Sourcing Monthly March 2020 – April 2020
Conclusion: This month, there has been a particular focus on business continuity plans amidst COVID-19-driven uncertainties.

Broad-based business continuity programs to ensure solid internal operations, avoid supply chain disruptions, support customer liquidity needs and mitigate risks associated with a volatile industry have become critical. Vendors must focus on managing partner and customer relations during market shifts and changes to strategic plans which are expected to be ongoing.
