Time-to-Survive is an important analytical method for supply chain risk.  It  has been developed by David Simchi-Levi to complement his influential Time-to-Recover methodology.

In the Harvard Business Review, Dr. Simchi-Levi identifies three key benefits and examines the experience of Ford (above) in applying the method;

Strategic: To identify exposure to risk associated with parts and suppliers, prioritize and allocate resources effectively, develop mitigation strategies, and identify opportunities to reduce risk mitigation cost

Tactical: To monitor changes in risk exposure on a daily or weekly basis

Operational: To identify an effective way to allocate resources after a disruption.
