Abstract

Businesses today are ever more depend on their supply chain partners for goods and services which make up a

significant portion of the solutions they provide to their clients. Correspondingly globalization has introduced the

opportunity to do business with suppliers the world over, allowing greater access to a host of untold products and

services - that can provide a competitive advantage to the OEM, which enables them delivering increased value to

their clients. Nevertheless, a global sourcing strategy has introduced a set of risks well beyond what was typical in

the traditional suppler chain. The question is how does a company engage in global sourcing and yet gain the

benefits while weighing and managing risks. Beyond assessing the risk of a supplier and their supply, there are

opportunities to collaborate and assess a supplier's level of resiliency, and where appropriate engage in actions of

remediation.

RISK is one of the SIX mega-trends impacting enterprises around the world

• Managing market and political uncertainty is more complex than ever

• Accelerating global shifts pose new risks; resiliency/responsiveness differentiate

• Evolution to a holistic view of risk management

IBM Chief Supply Chain Officer Study Identified The Top Five Challenges

Risks, both operational and financial, is the #2 concern of supply chain executives worldwide

Supply chains have become increasingly more global and complex, bringing with them greater challenges and risks

• Japan earthquake / tsunami

• Thailand Flooding

• Hynix China Fire

• Philippines Typhoon

• Thailand State of Emergency/Martial Law

• Ukraine Political Unrest

• Russian Sanctions

• Gaza Bombings

• Manage risks within the extended supply chain based on continuous risk assessment

• Utilize a collaborative and structured approach • Reduce vulnerability, increase resiliency and ensure supply

continuity via mitigation planning

How “Risky” is the Supply Chain ?

Supply chain failures continue to be the top concern for US and Canadian business leaders. …

The CHUBB Multinational Risk Survey finds that

….. Businesses cite supply chain failure as the topconcern. …

……[only] 56% of the companies report having abusiness continuity plan..… The lack of continuity plans … is disturbing

• Real time alerts from External Data Source Provider of specific aspects as events unfolded provided an assessment damage and how quickly supply could be restored

• Based on tool out put, immediately knew number of suppliers in Japan, which categories affected (e.g. commodities, logic, memory) and what tier supplier impacted

• Able to immediately contact suppliers and understand- Extent of damage- Whether in exclusion zone or not- Ability to produce / maintain measure of supply continuity- Supplier contingency plans- Mitigation Actions (e.g. moving manufacturing to alternative locations)

• Can look for supply continuity down through multiple levels of supply chain where IBM has qualification / sourcing relationships with sub tier suppliers - Through use of related tool and process

• 12-24 hour head start in securing supply and implementation of mitigation actions

Predicting Risk with Certainty - The Genesis

March 11, 2011 – Japanese earth quake, tsunami and nuclear reactor melt down

Critical single sourced component sourced with supplier inside the “exclusion zone” – no access to parts/building

- Led to expedited qualification – development, engineering, procurement and suppliers

Sept 4, 2013 – SK Hynix Memory Factory Explosion and Fire

Sep 4, 2013 - A huge fire at an SK Hynix component factory in Wuxi, China, has highlighted supply chain vulnerability.

DON'T PANIC says Hynix, China fab explosion is no big deal

www.theregister.co.uk/.../ dont_panic_says_hynix_

Sep 4, 2013 - Fears that an explosive fire at SK Hynix's Chinese fabs in Wuxi will cause a spike in chip prices are unfounded, says the

company.

Sep 4, 2013 - The Korean press reports that a fire in Hynix's fabrication plants 1 and 2 in China may put DRAM shipments on hold for the

foreseeable future.

Predicting Risk with Certainty

Domain:Risk team receives many reports and updates re. threats (man made and natural) that can impact supply continuity. In spite

of the threat of a supply chain disruption, most do not come to fruition. Taking preemptive actions such as qualifying another

source, pulling inventory and/or moving the business to another supplier, when threatened, and then if the threat does not

materialize, these actions produce a measure of distraction, lost time and wasted effort by the sourcing teams and others.

Concept:Search past/recent past social, political, economic unrest events, including climatic events to determine if they:

a) do come to fruition as forecasted, and if they do,

b) was there an impact to in country commerce, aka disruptions to transportation, roads, airports,

workforce etc.?

Evaluation of data can show what is the likelihood of an event a) coming to fruition (eg disruption) and b) if it does come about

as forecasted, what is the likelihood that supplier’s business will result in interruption of supply and/or services?

Data Sources:Collect and analyze vast array of news reports of social, political, economic unrest events as well as climatic events – over

last x years.

Benefits / Opportunity:Procurement, Engineering and Supplier resources conserved and only expended when situation indicates a high likelihood of

an event materially impacting the supply chain.

Executive Interest and Support

Vice President and Controller –

In response to the IBM Board of Directors Audit Committee Meeting, acknowledged our current work is the

right strategy and vision. “The Data Analytics presentation was very well received by the Audit Committee. I walked

them through our strategy, … and wrapped up by outlining the impact of Analytics on the Enterprise Risk Map. The

Audit Committee was very engaged throughout the presentation and acknowledged that this was the right strategy

and vision”

IBM Vice President & Chief Risk Officer --

“I personally reference the tool internally and externally as a prime example of IBM's use of Analytics to support

risk management initiatives which clearly underscores our thought leadership in this area. ”

IBM Corporate Office, Director, Global Risk and Insurance Management –

“This tool has been a huge differentiator for IBM when we present our risk profile to the property insurance

underwriting community. Business Interruption and Contingent Business Interruption are ever expanding exposures

to an organization and not only can impact income to the organization but also our ability to meet our commitments

to our customers.”

IBM VP & Chief Procurement Officer –

“Managing and reducing risk in the supply chain … will be key to IBM’s global growth in the future”

Corporate-wide Supply Chain Risk Assessment - viewed as the right

strategy and vision, key to global growth and a differentiator

Page 28: SCL Event -  Louis Ferretti - IBM - Project Executive, Product Environmental Compliance & Supply Chain Social Responsibility

• Risk management is a fundamental building block to a supply chain strategy

• Supply Chain Leaders are integrating process controls in their logistics and operations, supplier compliance programs and planning process

• Procurement can deliver true value using an intelligent and comprehensive risk assessment program with suppliers

• A strong supplier / supply chain risk management program, can - demonstrate to clients that IBM can be a reliable supplier, and- be a key factor in preserving and growing revenue- be featured to insurance underwriters as rationale for reduced premiums

• Objective of these processes is not to eliminate risk- without risk there is no progress- instead it is to ensure we can manage and mitigate risks

• “Managing and reducing risk in the supply chain … will be key to IBM’s global growth in the future”
