Traditional EHS practices have served as the foundation of safety management, however they are no longer sufficient to meet the demands of today’s complex and dynamic workplace. Increasing regulatory requirements, the need for real-time data and a more connected global workforce mean that relying solely on ageing methods leaves organizations vulnerable to greater risks. The move towards digital transformation is no longer optional, it’s essential.

We are excited to announce the next evolution of our supply chain solutions with Sphera's newly integrated Supply Chain Transparency Solution! “Supply chains have been facing unprecedented volatility with network disruptions resulting from extreme weather events, economic trends, cyber incidents and ESG-related risks,” said Paul Marushka, Sphera’s CEO and president. “Companies are also facing growing pressure to meet global ESG regulations and consumer demands for greater transparency and ethical sourcing practices.

This is what we deliver with our Supply Chain Transparency solution.” By integrating Supply Chain Sustainability (SCS) and Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM) into one platform, Sphera’s SCT product line provides organizations with end-to-end visibility across the entire supply chain to effectively manage supply chain risk, sustainability and regulatory compliance.

Two-thirds of the world's economic activity is directly or indirectly influenced by weather conditions. This means businesses across numerous sectors are increasingly exposed to weather-related risks. Extreme weather events — such as hurricanes, flooding, heat waves, droughts and wildfires — can cause disruptions to transportation and logistics, damage to facilities and equipment, supply shortages and increased costs. Read this blog to learn more about the impact of climate risks on the supply chain and what companies can do to proactively manage and mitigate risk: https://bit.ly/3zFedxn #SupplyChain #SupplyChainRisk #Climate

With recent supply chain disruptions from events such as floods, hurricanes and strikes, are you wondering about how to minimize the business impact of such risk events? The U.S. dockworkers strike was the latest in a series of events affecting supply chains worldwide. The floods in Europe, Hurricane Helene and the U.S. dockworkers strike materialized in quick succession, giving supply chains little time to recover between events. Supply chain managers can’t control labor disputes or the weather, so they need the information and tools that will help them gain better visibility, get ahead of disruption and mitigate risk. Read this blog to learn more about how companies can take a nimble, proactive approach to their supply chain operations to better manage risk events like those recently experienced: https://bit.ly/4gTZrmW #SupplyChain #RiskManagement #SupplyChainRisk
