Undertakes supply network vulnerability research on behalf of, or in collaboration with, business or academia. Joint working between industry and academia is likely to produce the most valuable results. Core risk has established links with many academic institutions and groups of academics interested in this subject area. Our latest work published in the Journal of Purchasing and Supply can be found at www.sciencedirect.com

Key focus areas include;

• Understanding the current use of supply network vulnerability management techniques, and comparing with best practice from risk focused industries.
  
• Development of standard tools and methodologies for identifying, measuring and managing the vulnerability of supply networks.
  
• Understanding the role of perception on the risk appetite of members in the network, and on the risk appetite of the network as a whole.
