David Simchi-Levi of MIT presents: From Pandemic Disruption to Global Supply Chain Recovery: The rapid spread of the COVID-19 virus is already having a huge impact on the global economy, which is rippling around the world via the long supply chains of major industries.

Specifically, we will introduce concepts and methods that supply chain executives can use to (i) identify critical suppliers; (ii) assess the impact of these suppliers on their business; (iii) develop a recovery plan that secures capacity and addresses business challenges.

Twenty years ago, few people would have been able to imagine the energy landscape of today. In 2005, US oil production, after a long decline, had fallen to its lowest levels in decades, and few experts thought that would change.
In the case of upgrading electrical and broadband infrastructure, new analysis from the University of Massachusetts Amherst reveals {that a} “dig once” strategy is almost 40% more economical than changing them individually.
