“Did you ever think we'd be talking this much about supply chains?” - President Biden

On Monday, November 27, 2023, President Biden announced the creation of the White House Council on Supply Chain Resilience. The event was big news for the administration and for supply chain professionals. Almost 30 new actions focused on strengthening economically important and national security-critical supply chains were rolled out.

But the devil is always in the details. And if we are going to figure out what this announcement means for private sector professionals, we have to look past the official statements and think about what we know.

In this week’s episode of Dial P for Procurement, Kelly Barner digs into the details of this week’s supply chain news to consider:

• The Biden Administration’s relationship with supply chain, dating back to the Executive Order on America’s Supply Chains issued on February 21, 2021
• The news that was (and was not) made at Monday’s event
• The good, bad, and unknown about these developments for America's most strategic supply chains
