Essa cadeia foi escolhida devido a sua grande importância na economia brasileira. Para que essa análise fosse possível, foram identificados os principais riscos desta cadeia, bem como eventos climáticos recentes, suas possíveis influências e as ações mitigadoras adotadas pelos membros da cadeia. Foram feitas 17 entrevistas semiestruturadas com respondentes de todos os elos da cadeia: produtores, atravessadores, moageiras e indústrias de chocolates. Alguns dos resultados da pesquisa apontam que essa cadeia é afetada por riscos relacionados à carência de informação entre os elos, baixa manutenção dos equipamentos e pouca tecnologia na produção, baixa precisão de previsão de safra e, inclusive, problemas na qualidade e produtividade na produção. Mudanças de temperaturas, ventos e umidade também foram considerados como riscos nesta cadeia. Essas alterações climáticas aumentam a incidência dos outros riscos, por exemplo: pragas na produção, necessidade de importação, riscos financeiros e dificuldade logística. A seca de 2016 afetou diretamente a exposição e vulnerabilidade dessa cadeia aos riscos, tendo como consequências diretas a redução da produtividade e da qualidade das amêndoas. Além disso, este evento causou rupturas na cadeia, ocasionando a saída de alguns produtores e indústrias do mercado. Ações mitigadoras têm sido implementadas por associações que auxiliam produtores de cacau, indústrias moageiras e de chocolates e, por grandes produtores. Grande parte dessas ações são referentes a como os produtores podem lidar com as influências das variações climáticas em suas produções. Um dos objetivos dessas ações é que as fazendas possam aumentar a produtividade e qualidade de suas amêndoas, com inclusão de tecnologias para o manejo do cacau e de outras culturas na produção. Como consequência, moageiras e industrias de chocolate também poderão reduzir seus riscos, minimizando a necessidade de importar amêndoas e aumentando a qualidade de seus produtos. / The aim of this study is to analyze how members of the Brazilian cocoa supply chain perceive the influence of climate variations on other supply chain risks. This chain was chosen due to its importance in the Brazilian economy. Conducting this analysis entailed identifying not only the main risks to the Brazilian cocoa supply chain but also recent climatic events and their likely influence; the mitigating strategies adopted by supply chain members were also analyzed. A total of 17 semi-structured interviews were conducted with respondents belonging to all nodes of the chain: producers, middlemen, and the grinding and chocolate industries. Some of the research results indicate that the Brazilian cocoa supply chain is affected by risks related to a lack of information among its members, low equipment maintenance and poor production technology, low precision of crop forecasting, quality problems, and low productivity at production. Temperature variations, winds and humidity were also considered as chain risks. Climate variations increase the incidence of other risks, such as pests in production, import necessity, financial risks and logistical bottlenecks. The 2016 drought directly affected the exposure and vulnerability of this chain to risks, resulting in reduced productivity and quality of cocoa beans. In addition, the drought caused supply chain disruptions, which caused some producers and industries to leave the market. Mitigating actions have been implemented by associations that provide help to cocoa producers, grinding and chocolate factories, and large scale producers. Many of these actions are related to how producers can deal with the influence of climate variations on their crops. One of the goals of these actions targets the fact that farms can increase their cocoa bean productivity and quality by learning about additional technologies for handling cocoa and about new crops that could be incorporated into production. By adopting these strategies, the grinding and chocolate industries could also reduce their risks, minimizing the need to import cocoa beans while increasing the quality of their products.

Risk management in global supply chains : A review based on the impact of COVID-19

Suresh, Prashanth, Smirnov Patroshkov, Ivan January 2020 (has links)
Global supply chains (GSCs) are formed with the primary objective of cost minimization. Apart from cost reductions, GSCs also have other benefits like opening up new markets, reduction in the price of the product sold, and increasing production capacity. The benefits of GSCs are significant only when the environment it works in is stable. But in real life, almost all the systems are stochastic. While companies try to globalize their supply chains (SC), it is important to understand and evaluate the risks associated with global expansion. Several risk events arise in global supply chains and efficient management of these probable risk events plays a crucial role. Supply chain risk management (SCRM) is the implementation of strategies to manage both everyday and exceptional risks along the SCs based on continuous risk assessment to reduce vulnerability and ensure continuity. But there is a need to differentiate risk management of domestic and global supply chains due to additional risk elements involved in the functioning of GSCs. COVID-19 pandemic is one such risk event that has disrupted the GSCs of many companies around the world. Hence, the purpose of this study is to examine whether the framework of risk management in global supply chains needs reviewing after the manifestation of the COVID-19 pandemic. To fulfill the purpose, the study is divided into 2 sections. A literature review is done in supply chain management, supply chain risk management using the keywords mentioned below. Interviews were conducted with companies having GSCs. The interviews help in primary data collection for understanding the impact of COVID-19 on GSCs. Questions regarding company background, strategy for RM, the impact of COVID-19 on the GSC, and previous catastrophic impacts & future plans were asked. The collected data is processed and analyzed to arrive at findings. These findings are compared with theory to conclude by answering the research questions.  The findings prove that the existing risk management (RM) framework is sufficient to handle risk events such as pandemics. The benefits of implementing risk monitoring are visible with the comparison of the impact of RM strategies prior to and during the pandemic. Disruptive events such as COVID-19 cannot be completely avoided but can be mitigated. Several risk types occur due to catastrophic events as risk types are interconnected. Hence, all risk types must be evaluated for the RM plan. The impact is also dependent on local restrictions. Hence, it should also be considered in RM plans. Coordination mechanisms and robust strategies have shown that resiliency and flexibility improve and have reduced the impact of COVID-19 both proactively and reactively. So, it shows that the existing RM framework has the capability of mitigating the impacts of future pandemics and does not require updating.

Supply Chain Resilience: Disruptions in Global Maritime Transportation

Andresen, Vivien, Björn, Mathilda January 2022 (has links)
Supply chain resilience has become an important topic within supply chain management, as increasingly complex supply chains set out for increased risk in these networks. Supply chain resilience is a risk management approach that includes the ability to mitigate disruptions through specific capabilities. The previous disruptive events of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Suez Canal blockage-21 have highlighted the vulnerabilities of global trade and the need for more resilient supply chains. The purpose of this thesis was to analyse supply chain resilience and the need for dynamic and operational capabilities in the global maritime transport sector to mitigate impacts from slow-onset and sudden-onset disruptions. In specific, the vulnerabilities highlighted through the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Suez Canal blockage-21 over time. This study was conducted as a multiple case study investigating the maritime transport sector’s resilience during COVID-19 and the Suez Canal blockage-21. The data was triangulated through semi-structured interviews, industry podcasts, and business reports and further analysed using a grounded analysis approach. The study showed that the continuous disruptions on supply chains caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the Suez Canal blockage-21 generated economic consequences, congestions, and capacity constraints that the maritime transport sector could not fully mitigate. The study also provides evidence that severe impacts on supply chains were not necessarily caused by a lack of resilience, but rather the persistency of disruptions did not diminish over time. Even though the maritime transportation sector is considered flexible and agile in adapting to the new market situation, increased collaboration, integration, innovation, and digitalization were found necessary to improve the resilience of the maritime transport sector to become even better prepared for future disruptions.

Modeling and Solving the Outsourcing Risk Management Problem in Multi-Echelon Supply Chains

Nahangi, Arian A 01 June 2021 (has links) (PDF)
Worldwide globalization has made supply chains more vulnerable to risk factors, increasing the associated costs of outsourcing goods. Outsourcing is highly beneficial for any company that values building upon its core competencies, but the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic and other crises have exposed significant vulnerabilities within supply chains. These disruptions forced a shift in the production of goods from outsourcing to domestic methods. This paper considers a multi-echelon supply chain model with global and domestic raw material suppliers, manufacturing plants, warehouses, and markets. All levels within the supply chain network are evaluated from a holistic perspective, calculating a total cost for all levels with embedded risk. We formulate the problem as a mixed-integer linear model programmed in Excel Solver linear to solve smaller optimization problems. Then, we create a Tabu Search algorithm that solves problems of any size. Excel Solver considers three small-scale supply chain networks of varying sizes, one of which maximizes the decision variables the software can handle. In comparison, the Tabu Search program, programmed in Python, solves an additional ten larger-scaled supply chain networks. Tabu Search’s capabilities illustrate its scalability and replicability. A quadratic multi-regression analysis interprets the input parameters (iterations, neighbors, and tabu list size) associated with total supply chain cost and run time. The analysis shows iterations and neighbors to minimize total supply chain cost, while the interaction between iterations x neighbors increases the run time exponentially. Therefore, increasing the number of iterations and neighbors will increase run time but provide a more optimal result for total supply chain cost. Tabu Search’s input parameters should be set high in almost every practical case to achieve the most optimal result. This work is the first to incorporate risk and outsourcing into a multi-echelon supply chain, solved using an exact (Excel Solver) and metaheuristic (Tabu Search) solution methodology. From a practical case, managers can visualize supply chain networks of any size and variation to estimate the total supply chain cost in a relatively short time. Supply chain managers can identify suppliers and pick specific suppliers based on cost or risk. Lastly, they can adjust for risk according to external or internal risk factors. Future research directions include expanding or simplifying the supply chain network design, considering multiple parts, and considering scrap or defective products. In addition, one could incorporate a multi-product dynamic planning horizon supply chain. Overall, considering a hybrid method combining Tabu Search with genetic algorithms, particle swarm optimization, simulated annealing, CPLEX, GUROBI, or LINGO, could provide better results in a faster computational time.

Navigating Global Supply Chain Disruptions : A Case Study of Volvo Trucks for Enhanced Resilience and Risk Management in the Automotive Sector

Rensfeldt, Sanna, Kniele, Lea January 2024 (has links)
Global Supply Chains are fragile to disruptions and risks due to their complexity and the large number of players involved. In order to ensure the stability and effectiveness of the Global Supply Chain, it is therefore essential to identify and minimize potential risks and disruptions at an early stage. This study aims to explore the impact of disruptions on the Global Supply Chain and the enhancement of resilience in the automotive sector, with a focus on Risk Management strategies. The research objective is to analyze a case study within Volvo Trucks and identify Risk Management strategies for enhancing Supply Chain resilience in response to the Suez Canal Blockage. In order to achieve the objective of this research, a qualitative and deductive approach was employed to examine the subject. The existing frameworks identified in the literature review were utilized to inform the development of the interview guide for the data collection. The data collected from three semi-structured interviews with representatives of Volvo Trucks was subsequently analyzed to identify patterns between the theoretical framework and the practical case study. Given the significant impact of the Suez Canal Blockage on the automotive sector, a single automotive company (Volvo Trucks) was selected for examination of the effects on their Global Supply Chain. The study emphasizes the pivotal role of accurately identifying potential risks or crises in order to develop effective Risk Management strategies. The results show the importance of a proactive approach to Risk Identification, Assessment, Treatment and Monitoring to ensure Business Continuity and mitigate uncertainties. The findings of the analysis and conclusions to the research questions can be utilized as a basis for Risk Management strategies across the entire automotive sector. The findings of this study may prove beneficial for future research and for managers within the sector. The adapted framework of insights gained by Volvo Trucks can be used to guide Supply Chain Managers towards a more resilient Global Supply Chain. Furthermore, this framework could be employed in future research on Global Supply Chain resilience within the automotive sector to inform the studies. / Globala leveranskedjor är sköra för störningar och risker då de är komplexa och många aktörer är inblandade. För att försäkra stabilitet och effektivitet av dessa är det därför väsentligt att identifiera och minimera potentiella risker och störningar i ett tidigt skede. Denna studie syftar till att utforska påverkan av störningar på globala leveranskedjor och förbättringen av resiliensen i bilbranschen, med ett fokus på riskhanteringsstrategier. Studiens syfte är att analysera en fallstudie av Volvo Trucks och identifiera riskhanteringsstrategier för förbättrad resiliens i deras globala leveranskedja som en följd av blockeringen i Suezkanalen. För att uppnå detta användes en kvalitativ och deduktiv metod för studien. De redan existerande ramverken som identifierades i litteraturöversikten användes för att utveckla intervjuguiden för datainsamlingen. Den insamlade datan från tre semistrukturerade intervjuer med representanter från Volvo Trucks analyserades sedan för att identifiera mönster mellan de teoretiska ramverken och fallstudien. Eftersom blockeringen i Suezkanalen hade stor påverkan på bilindustrin valdes ett bilföretag som urval för fallstudien. Studien understryker den centrala rollen av att identifiera risker eller kriser för att utveckla effektiva riskhanteringsstrategier. Resultatet visar vikten av ett proaktivt arbetssätt för att identifiera risker, utvärdera dem, behandla och bevaka dem för att säkerställa kontinuitet i företaget och minska osäkerheten i leveranskedjan. Resultatet av analysen och slutsatserna utifrån forskningsfrågorna kan användas som bas för riskhanteringsstrategier inom bilindustrin. Resultaten kan också vara användbara för framtida forskning som teoretisk grund. Det nya anpassade ramverket av insikter från Volvo Trucks kan användas för att guida ledare inom området för leveranskedjor för att uppnå en mer resistent leveranskedja mot framtida störningar.

Supply Chain Risk Management : - En kvalitativ studie kring Covid-19s påverkan på den svenska verkstadsindustrin.

Nyman, Johan, Kniif, Victor, Bico, Hamza January 2020 (has links)
Abstract Background and problem statement: Since December 2019 the world have been largely affected by the new corona virus (Covid-19). The corporate industry has experienced the consequences of whole nations isolating themselves to contain the virus. The complex networks of today’s supply chains further complicate this situation. This has challenged companies expertise and preparedness within areas of supply chain risk management and further within procurement. Purpose: This study aims to identify how companies within the Swedish manufacturing industry work with risk management in supply chains mainly targeting risk management within procurement. Furthermore, the study aims to identify how these companies have been affected by the pandemic outbreak and how they have handled the situation by using risk management strategies. Based on this purpose two research questions were constructed. Method: A qualitative study design with some contribution from the quantitative study design have been carried out through semi-structured interviews. By analysing secondary data such as literature and peer-reviewed articles a theoretical framework was constructed. Results: Supply chain risk management is not formalized as a term within the industry, although it is safe to say that companies work with activities and strategies within the area. Strategies that proved effective during the pandemic outbreak were safety stock, geographical placement of suppliers, risk identification and risk analysis. Flexibility within the supply chains also proved to be vital to the success of the companies during this time.

Supply Chain Resilience for SMEs : An exploration of buyer-supplier relationships and the role of inventory management

Giss Ljungberg, Mathilda, Lindgren, Emma January 2024 (has links)
An increase in global supply chain disruption, such as the Covid-19 pandemic, has exposed vulnerabilities in supply chains. This has caused a reassessment of current supply chain management practices and highlighted a need for more resilient approaches. Despite an increased focus on this research area, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) are further challenged. Current practices are not well suited for these kinds of firms as they face resource and operational constrains. SMEs tend to build resilience through safety stocks, which provide a buffer against disruptions. However, maintaining inventories can be costly and inefficient. Furthermore, supply chain relationships have shown to enable collaborative efforts and increase visibility in the chain, thereby improving resilience. In light of this, the research focuses on exploring the effect of buyer-supplier relationships on SMEs resilience and how inventory management can align with SMEs efforts to build resilience. For this, a qualitative approach was employed, involving a case study of a manufacturing firm in Sweden. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with six employees and seven direct suppliers, along with observations and archival data. The findings highlight the importance of long-term relationships in fostering supply chain resilience (SCR), emphasizing the need for transparent communication and collaboration. Therefore, a managerial framework is provided to guide the assessment of these relationships fostering the resilient benefits of supplier relationships. Additionally, the findings indicate the need for SMEs to balance inventory management practices with risk mitigation efforts like dual sourcing. The research concludes by outlining the benefits and risk associated with buyer-supplier relationships, emphasizing the importance of internal structures, and how inventory management practices can enhance SCR for SMEs. / En ökning av globala störningar, såsom Covid-19-pandemin, har avslöjat sårbarheter i försörjningskedjor. Detta har lett till en omvärdering av nuvarande metoder för hur försörjningskedjan ska hanteras och framhävt behovet av mer motståndskraftiga tillvägagångssätt. Trots ett ökat fokus på detta forskningsområde utmanas små och medelstora företag (SMEs) ytterligare. På grund av deras resurs- och verksamhetsbegränsningar är nuvarande metoder inte fullt tillämpliga. SMEs väljer ofta att bygga motståndskraft genom säkerhetslager eftersom detta utgör en buffert mot störningar. Att upprätthålla denna typ av lager kan dock vara kostsamt och ineffektivt. Vidare har det visat sig att relationer i försörjningskedjan möjliggör samarbeten och ökar synligheten, därigenom förbättrat försörjningskedjans motståndskraft. Mot denna bakgrund fokuserar studien på att utforska effekten av relationen mellan köpare och leverantör på SMEs motståndskraft, samt hur lagerhantering kan linjera med SMEs ansträngningar för att bygga motståndskraft. Studien genomfördes i form av en fallstudie hos ett tillverkande företag i Sverige och antog ett kvalitativt tillvägagångssätt. Data samlades in genom semistrukturerade intervjuer med sex anställda och sju direkta leverantörer, observationer och arkivdata. Resultatet understryker vikten av långsiktiga relationer för att främja motståndskraft i försörjningskedjan och betonar behovet av transparent kommunikation och samarbete. Av denna anledning tillhandahålls ett ramverk för att främja de motståndskraftiga fördelarna med leverantörsrelationer. Ramverket har sitt främsta syfte att vägleda utvärderingen av dessa relationer. Vidare visar resultaten att SMEs behöver balansera lagerhanteringsmetoder med riskreducerande insatser. Slutsatsen av denna studie beskriver fördelarna och riskerna förknippade med relationen mellan köpare och leverantör, vikten av interna strukturer och hur lagerhanteringsmetoder kan förbättra motståndskraften i försörjningskedjan för SMEs.

Supply Chain Event Management – Bedarf, Systemarchitektur und Nutzen aus Perspektive fokaler Unternehmen der Modeindustrie

Tröger, Ralph 10 November 2014 (has links) (PDF)
Supply Chain Event Management (SCEM) bezeichnet eine Teildisziplin des Supply Chain Management und ist für Unternehmen ein Ansatzpunkt, durch frühzeitige Reaktion auf kritische Ausnahmeereignisse in der Wertschöpfungskette Logistikleistung und -kosten zu optimieren. Durch Rahmenbedingungen wie bspw. globale Logistikstrukturen, eine hohe Artikelvielfalt und volatile Geschäftsbeziehungen zählt die Modeindustrie zu den Branchen, die für kritische Störereignisse besonders anfällig ist. In diesem Sinne untersucht die vorliegende Dissertation nach einer Beleuchtung der wesentlichen Grundlagen zunächst, inwiefern es in der Modeindustrie tatsächlich einen Bedarf an SCEM-Systemen gibt. Anknüpfend daran zeigt sie nach einer Darstellung bisheriger SCEM-Architekturkonzepte Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten für eine Systemarchitektur auf, die auf den Designprinzipien der Serviceorientierung beruht. In diesem Rahmen erfolgt u. a. auch die Identifikation SCEM-relevanter Business Services. Die Vorzüge einer serviceorientierten Gestaltung werden detailliert anhand der EPCIS (EPC Information Services)-Spezifikation illustriert. Abgerundet wird die Arbeit durch eine Betrachtung der Nutzenpotenziale von SCEM-Systemen. Nach einer Darstellung von Ansätzen, welche zur Nutzenbestimmung infrage kommen, wird der Nutzen anhand eines Praxisbeispiels aufgezeigt und fließt zusammen mit den Ergebnissen einer Literaturrecherche in eine Konsolidierung von SCEM-Nutzeffekten. Hierbei wird auch beleuchtet, welche zusätzlichen Vorteile sich für Unternehmen durch eine serviceorientierte Architekturgestaltung bieten. In der Schlussbetrachtung werden die wesentlichen Erkenntnisse der Arbeit zusammengefasst und in einem Ausblick sowohl beleuchtet, welche Relevanz die Ergebnisse der Arbeit für die Bewältigung künftiger Herausforderungen innehaben als auch welche Anknüpfungspunkte sich für anschließende Forschungsarbeiten ergeben.
