Effects of COVID-19 Pandemic on Supply Chains

The normal PPE supply chain process is usually the sourcing teams choosing 2-3 large-scale distributors. The supplies from the distributors are delivered weekly. The distributors usually purchase directly from the manufacturer or third parties. In the U.S., PPE production is limited with more than 70% of PPE produced in China. Due to the spike of demand, distributors cannot acquire PPE to meet the demands.

As China serves as a hub for electronic production, impacts to manufacturing in China subsequently affects production upstream in other countries, such as Japan and South Korea. As a result of lockdowns limiting production of electronics in China, Japan, South Korea, and Australia, consumers in the United States, Mexico, and France face reduced output of electronics and subsequently purchase fewer electronics during the pandemic and post-pandemic phases.

Due to the complex nature of the automotive supply chain, any impediments to the output of suppliers, such as labor and transportation constraints, will have a significant upstream effect on production. Germany has been adversely affected as suppliers in the U.S., China and the U.K. have faltered in terms of delivering auto parts and raw materials. Hence, unable to sufficiently manufacture automotive vehicles, Germany will face reduced Chinese, American, and Austrian demand for German vehicles.
