A framework for understanding the path to achieve high resilience of maritime supply chain by Xiuqian Chen, Liangyong Chu, Mengyao Wang, Qion Chen

“…The paper proposes a methodological framework based on the structural equation model (SEM), Necessary Condition Analysis (NCA), fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA), and utilizes questionnaire data from the maritime industry in China to evaluate the resilience in MSC. The computational results indicate that: (1) The high resilience of MSC is the result of the synergistic interaction among multiple factors, and these factors boost MSC resilience through diverse paths; (2) There are four pathways for high MSC resilience: the ‘collaboration + carbon reduction + digitization’ path, the ‘early warning + collaboration’ path, the ‘agility + early warning’ path, and the ‘carbon reduction’ path; (3) Digitization level can play a catalytic role in increasing the resilience of MSC by helping other factors. …”
