The proposed framework is based on the expanded application of two primary enablers of enterprise resilience: the capability of an enterprise to connect systems, people, processes and information in a way that allows enterprise to become more connected and responsive to the dynamics of its environment, stakeholders and competitors.Abstract:
This article proposes a framework for investigation into 'extended enterprise resilience' based on the key attributes of enterprise resilience in the context of extended enterprises. Such attributes, namely agility, flexibility, adaptability and connectivity, are frequently defined as supporting attributes of enterprise resilience, but the issue is how they can be more effectively applied to extended enterprises. The role of information technology in assisting connectivity and collaboration is frequently recognised as contributing to resilience on all levels, and will likewise be employed on the level of extended enterprise systems. The proposed framework is based on the expanded application of two primary enablers of enterprise resilience: (i) the capability of an enterprise to connect systems, people, processes and information in a way that allows enterprise to become more connected and responsive to the dynamics of its environment, stakeholders and competitors; (ii) the alignment of information technology with business goals. The former requires inter-and intra-level interoperability and integration within the extended enterprises, and the latter requires modelling of the underlying technology infrastructure and creation of a consolidated view of, and access to, all available resources in the extended enterprises that can be attained by well-defined enterprise architecture.read more

Supply chain resilience: definition, review and theoretical foundations for further study
TL;DR: There has been considerable academic interest in recent years in supply chain resilience (SCRES), and a timely review of the available literature on SCRES based on a three-stage systematic search that identified 91 articles/sources is presented in this paper.

Review of quantitative methods for supply chain resilience analysis
TL;DR: This paper conceptualizes and comprehensively presents a systematic review of the recent literature on quantitative modeling the SCR while distinctively pertaining it to the original concept of resilience capacity.

Supply chain resilience: Conceptualization and scale development using dynamic capability theory
TL;DR: The research develops a measurement instrument for SCRE and affirm that the SCRE scale potentially better predicts supply chain operational vulnerability (OV) and supply chain performance (SCP) and conforms to the “technical” and “evolutionary” fitness criteria of dynamic capability theory.

Strategic and operational management of organizational resilience: Current state of research and future directions
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used both a systematic literature search and co-citation analysis to investigate the specific research domains of organizational resilience and its strategic and operational management to understand the current state of development and future research directions.

Resilience, Adaptability and Transformability in Social–ecological Systems
TL;DR: The concept of resilience has evolved considerably since Holling's (1973) seminal paper as discussed by the authors and different interpretations of what is meant by resilience, however, cause confusion, and it can be counterproductive to seek definitions that are too narrow.

Loss, Trauma, and Human Resilience Have We Underestimated the Human Capacity to Thrive After Extremely Aversive Events?
TL;DR: Evidence is reviewed that resilience represents a distinct trajectory from the process of recovery, that resilience in the face of loss or potential trauma is more common than is often believed, and that there are multiple and sometimes unexpected pathways to resilience.
