Supply Chain Management
Manufacturing companies are struggling to catch up with surging demand as the global economy begins to recover from the pandemic-related impacts on production across all industries. Facing widespread disruption of supply chains due to depleted inventories, skyrocketing transportation costs, and staffing shortages, companies have been forced to reevaluate their increasingly complex and often international supply chains. Contracts are being renegotiated, new supplier relationships are being formed, and just-in-time manufacturing models are being reconsidered. To assist our clients with these complex and critical issues, our lawyers from various practice areas come together to provide a holistic assessment of our clients’ supply chain risks, and develop strategies for preventing, responding to, and recovering from disruptions. We are pleased to provide a variety of thought leadership and resources to help keep you up to date on the latest supply chain trends and concerns. Check back often as we update this series regularly.
