Going into April and beyond, the concerns are in logistics. International transport is becoming restricted so everyone is moving to local supply and local storage rather than national or regional. A mix of on and offshore is needed.

This was all possible to handle with a highly resourced procurement/logistics specialist organisation, set up over 5 years ago to be able to cope with global and regional crises to maintain business continuity.

Doing it from scratch in organisations which have different core priorities and competences is much more difficult. But ultimately you can& #39;t buy what doesn& #39;t exist, which someone else has already bought or which a state has sequestered.
