Welcome to the Lehigh Business Supply Chain Risk Management Index (LRMI) Survey for the 3rd Quarter 2025 conducted by the Center for Supply Chain Research at Lehigh University.  

 

Study Overview
The purpose of this survey is to develop a better understanding of the different kinds of supply chain risks businesses face.  Our plan is to provide a supply chain risk management index that will help supply chain professionals better able to differentiate high SC risks from low SC risks that they will face in the next quarter.  We will provide a summary report to all those that fill out the survey.  

 

This survey captures your perceptions on ten broad categories of risk. There are two parts of this survey - the risk questions and the demographic questions. The risk questions will take approximately 5 minutes to finish.  The demographic questions will take an additional 5 minutes.
