Measuring the supply chain impact of the Los Angeles wildfires
The LA wildfires will impact construction and health care supply chains, says an ASU supply chain management expert.
In this story published Jan. 24, 2025, on AZ Big Media:
Post fires, the rebuilding effort will be herculean, and the construction and home-furnishing industries need to have a properly oiled supply chain for the massive rebuilding effort. The smoke from the fires can also cause major health risks impacting our health care supply chain, so they need to be prepared for the aftermath. The supply chain is like a line of dominos — each piece is interconnected, so anticipating the chain of events and strategically addressing weak links is crucial to maintaining stability and risk mitigation.
