The report highlights the challenges faced by procurement organizations and supply chain functions after the pandemic. It mentions that JIT supply chains, which were once considered resilient, demonstrated a significant lack of resilience when hit by disruptive events.

The report suggests that companies need to adopt a roadmap strategy to target supply chain disruptions and return to a new normal.
