Global Risk Leadership at Airports as "The Hub of the Supply Chain"

Turbulent markets, digitalization, Pandemics, Wars, international competition (the chip industry), artificial intelligence, and resource constraints are transforming the aviation business and supply chains. Companies that want to survive in this risky environment where endurance is tested must achieve the integration of lean procurement, supply chains, and aviation. Airports, which used to be the centre of only aviation activities, have now become the hub of supply chains. Airports have a decisive and vital role in the fast, efficient, and optimum supply chain. Supply chains can't continue in certain areas without aviation and airports. therefore, its supply chain risk management strategies have included airports and the civil aviation industry. The integration of land transport, maritime transport, and rail systems, as well as civil aviation and airports in the form of multiple transport modes, is necessary to optimize supply chains via Risk leadership. This book offers an aerospace but LEAN approach to supply chain risk management. This book provides an ideal guide for any organization with a focus on Global Risk Leadership to develop capacity and resilience in VUCA world.
