“…Scholars and practitioners generally agree that operational disruptions materially and negatively impact company performance on average (Sheffi 2005, Hendricks and Singhal 2005, World Economic Forum 2013. There is less agreement, however, on how we should classify and forecast such disruptions (Kleindorfer and Saad 2005, Tang 2006, Wagner and Bode 2006, Sodhi et al 2012. Researchers are only beginning to understand which disruptions have the greatest impact on firm performance.…”

Firms are exposed to a variety of low-probability, high-impact risks that can disrupt their operations and supply chains. These risks are difficult to predict and quantify; therefore, they are difficult to manage. As a result, managers may suboptimally deploy countermeasures, leaving their firms exposed to some risks while wasting resources to mitigate other risks that would not cause significant damage. In a three-year research engagement with Ford Motor Company, we addressed this practical need by developing a novel risk-exposure model that assesses the impact of a disruption originating anywhere in a firm's supply chain. Our approach defers the need for a company to estimate the probability associated with any specific disruption risk until after it has learned the effect such a disruption will have on its operations. As a result, the company can make more informed decisions about where to focus its limited risk-management resources. We demonstrate how Ford applied this model to identify previously unrecognized risk exposures, evaluate predisruption riskmitigation actions, and develop optimal postdisruption contingency plans, including circumstances in which the duration of the disruption is unknown.

“…Sob esta perspectiva, os riscos referentes ao fornecimento têm sido os mais abordados por tais pesquisas. A busca por estratégias visando melhorias do processo de fornecimento, principalmente no que diz respeito a reduzir interrupções e custos, são as questões mais focadas nesta subcategoria (CAVINATO, 2004;TANG, 2006a;TOMLIN, 2006;PANELLI;UPTON, 2000;ZSIDISIN, 2003;ELLRAM, 2003;. Ainda neste contexto, cabe ressaltar os trabalhos de Svensson (2002ade Svensson ( , b, c, d, 2003a, os quais destacam a importância da colaboração entre empresas como forma de diminuir as vulnerabilidades, tanto no fornecimento de recursos como no nível de serviço aos clientes.…”

“…No cenário internacional, existem indícios de que as pesquisas envolvendo modelos para gestão de riscos em cadeias de suprimentos devem seguir três perspectivas diferentes, a saber: i) modelos que contemplem a gestão de riscos em cadeias globais (KOUVELIS et al, 2011); ii) modelos com inclusão de métodos quantitativos para análise de riscos (TANG, 2006a;); e iii) modelos capazes de analisar com maior precisão o impacto dos riscos no desempenho das cadeias (AGUIAR, 2010). Ainda com relação ao cenário internacional, cabe destacar um fluxo crescente de pesquisas sobre gestão de riscos em cadeias de suprimentos realizadas por países como China, Índia e Malásia.…”

Resumo: O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar uma revisão bibliográfica, que possa ser considerada completa e inédita na literatura científica nacional, tendo como foco modelos para gestão de riscos em cadeias de suprimentos. Para tanto, foram revisados 103 artigos científicos publicados entre 2000 e 2012. Inicialmente, buscou-se categorizar os tipos de riscos abordados nos artigos científicos segundo a descrição proposta por Christopher e Peck (2004), a saber: internos à empresa focal (operações, processo e controle); externos para a empresa focal, mas internos para a cadeia (fornecimento e demanda); e externos à cadeia (macroambiente). Buscou-se, também, identificar as etapas elementares na composição de um modelo para gestão de riscos em cadeias de suprimentos. Uma vez categorizados os tipos de riscos e identificadas as quatro etapas elementares, efetuou-se uma análise a partir de três perspectivas: i) as opções de modelos disponíveis na literatura para a prática de tal gestão, considerando-se os tipos de riscos e etapas que os compõem; ii) um modelo final a ser proposto; e iii) elementos que podem ser acrescentados ao modelo final. As principais contribuições deste trabalho dizem respeito a possibilitar melhor entendimento dos tipos de riscos que podem incidir sobre uma cadeia de suprimentos, discutir os modelos mais adequados para geri-los, além de oferecer diretrizes para futuras pesquisas na temática em questão.Palavras-chave: Riscos.

“…There is universal harmony that global supply chains are torment from the disruption of supply chain function and reduced supply chain efficiencies (Myers et al, 2006;Tang, 2006;Bogataj and Bogataj, 2007). Thus obscurities with any member of a chain inflate to give penalties for all the other members.…”

“…The global supply executives have accomplished several supply chain proposals to enhance profits (e.g., increased product variety, frequent launch of new products) and cut costs (e.g., single sourcing, outsourcing, just-in-time inventory system, vendor-managed inventory (Zsidisin and Smith, 2005;Wagner and Bode, 2006;Tang, 2006;Craighead et al, 2007). Such measures have capability to build lean and efficient supply chains in a stable environment, but these measures make supply chains more prone to disruptions (Hauser, 2003).…”

To inflate monetary earnings, many organisations execute initiatives such as comprehensive reach of supply chains, amplified outsourcing, shorter product life cycles, reduced buffers and centralisation. These initiatives are effective in stable surroundings, but they could make supply chain vulnerable to various types of disruptions. The main thrust of this research is, to propose a conceptual model for endowing deeper knowledge of how uncertainty from suppliers, customers and existing supply chain structure amplifies vulnerability and consequently increases supply chain risk exposure. In accordance with fitness landscape theory, this paper accepts a complex systems perspective to view supply chain organisations and understand their capabilities. It focuses on diminishing the vulnerability of supply chain systems and the ability to design systems to be more resilient to change.Keywords: supply chain management; supply chain resilience; vulnerability; supply chain risk.Reference to this paper should be made as follows: Soni, U., Jain, V. and Salmador, M.P.
