Is resilience only relevant for large enterprises?

No. Mid-sized companies often benefit even more, as they are more exposed to volatility and have fewer buffers. Smaller teams have less slack in inventory, capacity and headcount to absorb shocks, so each disruption translates more directly into service level loss or working capital strain. Resilience practices, probabilistic forecasting, dynamic buffers, scenario simulation, are therefore disproportionately valuable at this scale, where the cost of staying reactive is harder to hide. Modern AI-driven planning tools have also lowered the entry cost, with faster onboarding and lighter data requirements, so resilience is no longer a capability reserved for the largest enterprises with dedicated Supply Chain organizations.
