Triple-A Supply Chains: The Bridge Between Supply Chain Analytics and Supply Chain Resilience
研究供应链分析如何通过三A框架(敏捷性、适应性、协同性)提升供应链韧性,发现协同性虽能预测敏捷性但未直接增强适应性,为管理者优化分析投资提供指导。
This study explores the critical interplay between Supply Chain Analytics, the Triple-A supply chain framework (agility, adaptability, and alignment), and Supply Chain Resilience (SCR), addressing a significant gap in both theory and practice. While SCA has emerged as a transformative tool for managing disruptions through data-driven insights, its potential to foster resilience remains underexplored without the integration of dynamic organizational capabilities. Grounded in the dynamic capability's theory, this research examines how SCA enhances Triple-A capabilities, which in turn drive SCR by enabling organizations to sense, respond to, and adapt to disruptions. Using a dual-study approach, our findings show that while alignment strongly predicts agility, it does not directly enhance adaptability, challenging conventional wisdom that greater alignment inherently strengthens both capabilities. These results suggest the need to reconsider linear assumptions about capability building in supply chains. Multiple analytical approaches and robustness checks, including alternative model specifications, different estimation techniques, and subgroup analyses, were performed to ensure research rigour. The consistent results across these analyses confirm the robustness and generalizability of the study's findings. This study advances not only theoretical understanding by connecting SCA with the Triple-A supply chain and resilience but also provides actionable insights for practitioners to align investments in analytics with strategic organizational capabilities. By addressing these interconnections, this research contributes to bridging the gap between digital transformation and resilient supply chain practices, offering a robust framework for navigating uncertainty.
