Taiga Company

When you toss a pebble into a pond, a series of concentric ripples propagate out extend far beyond the point of entry.  With a number of business sustainability pebbles being tossed into the pond today, one can’t help but wonder what effects the resulting ripples might have on the supply chain.

With legislative pressures and shifting consumer expectations positioned to effect business consumption, are the supply chains ready to respond?  Will your business ride the high or low of the ‘green’ bullwhip?

Within our professional consulting practice, we find a trademark of sustainable organizations to be the ability to effectively manage the flow of information among key business relationships.  The true differentiators are those who understand their supplier and customer relationships and have a fully aligned direction.  If you are not sure if your business is prepared for dramatic change, try asking your supply chain a few questions:

•    What unforeseen changes resulting from the market changes could result in major disruptions in the supply chain?
•    Are the business value drivers of my key suppliers and customers aligned with the direction of the company?
•    What are the business risks and pressure points that could affect the sustainability of supply?
•    Are business risks accentuated or mitigated by the current supply chain relationship?

Companies, small business owners, and entrepreneurs stand at the crossroads as we approach a point of rebound from these uncertain economic times.  While some organizations are taking a reactive approach, waiting to see how the market responds  before taking action, leading organizations are taking the opportunity to rework traditional business practices and models to place themselves in a more favorable position for the future.

Taiga Company works with businesses seeking to ride the ‘high-side’ of the wave of change.  Rather than scrambling to respond to propagating ripples of change in the supply chain, our sustainability consulting resources are focused on the opportunities of proactive business sustainability action.
