Resilient supply chains 4.0 - a research review

The purpose of this study is to illustrate knowledge diffusion in building resilient supply chains (RSCs) in terms of time, geography, and subject matter, and to identify the inherent potential inherent in creating RSCs using technology 4.0. Based on a quantitative and qualitative analysis of theoretical and empirical material, research gaps are identified and a conceptual framework for creating an RSC environment is outlined by juxtaposing individual technologies and dimensions of resilience. To the authors' knowledge, this is the most comprehensive approach given previous model proposals. Among other things, the paper defines the terms “resilient supply chain 4.0”. The obtained research results can serve both business practices and inspire causal research. In the context of market disruption, chain elongation, and globalization of operations, this topic will become more and more important every year. The collected material helps to raise awareness in this area.
