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

“…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. …”
