Introduction

Modern supply chains operate as complex, interconnected systems that are highly vulnerable to disruption, uncertainty, and external shocks. Factors such as globalisation, geopolitical instability, demand variability, and technological dependency have significantly increased the importance of structured supply chain risk management.

The Supply Chain Risk Management training course provides a comprehensive approach to identifying, analysing, and mitigating risks across supply chain networks. It focuses on understanding how disruptions propagate through systems and how organisations can design resilient and adaptive supply chain structures.

Participants are introduced to advanced simulation techniques and modelling tools that support evidence-based decision-making. The training course emphasises both operational and disruptive risk management, enabling organisations to improve visibility, strengthen responsiveness, and build long-term resilience.

Key focus areas include:

Key Learning Outcomes

At the end of this Supply Chain Risk Management training course, participants will be able to:

Training Methodology

This training course uses a highly practical, hands-on approach supported by simulation exercises and real-world modelling scenarios. Participants work with dynamic simulation tools such as AnyLogic and anyLogistix to build, test, and analyse supply chain models.

Through guided exercises and industry-based case studies, participants explore risk propagation, disruption scenarios, and recovery strategies. The methodology emphasises experiential learning, enabling delegates to apply simulation outputs to real operational challenges.
