Risk & Resilience Award

Winner: Unilever

Entry Overview

Unilever has won praise for its Future Fit Resilience Framework, a response to the recently disruptive supply chain environment. Its approach includes identifying its most critical materials and using a Composite Risk Score method to determine which are most vulnerable to disruption, as well as setting out prospective methods to mitigate these risks. All of this is brought together on a Power BI dashboard, which helped ensure all necessary actions were completed. The programme helped to mitigate a €2bn potential loss of turnover in 2022.
