MIT, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, is collaborating with SAPICS, the Association for Operations Management of Southern Africa and IMPERIAL Logistics to perform an important global study of Supply Chain Risk Management. They are conducting a global survey of people's experiences and attitudes toward supply chain risks and risk management. The average time to complete this survey is only 12 minutes. They are collecting data in six different regions of the world and the goal is to understand if regional and cultural differences affect how people think about and manage supply chain risks.


Supply chain, finance, and business professionals from many different cultures and industries are participating in the survey. In particular, they are seeking responses from manufacturing, retailing, and distribution companies. Sample questions include:


1. What supply chain disruptions have you experienced?
2. Which risks do you consider most important and least important?
3. Is headquarters the best place to co-ordinate recovery efforts?

After completing the survey, you may request that a summary of the study findings be e-mailed to you. If you choose to provide your email address, it will only be used to send you a summary of the study findings in early 2010, or to ask that you further explain your responses.
