Overview: This white paper briefly explores the use of BPO as a discipline and supply chain event management as a technology to build a risk management framework for chaotic networks. BPO is used to set process standards and operational expectations at the interface. This allows each order-to-delivery-to-cash cycle to be executed perfectly when a different nominal trading partner is plugged into the network. SCEM is used to continuously sense the network regarding relevant demands and supply information. This prevents major discontinuities when an organization plugs into or unplugs from the network. In this way the level of risk can be managed to a level commensurate with the expected return.
