Lecture description

Resilience, crucial in EU policy post-crises, means withstanding challenges and undergoing sustainable, fair transitions. In manufacturing, it's about internal strategies to handle supply chain, energy, demand, personnel, or machining disruptions. Understanding the type and severity of risks is the first step. A 2021 WEF report found only 12% of companies resilient. Measures exist at supply chain, factory, and resource levels. This analysis focuses on rapid reconfiguration via digitization as a resilience strategy, using EU manufacturing examples to highlight benefits, risks, and impacts of digital technologies for reconfiguration and resilience.
