Not necessarily. Definitely changes, specially in the JIT philosophy.

Probably accelerating the philosophy of more "agile" supply chains. Reduction of single sourcing of parts. Mixing in-sourcing and outsourcing of high priority parts.

Warehousing agreements with suppliers encouraging them to share some of the risk of inventory cost.

Rearranging logistic contracts to make it easier to expedite or modeshift depending on demand and supply of transportstion capacity per mode.

Implementation of control towers for greater visbility and in-depth SOP to address exceptions and emergencies.

With all of these you can continue to operate even if borders are closed for long periods in some areas.

De-globalization will only happen if borders are closed permanently.
