Risk has become an active part of every procurement function and a vital skill set to support the safe and reliable delivery of products and services to the organization. We need to stop rigid cost driven monoculture, where cost savings drive all decisions.
This program will cover risk types including Financial, Cyber, Operational, Geographic, Reputational and Regulatory. The need for awareness and prevention as well as skills to generate remediation, reporting and governance. The strategy to create a priority driven risk management program which will include the use of third party risk management, suppliers, strong contract governance and robust sourcing.
The largest day to day risk for a company is inferior quality. The best remediation is a strong procurement function. It is imperative that the procurement team collaborates with internal teams such as Risk, Audit, Finance and Engineering, and external teams including suppliers and category experts to develop a proactive risk mitigation solution.
The department needs to have an expert lead this effort and create a framework for the team to follow. This includes risk modelling, predictive versus reactive activity, and understanding of sustainability and being anti-fragile. This can include the full restructuring of the supply chain – a major undertaking for any organization.
