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. Thanks for your comment, Juha.

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 Daniel and thanks for your comment.

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…

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? Thanks for your comment, Daniel.

The article and your post points out the misunderstanding that "on time"="as fast as possible". On time is simple according to plan. And no suprise, a slower speed of freight leads to a small increase in stock and thereby lesser risk for out of stock. Furthermore does the article imply that the collateral benefit of slower shipments are better for the environment. Good post, Jan!

In the context of the above post, having ships spend more time at sea is perhaps likely to increase the amount of refuse that these ships leave behind? Unless they have a refuse recycling program onboard, which I assume that every environment-conscious shipping does have in place. CO2 isn't everything, though, you're right about that. My overall point was to highlight the fact that faster isn't always better. You’re right, Ron.

The oceans are dying not only as a result of warming, but also because of pollution. So, we need to talk not only about CO2, but also about the fuel, waste oil and refuse that ends up in the ocean from the vast and growing fleet of container ships and tankers.
