Even if the shipping route stops, the cargo won't stop. Design alternative routes and stockpiles during normal times.
The shortage of containers due to infectious diseases, grounding in the Suez Canal, drought in the Panama Canal, and detours caused by the situation in the Red Sea are examples of the disruptions in international logistics that occur almost every year. This service is designed to manage the risks of international logistics as an ever-present reality and to support the establishment of a resilient system against such disruptions. We provide step-by-step assistance, including impact assessments for major transport routes, pre-design of alternative routes and costs, building relationships with multiple logistics providers, visualizing transportation, reviewing inventory standards that account for disruptions, and formalizing rules for anomaly detection and switching decisions. We offer a logistics risk diagnosis (free of charge). Please feel free to contact us if you are interested.
