Zusammenfassung
This research identifies the risk screening activities needed to identify supply risks
early, to prevent risks from negatively affecting the buying organization and to address
those risks as they occur. They are analyzed for environmental, financial, operational
and strategic supply risks. We found twenty-four variables that serve as the
cornerstone of a successful supply risk management system. Also, we found that the
mere identification of risks does not contribute directly to supply risk management
performance; whereas risk monitoring and risk mitigation significantly increase
supply risk management performance. With this research we contribute to the development
of a more holistic supply risk management system, while practically filling-in
the different stages of supply risk management. Future research should focus especially
on the development of risk monitoring strategies in supply risk management.
