Supply Chain Risk Management ("SCRM") is often discussed in business and academia but is still underdeveloped as a practical tool. Many studies have examined the effects of supply chain disruptions, and many studies have also produced tools for mitigating risk. However, there is still a need for an integrated, practical approach for SCRM that businesses can implement on an enterprise scale. Our thesis attempts to bridge this gap and produce a practical approach for corporations to deploy a SCRM strategy on an enterprise level. Through the use of supply chain visualization and catastrophe modeling software, we have developed a SCRM strategy for a large multi-national chemical company. Our SCRM framework focuses on four key steps: 1) defining the scope of supply chain disruptions; 2) mapping and visualizing the supply chain; 3) evaluating the probability of disruption; and 4) developing a strategy to create an economically resilient supply chain. by Diwei Xia and Kaiye Lu.
