Supply chain collaboration in the presence of disruptions: a literature review

Abstract

The supply chain collaboration has gained significant attention, especially in the presence of disruptions. This paper presents findings from a systematic literature review to answer the question: how collaborations help supply chains respond and recover from a disruption. A total of 157 papers from the year 2000 were studied. The thematic and descriptive analysis identified usefulness, used research methodologies, collaboration mechanisms, and influential factors in collaboration. This comprehensive review provides in-depth insights into the current state of literature, proposes a research framework, and identifies several future research directions. It also highlights the role of each collaboration mechanism based on each severity level of disruptions.

Keywords:

• Supply chain resilience
• disruption management
