Supply Chain Risk Management Plans: Current Practice and Application An Examination of Risk Management Plans as Implemented and Plan Performance During the Natural Experiment of October 2013
January 2014
QUESTIONS? Paul Shik Lee, Jr.
Director Research
Institute for Supply Management
Sixty percent of respondents work at a firm with a supply chain risk management plan in place • Most manufacturing firms and firms with larger spend have plans • At the time of the survey, an additional 11 percent were developing a plan
Tier 1 and Tier 2 are commonly well covered supplier tiers • Tier 3 is much less covered than the tiers above it, even less at Tier 4 The five plan components most likely to be included in a risk management plan are: • Find alternate suppliers • Talks with critical suppliers • Qualifying more suppliers • Buying extra supplies • Talks with major suppliers
Typical Risk Management Plans include five plan components • Less “sophisticated” plans (i.e., plans with five or fewer components) were
more likely to adopt an “inward facing” perspective on risk management Few firms are motivated to create or update a risk management plan by the end of first quarter, 2014. • More than 80 percent of respondents stated that their firm is adopting a “wait
and see” position

The government shutdown of October 2013 was an opportunity for a few firms to test their supply chain risk management plan • However, 85 percent of respondent’s firms did not activate their plans • Only 16 percent of respondent’s firms were impacted (for better or worse)
Of firms that were negatively impacted, 53 percent were only affected by two or three specific issues The three issues that were reported most often were: • Decreased sales • Inability to access government data • Inability to access government reports
Of those that activated their plans, 85 percent report that they performed well • A plurality (45%) report that their plan performed well without reservation • A large minority (40%) reported that their plan “Performed well/missed minor
risks.” Non-manufacturing and smaller firms returned to normal operations most quickly • Sixty-nine percent of non-manufacturing firms recovered within two weeks • Sixty-nine percent of firms with $250 million or less in annual spend
recovered within one or two weeks

Objectives and Background • This study is meant to provide a snapshot of the prevalence and use of
supply chain risk management plans • Additionally, we seek to describe the breadth (within tier) and depth
(between tiers) of supplier coverage • Further, from a standard plate of risk management strategies, firms were
asked to indicate which components they included in their plans • This study was fielded folding the federal government shutdown of
October 2013. This event tested the risk management plans of a number of firms
• Respondents were asked about their firm’s response to the shutdown
and how their risk management plan performed, if applicable • We characterize the firm’s reactions and post-event actions

Methodology • Data collection for the survey began on November 4, 2013, and
concluded on November 19
• The sample included a net 15,015 randomly drawn manager-level and above customers of ISM
• The final result for data collection was 505 usable responses, for an overall response rate of 3.36 percent
• Differences and comparisons that are termed “significant” have p < 0.05,
with α = 0.05 • With few exceptions, data labels for proportions 4% or smaller are not
shown

Q: “Comparing manufacturing firms with non-‐manufacturing firms, how does [BLANK] rank on their lists of plan components?” A: “While the ranks of the top eight components don’t change, compared to non-‐manufacturers, manufacturing firms included “Ramping up produc1on” more oQen. In fact, non-‐manufacturers included five other components more oQen than “Ramping up produc1on.”

Respondent Characteristics • The sample comprises data from both manufacturing and non-
manufacturing firms • The firms employing respondents are larger than would be found in a
representative sampling of United States companies • However, for the purposes of this study, the bias towards larger
firms is appropriate • A strong majority of respondents are employed in a procurement or
supply chain function • A majority of respondents report that their employer has a supply chain
risk management plan in place

Characteristics of Supply Chain Risk Management Plans • Coverage of first and second supplier tiers is fairly substantial
• Ninety-seven percent of firms cover at least their critical first tier suppliers
• Eighty-eight percent of firms cover at least their critical second tier suppliers
• The “Big Five” plan components most likely to be included in a risk
management plan are: • Find alternate suppliers • Talks with critical suppliers • Qualifying more suppliers • Buying extra supplies • Talks with major suppliers
• While non-manufacturers have broader coverage of their suppliers at
each tier, manufacturers are more aggressive in including a wider array of plan components
• Segmenting firms by count of plan components (a proxy for
“sophistication”) reveals stark differences in coverage and approach

Not Surprisingly, Firms Are Focused on First and Second Tier Suppliers • More than one-half (59%) of firms address all suppliers or all major
suppliers in their plan • It is encouraging to see that firms see value in depth of coverage as well
as breadth: 47 percent of respondents with fourth tier visibility include at least critical suppliers from that level in their plan

Strong Coverage of Tier 2 is Associated With: • Strong coverage of Tier 1 suppliers; but even firms that cover fewer Tier
2 suppliers cover Tier 1 suppliers fairly well • Significantly stronger coverage of Tier 3 suppliers (all levels) and Tier 4
suppliers (proportions covering all suppliers and covering any suppliers) as compared to firms with less coverage of Tier 2 suppliers

Comparing Plans By “Sophistication” Reveals a Large Gap • Less sophisticated firms were more likely to focus inward by buying
more supplies, talking with critical clients, and ramping up production • More sophisticated firms looked outward by qualifying more suppliers,
communicating with major suppliers, and assisting critical suppliers

Most Firms Are Taking An “Update As Needed” Position Going Forward • Most likely to NOT revisit the idea of a plan or update their plan until “when/if
deemed necessary” were firms that don’t have a plan and those that weren’t impacted by the natural experiment.
• Firms that were negatively impacted were much more likely to review their plans within six months

Event Background • The fiscal year of the federal government begins on October 1 of each
calendar year • The budget for fiscal year 2010 was the last budget signed into law prior
to the government shutdown of October, 2013 • Since 2010, the government has been funded by a series of
stopgap measures called continuing resolutions • Since August, 2013, the lack of a budget or continuing resolution to fund
full operation of the US federal government was an important story • Without a budget or another continuing resolution, non-essential
federal government services would be suspended on October 1, 2013
• Many so-called “non-essential” services are important or critical for many US businesses
• As of midnight, October 1, 2013, no federal budget or continuing
resolution was in place, so the federal government suspended all non-essential services

access government data and/or reports, and lack of government inspections--only decreased sales was frequently and strongly impactful

Effect of Supply Chain Impact on Firm Performance(n=48)
Supply Chain Impacts Filter Through to Company Performance • Fifty-two percent of respondents report that their firm’s performance will
be somewhat impaired by the effects of the shutdown • Company performance can be sensitive to supply chain shocks
• Nearly one-half of these firms (25 percent overall) project that impairment will be the result of a “small” supply chain impact

Being Negatively Impacted Could be Related to Coverage of Lower Tiers • At the first tier, breadth of supplier coverage is similar between impacted
and not impacted firms • It appears that impacted firms may pay reasonable attention to their
second tier suppliers • For third and lower tiers, impacted firms exhibit thinner coverage
