Resilience strategies to recover from the cascading ripple effect in a copper supply chain through project management

As the supply chains are growing and becoming more interdependent, vulnerability chances of chain failure also increases. The industry is severely affected due to COVID-19 outbreak practitioners focusing on minimizing ripple effect disruption made economy. Considering unprecedented situation, research motivated analyse in a multi-echelon investigate performance at various nodes understand capability withstand disruptions different levels. Using discrete event simulation, this study analyses copper by an agent-based simulation software anyLogistix, considering key indexes (KPIs) gauge magnitude. From results it evident that lack safety stocks multi-sourcing facilitate as major causes for disruptions. helps levels make resilient robust any future disruption. Further, proposes project management solutions recover from cascading chain. scientific contribution provide managers with techniques It stakeholders importance tools reduce findings will support contemporary managers, allies, formulate strategies recovering caused natural disasters, pandemics such COVID-19.
