February 21: Managing New Contract Risks in the Supply Web

Global supply chains in 2024 will become more resilient—but even so, parties need new approaches in order to address ongoing supply complexity, changing vulnerabilities, and new supply partner requirements. As the list of short- and long-term risks grows, how can supply relationships keep up? How are parties providing comfort around consistency of supply, privacy and data management, and the wide range of social requirements asked of them?
The panelists for this 60-minute program will tackle current issues in the supply chain environment as well as best practices to address long-term supply risks. We will discuss supply partner diligence and monitoring, and how this information can lead to targeted changes in contracting and negotiation. In addition, we will discuss technological advances that enable real-time information sharing and problem solving.
Learning Objectives include:

• Understand how to account contractually for financial, compliance, and reputational/ESG risks that are uncovered in due diligence up and down the entire supply chain.
• Understand the emerging approaches to supply chain contracting, including increased visibility into practices and performance of upstream suppliers, express ESG requirements (human rights; environmental compliance), and audit & reporting.
• Review cross-border supply chain challenges, such as sourcing, near-shoring, and increased import compliance and enforcement.
• Who would benefit most from attending this program?

In-house and law firm counsel who create or supervise the creation of supply contracts
Corporate counsel who manage contract drafting in supply-chain compliance, regulation, and technology.
