Abstract: The objective of this paper is to provide in-depth guidance on conducting and/or developing solid empirical research in supply chain risk management (SCRM). A meta-synthesis approach was employed to assess empirical research in SCRM retrieved from 17 leading journals over the last 14 years in terms of research evolution and research process. It was found that empirical investigations of SCRM in multi-tier supply chains for global insights are relatively scarce and many empirical studies failed to justify the trustworthiness of their research. The findings could guide researchers to develop solid empirical methodologies to address industry issues and advance SCRM theory.
