  2. Introduction Diagnosis of risks and evaluation of riskmitigationstrategiesis difficult in largesupplynetworks: • Numerousnodes (suppliers, tiers) • Manyuncertainties (demand, quality, leadtime) • Highlevel of dependency (disruptions at supplier’ssupplier’ssupplier) WepresenthowsupplynetworkdisruptionscanbeevaluatedwithProbabilisticRiskAnalysis (PRA) and Bayesiannetworks : • How to recognize, group, and prioritizeriskfactors? • How to visualizerisks?

  3. Executive summary Risk importance of each supplier illustrated Material supplier network for Honda Accord center console1 1 Network adapted from Choi and Hong (2002), Kim et al. (2011)

  4. Why Probabilistic Risk Analysis (PRA) for Supply Networks? Review of optimization models for disruption management: Snyder et al. (2010) Supply chain risks can be captured with optimization models: • Stochastic optimization for minimizing expect cost under known probability distributions • Robust optimization for a guaranteed outcome without much assumptions of uncertainty • Tailored for specific decision situations: e.g, facility location or supplier selection Probability based diagnostic analysis serves different purposes: • Not focused on particular decisions; increases visibility and understanding of the whole • Allows modeling substantially large networks • Models are not ”black boxes”  Comprehensible for management

  5. PRA importance measures for prioritization: A Fussell-Vesely example 10% S1 10% S3 10% S2 10% 10% • Fussell-Vesely measures the decrease in network disruption probability, if a supplier is not disrupted S4 S5 Lower branch Upper branch 2.2%2.0% • Supplier S3 is the mostimportant, then S4 and S5, then S1 and S2  Probability of disruption at supplier i: Pr(Fi)= 10.0%  Probability for network disruption: Pr(Fs)≈ 2.2%

  6. Different importance measures are used to support different decisions • There are many importance measures for various purposes; we consider Fussell-Vesely (FV) & Risk-Achievement-Worth (RAW):   • The directeffect of supplier i for the networkdisruptionFs • ”Defence in depth” - the capability of the network to resist a disruption at supplier i Source of table: van der Borst & Schoonakker (2001)

  7. Bayesian networks can be used to model probabilistic reliability networks • Typical PRA methods use logic gates to describe a system; this can be too rigorous for supply chains • Bayesian network consists of a causality graphand conditional probability tables

  8. The Honda Accord center console network The Accord net is translated into a Bayesian net Assumptions: • A leaf supplier has 5% disruption probability • Disruption at a parent supplier leaves a 50% ”survival probability” (due to backup suppliers, inventories) • The disruption probability of suppliers with multiple parents is proportional to amount of parents disrupted Importance measures are calculated for two scenarios: • As above • As above, but with supplier J3 turning risky  Disruption probability is updated from 5% to 50%

  9. Fussell-Vesely (no disruption at supplier): First tier suppliers are critical Scenario: J3 becomes risky For example: FV(JFC)=32.86%FV(Emhart)=1.01% Size and colorindicate the importancemeasurevalue

  10. Risk Achievemet Worth (certain disruption): Parent supplier CVT is critical Scenario: J3 becomes risky For example: RAW(JFC)=3.37RAW(Emhart)=1.11 Size and colorindicate the importancemeasurevalue

  11. Key takeways from different measures 1. 2. 3. Fussell-Veselyguides the prioritization of improvementactions at individualsuppliers • Improvements at 1st tiersuppliersCVTAss and JFCincreasereliability the most • WhenJ3hasreliabilityissues, improvements atJFC and J3become a keypriority RiskAchievement Worth canbeusedwhenimprovingnetwork (design, othersuppliers) • A disruption at CVT (parent of threeCVT-sub-suppliers) harmsreliability the most Decreasingdependency on CVT is recommended

  12. Extensions of the approach Estimation of probabilities: • Expert judgment, estimation from statistical data, discrete-event simulation Dynamic modeling: • Inventory and delays work as supply chain buffers; they are dynamic in nature • Once-in-ten-years disruption that lasts 6 months vs. Once-a-year disruption that lasts 18 days  Both have (yearly) disruption probability of 5% • Dynamic Bayesian nets and simulation can capture such dynamics Multi-stage models: e.g., ”Full disruption” – ”50% capacity” – ”Full capacity” Other importance measures, such as joint-importance

  13. Conclusions Importance measures can be used for various purposes… • Fussell-Vesely when planning improvements at individual suppliers • Risk Achievement Worth for changes in network design …and the results can be illustrated in an intuitive risk map The approach is next validated in real applications
