Build In Buffer

In September,
I posted about the disruptions
in supply chains,
how the world is seeing
shortages on things like paper.

This week,
in Canada,
there was severe flooding in BC.
It has decimated ALL roads and rail
around some of Canada’s busiest ports.

The supply chain issues
for Canadian businesses
just got a LOT worse.

This is likely to be
our reality going forward
so build in buffer.

Have an extra printer cartridge
in the supply cabinet.
Order product you plan to resell
in advance.
(Definitely, relook at
insurance policies.)
Have spares for hard-to-replace parts.
Assume packages will take longer
to be delivered.

Build in buffer.
