The advent of digitalisation and increased customer focus have radically changed the landscape of the manufacturing industry, making it more and more globally interconnected. While this has brought greater efficiency and cost reduction for manufacturers, allowing for a smoother distribution of value throughout the supply chain, rapid digitalisation has also heightened the risks associated with factors such as geopolitical tensions, environmental sustainability and climate resilience, cyber-attacks, as well as environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) challenges, and critical points within the supply chain. For manufacturing companies, the implementation of a robust risk management programme is essential to realise the full potential of technology, improve productivity and ensure the protection of human and material resources from adverse events, such as accidents, damage or business interruptions.
