當需求更高且我的慣常來源無法提供服務時，與其他經過審查的提供者相比，我如何才能更好地增強我的替補實力？

「所以，我認為第一步實際上只是提前規劃並確保從供應連續性和風險緩解的角度了解您的策略是什麼。從生產角度來看，這一點以及哪些零件和供應商至關重要，」Cherry 說。

“If your answer is that all parts and suppliers are critical, then you probably haven’t gotten to the right level of detail to categorize or segment your portfolio.

“On top of this, ensure the high accuracy of drawings and BOMs (bill of materials) to help you improve the speed of your turnaround when faced with an increase in demand,” continued Cherry.

繼續對需求和生產班次做出反應的主題，我的公司是否有辦法更可靠地獲得符合我們生產水平所需的零件？

Clarke 對著麥克風說：“準確的 BOM 是幫助將準確性提高到這些需求水平的第一點，並且它們通常在整個生命週期中經歷許多迭代的變化。”

Clarke 繼續說道：「關鍵是要掌握這些變化以及版本索引，並確保將這些變化傳達給您的供應基地。您這樣做的頻率越高，獲得的結果就越準確。

“A forecast is only as good as it is at that point in time that it’s generated. Therefore, using all the tools around the BOMs and using all the updates to your vendor base that can support those forecasts are absolutely critical to ensure you maximize the chance of that demand and supply, matching and meeting that on time requirement,” said Clarke.

在整個討論過程中，強而有力的溝通是整個解決方案的重點。

“There’s a common theme here about how important good communication internally and externally is, as well as really understanding your supply base and being proactive”

“傑里米和亞當，從你們個人的角度來看，你們認為人們應該牢記哪些建議？”

“I think for myself the biggest tip I would give is to never assume anything,” said Clarke. “Whether it is anything from walking into a vendor to get an agreement and assuming you’re going to walk out with what you want or getting an urgent shipment onto an aircraft. I would always say just follow up on every single step that you do within the supply chain activity because you just get that peace of mind. Then, you can then walk away knowing that it’s absolutely going to happen.”

Cherry added to that saying: “I think for me, what kind of jumps out throughout my career is just making sure that you’re balancing the day-to-day short-term actions that you’re trying to use to drive value within your supply chain and business, alongside the long-term tasks where you’re making sure robust decisions that lead to long term stability and health for the company and supply chain overall. It can be difficult for people to be able to take a step back and try to keep that balance, however it’s very important you have a focus on both.”
