Innovation in Global Supply Chain Risk Management in the Post-epidemic Era

The ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the vulnerabilities in traditional supply chains, presenting both challenges and opportunities that drive the digital transformation and systematic innovation of supply chain risk management in the post-pandemic era. This paper reviews the feasibility of supply chain transformation by focusing on areas such as systemic restructuring of supply chains, big data innovation, fintech applications, collaborative logistics, and intelligent risk control. Big data can integrate heterogeneous data to improve risk prediction accuracy, but privacy security risks and data silos still constrain practical implementation; fintech's involvement in supply chain management can effectively enhance transparency between interactions, yet it carries the risk of weakening human intervention mechanisms; third-party logistics companies have increased information flexibility but face challenges of functional ambiguity and resource integration; intelligent risk control systems rely on artificial intelligence to achieve multi-party collaboration, but the marginalization of small and medium-sized enterprises due to technological inadequacies cannot be overlooked. The study finds that the synergy between technology inclusiveness and institutional innovation is the core path to resolving structural imbalances in supply chains and achieving resilient leaps. Today, innovations in technology application in supply chains must not ignore traditional organizational adaptability and coordination culture conflicts. This research emphasizes that technology inclusiveness and institutional innovation are key to supply chain risk management innovation.
