Top Strategies and Techniques for Building Supply Chain Resilience

As an owner or manager of a business that relies on supply chains, you’re well aware of the ongoing supply chain disruptions and the many reasons behind them—the pandemic, natural disasters, cyberattacks, the global chip shortage, trade tensions with China, the obstruction of the Suez Canal by the Ever Given, etc. Now, soaring inflation, the “Great Resignation,” and the invasion of Ukraine have put even more pressure on the already strained system, leading to higher prices, business closures, prolonged shortages of essential and non-essential goods and services, and more.

To remain a viable company in this challenging environment, you should focus on building supply chain resilience. But improving your supply chain is not a matter of making a few tweaks to your current strategy. It involves implementing multiple, often concurrent, strategies.

To better understand this, let’s look at the top strategies and techniques for building supply chain resilience.

What is Beyond AP? How DocLink Uniquely Helps You Manage Everything In HR, Sales, Legal And More

Do you wonder what we mean by beyond when you read about how DocLink helps you go paperless and automate processes in AP and beyond? We’re definitely not referring to the terrible horror movie from 2014 where the characters struggle to survive after humans have been decimated by attacks from an alien spacecraft. DocLink’s beyond is more like the store Bed, Bath & Beyond, which allows customers to shop and furnish any room in their homes, beyond bedrooms and bathrooms into kitchens, garages, family spaces, bedrooms, etc.

Beyond AP is an important and unique benefit of DocLink, enabling companies to make a digital transformation in ANY department. Many other document management solutions have the ability to help you go paperless in AP. But why just stop there?
