Sammanfattning
In this thesis, we investigate supply chain resilience strategies and metrics. According to our
knowledge, simulation-free research on the assessment of supply chain resilience is scarce.
There are a few resilience strategies that are frequently mentioned, such as multiple sourcing
and localization, but there are also a large number of other strategies available. This report
compiles a broad framework of available supply chain resilience strategies developed based
on both the literature and interviews with eleven Assa Abloy Entrance Systems respondents.
It can be difficult to measure and comprehend the effects of supply chain resilience, to enable
this understanding, a list of 34 metrics indicative of resilient supply chains is presented.
Additionally, effects of recent disruptions on Assa Abloy Entrance Systems supply chain have
been investigated and summarized into a list of symptoms. We believe that the most valuable
implications of this research are the comprehensive lists of metrics and strategies that supply
chain managers can use to broaden their understanding of available alternatives.
