Supply Chain Analysis Capabilities and Experience

CNA is a nationally recognized research and analysis organization with an 85-year record of impactful work in the areas of national security and homeland security. Since 1999, CNA has also supported local and state clients with emergency management services, with a particular focus on preparedness activities such as assessments, planning, and exercises, as well as the provision of disaster support. Over the past 6 years, CNA has pioneered the analysis of regional food, fuel, and water networks and the analysis of the supply chains of other lifeline commodities to support emergency management planning and operations. Our work in these areas has been featured in presentations at the Big City Emergency Managers and the National Emergency Management Association conferences. In this paper, we present selected highlights of our recent supply chain analysis work.
