BUS606: Operations and Supply Chain Management

Supply chain risk has been set according to RBS (Table 1). In this structure, Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is following and one comprehensive hierarchical structure of supply chain risks (SCRBS) is presented below. The structure consists of 4 levels, which is designed in the first level of supply chain risks in 3 sets of external risks which have been divided into internal and external. In the second level of risks were shown in the form of seven subdiaries, the third level in 34 main categories and 320 over the quarter in the following categories (risk factors) according to RBS. The first three levels of the hierarchy have been shown in the table (2). It should be noted that the risk of failure in the design of the structure of the supply chain, several key points have been raised in the debate are identified and risk management. Including the fact that it has been tried, according to the definition in accordance with the literature identifying risk and risk management, and outcome of events may only be recognized as a risk. Because the consequences of their occurrence or imminent hundred percent is not defined as a risk, but they should be called a real phenomenon and how to deal with them is different from risk. Also we have tried to analyze and classify risks in such a way that on the one hand have the necessary integrity and on the other to minimize the interface between them and also risks classified as understandable and appropriate supply chain management literature, in summary logical and scientific association between risk management and supply chain management as supply chain risk management is maintained.
