Why Supplier Data Is Breaking Supply Chain Resilience
Episode 107
Sunday, 15 February, 2026
Send me a messageOver 50% of companies say they’re getting garbage supplier data. Over 40% never hear back at all.And we’re basing ESG disclosures, compliance filings, and climate targets on that?In this episode, I’m joined by Lily Hogan, Senior Product Manager at 3E, to unpack why supplier data remains one of the biggest hidden risks in supply chain resilience and sustainability. In a world of tightening regulation, PFAS bans, digital product passports and rising scrutiny, visibility isn’t optional. It’s survival.You’ll hear how a “simple” mobile phone can involve outreach to a thousand suppliers. We break down why email and Excel are still powering global compliance workflows in 2026. And you might be surprised to learn that 98% of the world’s population now carries traces of PFAS, a stark reminder of how upstream risk becomes downstream impact.We explore how regulatory complexity is accelerating, why siloed data collection is undermining resilience, and how AI and digital product passports could finally reduce friction instead of adding to it. Because if you can’t trust your supply chain data, you can’t trust your risk model.Listen now to hear how Lily Hogan and 3E are reshaping supply chain resilience through smarter sustainability data and real visibility.Podcast supportersI'd like to sincerely thank this podcast's generous Subscribers: Alicia Farag Kieran Ognev And remember you too can become a Resilient Supply Chain+ subscriber - it is really easy and hugely important as it will enable me to continue to create more excellent episodes like this one and give you access to the full back catalog of over 460 episodes.Podcast Sponsorship Opportunities:If you/your organisation is interested in sponsoring this podcast - I have several options available.
