NTD TV in New York interviewed Lisa Anderson about the Baltimore Bridge Collapse the Supply Chain Impact to discuss the economic impact.
In this episode of Supply Chain Chats, Lisa Anderson talks about the state of affairs in the global supply chain. From the drought impacting container ship capacity in the Panama Canal to the Iran-backed Houthi rebels attacking container ships in the Suez Canal to the Chinese aggression towards Taiwan and ships passing in the South China Seas, risks are increasing across the global supply chain.
When supply chains run smoothly, the economies they support do too. But when even the smallest disruption occurs, supply chains can quickly turn into the equivalent of a daisy chain — where one event sets off a cascading impact down the entire logistics value chain. Experts fear that this [...]
The closure of the Port of Baltimore this week could have far-reaching implications all the way across the country for the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, according to several experts including Lisa Anderson of LMA Consulting Group.
The Francis Scott Key Bridge now lies partially submerged in the Patapsco River after a catastrophic cargo ship collision this week. Here’s how the Key Bridge collapse may affect the port’s operation.
Lisa Anderson emphasizes the profound and wide-ranging impacts on global supply chains. The bridge’s destruction not only disrupts local traffic and logistics but also sends shockwaves through international trade routes, highlighting the critical need for robust supply chain resilience strategies.
Horribly, a container ship collided with the Francis Scott Key Bridge, and much of the bridge collapsed. From a supply chain point of view, it has caused significant near-term impacts and extended disruptions in the region.
The Baltimore disaster is expected to further compound the stress already placed on the global freight system. “Container shipping traffic has already been quite disrupted, because of the drought going on in the Panama Canal–ships from there [are] going through the Suez Canal to come to the east coast of the U.S. from Northeast Asia,” says Lisa Anderson.
In this episode of Interlinks, we delve into the heart of navigating through the unpredictable tides of global events and their profound impact on supply chains, discussing the imperative need for agility and resilience.
