Securing Critical Supply in Energy, Resources and Industrial Operations
by Carina N Beger
When critical supply fails, operations stop.
In high-risk industrial environments, fuel, explosives, chemicals, and critical inputs are not commodity purchases. They are operational lifelines. One disruption does not mean a cost overrun. It means a shutdown.
High-Risk Procurement gives procurement leaders and risk executives the framework to manage what matters most: supply security in environments where failure is not an option. Built around the PATHWAY5™ Framework, it delivers a structured, practical approach to resilience across five capability pillars, from market intelligence to infrastructure risk to workforce and governance.
For those who understand that the real question is never cost, but consequence.
By Carina N Beger. Published by CB Storyworks.
When critical supply fails, operations stop.
This is not a hypothetical. Fuel shortages have grounded transport fleets overnight. Explosives disruptions have idled mining operations for weeks. Chemical gaps have shut down production with no warning and no backup. In high-risk industrial environments, procurement is not a support function. It is an operational safeguard, and when it fails, everything else fails with it.
High-Risk Procurement: Securing Critical Supply in Energy, Resources and Industrial Operations establishes the framework that this discipline has long demanded. Written for procurement leaders, risk executives, and operational decision-makers who cannot afford disruption, it moves beyond cost management and into the territory that actually matters: supply security, infrastructure resilience, and the strategic decisions that determine whether critical operations continue or stop.
The book introduces the PATHWAY5™ Framework, a rigorous capability model built across five interconnected pillars: Procurement Resilience, Assurance and Compliance, Technology and Infrastructure, Hedging and Market Intelligence, and Workforce and Governance. It is not a theoretical construct. It is a working model built on the hard realities of fuel, explosives, chemicals, and critical industrial inputs.
If you are responsible for securing supply in complex, high-consequence environments, this book was written for you.
The question is never: what does it cost? The question is: what happens if it fails?
By Carina N Beger, creator of the PATHWAY5™ Framework. Published by CB Storyworks
“This is a comprehensive resource for anyone dealing with procurement strategy in high-stakes environments. The framework is practical and the case studies help illustrate real-world challenges. If you work in energy, manufacturing, or logistics where supply disruptions matter, this book is invaluable reference material. ”
