"Supply chain management is all about dealing with complexity and risks. At a broad level three different approaches work well: eliminating unnecessary complexity and preventable risks; restructuring or reducing remaining complexity and risks for increased profitability and market responsiveness; and finally, mitigating remaining complexity and risks through the right combination of operational and financial hedges."
