4. Supply chain risk management (SCRM) is "the implementation of
strategies to manage both everyday and exceptional risks along the
supply chain based on continuous risk assessment with the objective
of reducing vulnerability and ensuring continuity”
Wikipedia
6. Internal Challenges in Mining Industry
Usually located in a REMOTE AREA that
sometimes is not easy to reach
Many mining companies work in areas close to
NATIVE/LOCAL COMMUNITIES
Due to its nature, mining activities have high
impact on the ENVIRONMENT
HIGH INVESTMENT is required to operate the
mining area
Due to the specific condition of the exploited
area, SPECIALIZED EQUIPMENT is required
8. Impact on Mining Supply Chain
Impact to Companies
Need to better manage cash
flow
Reduction of supply chain
manpower
Need to optimize the current
assets (avoid replacement)
Challenged to increase
productivity and efficiency

Challenged to increase

Impact to Suppliers
Increased competition due
to smaller pool of customers
Reduce profitability to stay
competitive
Reduction of manpower
Demand planning is more
difficult
10. Financial Risks
Supplier
Financial Risk
Reduced cash flow, reduced
access to credit, insolvency,
bankruptcy
Input Price
Volatility Risk
Price premium due to
remote location, limited
supply options for parts and
labor, limited negotiation
leverage
External
Financial Risks
Exchange rate, lack of
competition, fluctuation of
commodity prices
11. Regulatory Risks
Local regulations and laws are continuously evolving and
sometimes uncertain
Strict regulations on environment, health, and safety which
affects inventory, procurement, and transportation of goods
12. Operational Risks
Availability of critical parts to avoid high opportunity costs
when parts are unavailable
Suppliers unable to meet the company’s needs across a
range of dimensions (capacity, quality, safety)
Transportation of the goods to the mining operations area
13. Geopolitical and Social Risks
Supply lines extend across various countries
Each has its own regulations and challenges
Lack of involvement from local business may
harm the company in the long term
Reputation of the company may be
jeopardized if it does not consider the
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
17. Mitigation Strategy #1:
Acceptance
Simply accept that it may happen and
decide to deal when it does.
Used when the cost to mitigate is very
high compared to the cost of the risk.
A company doesn’t want to spend a lot
of money on avoiding risks that do not
have a high possibility of occurrence.
Example: the risk of an earthquake
hitting the factory of a supplier for a
non-critical spare part can be
accepted.
18. Mitigation Strategy #2: Avoidance
The opposite of risk acceptance.
Avoids any exposure to the risk whatsoever.
Changing a plan to eliminate a risk or to protect plan objectives
from its impact.
Usually the most expensive risk mitigation options.
Example: use standard machine / equipment part, increase
security costs to avoid theft
19. Mitigation Strategy #3: Limitation
The most common used risk management strategy.
Limits a company’s exposure by taking some action.
Employing a bit of risk acceptance along with a bit of risk avoidance or an
average of both.
Example: conduct quality inspection to incoming goods, limit
suppliers pool to those which have stable financial strength.
20. Mitigation Strategy #4:
Transfer
Handing risk off to a willing third party.
Can be beneficial if the transferred risk is not a core
competency.
Example: outsource certain operations such as
customer service or payroll services, use
insurance to mitigate consequential loss.
