Developing a long term strategy to shift or diversify global supply chains can position manufacturers for growth and resiliency.

Global manufacturing supply chains have been hit on multiple fronts, with production across the globe severely impacted by full shut-downs coupled with disrupted distribution channels from border closures, loss of air cargo capacity, and even driver shortages. 

Global business support measures have been put in place by various jurisdictions in response to the sharp downturn resulting from the COVID-19 crisis. Understanding the key issues global manufacturers are facing, as well as designing and implementing a strategic action plan can help prepare you to survive and ultimately outperform competitors. 

The purpose of this document is to broadly analyze the impact of these measures and other planning opportunities on global manufacturing and supply chain sectors, two of the most affected by the COVID-19 crisis.
