CEDILLO-CAMPOS, M.G. et al. Supply Chain Disruptions Propagation Caused by Criminal Acts. J. appl. res. technol [online]. 2014, vol.12, n.4, pp.684-694. ISSN 2448-6736.

To understand disruptions and their propagation along the supply chains is becoming critical for designing competitive global supply chains operating in emerging economies. It leads to economic damages to every organization involved in a supply chain, but it also decreases national logistics competitiveness. This research provides numerical elements in terms of significance of the security issue in Latin America, and at the same time, proposes a system dynamics assessment model based on real-life information, able to establish analysis scenarios in order to measure the impacts derived of supply chain disruptions propagation caused by criminal acts. Finally, useful conclusions for designing more resilient supply chains and future research are exposed.

Palabras llave : supply chain; disruption propagation; system dynamics; risk management; emerging markets.
