Today, the supply chain has an established place in the C-suite, and with good reason. Companies' key supply chain relationships involve hundreds of millions of dollars in business. Supply chains today, however, are more global and more lean, which means that they are increasingly stretched, brittle, and thin. Therefore, supply chain contract disputes are more likely to erupt, and when they do, much more is at stake than ever before. This session will discuss the common characteristics of high stakes supply chain disputes. We will discuss how to see high stakes disputes coming, how to mitigate them in real time, and how to manage them. We will discuss the practical aspects of dealing with contentious supply chain relationships from both an operational and a legal standpoint, and will discuss how contract managers can limit their legal spend and achieve the best outcomes.
