A grey-based DEMATEL model for building collaborative resilience in supply chain

Abstract

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the phenomenon of collaborative resilience through in-depth case study research in India. This study endeavours to identify and model the critical success factors of collaborative resilience. Design/methodology/approach Eight critical success factors of collaborative resilience were identified through literature search. Modelling and analysis of these factors was conducted using grey-based DEMATEL method. Data were collected from supply chain experts in Indian industries. Findings It was found that organizational factors like top management commitment and resilience system design exhibit highest causality on the entire system. Also, co-adaptive transformation and resilience goal alignment are most important for managers. Overall, this research provides a guideline and mechanism to build collaborative resilience in supply chains. Practical implications Through the identification of eight critical success factors, this research has related and grounded the concept of collaborative resilience into pre-exiting supply chain practices and concepts. Through rigorous quantitative modelling and analysis of these factors, this research provides a guideline to managers for building collaborative resilience in supply chains. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first study that has proposed the concept of collaborative resilience in supply chain and has conducted empirical research on the phenomenon in India.

Building resilience for sustainability of MSMEs post COVID-19 outbreak: An Indian handicraft industry outlook

“…A paper by Ref. [ 18 ] analyzed the motivation factors for building resilient supply chains. They concluded that the primary step in building collaborative resilience is to build internal resilience and then focus on the channel partners' efforts.…”

Evaluating interaction between internal hospital supply chain performance indicators: a rough-DEMATEL-based approach

“…Consequently, it is essential to produce a more practical method to evaluate interactions among HCPA under uncertain circumstances systematically. DEMATEL or some form of modified DEMATEL has been successfully used in several recent research works on supply chain management (Aggarwal and Srivastava, 2019; Li et al , 2020; Lin et al , 2018; Ortiz-Barrios et al , 2020). In this research, the author proposes a rough-DEMATEL approach for assessing the interactions among HCPA.…”

Application of fuzzy DEMATEL and fuzzy CODAS for analysis of workforce attributes pertaining to Industry 4.0: a case study

“…DEMATEL, an MCDM method, is proposed to develop the structural model showing causal relationship among criteria (Malekzadeh et al, 2016;Aggarwal and Srivastava, 2019). This method has been widely used for selection purposes (Singh and Bhanot, 2020).…”
