This work aims at developing a method for analysing the domino effect among concepts affecting Supply Chain Resilience. The proposed method allows connecting concepts at many different levels (e.g. sources of risk, disruptions, supply chain management practices and other aspects). A case study for an electrical appliance supply chain has been used to illustrate the application of the proposed method in an operating context. The proposed method, based on Fuzzy Cognitive Maps, allows the players of the supply chain to evaluate indirect and total causal effect among different concepts affecting the supply chain resilience. The analysis conducted in this study unveiled several paths which form a sequence of concepts towards the top event (i.e. Supply Chain Resilience). The research approach proposed in this work can be applied to different industrial sectors and company managers can identify the capabilities and strategies that can make a firm more resilient and define supply chain design strategies to increase system resilience.
