Q2. What are the future works in this paper?
This study has several limitations which provide further research opportunities. Further research focusing on the “ swiftness ” component of the theory should be conducted. Further research could take other perspectives of risk into account to enrich risk management strategies. This research advocates a knowledge-based view of supply chain, the conceptualization and operationalization of which needs to be further explored.
Q3. What is the effect of quoting longer lead times?
Quoting longer lead times may lead to excessive congestion in the production process (e.g. Whybark and Williams, 1976) and compound the variations into production.
Q4. What is the effect of collaboration on the customer?
the collaboration which is underpinned by a commitment to the long-term relationship will motivate the customers to commit to their orders and make fewer unexpected changes.
Q5. What is the definition of supply risk?
Supply risk will have detrimental effects on outbound logistics, which will ultimately impact on the performance of the supply chain.
Q6. What is the definition of risk in the classic decision theory?
In the classic decision theory, risk is defined as the “variation in the distribution of possible outcomes, their likelihoods, and their subjective values” (March and Shapira, 1987, p. 1404).
Q7. What is the definition of the required knowledge?
The required knowledge covers not only the internal production processes but also the whole supply chain environment, including both upstream and downstream.
Q8. What is the effect of building up inventory?
building up inventory only further masks the real demand (Mason-Jones and Towill, 1998), increases the inaccuracy of the forecast and thus posits higher threat to achieving smooth operation.
Q9. Why are supply chains more easily exposed to risks?
On the other hand, due to increased globalization, higher customer expectations and environment volatility (Christopher and Peck, 2004; Norrman and Jansson, 2004), supply chains are more easily exposed to risks.
Q10. What is the importance of managing supply chain partners?
While managing supply chain partners (i.e. supplier and customers) is (increasingly) important, this study has shown that managers must not lose guard on the internal processes of the firms.
Q11. What are the prevalent and daunting risks to supply chains?
According to a global survey by Accenture in 2006, managers report that the most predominant and daunting risks to their supply chains are still those controllable risks which are associated with the performance of their supply chain partners (Byrne, 2007).
Q12. What is the effect of supply risk on supply chain performance?
Although there is no direct effect of supply risk on supply chain performance, the total effect through process risk is 0.61(-0.35) = -0.21.
