Review of Building Resilience in Supply Chains (CORE1055)

Summary: Review on Building Resilience in Supply Chains – An Initiative of the Risk Response Network – In collaboration with Accenture – World Economic Forum. The report broadens the view of resilient supply chains away from pure trucking towards taking all available transport modes into account. Additional relevance is given by building partnerships of private companies and creating strategic transport orientation in normal times and to be executed in harsh times. The views given are from large industry and insurers point of view thus serve as hints to SMEs. Demo-WPs concerned with resilience should have the ideas in mind in order to follow the worlds to forum and on the other side identified lacks (of focus on consumers of goods) should be avoided in CORE demonstration layouts.  Coding in CORE e-library is CORE1055.

ECSIT Report Summary (CORE3005)

Summary: This reference project review focuses on German national funded research project ECSIT: Enhancing container security through non-contact inspection at the seaport terminal. The work done in ECSIT in non-intrusive inspection devices should be continued and refined in CORE ST2.3 Next Generation Scanning System. Furthermore the ECSIT AP7 Demonstration of the system might be used as a good working example for organization and operating plans towards the CORE ST 2.3.4 Field Demonstration. More support from ECSIT might be given to CORE T7.3 Scenario-based simulation and towards US-based Demo WPs for the broadly discussed and approved scenarios how to survey container with a multi-layered inspection approach in mind. The authors of the review are Marcus Engler and Matthias Dreyer, ISL. You can find the full review and original files in CORE e-library, with the coding CORE3005.
