Abstract: Although various research studies have explored the importance of supply chain resilience, many areas still need improvement to adapt to global situations and new technology. Therefore, supply chain management must reconsider, explore unique aspects, and adjust from existing perspectives to survive the various novel threats. This study thoroughly analysed 145 articles published between 2000 and 2021 on supply chain resilience and its effectiveness in mitigating risk impacts. We scrutinised keyword definitions and summarised the strategies and notable trends by differentiating them into qualitative and quantitative approaches. Moreover, we provide a resilience mapping framework that includes a disruption profile, strategies, and pre- and post-disruption drivers. Finally, we propose recommendations to aid decision-makers and practitioners in understanding and quantifying the resilience in the supply chain. These recommendations can be helpful for future research directions.

Keywords: supply chain resilience; supply chain disruptions; supply chain management; literature review; qualitative and quantitative approach.
