A supply chain resilience maturity model

Abstract

The concept of maturity model proposes that a process has a lifecycle, which is assessed on the basis of how the process is defined, managed, measured and transformed over time. A framework to develop supply chain (SC) resilience maturity model is proposed in this paper. This framework is based on two dimensions: supply chain resilience elements identified through previous literature, and supply chain management maturity levels defined by Lockamy III and McCormack (2004a). The SC resilience maturity model will be useful for organisations to assess their current state of supply chain resilience and also identify areas for further improvements.
