Every global crisis highlights the strategic importance of industrial
and non-profit supply chains for society. In terms of coping with
unforeseen and unpredictable events, supply chain resilience enables the
parties and networks involved to stay successful during and after the
disruption. Furthermore, a resilient supply chain contributes to the
sustainable competitive advantage of the entire value chain.
Written by scholars and practitioners alike, this book not only puts
forward a new framework for resilience in supply chain management, but
also presents best practice cases from various areas and industries. As
a particular highlight, it includes a Delphi study that gathers
state-of-the-art insights from supply chain leaders.
In addition to practical approaches, methods and tools, the book also
offers food for thought on the future of supply chain resilience. As
such, it offers a valuable resource for current and future managers in
the public and private sector, as well as researchers and students
engaged in this field.
