Thriving in 2022: Learning from Supply Chain Chaos

CLAREMONT, CALIFORNIA – February 22, 2022 – Manufacturing and Supply Chain Expert Lisa Anderson, MBA, CSCP, CLTD, President of LMA Consulting Group Inc., has released a Special Report, ‘Thriving in 2022: Learning from Supply Chain Chaos.’ This special report includes supply chain insights and perspectives from Ms. Anderson, as well as 22 advisor experts who have walked side by side with clients during their supply chain upheavals. LMA Consulting Group works with manufacturers and distributors on strategy and end-to-end supply chain transformation to maximize the customer experience and enable profitable, scalable, dramatic business growth.

“Manufacturers and distributors struggled in 2020 and 2021 with supply chain disruptions. Supply chain risks were exposed and aggravated as our clients experienced extended lead times, stock-outs, and increased levels of demand and supply volatility. We learned a lot in 2021. One thing is for certain, supply chain volatility is not going away any time soon. So, it is imperative that manufacturers and distributors learn from 2021 and include the supply chain in strategic discussions and plans,” comments Ms. Anderson.

The Special Report centers on the effects of supply chain disruptions, what companies did to mitigate customer fallout, and what the experts see for 2022. “We tapped experts from many disciplines to get different perspectives. We included experts in Finance, HR and IT and from specialties like Data, ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance), Regulatory and Transportation. We also included global as well as national perspectives. Experts review some aha moments, opportunities and risks still pending with today’s supply chains, and strategies to succeed in 2022,” she added.


‘Thriving in 2022: Learning from Supply Chain Chaos’ is available at no charge from the LMA Website. “The supply chain is critical to the success of every company. We want to make sure that we make our findings available for anyone interested,” Anderson said.

Hub International announces strategic partnership with Mas Seguros to expand transportation cross-border capabilities

Chicago, IL, October 1, 2024 - Hub International Limited (HUB), a leading global insurance brokerage and financial services firm, announced today an exclusive referral and broker program partnership throughout the U.S., Canada and Mexico with MAS Seguros, the largest trucking insurance broker in Mexico. The partnership is a response to Mexico’s growing influence in the global economy and a reflection of HUB’s and MAS Seguros’ commitment to expanding its capabilities to better serve clients doing business throughout North America.

Due to changing global political relationships and policies*, there has been a significant move for manufacturing operations to Mexico, which comes with increased risk and insurance challenges when transporting goods cross-border. Organizations face regulatory compliance issues, crime, product damage, catastrophic weather events and accidents. Additionally, more transportation firms from Mexico are moving to the U.S. As a result, there is an emerging transportation and logistics need to manage risk and insure freight, property and assets while transporting goods into Mexico for manufacturing and then back to the U.S. and Canada.
