Dr. Rob Handfield, Bank of America University Distinguished Professor of Supply Chain Management at North Carolina State University and Executive Director of the Supply Chain Resource Cooperative (SCRC), joins Justin Smith, SIOR, to explore how global supply network dynamics govern real-world warehouse, logistics, and manufacturing facility decisions. When an occupier says, "We need another warehouse," how do we identify the real operational constraint before signing a costly, long-term lease? From the physics of inventory flow to multi-tier supplier blind spots, Dr. Handfield delivers a masterclass on diagnosing supply chain fragility before making multi-million dollar real estate commitments. Key Topics & Executive Insights: The Physics of Flow: Why supply networks operate like river systems, and why excessive buffer inventory creates operational silt rather than safety.Multi-Tier Blind Spots: Lessons from the Strategic National Stockpile and why 85% of disruption risk originates at Tier 2 and Tier 3 suppliers.The 40nm DRAM Crunch: How tech hyperscalers and AI data centers are locking up global memory capacity through 2027, crowding out legacy automotive and medical device allocations.The Onshoring Catch-22: Why domestic generic drug production costs 2.5x to 4x more and requires multi-year guaranteed federal off-take contracts to underwrite facility debt.The North Carolina Industrial Hub: Inside Holly Springs' $6.5B biomanufacturing boom (Fujifilm Diosynth, Amgen) and the Berry Amendment (10 U.S.C. 4862) driving textile mill revitalization in western NC.Nearshoring vs. Tariffs: Comparing Monterrey's 2-4 day transit time and $4.80/hr labor against Pacific ocean freight and border tariff friction.When Procurement Runs Real Estate: Managing industrial leases as strategic corporate contracts, with tenant improvement fit-out (racking, AMRs, conveyor robotics) adding 30% to 50% on top of base rent.Relational Governance: Why rigid penalty clauses fail in 68% of crises, while collaborative governance resolves blockages 4x faster with 92% supplier retention.The 3PL Boom: Why 3PL logistics operators account for 30% to 50% of annual warehouse leasing in major logistics hubs.AI in Sourcing Decisions: How NC State Jenkins MBA students use AI to accelerate market discovery by 70% while keeping 100% human accountability for final awards.
