这项研究考察了供应链中供应链中断(SCD)的位置、公司使用SCD的经验和中断严重程度之间的关系。运用组织学习理论,我们认为,组织以前使用SCD的经验将减少未来中断的负面影响。然而,中断发生的地点(公司内部与公司外部)对未来中断的严重程度也起着至关重要的作用。我们考虑了两个衡量SCD严重程度的指标来量化对企业的负面影响的程度:(1)最初的资产回报率(ROA)和(2)随着时间的推移总的ROA损失。我们对262家经历了SCD的上市美国公司的表现进行了实证评估。我们的研究表明,当企业有和没有经历过类似事件时,内部和外部SCD对企业的影响可能不同。更具体地说,研究结果表明,当企业过去没有经历过类似的事件时,内部SCD比外部SCD与更高的中断严重程度相关。结果还表明,先前的经验显著降低了企业在内部SCD后遭受的干扰严重程度。
This study examines relationships between the location of supply chain disruptions (SCDs) within the supply chain, a firm’s experience with SCDs, and the disruption severity. Using organisational learning theory, we propose that an organisation’s prior experience with SCDs will reduce the negative influence of future disruptions. However, the location of disruption occurrence (internal to the firm vs. external to the firm) also plays a vital role in the severity of future disruptions. We consider two measures of SCD severity to quantify the extent of negative influence on firms: (1) the initial loss of return on assets (ROA) and (2) the total loss of ROA over time. We empirically evaluate the performance of 262 publicly traded U.S. firms that experienced an SCD. Our study shows that the influence of internal and external SCDs on firms can be different when firms do and do not have experience with similar events. More specifically, the results show that when firms have not experienced a similar event in the past, internal SCDs are associated with a higher disruption severity than are external SCDs. The results also show that prior experience significantly decreases the disruption severity suffered by firms after internal SCDs.
