Traditional supply chain audits weren’t built for how supply chains operate today. They assume stability. Conditions that hold long enough for a quarterly snapshot to be useful. Decisions that can wait. None of that is true anymore. Modern supply chains are dynamic, interconnected systems. Disruptions don’t sit still. They cascade. And if your audit process…
