From a systematic literature review to integrated definition for sustainable supply chain innovation (SSCI) (2017, neutral): “…strategy and system complexity are considered as key antecedents to innovations in supply chain (Autry and Griffis, 2008; Blome et al., 2013; Cheng et al., 2014; Choi and Krause, 2006; Craighead et al., 2009; Gualandris and Kalchschmidt, 2014; Panayides and Lun, 2009; Wagner and Bode, 2014).”
The governance of supply networks: a systematic literature review (2012, background): “However, even when the focal company seeks to exert more control, this can be difficult if the number of suppliers is too large, or if they actively exchange information (Choi and Krause, 2006).”
Complexity and Adaptivity in Supply Networks: Building Supply Network Theory Using a Complex Adaptive Systems Perspective (2007, background): “From a supply chain management perspective, the results and findings on adaptability and use of NK models have been demonstrated for supply base management (Choi & Krause, 2006).”
The Severity of Supply Chain Disruptions: Design Characteristics and Mitigation Capabilities (2007, background): “We define the complexity of a supply chain, consistent with other scholars (e.g., Choi & Krause, 2006), to be the sum of two components—the total number of nodes (Nnodes) and the total number of forward (Nforward), backward (Nbackward), and within-tier materials flows (Nwithin-tier) within a given…”
A model of supply chain and supply chain decision‐making complexity (2011, background): “Prior research identifies supply chain complexity as a key issue confronting supply chain managers (Mentzer et al., 2001; Choi and Krause, 2006).”
An empirical investigation into supply chain vulnerability (2006, background): “affects supply chain vulnerability (Cavinato, 2004; Choi and Krause, 2006; Svensson, 2004a).”
Financial benefits and risks of dependency in triadic supply chain relationships (2015, background): “Over decades, however, firms have moved toward highly interdependent relationships with fewer exchange partners in both upstream and downstream markets through such practices as supply base reduction and strategic partnerships (Choi and Krause, 2006; The Economist, 2006; Patatoukas, 2012).”
