Roadmap to digital supply chain resilience under investment constraints
In a world bombarded with unprecedented challenges, it is paramount for organizations to embrace resilience in all their processes, albeit supply chain management. In the wake of ever-intensifying race for digital transformation, it is crucial for organizations to follow structured roadmaps towards building digital supply chain resilience (DSCR) through striking a balance between supply chain resilience (SCR) and supply chain vulnerabilities (SCV), in a manner that does not erode profits, neither expose the organization to increasing vulnerabilities. The paper addresses the evolution of SCR, the SCR and SCV drivers, and recommends investment in particular Industry 4.0 (I4.0) enablers. The outcomes of this paper are (a) a discussion of the complementary relationship between SCR and SCV drivers; (b) a thorough understanding of the possible contributions of I4.0 technologies towards DSCR; and (c) a roadmap for future research into the integration of SCR drivers and SCV constrained by the resilience fitness space (RFS).
