  • Chapter
Managing Supply Chain Risk

Abstract

Besides those outsourcing-related risks presented in Chapter 10, there are various supply chain risks arising from new product development. In this chapter, we illustrate these new product development risks by using the case of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner to present how Boeing managed these risks . More importantly, we highlight key lessons for manufacturers to consider when designing supply chains for new products.
