A systematic mapping review exploring 10 years of research on supply chain resilience and reconfiguration

Supply chain resilience and reconfiguration are emerging disciplines that allow supply chains to recover from events and quickly return to normal or equilibrium levels of operations. This paper aims to provide a systematic mapping review to classify studies on supply chain resilience and reconfiguration. In total, 286 studies published between January 2009 and May 2019 were identified, of which 94 were selected for review. The analysis provided a number of thematic areas: descriptive view of the selected articles; geographical areas; type of research; research methods; and supply chain resilience enablers and reconfiguration characteristics. The major significance of this study is to provide an assessment of the state of existing knowledge on supply chain resilience and reconfiguration and to suggest future research directions. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first systematic mapping study conducted on supply chain resilience and reconfiguration literature.
