Tactical and Strategic Risks From Supply Disruptions in Competing Supply Chains

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Supply chain disruptions can lead to both tactical (i.e., loss of short‐term sales during a disruption) and strategic (i.e., loss of long‐term market share) consequences. We model the impact of a supply disruption on competing supply chains in which two firms compete for a limited backup supply.
