Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Operation and supply chain risk management is a critical field that addresses disruptions, uncertainties, and vulnerabilities within complex global supply chains. The integration of optimization and decision analytics, maritime and digital logistics, logistics risk management, and information systems has become essential for mitigating risks and enhancing resilience. With the increasing complexity of global trade networks, sustainable production and consumption, platform-based market design, and demand analytics play pivotal roles in shaping effective risk management strategies. As supply chains become more interconnected, leveraging advanced analytics, AI-driven optimization, and cyber-physical systems provides new opportunities for improving agility and responsiveness. This Special Issue emphasizes systematic and interdisciplinary approaches to tackling modern supply chain risks, focusing on systematic approaches to operational and supply chain risk management. We welcome original research that advances theoretical, methodological, and empirical insights into modern risk management challenges in supply chain and logistics systems.
