Shay Scott, executive director of the Global Supply Chain Institute at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, was interviewed Oct. 13 on The Hallerin Hilton Hill Show on News Talk 98.7, WOKI-FM in Knoxville. The interview is part of a series Hill is producing with a focus on the impactful research being conducted at UT and the faculty members behind that work.
The interview discusses the supply chain—what it is, how it works and how it has become more relevant than ever due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Standard business philosophies for stable, predictable demand are not effective in unstable times. Scott explains how the impacts of reshoring, labor and technology affect manufacturing stability.
Listen to the episode here and tune in to Hill’s live show on weekdays from 3 to 7 p.m.
