Product Life Cycle Supply Chain Risk Diagnostic
The TRP Product Life Cycle Supply Chain Risk Diagnostic © is a data and analytics driven process to comprehensively assess and measure risk throughout the life of a high-value product supply chain (e.g., high margin product category, blockbuster drug).
The diagnostic contains: (1) a comprehensive mapping of supply chain activities including sub-activities, processes and resources (human capital, digital and physical assets, and third party relationships), (2) a threat analysis, (3) a vulnerability assessment of the supply chain architecture (i.e., inventory, capacity) and risk and performance trade-off analysis, (4) impact quantification and prioritization, and (5) action-oriented recommendations.

Case Studies
Striking the Balance: Risk and Performance Optimization
Global manufacturer and distributor of precision engineered personal products.
A “RISK and PERFORMANCE TRADE-OFF” analysis showed that the benefit achieved through inventory diversification far exceeded the carrying costs of a second distribution center and additional inventory. By modeling various levers (e.g. safety stock, repurposing product) the client was able to accelerate recovery from 56 to 17 weeks, resulting in a reduction in revenue exposure of $170 million.
Continuous Product Life Cycle Risk Analysis and Monitoring
Global pharmaceutical company.
Designed and deployed systems and processes to:
- Assure patients, providers, suppliers, and distribution partners of drug supply during disruptive times (secure the drug supply chain).
- Minimize profitability exposure that arise from a disruptive event (e.g., operational impact and expense, market displacement exposure).
- Expedite resilience activities and limit drug availability exposure that arise from a disruptive event by providing timely, relevant, and accurate resource exposure intelligence (data model).
- Optimize resilience; risk and performance by analyzing trade-offs (i.e. resilience versus efficiency).
- Support critical decision making by providing a deeper understanding of uncertainty in the drug supply chain. Convert uncertainty into risk for critical decision making by using data, analytics, methods, and processes.
- Enhance critical event management and communications capabilities while raising broader awareness to the implications and consequences of a disruptive event. Increase awareness to critical event management planning, supply chain risk, event response, crisis communications, and overall resilience.
