Studentjob, master thesis, bachelor thesis, project thesis, internship Assessing resilience in supply chains

In the project, a software demonstrator is developed that can be used to assess resilience - both from the perspective of the supplier company and from the perspective of the selecting company. The required resilience of the selecting company is then compared with the existing resilience of the supplier company. If there is an imbalance, the software demonstrator suggests measures to improve the resilience of the supplier company. The underlying assessment method is intended to support manufacturing companies in the selection of resilient suppliers - and it is intended to create incentives for companies to actively participate in the development of their suppliers and jointly strengthen supply chain resilience.
