@Husdal
This is an interesting article. As far as I see and if one have a closer look at anything, it will definitely have a supply chain for reason known or unknown to us.

Yes I will affirm it that a blog do have a supply chain.

Nice work. Keep it going!

Very good article , especially “Enablers of risk mitigation”, But I am still wondering How
1.Information Sharing – Here we Share info with other and depend on reliability of source

2. Trust Among Partners – we are depend on otheres

are low in Dependence .

I am techinal person , so my understanding may be wrong about these 2.

Thanks for your comment, Juha.

That is a very interesting analogy. I don’t see an immediate connection, but perhaps I need to read more. It is certainly worth exploring.

Hi Daniel and thanks for your comment.

You’re right. The framework is not particularly original. That said, it is a literature review, not an attempt at making a new framework. rather it is an attempt at synthesizing what other researchers have done before theme. The paper provides a framework for categorizing risks, but it does not provide much as to ways of managing these risks.

Hi Jan,

I really like the article from Rao/Goldsby as well, but how is the risk framework original? The “old” risks (Environmental, Industry, Organization) are in no way special or supply chain specific and the “new” risks (problem, decision maker) are hardly discussed…

This has an analogy to intelligence cycles, supply and demand, see e.g.:

http://www.eurojournals.com/ejsr_24_4_06.pdf
p.499
“…For the purpose of disseminating intelligence products from the right agencies to the
right end users, this fragmentation on both the supply and demand sides of the equation poses a host of dilemmas…”

Comment on Less cost and less disruptions? by Jan Husdal

Thanks for your comment, Daniel. As fast as possible and as cheap as possible is perhaps simply not possible (pun intended). I think it’s time to reverse the traditional “I want my goods NOW”-thinking. While it may not be applicable in all situations, many production and manufacturing processes can plan ahead and factor in the new “slow” lead time. Slower will definitely mean “more on time” rather than “less on time”. Maybe slow is the new lean?
