各种规模的组织都容易受到关键材料供应中断的影响。尽管有大量文献研究了国家和政府等大型实体如何评估和减轻关键性，但以企业可行的方式解决公司层面关键性的工作却很少。这项工作利用文献回顾和案例研究分析来了解公司层面关键材料供应风险的影响，并确定显着的内部指标。总共审查了 42 项关键性研究，并将研究结果用于开发一个矩阵，以使用公司内部特定数据来评估和监控关键性风险。该矩阵包含三类风险，包括产品概念可行性、生产和盈利能力。它还包含四个关键业务职能，包括财务、采购、营销和生产。选择这些方面是因为它们与生产和销售制成品的所有企业相关，并且因为它们代表了单个公司控制范围内的动态。与大多数当前研究中强调的全球和国家层面指标不同，本研究中提出的指标源自企业可以轻松编制的数据。最后，这项工作通过检查完成上述矩阵所需的数据以及该信息的可能来源，考虑了组织在关键性风险评估和缓解中的作用。该分析的结果阐明了内部和外部以及微观和宏观关键性评估之间的差距，并为企业层面的关键性缓解提供了框架。
Organizations of all sizes are vulnerable to critical material supply disruptions. Although there is a significant body of literature that examines how large entities such as nations and governments can assess and mitigate criticality, there is very little work that addresses firm-level criticality in a way that is actionable for businesses. This work uses literature review and case study analysis to understand the impact of critical material supply risk at the firm level, and to determine salient internal indicators. A total of 42 criticality studies were reviewed and the findings were used to develop a matrix to assess and monitor criticality risk using internal firm-specific data. The matrix incorporates three categories of risk including product concept viability, production, and profitability. It also contains four key business functions including finance, procurement, marketing, and production. These aspects were chosen because they are relevant to all businesses that produce and sell manufactured goods, and because they represent dynamics that are within the control of an individual firm. Unlike the global and national level indicators emphasized in most current research, the indicators proposed in this research are derived from data that firms can compile with reasonable ease. Finally, this work considers the role of the organization in criticality risk assessment and mitigation through an examination of the data needed to complete the aforementioned matrix and the likely sources of that information. The findings of this analysis elucidate the gap between internal and external and micro- and macro- criticality assessment, as well as provide a framework for firm-level criticality mitigation.
