    Managing risks in supply networks is a complex task; the more so in those supply networks the core competence of which lies in dealing with natural disasters, complex emergencies, and large-scale attacks-namely those of humanitarian, and military organisations where the price of failure can be counted in terms of the loss of life rather than, simply, reduced profits.
