The Effect of Resource Restructuring on Supply Chain Resilience in the Context of Digital Transformation

In the BANI context, organizations can utilize digital technologies to implement flexible resource allocation strategies to help them address unpredictable situations, which is crucial for enhancing supply chain resilience. However, the existing research lacks an in-depth exploration of the mechanisms underlying supply chain resilience development in the practice of enterprise resource restructuring. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate how companies can enhance supply chain resilience through resource restructuring in the context of digital transformation. Taking Compaks as its research object, this study adopted the exploratory single-case study method. Through open, axial, and selective coding based on the proceduralized grounded theory and following the research logic of “resource orchestration motivation—digital transformation—resource orchestration under digital transformation”, this study comprehensively investigates the improvement of supply chain resilience via enterprise resource restructuring in the context of digital transformation. The results show that (1) resource orchestration motivation includes two dimensions of risk perception, supply-side and demand-side (2) in the context of digital transformation, restructuring supply chain resources (redundant, technological, and internal and external resources) through capability transformation (manufacturing, digital platform, and innovation capability) positively impacts supply chain resilience (both active and passive). This research contributes to the theory of supply chain resilience and provides reference and guidance for traditional enterprise resource orchestration and optimizing supply chain resilience.
