Everstream Analytics has named Julie Gerdeman as CEO, continuing a phase of accelerated growth for the supply chain risk analytics company.

In 2018, Everstream—then known as Resilience360—was spun out from DHL, merged with weather analysis company Riskpulse in 2020 and rebranded as Everstream (www.everstream.ai) in March 2021.

Julie Gerdeman was most recently the CEO of HealthPay24 and previously held leadership positions at SAP Ariba, J.P. Morgan Chase and American Express. David Shillingford, who led Everstream through the spinout and acquisition phase, moves to Chief Strategy Officer.

“The pandemic and ongoing disruptions to supply and demand have put resilience and agility at the top of supply chain executives’ agendas and on the lips of consumers around the world,” said Shillingford. “During this time of continuous upheaval, more agile and resilient companies have outperformed their peers. The companies that are leveraging supply chain risk within their strategy have been able to use predictive analytics to get ahead of disruptions and react faster than their competitors.”

In the past several months, Everstream has advised companies on mitigating the impact of the Yantian port COVID-19 outbreak in Shenzhen, the congestion at ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach and the Suez Canal blockage.

Earlier this month, the Biden Administration’s released a 100-Day Review of Supply Chain Vulnerabilities. The commentary reveals the structural weaknesses in global supply chains which threaten U.S. economic security and what companies can do to mitigate the risks and keep supply chains running amid changing regulations.
