Supply chain resilience is crucial as third-party risk management failures can significantly impact businesses.

Abstract

When one part of this network is exposed to risk, all parts are vulnerable to disruption. The growing complexity of these connections is driving a need for a deeper understanding of how supply chains operate most efficiently while managing risk. According to almost half of the respondents to Deloitte’s 2020 third-party risk management global survey, the financial impact on them of a failure by a third-party or subcontractor has at least doubled over the past five years. One in five respondents believe the financial impact has multiplied tenfold.1
