Catastrophes, such as the tsunamis and floods, have disrupted major industries and organizations from automobiles to technology, to travel, to shipments. Natural disasters in the last decade or so have exposed critical weaknesses in Supply Chain mechanisms around the globe.

Management in most cases is aware of its responsibility to prevent their Supply Chains from getting disrupted by ensuring measures such as keeping enhanced stocks, improving capacity at discrete facilities, and choosing multiple sources. But these measures have a negative effect on Supply Chain cost efficiencies.

This deck provides a detailed overview of the 2 Supply Chain Containment Strategies. These strategies limit the impact of disruption through disasters to just a portion of the Supply Chain.

1. Supply Chain Segmentation
2. Supply Chain Regionalization

Supply Chain Segmentation and Regionalization assist in "de-risking" the overall Supply Chain of an organization. The presentation also deliberates on centralized versus decentralized Supply Chains.

The slide deck also includes some slide templates for you to use in your own business presentations.
