When asked about how supply chain agility can be measured, Sidhu told Gilmore that forecast accuracy is a way of measuring variability and agility is a company's way of responding to rate of change demands in market. Any company's ways of utilizing assets to meet the market demand and the return which they get on those assets plays a great role in deciding how agile a company is.
