Hyperspecialized just-in-time supply chains are rigid and vulnerable to short run catastrophic shocks. Local and regional communities are dependent in increasingly unforseeable ways on the stability of global industries as a whole. Manufacturers and industry lack the agility to respond to real-time need and adapt their processes to match local need.
This problematic has been exposed by Covid-19 and is causing communities across the globe to rethink the supply chain systems which they depend on for critical supplies such as food, shelter, and medical equipment. This is an unprecedented opportunity to use recent advances in supply chain technology to boostrap a more adaptable, democratic, and intelligent economy. Not merely blunt the impact of today's disaster, but leverge it for a better tomorrow.
