In recent years, the area of supply chain resilience has received heightened attention as a plethora of new risks, ranging from climate change to cybersecurity and infectious diseases, have emerged as serious threats to operational performance. The COVID-19 pandemic, in particular, has exposed the fragility of global supply chains in many sectors. Given these concerns, supply chain networks, including those designed based on the principles of lean philosophies, are increasingly being re-examined as firms grapple with the challenge of strengthening the capacity to withstand, absorb, and rebound from unexpected shocks. Addressing the urgency of this imperative, this study presents a novel framework-based on theories and concepts in the systems engineering (SE) and supply chain resilience domains to enhance the resilience implementation capabilities that are lacking in many of today's firms. By applying a Grounded Theory methodology, this study develops and validates a conceptual model that identifies six core attributes fundamental to developing resilience capabilities in complex supply chains. The study concludes by providing examples of, and insights into, the role of these attributes in building supply chain resilience.
近年来，供应链韧性领域受到了更多关注，因为从气候变化到网络安全和传染病等大量新风险已成为运营绩效的严重威胁。特别是新冠疫情暴露了许多行业全球供应链的脆弱性。鉴于这些担忧，包括基于精益理念设计的供应链网络在内，随着企业努力应对加强抵御、吸收意外冲击并从中反弹能力的挑战，这些网络正越来越多地被重新审视。为应对这一紧迫需求，本研究提出了一个基于系统工程（SE）和供应链韧性领域的理论与概念的新颖框架，以增强当今许多企业所缺乏的韧性实施能力。通过应用扎根理论方法，本研究开发并验证了一个概念模型，该模型确定了复杂供应链中发展韧性能力的六个核心属性。研究最后给出了这些属性在构建供应链韧性中的作用示例及见解。
