Some weeks ago I wrote about Fisher’s suggestions on how to select the right supply chain for your product. But how to continue from there? How do different products affect the further planning steps needed?

I had a productive week. Nonetheless, there is still a lot to do. The next deadline for handing in parts of my dissertation is by the end of October, so at the moment I am working on the last bits and pieces there. I still found some time to read on the internet, this is the best of over 30 articles I read.
This review is about a preprint article which already has been accepted for publication by the “European Journal of Operational Research”. But since there is only a limited space for articles in each issue of the journal, final publication of the article is delayed.
Today I review an article called “18 Ways to Guard Against Disruption”. It was published in the Supply Chain Management Review in 2005 by Elkins et al.

I am not a big fan of huge announcements, but some of you already noticed a small change on all pages of this supply chain risk portal: After my wedding in September I took the last name of my wife (Dumke). So just this week I changed all the entries here and adapt a few accounts elsewhere on the internet and now we are up and running again. So right now I use this incident to monitor how fast such changes propagate through the common search engines.
Search engines also helped me finding some of the best articles on the web this week, which I linked below.
