Emergency preparedness planning in developed countries: the Swedish case

Abstract: Purpose -To understand the needs of the supply-chain network when coping with permanent and temporary demands, this paper analyzes the Swedish emergency preparedness supply-chain network. This network comprises planning procedures and resources, as well as numerous organizations and other participants in civil society that take part in the system to cope with threats and ongoing crises. Planning constitutes a critical infrastructure because the system must develop the ability to shift supply chain functions fr… Show more

“…To respond effectively to exigencies, irms need to have a deep understanding of the underlying structure of their systems and how various actors are related to their systems (Hearnshaw & Wilson, 2013). If irms seek to adapt to the necessary changes, they need to re-conceptualize their SCs from simple linear systems towards more complex systems (Hearnshaw & Wilson, 2013;Kaneberg, Hertz, & Jensen, 2016;Touboulic, Chicksand, & Walker, 2014). Hearnshaw and Wilson (2013) argue that this re-conceptualization is important as a complex system can be modeled by numerous actors and interactions among them, not in the simple pattern of a few directed relations.…”

“…Economic impacts make for the predominant emphasis in such assessments (e.g., Oh et al, 2010b;Chopra and Khanna, 2015;Pant et al, 2016;Critical 5, 2015) as, for example, in the case of the Fukushima event in 2011 (UNISDR, 2017;Urlainis et al, 2014;Pescaroli and Kelman, 2017). Another emphasis is put on the need for improved preparedness in these countries (e.g., Kaneberg et al, 2016). Papers on disasters in developing countries (e.g., the earthquake in Haiti) focus on humanitarian impacts from CI failure (e.g., Oh et al, 2013;Urlainis et al, 2014;Pescaroli and Kelman, 2017).…”

“…Challenges and gaps detected are hardly related to CI "hardware" but focus on lacking or insufficient policies, improving individual and state preparedness to CI disruptions and the shortcomings of a limited technological perspective on CI. Policy challenges, such as the difficulties in coordinating CI among EU countries and unclear responsibilities, are addressed in both policy documents (CEPS, 2010;EC, 2006EC, , 2008EC, , 2012EC, , 2013aEC, , 2016a and research papers (Van Aaken and Wildhaber, 2015; Kaneberg et al, 2016;Rehak et al, 2016;Kitagawa et al, 2016), potentially resulting in murky responsibilities with unclear risk burdens and liability in crisis situations, as Van Aaken and Wildhaber (2015) describe it for the German context. Sage et al (2015) call for a socioecological understanding of infrastructure instead of focusing only on structural and technological stability.…”
