Your assignment due at the end of week 6 focuses on supply chain mapping. This exercise enables the organization to understand the strengths and weaknesses of its supply chain. Our text discusses a he

301 Appendix: The Supply Chain Risk Assessment Tool As .we .mentioned .in.Chapter 12, .as.the .concept .of.supply .chain .risk .man - agement .began .to.solidify .into .a.body .of.knowledge .and .then .courseware, . within .the .framework .of.an .enterprise- . wide .risk .management .approach . (ERM), .several .major .tenets .developed .into .a.set .of.questions- .of- .discovery . regarding .the .maturity .of.the .supply .chain. .As .these .supply .chain .tenets . began .to.solidify, .a.mechanism .to.review, .evaluate, .and .position .a.compa - ny’s .maturity .in.supply .chain .excellence .and .design .took .shape .in.terms .of. a.“spider .diagram” .or.heat .map .profiling .a.company’s .supply .chain .matu - rity, .which .then .relates .implicitly .to.the .risk .associated .with .that .maturity. . The .heat .map .is.a.set .of.about .100 .questions- .of- .discovery .across .10 .tenets . of.an .end- .to- .end .supply .chain .environment . A.graphical .illustration .of. the .heat .map .appeared .in.Chapter  2. .The .answers .to.these .questions- .of- . discovery .provide .a.first- .of- .a-kind .glimpse .into .a.company’s .supply .chain . risk. .The .spider .diagram, .featured .in.Figure .A.1, .profiles .color- .coded .lev - els .of.risk .that .correspond .to.high, .medium, .and .low .risk. hOW yO u Might utilize the tOO l The .heat .map .provides, .perhaps .for .the .first .time, .a.glimpse .into .a.com - pany’s .risk .within .their .entire .supply .chain. .As .shown .in.Figure .A.1, .the . tenets .are .leader .ship, .balance .scorecards, .sales .and .operations .planning . (S&OP) .processes, .IT .systems, .supply .chain .techniques, .demand .man - agement, .industry .practices, .manufacturing, .supply .base, .and .logistics. . The .tool .is.an .awareness .technique .to.begin .the .dialogue .covering .supply . chain .risk. .This .figure .has .an .outer .ring .(a.red .ring .when .using .color- . coded .systems), .which .means .any .answer .outside .the .red .ring .equates .to. a.very .high .risk. .Any .answer .between .the .red .ring .and .the .yellow .ring . (again, .in.color- .coded .systems) .equates .to.a.moderate .risk. .And .any .result . inside .the .yellow .ring .implies .a.lower .risk. .We .placed .an .actual .set .of.

Appendix: The Supply Chain Risk Assessment Tool   •  303 scores .from .an .oil .and .gas .company .headquartered .in.Asia. .The .reason . the .tool .resonates .is.that .many .companies .still .have .a.tremendous .amount . of.suboptimization .within .organizational .silos .and .a.lack .of.supply . chain .visibility. The .heat .map .tool .is.also .utilized .during .supply .chain .risk .assessment . engagements .with .companies. .The .tool .is.used .at.the .beginning .of.an . engagement .to.establish .an .agreed- .upon .enterprise .picture .of.the .com - pany’s .supply .chain .and .risks .through .questions- .of- .discovery .answered . by .leaders .from .various .disciplines. .Next, .a.detailed .risk .assessment .for . each .node .within .the .supply .chain .is.exercised .with .the .culmination .of.a. final .review .of.the .supply .chain .risks .using .the .heat .map .tool. Walking th RO ugh the Que Sti O nS- O f- diSCOV eRy As .mentioned, .there .are .about .100 .questions .inside .the .tool. .The .ques - tions .are .indicative .of.supply .chain .best- .in- .class .practices .from .more .than . 25 years .of.operational .executive .experience .and .15 years .of.executive .sup - ply .chain .consulting .around .the .globe. .Our .basic .premise, .reinforced .by . many .research .organizations .and .top- .tier .consulting .companies, .is.that .as. the .supply .chain .becomes .more .mature, .risk .to.the .organization .is.dimin - ished. .Remember, .risk .is.not .eliminated, .but .rather .reduced. As .you .answer .the .questions, .the .tool .will .calculate .a.rating .within .the . spider .diagram .at.the .bottom .right .end .tab .of.the .spreadsheet. .When .com - pleted, .the .user .will .have .a.full- .picture .image .of.inherent .risks .throughout . an .entire .supply .chain. .The .risk .spider .diagram .can .be .used .to.begin .or. continue .the .supply .chain .risk .dialogue. hOW t O aCC eSS the tOO l As .a.book .owner .and .professional .interested .in.SCRM, .you .will .have .access . to.the .supply .chain .risk .assessment .tool, .at.no .cost, .for .45 days .after .your . initial .download. .To .access .the .tool .follow .the .instructions .in.Figure .A.2.
