目的提出供应链网络弹性类型的概念框架。设计/方法论/方法以复杂适应系统为组织框架,探讨工程、生态和进化三种形式的弹性及其影响因素,并将这三种形式与供应链弹性的准备、响应、恢复、增长和更新四个阶段联系起来。效率和系统优化方法可以促进中断后的快速恢复。然而,系统级别的响应需要适应能力,而在中断后,可能需要转型行为来将供应链提升到新的适应水平。讨论的三种弹性类型并不是相互排斥的,而是相辅相成的,这些弹性类型之间存在协同作用和权衡。研究限制/影响理论命题的实证验证将为供应链研究开辟新的前景。存在以多种和更全面的方式分析和评估SHR的可能性。实际意义本研究的发现可以帮助管理者改进他们管理供应链网络的方法。更平衡的供应链管理方法可以减少与供应链中断相关的风险和脆弱性。原创性/价值这项研究是独一无二的,因为它以多种方式概念化了CRS,从而扩展了我们对供应链稳定性的理解。
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a conceptual framework on resilience types in supply chain networks.Design/methodology/approach Using a complex adaptive systems perspective as an organizing framework, the paper explores three forms of resilience: engineering, ecological and evolutionary and their antecedents and links these to four phases of supply chain resilience (SCRES): readiness, response, recovery, growth and renewal.Findings Resilient supply chains need all three forms of resilience. Efficiency and system optimization approaches may promote quick recovery after a disruption. However, system-level response requires adaptive capabilities and transformational behaviors may be needed to move supply chains to new fitness levels after a disruption. The three resilience types discussed are not mutually exclusive, but rather complement each other and there are synergies and tradeoffs among these resilience types.Research limitations/implications The empirical validation of the theoretical propositions will open up new vistas for supply chain research. Possibilities exist for analyzing and assessing SCRES in multiple and more comprehensive ways.Practical implications The findings of the research can help managers refine their approaches to managing supply chain networks. A more balanced approach to supply chain management can reduce the risks and vulnerabilities associated with supply chain disruptions.Originality/value This study is unique as it conceptualizes SCRES in multiple ways, thereby extending our understanding of supply chain stability.
