GLOBAL SUPPLY CHAIN COMPLEXITY AND RISK MANAGEMENT

Order Description

This assignment consists of a research paper. The task involves research on quantitative models in supply chain risk and disruption management. The research should focus on different categories of risks and disruptions, critical review, quantitative models to handle supply chain risks and disruptions and their contributions and limitations, research gaps in the literature and future research direction for better resilient supply chain.

You need to review the literature as a researcher to explore and critically analyse the quantitative models in supply chain risk and disruption management. You should also consider ethical and social responsibility aspect in risk management. We are looking for a creative review paper for this assessment.
You should review the relevant literature from different databases such as scopus, google scholar, and publisher sites (science direct, emerald, springer and so on). You should select 80 papers (most of them should be from 2008- present) for this research paper. After the analysis of the published papers in the field, you also need to suggest a future research direction. The research paper should consist following sections:
a) Introduction
b) Literature review on quantitative models
c) Ethical and social responsibility for risk management
d) Analysis
e) Future research direction
f) Discussion and Conclusion
Structure and format of paper
1) Title page
2) Abstract
Why Quantitative models are important?
What is the limitation of current study?
What are the most important findings?
3) Introduction
The introduction includes the background and rationale of the research. You should also explain the risk and disruption in supply chain systems with their impact in business. Why it is necessary to manage risk and disruption in supply chain systems? How this paper has been organized? You should cite few papers here.
4) Literature review on quantitative models
Here you should identify the most relevant papers from the literature. You can categorize them in different sub-categories (such as demand risk, process risk and supply risk). You should develop a story for each category to understand the research progress. You also explain the contribution and limitation of those studies.

5) Ethical and social responsibility for risk management. In this section, you focus on ethical and social risk in the business. You should study some relevant papers (at least 5) from the literature which consider ethical and social responsibility aspects in risk management. You do not need to consider quantitative models for this section.

You should answer following questions.
What are the ethical responsibility principles in risk management?
What are the social responsibility practices in risk management?
What are the frameworks applied for business practice in terms of ethical and social responsibility?

6) Analysis
You should analyse the papers quantitatively here. You can analyse the papers again with some other parameters (such as journal name, author name, publish year, aspect of risk and disruption and so on). You should use some graphs and table to describe your findings.

7) Future research direction
In this section, you should summarise the review and findings. You should also summarize the contribution and limitations of the studies. Based on those findings, you should suggest the future research direction.

8) Discussion and Conclusion
You need to discuss your findings and how the findings can be helpful for the research. You should also discuss if there any limitation of the study.
