Abstract

Global supply chains have faced unprecedented disruptions in recent years due to events such as the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical tensions, and climate change. This paper explores how predictive analytics and adaptive risk-based sourcing can be leveraged to enhance supply chain resilience. By analyzing historical trends, applying machine learning models, and dynamically adjusting sourcing strategies based on real-time risk assessments, organizations can proactively mitigate disruptions. A literature review identifies key models and case studies from before 2022, highlighting effective practices and gaps in current methodologies
