This paper explores the supply chain (SC) disruption impacts to the performance outcomes of a semiconductor company during the Covid-19 pandemic and proposes appropriate risk mitigation strategies to overcome the crisis. The research uses a single case study methodology and 24 SC employees from Belgium and Germany who take part in the survey. To measure the effect of SC disruptions to the firm's financial performance, some quarterly financial statement data are used from 2018 to 2021. The regression analysis results show that there is no significant impact of SC disruptions to the firm's productivity and non-financial performance. The paired samples t-test suggests that there is no significant change in the firm's financial performance before and during Covid-19 either due to the market's political and economic stability or the semiconductor company develops effective SC risk management strategies.
本文探讨了新冠疫情期间供应链中断对一家半导体公司绩效结果的影响，并提出了适当的风险缓解策略以克服危机。该研究采用单案例研究方法，对比利时和德国的24名供应链员工进行了调查。为衡量供应链中断对公司财务绩效的影响，使用了2018年至2021年的一些季度财务报表数据。回归分析结果表明，供应链中断对公司的生产率和非财务绩效没有显著影响。配对样本t检验表明，由于市场的政治和经济稳定，或者该半导体公司制定了有效的供应链风险管理策略，公司在新冠疫情之前和期间的财务绩效没有显著变化。
