Italian supply chain risk management trends
Overview
Research from the Politecnico di Milano Supply Chain Planning Observatory indicates that while 96% of Italian companies monitor supply chain risks, only 20% utilize continuous and systematic processes. Primary business concerns include geopolitical instability and tariffs (65%), demand volatility (57%), and logistical disruptions (49%).
To mitigate these uncertainties, 80% of companies are working to enhance simulation and scenario analysis capabilities. Mitigation strategies include identifying alternative suppliers (62%), diversifying procurement sources (59%), revising inventory management policies (54%), and increasing production flexibility (45%).
Regarding technological integration, the use of artificial intelligence in supply chain planning remains in early stages. Although 48% of companies are running pilot projects, only 25% have fully operational AI projects, a gap attributed largely to a lack of internal expertise. Additionally, 65% of companies report that AI has had no significant impact on corporate roles.
