Areas of focus include supply chain basics, factors influencing supply chain risk, SCRM definition and relationship to other risk methodologies, the SCRM assessment process, and supply chain risks and mitigation tools & techniques.

This workshop is intended to prepare defense acquisition and sustainment personnel to identify, analyze, mitigate, and monitor supply chain- related risks. Students will gain knowledge of current policies, processes and guidance for identifying and mitigating risks to Department of the Air Force supply chains. Students will also gain a foundational knowledge of the tools and capabilities avail- able to SCRM practitioners, to include enhanced comprehension of the SCRM network. The instructional design for this course consists of self and group paced work, guided discussion, case study analysis, and guest lecture from SCRM subject matter experts.
