Global manufacturing and assembly operations are operating in an era of unprecedented disruption, driven by geopolitical volatility, shifting trade policies, regionalization, and ongoing capacity constraints. This session examines how OEMs and suppliers are rethinking traditional supply chain models to build greater resilience, flexibility, and responsiveness. Attendees will explore how organizations are adapting to supply chain fragility by redesigning production ecosystems that balance cost, risk, speed, and reliability across regions and tiers.

Bringing together perspectives from industry, consulting, and government-focused market intelligence, this panel will explore the practical strategies companies are using to strengthen supply chain resilience. Luke Gilliland of DACIS/InfoBase Publishers will discuss how geopolitical risk and defense supply chain priorities are shaping sourcing decisions. Amish Thakkar of AlixPartners will share insights on network redesign and operational transformation, while Danielle Riggs, CEO of Wurth Logistics USA, will offer expertise in global trade, logistics, and compliance. Together, they will provide actionable guidance on improving visibility, managing risk, and building future-ready production ecosystems.
