Navigating Risk Across the Procurement and Supply Chain Lifecycle

Risk doesn’t begin when a contract is signed, and it certainly doesn’t end when goods or services are delivered. In today’s interconnected world, procurement and supply chains are increasingly exposed to a wide range of evolving risks—from cyber threats and geopolitical disruption to modern slavery, financial instability and reputational damage. Building resilience means understanding risk as a continuous process, not a single checkpoint.

To explore these challenges, the Institute of Strategic Risk Management (ISRM) is partnering with AcademyGlobal (AG), a CIPS Study Centre of Excellence for Australia, New Zealand and Southeast Asia, for an expert panel discussion on Navigating Risk Across the Procurement and Supply Chain Lifecycle.

Moderated by Charlotte Payne, the webinar will bring together experienced procurement and risk professionals, including Rob Halsall M.ISRM, Myla Bulaon and David Bartlett F.ISRM, to examine how risks emerge, evolve and compound across every stage of the procurement and supply chain lifecycle.

Rather than focusing solely on supplier risk, the discussion will take a broader view—looking at how organisations can identify vulnerabilities earlier, strengthen decision-making and build the confidence to navigate uncertainty throughout the entire procurement process.

The session will explore:

• Understanding risk across the full procurement and supply chain lifecycle. 
• Moving beyond supplier-focused risk to a whole-of-lifecycle approach. 
• Building organisational capability to manage complex and emerging risks. 
• Strengthening resilience in an increasingly uncertain operating environment. 

Whether you work in procurement, supply chain management, governance or strategic risk, this webinar offers an opportunity to hear practical insights from experienced practitioners working at the intersection of policy, procurement and resilience.

• Date: Wednesday, 5^th August
• Time: 10:00 – 11:00 CEST / 09:00 BST

We look forward to welcoming you to what promises to be a timely and insightful discussion.
