Evaluation of enablers of supply chain resilience and responsibility in India during large-scale disruptions: an ISM-ANP approach

The healthcare and economic distress caused by large-scale disruptive events is most severe. The recent pandemic, SARS-CoV-2, has affected the entire world with its relentless energy. Only few supply chains (SCs) have remained resilient during disruptions. We highlight that these organisations do not just focus on SC resilience; the innate nature of being responsible has helped them stay afloat. Thus, we understand and identify various enablers of resilient and responsible SCs for survival during large-scale disruptions in India. 15 enablers and 30 sub-enablers for SC survivability are identified from literature and verified by experts. Integrated ISM-ANP approach and MICMAC analysis is adopted to develop a conceptual framework and prioritise enablers for SC survivability. The three most important sub-enablers in near term are advanced tracking and tracing system (0.0807), information sharing of business objectives (0.0776) and multi-way partnership (0.0776), respectively.
