Abstract

Amid rising global disruptions, including pandemics, geopolitical conflicts, and economic shocks, supply chain resilience has become a strategic imperative. Despite growing attention, limited synthesis exists on how resilience strategies affect supply chain performance under varying conditions. This study addresses that gap through a meta-analysis of 52 empirical studies comprising 236 independent samples and 22,955 observations. Two key strategies, Adaptive Resilience (AR), focused on rapid recovery, and Transformative Resilience (TR), centered on long-term structural adaptation, were examined concerning resilience antecedents, contextual moderators, and outcome metrics. AR was found to be more closely associated with short-term operational recovery, while TR showed stronger links to sustainability and innovation. When applied jointly, these strategies yielded significantly improved performance outcomes compared to their separate implementation. Supply chain complexity emerged as a critical moderating factor, shaping the effectiveness of each strategy based on network characteristics. This study contributes a comprehensive, evidence-based framework that links resilience strategies to their drivers and impacts. Practical implications are also offered by guiding managers on tailoring resilience investments according to the type of disruption and structural features of their supply chains. The findings support the design of more agile and robust supply chains capable of withstanding future global uncertainties.
供应链弹性的适应性和变革性方法的元分析评估
在流行病、地缘政治冲突和经济冲击等全球破坏日益加剧的情况下,供应链弹性已成为一项战略要务。尽管受到越来越多的关注,但在不同条件下弹性策略如何影响供应链绩效的综合研究有限。本研究通过对52项实证研究的荟萃分析,包括236个独立样本和22,955个观察结果,解决了这一差距。研究了以快速恢复为重点的适应性弹性(AR)和以长期结构适应为中心的变革弹性(TR)两种关键策略,包括弹性的前因、情境调节因子和结果指标。研究发现,AR与短期业务恢复的关系更为密切,而TR与可持续性和创新的关系更为密切。当联合应用时,与单独实现相比,这些策略产生了显著提高的性能结果。供应链的复杂性成为一个关键的调节因素,塑造了基于网络特征的每种策略的有效性。本研究提供了一个全面的、基于证据的框架,将弹性战略与其驱动因素和影响联系起来。通过指导管理人员根据其供应链的破坏类型和结构特征定制弹性投资,还提供了实际意义。研究结果支持设计更灵活、更稳健的供应链,以抵御未来全球的不确定性。
