Abstract

In the dynamic landscape of the manufacturing industry, sourcing decisions play a Pivotal role in determining operational efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and overall business resilience. This abstract provides a concise overview of the evaluation of sourcing risk within the manufacturing sector, highlighting key factors, methodologies, and implications. Manufacturers face multifaceted challenges in sourcing, ranging from geopolitical instability and supply chain disruptions to fluctuating market demands and regulatory constraints. Evaluatingthese risks demands a holistic approach that integrates quantitative and qualitative assessments. Traditional risk assessment frameworks often focus on financial metrics, supplier stability, and operational contingencies.

This abstract delves into the methodologies employed for assessing sourcing risk, encompassing both pre-emptive risk identification and ongoing risk management strategies. It explores the role of advanced analytics, including predictive modelling and simulation, in forecasting and mitigating potential disruptions.
