“…Future work may extend the analysis to incorporate perspectives of additional stakeholder groups through consideration of their values. One method is to assess the influence of multiple groups of stakeholders through stakeholder mapping (Almutairi et al, 2018(Almutairi et al, , 2019 ). Another method is to apply an iterative analysis that incorporates benefits of disaggregation of stakeholder values (Hassler et al, 2020).…”

“…The details are realistic and derived from experience, though on a nonattribution basis. This manuscript presents a methodology for identifying the requirements for automating tool asset management and identifying potential disruptions to the prioritization of the requirements advancing past work (Almutairi et al, 2018(Almutairi et al, , 2019Hassler et al, 2020;Lambert & Turley, 2005). By demonstrating a methodology for tool-control system acquisition for a department of corrections with many facilities accommodating populations as well as a large workforce, this article addresses broad areas of application.…”

Real-time tracking of tool and equipment inventories is a critical function of many organizations and sectors. For prisons and correctional facilities, tracking and monitoring of assets such as cookware, hardware, keys, janitorial equipment, vocational/technical specialty tools, etc., is essential for safety, security, trust, efficiency, education, etc. The performance of automated systems for this purpose can be diminished by a variety of emergent and future sociotechnical factors alone and in combination. This article introduces a methodology for contractor evaluation and selection in acquisition of innovative asset management systems, with an emphasis on evolving system requirements under uncertainty. The methodology features a scenariobased preferences analysis of emergent and future conditions that are disruptive to the performance of the asset-control system. The conditions are across technologies, operating environments, regulations, workforce behaviors, offender behaviors, prices and markets, organizations, cyber threats, etc. The methodology addresses the influence and interaction of the conditions to disrupt system priorities. Examples include: (i) infectious disease disrupting priorities among requirements and (ii) radio-frequency identification (RFID) and wireless-technology innovations disrupting priorities among stakeholders. The combinations of conditions that most and least matter for the system acquisition are characterized. The methodology constitutes a risk register for monitoring sources of risk to project performance, schedule, and cost throughout the system lifecycle. The results will be of interest to both practitioners and scholars engaged in systems acquisition as the pandemic interacts with other factors to affect risk, uncertainty, and resilience of organizational missions and operations.

“…During the decision conferencing, the facilitator(s) discusses with the stakeholders the number of top highly ranked initiatives that are important for their market (e.g., the top three most highly ranked initiatives). This approach is common in the risk analysis field (Almutairi et al., ; Connelly et al., ; Thorisson et al., ). For instance, x 20 , provide energy standards for different organizations and PEV owners , has the highest rank at the baseline scenario, followed by x 21 , study the impact of PEV batteries on technology .…”

“…Ayyub () states that massive savings could be generated from improving system resilience at different levels, including the structural, network, and community levels, and this savings could be preserved by an appropriate definition of resilience. Recent developments in risk analysis and systems engineering have dealt with the topic of system resilience for physical infrastructure systems by addressing the influence of scenarios on priorities for systems in several fields of application (Almutairi, Thorisson, Wheeler, Slutzky, & Lambert, ; Connelly, Thorisson, Valverde, & Lambert, ; Hamilton, Lambert, Connelly, & Barker, ; Lambert, ; Thorisson, Lambert, Cardenas, & Linkov, ; You, Connelly, Lambert, & Clarens, ), where the term priorities has been defined as any set of assets, projects, policies, units, or other entities that matter to stakeholders who are involved in the analysis. However, in risk analysis, little or no attention has been given to enterprise resilience (Connelly, ).…”

The future of energy mobility involves networks of users, operators, organizations, vehicles, charging stations, communications, materials, transportation corridors, points of service, and so on. The integration of smart grids with plug-in electric vehicle technologies has societal and commercial advantages that include improving grid stability, minimizing dependence on nonrenewable fuels, reducing vehicle emissions, and reducing the cost of electric vehicle ownership. However, ineffective or delayed participation of particular groups of stakeholders could disrupt industry plans and delay the desired outcomes. This article develops a framework to address enterprise resilience for two modes of disruptions-the first being the influence of scenarios on priorities and the second being the influence of multiple groups of stakeholders on priorities. The innovation of this study is to obtain the advantages of integrating two recent approaches: scenario-based preferences modeling and stakeholder mapping. Public agencies, grid operators, plug-in electric vehicle owners, and vehicle manufacturers are the four groups of stakeholders that are considered in this framework, along with the influence of four scenarios on priorities.

“…In other cases, such preparation for unprecedented large‐scale high consequence but low probability events, a variety of policies and responses can be explored using scenarios . In contrast to traditional risk analysis focusing on probabilities and consequences, scenario‐based preferences has focused on quantifying the influence of scenarios on priorities …”

Large-scale logistics systems operate under uncertainties of schedule, cost, environmental impacts, reliability, and others rendering it critical for system operations to consider emergent and future conditions involving markets, technologies, environment, and organizations. Business process modeling is used widely to document the activities of an enterprise. Successful analysis of business processes requires explicit accounting for and evaluation of sources of potential disruptive risk. Previous research in the journal integrated risk identification to business process models. This paper creates a framework that evaluates the schedule disruption potential of identified sources of risk in logistics systems with the modeling of the associated business processes. The framework is demonstrated on a scheduling process at a marine container port. The methods first described in this paper should be integrated to software applications that diagram and analyze business processes of large-scale systems.
