Abstract
This IDC Perspective details how supply chain issues may continue to hinder hardware procurement for longer than what may be expected in a market recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic, with other factors building, some over decades, to now compound the challenges that the supply chain will face for years to come. The document also includes basic steps for mitigating the risk associated with recurring supply chain constraints.
"Geopolitics, labor shortages, and an exploding demand for electronic equipment across many industries will continue to place significant stress on the infrastructure supply chain for years to come," said Kuba Stolarski, research director, Computing Platforms, Cloud Infrastructure and Supply Chain at IDC. "Infrastructure buyers should prepare for a continuation of extended lead times and periodic lack of product availability."
