Maine Pointe's Supply Chain Resilience & Optionality Approach

The pandemic caught many companies off guard and brought to light the hidden vulnerabilities that exist within otherwise efficient global supply chains. This has reinforced the need for digitization, supplier optionality, agility, better visibility and an improved balance between local, regional and global sourcing, adding a new urgency to the need to know sooner and act faster.

Building in a higher level of optionality, visibility and de-risking is the first order of business as companies react to geopolitical events.

Maine Pointe's hands on, accelerated approach helps executives improve visibility, control, resilience and agility in the supply chain. Our six-step strategic sourcing process helps organizations identify and renegotiate with suppliers to secure the best possible deals and balance risk by exploring sourcing opportunities in offshore, near shore and onshore locations without damaging their long-term interests relative to quality, delivery and performance.

Our resilience and optionality approach is integrated into our end-to-end supply chain and operations transformation approach called Total Value Optimization™.
