Introduction
Since the dawn of the 21st Century, global value chains have been challenged as a result of major global events. These events were not prompted by changes in global supply chain management but quite the contrary. These events PROMPTED changes in global supply chain management. When major events occur we often do not think of the aftermath in terms of supply chain continuity, but in every event the global supply chains were severely impacted and drove companies to transform global value chains to meet new and unexpected challenges.
The Learning Team assignments for ISCOM/383 will involve studying these events and applying the global value chain impact as a result. The team will select a different event each week from the listed events in the table below.
