So what do we calculate?
Production capacity
Inventory at various stages
Raw Materials Manufacturing Packaging Distribution
Consider the loss of production from a particular Manufacturing site.
Several types of risk event may lead to this outcome. Some insurable (e.g. fire, flood etc) some non insurable (Strike,
Government restrictions etc).
1. Reduction of production capacity (e.g. if it is the only site -> 0%, if there are multiple sites we assume the others can go to maximum capacity which may make up some of the capacity shortfall)
2. Recovery time for the site
3. The supply chain can still operate for a certain length of time depending on the inventory in the downstream chain
4. The following components give us a critical buffer time ( i.e. how long we can keep going before BI really starts): the stock buffer time (from 3), the production achieved in this buffer time (from 1)
5. Business Interruption occurs if recovery time (from 2) is larger than the Critical Outage Time (from 4)

Consider the loss of production from a particular supplier.
1. There is a certain amount of inventory at the Manufacturing site
2. Recovery time to find an alternative supplier – this may be small if there are other suppliers available
3. The supply chain can still operate for a certain length of time depending on the inventory in the downstream chain
4. The following components give us a possible outage time is : the inventory buffer time (from 1), the recovery time (from 2)
5. Business Interruption occurs if possible outage time (from 4) exceeds the critical buffer time for the Manufacturing site

Consider the loss of a Distribution Centre site.
1. Reduction of production capacity – may be zero if at the end of the chain and if we can meet demand by directly shipping from production
2. Recovery time for the site
3. The supply chain can still operate at full production capacity
4. The following components give us a critical buffer time ( i.e. how long we can keep going before BI really starts): the time to put in place alternative logistics arrangements
5. Business Interruption occurs if recovery time (from 2) is larger than the Critical Outage Time (from 4)

Production cost delta – i.e. difference in cost of production given a
BI event
Additional transport costs – arising from supplying from stock
Shortfall production costs – production costs to bring stock up to pre BI event level
Loss profit costs – loss of profit when demand cannot be met

A production model has been developed for white goods manufacture across the four European sites.
Notable features include:
• A production optimiser that gives the minimum cost production distribution based on manufacture and transportation costs
• Optimiser works between minimum and maximum levels of production at sites
• Variable costs due to increased shift work
• Business interruption exposures based upon a demand profile across a year
• Consideration of stock levels on actual BI numbers

Summary – Some ideas to increase Supply Chain resilience
Companies may accept different supply chain risks depending on the stage of the production lifecycle
Supply Chain risks are closely related to business interruption and product recall risks.
Resilience depends on having alternatives and creativity. Companies need to make time to nurture this.
A multi discipline approach is required to address supply chain risk. including Procurement,
Production, Logistics, Insurance, Loss Control, Legal, Finance, Planning etc.
A simple approach for resilience is based upon the following:
– Preparedness
– Response
– Recovery
– Strategy
Create a model to allow you to test scenarios
Test your assumptions on the response to ‘what ifs’ particularly;
– Contractual arrangements
– Business Continuity Management
– What is possible
Know your inventory strategy
Be clear on trends
– when are they going to be reviewed?
Know what your organisation is comfortable with
