In order to assure more flexible reaction capability in combination with high level reliability of PPC, logistic risk management is essential, which enables an early identification, assessment and control of logistic risks in the supply chain. Within the research project SFB 489 C4 - “design and control of flexible supply chains for the production of precision forged components” a comprehensive approach was developed for the implementation of logistic risk management in PPC in flexible supply chains. This paper describes the developed methods for risk identification, risk assessment and risk control as well. ER
