Supply chain and procurement decisions now shape project outcomes as directly as engineering and construction. This topic covers long lead times, equipment availability, sourcing strategy, contracting, vendor management, spares planning and procurement risk across new builds, outages and major upgrades. In a constrained environment, the ability to secure the right equipment and services at the right time can determine whether projects advance at all.
