Situation
The objective is to stimulate constructive agreement between all stakeholders and to reveal any restrictive legal and economic frameworks, erroneous incentives in the supply chain, conflicts of interest, and problematic cost-benefit ratios.
Course of action
This project will make a significant contribution to strategic thinking about how to respond to product shortage problems by systematically analyzing the situation from key player perspectives. This includes knowledge-elaboration, integration, and sharing about the extent and the causal factors of shortages as well as round table negotiations with the stakeholders which will make out shared responsibilities.
