PLEASANTON, Calif., June 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Blume Global, a multimodal supply chain orchestration platform that unites end-to-end visibility, supplier management and logistics execution, has partnered with Resilinc, the world's leading supply chain risk-monitoring, mapping and resiliency solution, to provide Blume Global customers with best-in-class risk management solutions.

Ongoing disruptions in the supply chain have stressed the importance of end-to-end supply chain visibility, but shipment transparency is only one piece of the puzzle.

With Resilinc's suite of supply chain resiliency solutions, Blume Orchestration is complemented with AI-powered event monitoring, supplier visibility, data and risk scoring, and predictive technology that predicts delivery delays, price movements and supply constraints.

"Visibility throughout the supply chain is simply not enough — it's also about anticipating problems proactively and assessing the alternatives to fulfill and complete a shipment," said Pervinder Johar, CEO of Blume Global. "Blume Orchestration combines real-time visibility with logistics execution. Resilinc's leading-edge capabilities are the gold standard for supply chain resiliency, and we look forward to helping our customers leverage these critical capabilities to fortify their supply chain operations and protect their operations and financial metrics."

Through our partnership with Blume Global, we will be able to make real-time event monitoring, supply chain mapping, supply risk data and analytics, and scenario planning capabilities available to Blume's clients and enable them to be more proactive about managing supply chain disruptions."
