- Particularly in times of disruptive changes, companies need an early warning system for risks in their supply chains to gain relevant information in a timely manner. Furthermore, they require suitable action plans and strategies to help react when a risk occurs. Based on an in-depth case study at an automotive parts supplier producing electronic systems and lighting components, this paper develops a holistic supply chain risk management framework. After investigating the specific supply chain risks to support critical parts management, standardised processes and procedures are developed to improve the preventive supply chain risk strategy cycle, as well as the reactive critical parts management cycle.
