Toward an integrated sustainable-resilient supply chain: A pharmaceutical case study

The Evolution of Resilience in Supply Chain Management: A Retrospective on Ensuring Supply Chain Resilience

“…), pharmaceuticals (Zahiri et al. ), agri‐food and wine (Flint et al. ; Stone and Rahimifard ), and electric power (Meerow and Baud ).…”

“…Interestingly, among the research citing our 2010 paper, the countries involved (origin of authors or application site) span the entire world, from industrialized nations to the newly advanced economies of BRIC-Brazil, Russia, India, and China, and even to developing countries such as Uganda, Kenya, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Pakistan. The industries chosen for application in the citing literature are also broad-ranging, including automotive (Carvalho et al 2012;Azevedo et al 2013;Scavarda et al 2015), pharmaceuticals (Zahiri et al 2017), agri-food and wine (Flint et al 2011;Stone and Rahimifard 2018), and electric power (Meerow and Baud 2012). This breadth suggests that supply chain resilience is a globally relevant construct, transcending any single industry or culture.…”

Where is supply chain resilience research heading? A systematic and co-occurrence analysis

“…Surprisingly, 78% of the studies considered enhanced SCR as a consequence/performance outcome, highlighting a substantial gap for research on operational performance, competitive advantage, customer value, and service performance. and Kleindorfer, 2009;Zahiri et al, 2017), social exchange theory (Stevenson and Busby, 2015), and systems theory (Blackhurst et al, 2011).…”

A hybrid MCDM-fuzzy multi-objective programming approach for a G-resilient supply chain network design

“…However, the reviewed literature showed that sustainability and resilience aspects have been considered individually (Redman, 2014) as none of the previous studies have presented an integrated approach which is simultaneously resilient in terms of robustness, agility, leanness and flexibility to efficiently cope with unexpected disruptions and green to handle the increasing global requirements in decreasing the environmental impact. The only three studies found in the literature considering resilience and green aspects was presented by Mari et al (2014); Fahimnia and Jabbarzadeh (2016) and Zahiri et al (2017). Mari et al (2014) proposed a multi-objective model that simultaneously optimizes total cost, disruption costs and carbon emissions throughout a supply chain network.…”

“…Mari et al (2014) proposed a multi-objective model that simultaneously optimizes total cost, disruption costs and carbon emissions throughout a supply chain network. Zahiri et al (2017) developed a possibilisticstochastic multi-objective optimization model to design a pharmaceutical supply chain network considering sustainability and unexpected disruptions. Similarly, Fahimnia and Jabbarzadeh (2016) formulated a stochastic fuzzy goal programming to embed sustainability and resilience responsibilities into supply chain network.…”
