Abstract

We use data from the US airline industry to test the roles of long-term commitment and supplier diversification in counteracting disruption risk. A network airline may delegate a route to its own subsidiary regional airline (long-term commitment), or multiple regional airlines (supplier diversification). We find that the usage of both strategies is positively associated with external disruption risks. The chance of sourcing from a single subsidiary regional airline is higher when such risk is high. Once a network airline delegates a route to its subsidiary regional airline, supplier diversification no longer generates much extra value in dealing with disruption risk.

中断恢复的采购策略：来自美国航空业的经验证据

我们使用来自美国航空业的数据来测试长期承诺和供应商多样化在抵消中断风险方面的作用。网络航空公司可以将航线委托给自己的支线航空公司（长期承诺），也可以委托给多个支线航空公司（供应商多样化）。我们发现，这两种策略的使用都与外部中断风险呈正相关。当这种风险高时，从单一支线航空公司采购的机会就会更高。一旦网络航空公司将一条航线委托给其子地区航空公司，供应商多元化就不再能在处理中断风险方面产生太多额外价值。

期刊介绍： Transport Policy is an international journal aimed at bridging the gap between theory and practice in transport. Its subject areas reflect the concerns of policymakers in government, industry, voluntary organisations and the public at large, providing independent, original and rigorous analysis to understand how policy decisions have been taken, monitor their effects, and suggest how they may be improved. The journal treats the transport sector comprehensively, and in the context of other sectors including energy, housing, industry and planning. All modes are covered: land, sea and air; road and rail; public and private; motorised and non-motorised; passenger and freight.
