Details

The Global Supply Chains Intelligence Programme (GSCIP), is an innovative programme that uses data science to map global supply chains in order to improve visibility of supply chain opportunities and risks.

Events of recent years have severely disrupted global supply chains, and traditional methods of manually mapping critical supply chains take a long time to complete. The GSCIP platform combines commercial and UK government data to improve visibility and resilience of supply chains to quickly answer government supply chain questions.

This summary report provides a final impact evaluation of phase 1 (pilot phase) of the GSCIP (2021-2023). The evaluation was commissioned out to Ipsos who conducted several workshops, interviews, and surveys with GSCIP participant departments. The report aims to evaluate the impact the GSCIP prototype has had, both in terms of overall value for money and the longer-term UK government strategy for adoption of data driven AI approaches to supply chain mapping.
