  • Chapter
Handbook on Decision Making

Part of the book series: Intelligent Systems Reference Library ((ISRL,volume 33))

Abstract

The last decade has been extraordinary, as it is marked by a succession of disasters. The risks in supply chain are critical because of increasing outsourcing, off-shoring, product variety, lean manufacturing and supply chain security. Moreover, organizations and societies are at a greater risk of system failure because of the massive interdependency throughout the global supply chains. Due to those facts, continuity is the main concern of any supplier. This chapter gives an overview on how a better supply chain decision making with risk can be made so as to achieve supply chain resilience and business continuity.
