“Senior stakeholders within many companies would agree
that managing reputational risk is of critical importance. The
supply chain represents one of the greatest exposures for
reputational risk – because if one of your suppliers stumble,
it quickly can impact your brand,” Henry Ristuccia, Deloitte
Global Leader. Source: Kennedy Consulting Research & Advisory.

Risk Management Model & Supply Chain?
How Does It Work?
The risk management model helps the organization to better structure its process in
order to reduce costs and losses in the supply chain that result from theft,
assaults, and other illegal activities. The model is about the reduction of risk due
to those activities

What is it?
A systematic approach to organize and automate risk management process
in the supply chain enabling:
– Visualization and optimization of portfolio of routes
– Standardization of business practices throughout the value chain
How the Model
Works

Supply chain managers are asked to think critically about each route: (a)
what does it look like (who is involved, where, when, etc.)? (b) what happens
on that route? (c) what risks are associated with each route?

The determination of risk must be done according to an agreed-upon
methodology: managers must think about the types of risks, the impact of
certain risks, and so on

The supply chain picture that emerges allows managers to think more
creatively about investments and costs allocations across the supply5
chain: what requires attention and why?
Risk Management Model
More About the Model

Risk events across the globe can now have profound disruptive effects on a
company’s operations
Lower safety stocks and increased timing and logistics complexity have
introduced new risks into operations
Outsourcing business activities can hamper a company’s ability to manage
disruptions within a multi-tiered supplier network
Consolidation reduces sourcing flexibility and can limit capacity to respond
to demand fluctuation or crisis events
Centralization can make companies increasingly susceptible to significant
disruption by a single-site event

In parallel, external customer, macroeconomic, and societal trends have
increased pressure on supply chain operations
Many of these trends have increased in intensity in the last decade

manufacturing information may be updated to also contain
information about the distributor.
Smart Cards contain shipping and customer information.
•
Competence in risk management in terms
of security and compliance
•
•
RFID systems demand information be accurate and timely
Information can be used by governments to determine the
integrity of transactions and supply chain.

Example: RFID Reduces Supply Chain Risk in
Emerging Markets
Integrity
Authenticity
Specificity
 Reduce the risk of counterfeit products entering
the supply chain.
 Overseas manufacturing functions can be
monitored for quality control by confirming that
each step of the assembly line was completed.
Compliance
Location
 Immunizations and other medication
are tracked to ensure shipment is
stored in required government
regulated environment to reduce
spoilage and ensure delivery to
patients.
 Aid workers are provided with real
time visibility at different points of
the supply chain to manage
shortages in immunizations,
mosquito netting, water, food, ect.
 International aid agencies gain
reliance that donations and
assistance is delivered to the
intended beneficiary.
 Inventory is tracked for accurate
financial reporting and tax
implications.

Applications in AIT
Case Study: Improving Patient Safety in Pakistan’s
Hospitals
Problem
Poor hospital patient safety protocols
Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patients in low and middle income countries (LMIC) are two times more likely
to get catheter-associated urinary tract infections and four times more likely to develop ventilatorassociated pneumonia than their counterparts in high income countries. Mortality in LMIC is between
three to nine times higher due to elevated rates of central line-associated bloodstream infections.
Solution
Mobile health solutions
Using radio frequency identification (RFID) tags on patient identification wristbands, health workers can
access forms, procedure protocols, and important patient information by simply tapping the wristband
with a cell phone. Patients’ information is updated in real time from central server, health workers can
operate with the most up-to date understanding of patients’ condition and keep electronic records of
patient safety events.

Industry mandates and direct guidelines
outlining specific labeling requirements:
• Wal-Mart and other global retailers such as Target and BestBuy are
mandating that suppliers apply RFID tags to all pallets and cases,
phasing in the technologies
• The U.S. Department of Defense, which runs what is considered the
world’s largest and longest supply chain with more than 60,000
suppliers, has mandated a phased-in approach for RFID labeling to its
suppliers
• The U.S. FDA (Food and Drug Administration) is looking to RFID to
control the nation’s drug supply to ensure quality and reduce
counterfeiting

Thinking Ahead
23
Deloitte has identified a variety of best practices for supply chain risk
management
Sense emerging trends
Focus not just on traditional and known risks. Many companies are over prepared for operational and other
common risks. Leading companies sense emerging drivers that transform into risks over time
Be forward thinking
History can be helpful, but past performance does not necessarily correlate with future success. Prepare by
imbedding predictive thinking to become more forward looking
Look beyond the four
walls
Risks emanate from a multitude of sources. Look beyond the company’s four walls – into the extended value chain,
both upstream and downstream, and into the macro-environment
Be proactive
Be proactive: focus on addressing critical vulnerabilities that expose important nodes within the supply chain to
risks as a means of managing risk
Prioritize
Prioritize and build resilience where it matters. Understand the critical, high-value nodes throughout the supply
chain – even beyond Tier 1 suppliers
AIT - Measure and monitor
AIT - Quantify through
analytics
Measure resilience and continuously monitor and reassess. Establish feedback loops to ensure that observations
inform resilience strategy planning and implementation
Quantify the risk impacts using advanced analytics and simulation capabilities. Qualitative techniques, while
valuable for certain applications, limit the insights into the magnitude of risks
Test the worst case
Test worst case scenarios as a means to understand performance, especially in the instance of low-probability,
high-impact “black swan” risk events
Think beyond BCP
Integrated supply chain risk management goes beyond site and node level business continuity planning. While
specific node-level operational plans are important, effective risk management is more holistic

Benefits of the Model Focus
The model helps managers (a) document the modus operandi in the supply chain, (b)
reduce variability of supply chain losses, (c) reduce cost of supply chain losses. It also
has a number of additional benefits, which come with some caveats:
Benefits
Limitations
Consequences

It helps to structure and document


It is not an artificial intelligence
system

It is a support tool for decision
making

It allows to generate predictions
from criteria applicable for most
cases

It does not consider individual
exceptions of the routes and
mistakes on the execution of the
procedures

It does not aim at anticipate the
location of every event in supply
chain

It helps to standardize potential
actions to be taken in all routes

It is not a procedure handbook
It does not replace the specific local
knowledge of the people

Facilitate and speed up security
resource allocation decisions
among different routes
It allows managers to have a global
view of the portfolio of routes

It does not aim to be exhaustive
about route knowledge

Make communication inside the

Trends and Best Practices
Vision (Con’t)
E-Pedigree and RFID
Increasing safety issues such as counterfeiting and theft has alerted regulatory
organizations other and drug stakeholders to implement a safety system that enables
tracking and tracing across the entire supply chain.
Data Management and Systems
Data management and systems are critical components in improving collaboration
between stakeholders, as well as to achieve optimal internal efficiency.
Strategic Collaboration and Vision
The market will evolve towards strategic alliances rather than tactical operational
relationships in the perspective of streamlining the supply chain, and increasing
visibility and customer service. This factor will become increasingly important with the
continued acquisition and consolidation of outsourcing services.

Trends and Best Practices
E-Pedigree and RFID
E-Pedigree
 RFID tags enables tracking and tracing of drugs
all the way through the supply chain
 An answer to increasing counterfeit drugs and
theft
 FDA, EU, and other major regulatory agencies
are stepping up the efforts to implement EPedigree
 Prior to receiving, person accepting products in
to available inventory, pedigree check,
completeness and authenticity is validated
 E-Pedigree can tell if a product is authentic
RFID
RFID has the ability to increase security dramatically
by:
 Patient Identification
 Medication Management
 Tracking of Medication
 Error reduction
 Location of staff, drugs, and equipment
 Managing controlled substances, pathogens,
and other materials that pose a public health
risk
 Collaboration software publishes event data at
each step in the supply chain
Even though the e-pedigree regulation has not been yet implemented, this key trend
will greatly affect pharmaceutical distribution in the next 5 to 10 years. Your Supply
Chain needs to be flexible and ready for the implementation of this upcoming
standard.
