Insider focuses on supply chain planning and operational resilience. In an era of constant change, staying ahead requires proactive planning to navigate uncertainty and optimize operations. We explore how businesses can move from reactive “firefighting” to a more resilient, “fireproofing” approach.
You’ll find actionable guidance on:
- Proactive Planning and Navigating Uncertainty: Adopt a resilient approach for your operations.
- Planning At The Speed of AI: Understand the evolution of supply chain planning, from historical methods to today’s AI-driven platforms.
- Partner Feature: Kinaxis Maestro™: Learn how Kinaxis helps provide the agility and predictability needed to navigate today’s volatility and disruption.
The Bottom Line
If your business already has a strong operational foundation, now is the time to leverage AI and advanced technologies to achieve more, react faster, and plan smarter. For others, the focus remains on professionalizing planning through fundamental strategies like risk assessment and building centers of excellence. Businesses must invest in strategic planning, thoroughly identify operational risks, and bring in strong leadership with operational expertise to bridge the gap between vision and execution. This proactive approach to planning is not merely a lesson from recent disruptions like COVID-19, and tariffs, but a fundamental playbook for enduring resilience and sustainable growth.
The entire history of supply chain planning underscores a critical truth: shorter planning cycles lead to lower inventory, reduced capital expenditure, and ultimately, better outcomes.
