: The purpose of this research was to improve defense supply chain risk management processes through better intelligence integration. To this end, this research sought to capture the present state of academic and Department of Defense (DoD) thought regarding supply chain resiliency and risk management through an extensive review of current academic and DoD literature regarding supply chain risk management and intelligence doctrine. This review established the importance of supply chain risk analysis to ensuring supply chain resiliency and identified a significant gap in DoD acquisitions policy and guidance regarding intelligence support to supply chain risk analysis. This research culminated in the development of a methodology for intelligence professionals to use to support supply chain risk management processes. Specifically, this paper provides analysts a methodology to provide intelligence support to risk analysis for United States Air Force (USAF) weapon system supply chains based on the Intelligence Preparation of the Operational Environment process established in Joint doctrine. While the methodology developed in this paper is targeted at USAF weapon system supply chains, it is readily adaptable to other DoD acquisitions program supply chains. Additionally, this paper provides recommendations for future research to further improve intelligence support to supply chain risk management.

Supply chain (SC) risk management (SCRM) is a high-level concern for SC professionals. Supply chain risk management implementation is a difficult task because it requires involvement of various firms across the SC. For effective SCRM implementation, managers need to know the enabling factors and their relative importance. In this research, an empirical study on SC risk mitigation enablers was carried out in Indian automotive industry to examine the relationship between SCRM enablers and SCRM implementation. This relationship was tested using discriminant analysis. The research shows that the most important enabler is information visibility and it is followed by incentives alignment. Contingency planning is the third-most important enabler and last is risk management governance (RMG). Success of the SCRM implementation in terms of its efficiency and effectiveness can be assured by following the sequence of SCRM enablers suggested in this research.

The rapid development of technology has enabled companies to integrate internal and external partners working together in the supply chain network.

Based on analyzing the characteristics of supply chain risk management under the influences of knowledge, in this paper integrates basic theories and methods of knowledge management into the process of risk management, builds a knowledge-oriented supply chain risk management system model, and proposes relevant strategies, presenting references for practical application of knowledge-oriented supply chain risk management. By means of acquiring, storing, sharing, and transferring supply chain risk knowledge and knowledge innovation, it can ensure the knowledge supply for the whole process of supply chain operation management and risk management, effectively blocking the evolution and transmission of risks in supply chain, realizing the added value of activities in supply chain, and improving the performance of supply chain.

One of the most important problems that multinational organizations are dealing with in risk-oriented supply chains is efficiency assessment and choosing the best low-risk financial institution for financial assistance. We provide an integrated approach for evaluating the unpredictable, dangerous, and fragile arrangement of the financial sector, which directly affects the supply chain network's processing stages. This model is supported by fuzzy-soft tools. The real economy is currently under pressure from both the domestic economic crisis and the decline in international commerce. President Xi Jinping has often suggested stepping up initiatives to assist the real economy's high-quality growth. In this regard, the development of the model for supply chain financing offers a fresh approach to resolving the funding issues faced by businesses. To tackle the financial issues facing the marketplace, we should use the chain of custody finance model, but we also need to thoroughly understand the risks associated with it and how to manage them. False trade orders and insufficient control over core businesses are difficulties that the present logistics finance risk management must deal with. The World Wide Web, big data, and block chain technologies are all blooming, opening new avenues for risk management in block chain finance. As a result, the goal of this essay is to examine the features of supply chain finance based on the technology of block chain, examine the risks associated with financing supply chains, and debate how to use block chain innovation for supply chain banking risk management.[4] Risk Financing: To assist organizations in transferring or reducing supply chain risks, financial institutions offer risk financing solutions including insurance & alternative risk transfer methods. The creation of novel risk financing products, evaluation of their performance, and comprehension of the effects on the resilience of supply chains can all be the subject of research. Financial institutions provide supply chain financing options like factoring, discounted invoices, and supply link finance programmed that help businesses manage their working capital, improve cash flow, and lower the risk of supplier failure to pay or insolvency. The effects of different financing choices on supplier relationships, supply chain stability, and overall risk reduction may be studied. Financial institutions collaborate with businesses to detect and classify different supply chain risks. An extensive investigation of the supply network environment, encompassing suppliers, transportation, logistics, and market dynamics, is required in this phase. Data gathering techniques used may include questionnaires, interviews, & site visits. In the above rank one is axis, and the last one is Punjab national bank. Financial Institution in Supply Chain Risk Management In the above rank one is axis, and the last one is Punjab national bank.

Strategic supply chain planning and supply chain risk management are two fields of supply chain management that are inseparable nowadays. The ability to consider risks is essential to maintain business performance. In addition, integrating the different business departments’ visions in a common business vision is necessary to properly plan the future of a company. However, it is still a challenge for companies to design and maintain a decision-making process supporting strategic supply chain decisions that integrates risk management and unify business vision across departments. This paper relates an industrial experiment as an attempt to meet this challenge. This experiment was asked by a pharmaceutical company with the aim of supporting strategic decisions regarding its network of suppliers. It led to a decision-making process including the use of a computerized information system composed of a software for computations and a business intelligence software to easily make decisions. This process was put in practice on a pilot use case with two years old data. It resulted in the identification of several decisions that could have been made if the process was in operation two years ago, which is considered as a first validation of the approach. Finally, limitations have been identified regarding the data collection, opening avenues for future research on an innovative approach combining supply chain hyperconnectivity and event-driven principles.

Maintaining an effective risk management procedure can counterbalance a critical effect on supply chains. The Agri-food supply chain has characteristics that are unique and complex if compared with a conventional supply chain. Sustainability risk management in the supply chain is the key to a competitive organisation in the long term. The aim of this paper is to review current research on sustainable risk management in the Agri-food industry chain. These reviews were arranged in steps systematically, ranging from searching related to review of supply chain sustainability risk management (SCSRM), reviewing the general framework of SCSRM and the framework of Agri-food SCSRM. Selection of literature review papers in the period 2010-2019, and obtained 30 papers. Risk aspects were analysed using a multi-dimensional approach (economic, social, environmental, technical, and institutional) that influences the sustainability of the Agri-food industry. The results show that there are few studies focusing on risk management to achieve a sustainable supply chain system. Some studies only focus on Triple Bottom Line elements (economic, social, and environmental). Sometimes, these studies do not consider risks from other elements such as technical and institutional aspects that can be influence the sustainability of the Agri-food industry. Technical aspects such as the reliability of technological systems and institutional aspects as policymakers support sustainability in a business process. The contribution of this paper is to provide an initial theoretical framework to guide researchers in analysing risk through a multi-dimensional approach to sustainability.

An information processing perspective on supply chain risk management: Antecedents, mechanism, and consequences

In today's globalized business landscape, enterprises face increasing reliance on intricate supply chains to deliver goods and services efficiently. However, this interconnectedness exposes organizations to diverse risks, exacerbated by factors like natural disasters, geopolitical tensions, and technological vulnerabilities. The COVID-19 pandemic further emphasized the vulnerability of supply chains, prompting the urgent need for robust risk management strategies. Interstate conflicts also significantly influence supply chain risks, posing challenges such as trade disruptions and security vulnerabilities. To mitigate these risks, enterprises must adopt proactive risk management strategies, enhance supply chain resilience, and leverage technology-enabled solutions for real-time monitoring and response. The study examines supply chain risk management (SCRM) practices in healthcare establishments in Algeria and Ukraine, comparing countries with differing healthcare systems. The research aims to identify disparities in SCRM approaches and their consequences. Results reveal that while both countries prioritize technology for predictive analysis, Algerian managers emphasize collaboration with other institutions. The study suggests integrating SCRM technology into enterprise management system, prioritizing advanced technological solutions, scenario planning, collaborative partnerships, comprehensive risk management plans, continuous monitoring, and strengthening supplier relationships to enhance supply chain resilience and continuity in healthcare service delivery. These findings underscore the importance of efficient SCRM strategies in mitigating supply chain disruptions and ensuring uninterrupted healthcare services. By implementing these strategic measures, healthcare establishments can enhance their SCRM capabilities, thus promoting resilience, efficiency, and continuity in healthcare service delivery across diverse healthcare systems.

Purpose– As global supply networks proliferate, the strategic significance of supply chain risk management (SCRM) – defined as the identification, evaluation, and management of supply chain-related risks to reduce overall supply chain vulnerability – also increases. Yet, despite consistent evidence that firm performance is enhanced by appropriate fit between strategy and context, extant SCRM research focusses more on identifying sources of supply chain risk, types of SCRM strategy, and performance implications associated with SCRM than on the relative efficacy of alternative primary supply chain risk mitigation strategies in different risk contexts. Drawing on contingency theory, a conceptual framework is proposed that aligns well-established aspects of SCRM to present a rubric for matching primary alternative supply chain risk mitigation strategies (redundancy and flexibility) with particular risk contexts (severity and probability of risk occurrence). The paper aims to discuss these issues.Design/methodology/approach– Conceptual paper.Findings– The proposed framework addresses supply chain managers’ need for a basic rubric to help them choose and implement risk mitigation approaches. The framework may also prove helpful for introducing business students to the fundamentals of SCRM.Originality/value– The framework and associated research propositions provide a theoretically grounded basis for managing the firm’s portfolio of potential supply chain risks by applying appropriate primary risk mitigation strategies based on the specific context of each risk rather than taking a “one size fits all” approach to risk mitigation. An agenda for progressing research on contingency-based approaches to SCRM is also presented.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of supply chain risk management on supply chain resilience in the presence of Internet-of-Things as an intermediate variable. In other words, the study seeks to identify whether supply chain risk management completely affects supply chain resilience. Collecting data by a questionnaire from a sample composed of managers of Jordanian industrial firms, the results show that supply chain risk management has a direct and indirect effect on supply chain resilience through Internet-of-Things. These results do not support the hypothesis that supply chain risk management completely affects supply chain resilience and accepted the hypothesis that Internet-of-Things intervenes the effect of supply chain risk management on supply chain resilience. The study contributes to the literature through filling a research gap regarding the mediating role of Internet-of-Things in the relationship between supply chain risk management and supply chain resilience and contributes to the industry through instructing managers to adopt technologies such as Internet-of-Things to help their firms cope with supply chain risks.

The epitome of sustainable public procurement practices aligns with the principles of transparency, integrity, competitiveness, and efficiency, underpinned by the growing adoption of big data analytics capabilities. Big data analytics (BDA) enhances supply chain visibility, operational efficiency, and risk management; however, it has become evident that public supply chains in developing nations require robust digital infrastructure to effectively leverage the potential benefits of BDA. The research objective is to establish the effective role of Big Data Analytics (BDA) in enhancing sustainable public procurement practices (SPPP), aligning with the objectives of the Namibian Procurement Act 2015. The research further evaluates the factors impacting the technological, organisational and environmental context of public procurement principles through data-driven insights on the view of economic constraints and inequalities. The descriptive quantitative research design is rooted in a positivist perspective, focusing on an empirical case study of Namibia to assess the impact of BDA within the Technology-Organisation-Environment (TOE) framework. The research design employs a descriptive case study, enabling the exploration of factorial interrelationships. Diverse perspectives are integrated via stratified sampling, resulting in a sample size of 270 administered for data collection. Inferential statistics, including multivariate analysis, were used to analyse the data. The study revealed enhanced public procurement practices following the enactment of the Public Procurement Act 2015. ICT infrastructure, data quality, and system scalability are pivotal for BDA integration, despite hindrances such as leadership commitment, procurement capacity, procedural complexities, and resource constraints, which impede the shift towards sustainable procurement. These findings culminate in a TOE framework, which suggests that BDA's adoption offers significant strategic value, including improved decision-making, increased efficiency, enhanced transparency, and improved supplier performance in procurement. BDA's strategic effective role/value influences its adoption, leading to the transformation of sustainable public procurement practices in Namibia. This model systematically outlines the impact of BDA adoption on public procurement, showcasing how the TOE factors shape BDA's success in achieving SPPP. This research provides policymakers, public procurement professionals, and technology providers with practical insights to enhance the strategic value of BDA for sustainable procurement. This study contextualises the interplay of TOE factors for BDA adoption in public procurement for developing nations.

Contemporary supply chains are facing myriad types of risks caused by unprecedented risk factors. This condition motivates us to develop a contemporary supply chain risk typology to help identify and monitor newly surfaced risks and reveal emerging topics and research collaborators to help foster impactful research in supply chain risk management (SCRM). In this paper, we applied the scholarly network analysis approach to critically analyse an extensive list of 345 SCRM journal articles published from 2011 to 2020. We address two research questions: What is the contemporary supply chain risk typology? How can SCRM research be mapped comprehensively in terms of its emerging topics and research collaborators? First, we propose a novel and holistic classification of supply chain risks based on three interconnected perspectives, namely the characteristics, the location, and the impact of risks. Second, we identify five emerging SCRM topics. In each of these emerging topics, we identify the prominent collaborators and the core author, the main research themes, commonly used approaches and theories, and potential research agendas for bridging the identified research gaps. This paper contributes to the field of SCRM by aiding scholars and practitioners in managing contemporary supply chains resiliently and sustainably.
