Abstract
This poster aims to show the importance of material availability for manufacturers, as well as provide methods to define and assess materials criticality, and tools to understand market dynamics in the short- and mid-term. These tools will help manufacturers make informed decisions about materials, and elaborate efficient strategies to mitigate the risks associated with a potential supply disruption or sustainability concerns.
