This article provides a comprehensive emergency management framework for hotel procurement managers in the event of supply chain disruptions, encompassing the identification of five major supply chain risk types (suppliers/geographical concentration/logistics/raw materials/surge demand), a dual-sourcing strategy for suppliers, a formula for calculating safety stock, a three-tier activation mechanism for alternative supply sources (backup suppliers/regional distributors/linen leasing), logistics risk management (diversification of transportation modes/trade terms/customs clearance plans), financial risk hedging, as well as methods for building and annually maintaining emergency plans – all aimed at helping procurement teams achieve zero service disruptions in the event of supply chain interruptions.
