Welcome to the fifth episode of our series on the seven levels of supply chains, inspired by James Amoah’s work. Today, we examine the Legal Level – where regulations and compliance play a crucial role. The legal level encompasses laws and regulations governing supply chain operations. Compliance, intellectual property, contracts, and ethical considerations all fall under this level. Navigating this complex landscape is essential for maintaining smooth operations and avoiding costly penalties. Understanding the legal level helps businesses operate within the law and maintain ethical standards. It's a critical aspect of risk management and long-term success. By proactively managing legal risks, companies can build more resilient and sustainable supply chains. Watch the full episode to learn more about the Legal Level and how to navigate it effectively!
