Summary
Details

When critical supply fails, operations stop.

Fuel shortages halt transportation fleets. Explosives disruptions delay mining operations. Chemical supply failures shut down manufacturing lines. Infrastructure constraints ripple across global logistics networks. In high-risk industries, procurement is not a cost function. It is a system of operational survival.

High-Risk Procurement: Securing Critical Supply in Energy, Resources and Industrial Operations reframes procurement as a strategic risk discipline for professionals who operate where supply failure carries real operational, safety, and regulatory consequences.

Drawing on direct industrial experience across energy, mining, heavy manufacturing, and chemicals, Carina N Beger reveals why traditional procurement approaches break down under volatility and constraint, and what a structured, risk-informed approach looks like in practice.

Introducing the PATHWAY5(TM) Framework

At the core of the book is the PATHWAY5(TM) Framework, a practical model built not from theoretical supply models but from direct observation of where procurement capability gaps consistently appear and what it costs when they are exposed under pressure. The framework helps organisations:

Strengthen supply resilience and build infrastructure capability Navigate market volatility and price exposure Improve governance and procurement decision-making Ensure regulatory and compliance assurance Transition from transactional buying to strategic risk management

Who this book is for

This book is written for professionals operating where supply failure has real consequences:

Procurement and supply chain leaders Operations and maintenance managers Energy, mining, and industrial sector professionals Risk and compliance specialists Executives responsible for operational continuity

Approximately [237 pages / 50,600 words].

The core question in high-risk procurement is never what it costs.

It is what happens if it fails.
