Abstract

This study investigates the role of supply chain resilience in the knowledge economy, focusing on the impact of digital technologies and organizational information processing theory (OIPT) in managing supply chain disruptions. The research employs a mixed-methods approach, combining a survey of 200 supply chain professionals and in-depth interviews with experts in the field. The results indicate that organizations with higher information processing capacity can better anticipate and respond to supply chain disruptions, recovering 20% faster than their counterparts. Additionally, digital technologies such as blockchain, additive manufacturing, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things (IoT) significantly enhance supply chain resilience by improving information processing, reducing lead times, and increasing flexibility. The study also highlights the importance of effective collaboration and communication among supply chain stakeholders in managing disruptions and enhancing resilience. The findings contribute to the literature on supply chain resilience, digital technologies, and OIPT, providing practical recommendations for organizations seeking to improve their supply chain resilience in the knowledge economy.

在知识经济中驾驭供应链复原力：数字技术和组织信息处理的启示

本研究调查了供应链复原力在知识经济中的作用，重点关注数字技术和组织信息处理理论（OIPT）在管理供应链中断方面的影响。研究采用了混合方法，将对 200 名供应链专业人士的调查和对该领域专家的深入访谈结合起来。结果表明，信息处理能力较强的组织能更好地预测和应对供应链中断，其恢复速度比同行快 20%。此外，区块链、增材制造、人工智能和物联网（IoT）等数字技术通过改善信息处理、缩短交付周期和提高灵活性，大大增强了供应链的恢复能力。研究还强调了供应链利益相关者之间的有效合作与沟通在管理中断和提高复原力方面的重要性。研究结果为有关供应链复原力、数字技术和 OIPT 的文献做出了贡献，为寻求在知识经济时代提高供应链复原力的组织提供了实用建议。

期刊介绍： In the context of rapid globalization and technological capacity, the world’s economies today are driven increasingly by knowledge—the expertise, skills, experience, education, understanding, awareness, perception, and other qualities required to communicate, interpret, and analyze information. New wealth is created by the application of knowledge to improve productivity—and to create new products, services, systems, and process (i.e., to innovate). The Journal of the Knowledge Economy focuses on the dynamics of the knowledge-based economy, with an emphasis on the role of knowledge creation, diffusion, and application across three economic levels: (1) the systemic ''meta'' or ''macro''-level, (2) the organizational ''meso''-level, and (3) the individual ''micro''-level. The journal incorporates insights from the fields of economics, management, law, sociology, anthropology, psychology, and political science to shed new light on the evolving role of knowledge, with a particular emphasis on how innovation can be leveraged to provide solutions to complex problems and issues, including global crises in environmental sustainability, education, and economic development. Articles emphasize empirical studies, underscoring a comparative approach, and, to a lesser extent, case studies and theoretical articles. The journal balances practice/application and theory/concepts.
