Circular Economy
Don't throw out that broken toaster:
it's key to our prosperity.
Redesigning the economy so that
all waste is reused or recycled
would be good for business.
China is already pushing the circular
economy. According to its 12th fiveyear plan covering 2011-15 China
will "plan, construct and renovate
various kinds of industrial parks
according to the requirements of the
circular economy".

Resilient operations
We define resilience as the ability of a system to return to its original state
or move to a new, more desirable state after being disturbed. Implicit in this
definition is the notion of flexibility, and given that the desired state may be
different from the original, adaptability earns a place in our thinking too.
(Christopher and Peck, 2004)
In this work we use risk in line with common usage in the sense that it
relates to supply chain vulnerability, as at risk: vulnerable; likely to be lost or
damaged.
Resilience implies flexibility and agility. Its implications extend beyond
process redesign to fundamental decisions on sourcing and the
establishment of more collaborative supply chain relationships based on far
greater transparency of information.

Risk Management
What is risk?
Supply risk is defined as the potential occurrence of an incident or
failure to seize opportunities with inbound supply, the outcome
of which results in a financial loss for the firm (Zsidisin et al,
2006).
