Purpose The purpose of this study is to identify the prescribed formative elements of supply chain resilience (SCR) in literature, to compare them with the unique characteristics of high reliability organisations (HROs) and derive lessons useful for improving SCR. Design/methodology/approach Two systematic literature reviews are carried out as follows: one on SCR and the other on HRO, which identified 107 studies and 18 papers, respectively. The results from the review are presented, analysed and synthesised. Findings Findings suggest that despite significant similarities in some of the proposed formative elements for SCR and the characteristics of HROs, the strong managerial commitment exhibited in HROs is absent in SCR literature. More importantly, the most cited characteristic of HROs, which is their flexible decision making structure is pointed out as a prima lesson towards developing resilience in supply chains. Practical implications A decision making framework to facilitate flexible decision making for supply chains during crisis is presented. Further, practical lessons are pointed out from principles common to both streams of literature such as redundancy, human resource management, collaboration, agility, flexibility, culture and risk avoidance that can be implemented in supply chains. Originality/value This paper is the first study to systematically review HROs, adapt a HRO decision making framework and also apply the Cynefin framework to SCR. This, therefore, provides the basis to launch further research into the use of these theories and the role of decision-making in SCR creation.

The concept of supply chain resilience has arisen in response to changing conditions in the global market environment. Although supply chain resilience building is gaining increasing interest among the professional public and business practice, supporting decision-making in supply chain resilience building is still in its infancy. This article aims to present a mathematical model of the supply chain based on Markov chains to assess the impact of funds allocated to strengthening the supply chain’s resilience to its overall performance and thus support decision-making in the field. Mathematical model assumptions are presented, then a mathematical model of a linear supply chain is developed and generalized, tested and methodological recommendations are presented. To support the use of the model, a set of managerial implications is presented, benefits and limitations are discussed, and further research direction is defined.
