The global spread of the novel coronavirus, also known as the COVID-19 pandemic, has had a devastating impact on supply chains. Since the pandemic started, scholars have been researching and publishing their studies on the various supply-chain-related issues raised by COVID-19. However, while the number of articles on this subject has been steadily increasing, due to the absence of any systematic literature reviews, it remains unclear what aspects of this disruption have already been studied and what aspects still need to be investigated. The present study systematically reviews existing research on the COVID-19 pandemic in supply chain disciplines. Through a rigorous and systematic search, we identify 74 relevant articles published on or before 28 September 2020. The synthesis of the findings reveals that four broad themes recur in the published work: namely, impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, resilience strategies for managing impacts and recovery, the role of technology in implementing resilience strategies, and supply chain sustainability in the light of the pandemic. Alongside the synthesis of the findings, this study describes the methodologies, context, and theories used in each piece of research. Our analysis reveals that there is a lack of empirically designed and theoretically grounded studies in this area; hence, the generalizability of the findings, thus far, is limited. Moreover, the analysis reveals that most studies have focused on supply chains for high-demand essential goods and healthcare products, while low-demand items and SMEs have been largely ignored. We also review the literature on prior epidemic outbreaks and other disruptions in supply chain disciplines. By considering the findings of these articles alongside research on the COVID-19 pandemic, this study offers research questions and directions for further investigation. These directions can guide scholars in designing and conducting impactful research in the field.

COVID-19 大流行相关的供应链研究:系统回顾



新型冠状病毒(也称为 COVID-19 大流行)的全球传播对供应链产生了毁灭性影响。自疫情爆发以来,学者们一直在研究并发表有关 COVID-19 引发的各种供应链相关问题的研究。然而,尽管有关这一主题的文章数量一直在稳步增加,但由于缺乏任何系统的文献综述,目前尚不清楚这种破坏的哪些方面已经被研究以及哪些方面仍需要研究。本研究系统回顾了供应链学科中有关 COVID-19 大流行的现有研究。通过严格、系统的搜索,我们确定了 2020 年 9 月 28 日或之前发表的 74 篇相关文章。对调查结果的综合显示,已发表的作品中重复出现了四大主题:即 COVID-19 大流行的影响、管理的复原力策略影响和恢复、技术在实施复原力战略中的作用以及大流行背景下的供应链可持续性。除了对研究结果的综合之外,本研究还描述了每项研究中使用的方法、背景和理论。我们的分析表明,该领域缺乏经验设计和理论基础的研究;因此,到目前为止,研究结果的普遍性是有限的。此外,分析显示,大多数研究都集中在高需求必需品和医疗保健产品的供应链上,而低需求商品和中小企业在很大程度上被忽视。我们还回顾了有关先前流行病爆发和供应链学科其他中断的文献。 通过考虑这些文章的发现以及有关 COVID-19 大流行的研究,本研究提供了进一步调查的研究问题和方向。这些方向可以指导学者在该领域设计和开展有影响力的研究。
