Understanding global supply chains is essential across the Department of Commerce. From assessing trade disruptions, to supporting industry analysis, to informing policy work. This training introduces you to Bloomberg’s supply chain tools, available through the Commerce Research Library, that can help you uncover the relationships and risks shaping today’s global markets.

In this session, you will learn:

  • What Bloomberg’s supply chain data can reveal
    See how Bloomberg maps supplier and customer networks across industries and countries, and how this data can support your economic, trade, or policy-related research.
  • How to explore a company’s supply chain using SPLC
    Learn to quickly spot hidden dependencies, geographic concentration, and potential vulnerabilities—insights useful for informing briefings, reports, and decision‑making.
  • What’s coming next
    Hear about Bloomberg’s 2026 roadmap, including improved AI‑driven analytics, expanded datasets, and new capabilities that can deepen your research.

Whether you're working on industry studies, export monitoring, supply chain resilience, or broader economic analysis, this session will help you use a powerful tool you may not have known you had.
