Abstract
It is well known by researchers and practitioners t hat shared risks among actors support integration a nd collaboration across a supply chain. Moreover many authors have linked risk to performance contributio n. Nevertheless these ideas remain still theoretical a nd in literature applications are missing. The aim of this study is to develop a logical framework in which ri sk, performance and actors are connected each other . The goal is using the framework as a tool to recognize unbalanced supply chains and the best way to improve them. The benefit should be a better integration am ong supply chain actors. The logical framework has been thought and then applied in the case of an Integrat ed Logistic Support (ILS) service.
Highlights
Despite the attention that both practitioners and academics have paid in the last decades to the Supply Chain Management (SCM), many aspects still remain unexplored
Linking risk to the performance evaluation: it aims at individuating links between risk and performance and at analyzing them in order to understand if the supply chain is unbalanced from a point of view of risk
We run a short application of the proposed model to the Integrated Logistic Support (ILS)-SC context
Summary
Despite the attention that both practitioners and academics have paid in the last decades to the Supply Chain Management (SCM), many aspects still remain unexplored. In this study our aim is to propose an approach to increase integration and cooperation across a global supply chain. The main idea is that integration should be incentivized through a well- balanced risk among supply chain actors. This clue has been supported since by Miller (1992), who has firstly recognized a positive link between shared risk and cooperation, among supply chain actors. We have applied our approach to a global supply chain in the after sale services industry.
