The Hospital ISM® Report On Business® found a continuing increase in elective procedures and subsequent boosts in new orders and employment. The Hospital PMI of 61.9 percent was a 3.1-percentage point increase from March.
The shortage issue’s roots extend to long-standing just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing models, as well as the increasingly greater use of connected devices, products and components dependent on chips and integrated circuits.
The Services PMI® of 62.7 percent, although just a point below March’s all-time high, was considered a disappointment on Wall Street. Meanwhile, services-business executives and supply managers focused on responding to the opportunities and challenges evident in the data.
Many people might not be able to access a coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine — a shortage of glass vials is predicted to create a bottleneck for the vaccine’s delivery.
With COVID-19 vaccines on the way, ‘the end is within sight’ — but companies and supply chains could be navigating a fundamentally different economic terrain after the pandemic haze clears.
With no escape from extreme-weather events that cause disruptions — and worsen others — supply chains must be more resilient and responsible to combat the unprecedented risk of climate change.
Sustainability has become a critical business imperative, driving supply chain risk reduction and value creation while emphasizing the triple bottom line of planet, people and profit.
Four supply management experts discuss what sustainability means to their companies, stakeholders and customers, how it is measured, and challenges facing the profession.

The coronavirus pandemic — the latest in a litany of inventory-threatening supply chain disruptions — has led to calls to break the glass on a new model: from just-in-time to just-in-case, or something in between.
Electricity, gas and water companies are seeking more powerful risk management as the coronavirus pandemic leads to increased cyberattacks aimed at their workers and supply chains.
At some point, analytics will again be more about strategy than survival, providing an opportunity to reevaluate metrics and how they can measure procurement’s contributions to overall business goals.
