4:05 PM Keynote Panel: Make Sure To Check Your Blind Spots: Exposing Risk Across Tier 2 & 3 Suppliers

Over the years, many strategic sourcing functions have become too confident in their Tier 1 supplier relationships while losing visibility into their deeper supplier base. In today's volatile environment, critical risks can often originate deeper in the supply chain, including with Tier 2 and Tier 3 suppliers that many teams struggle to track. This panel will explore how to uncover hidden risks earlier and use new approaches to improve visibility before they become a critical issue. 

Key takeaways:  
  • How to recognize risk signals across Tier 2 & 3 suppliers 
  • Utilizing agentic AI to gain a clearer picture into your full supply network 
  • Developing systems and guidelines to tackle emerging disruptions 
  • Keeping a level head when disruptions occur
