The Challenge and Benefit
The Tubbs wildfire of October 2017 killed 22 people and destroyed 5,600 structures, including the homes of 119 Keysight employees and two auxiliary Keysight office buildings. All on-site buildings suffered smoke and/or water damage. For a company with a deep, complex global supply chain – 11,000 components assembled into more than 1,500 different products at 10 sites worldwide – the impact could have been devastating. But Keysight had built disaster preparedness into its operations, in part using RapidResponse. “Plans are necessary. Simulations are valuable,” says Technology Supply Chain Manager Jason Wisler. “And RapidResponse is a key enabler around this whole infrastructure.”
