Introduction

In this introductory chapter an overview of supply chain risk modeling and management is provided with a particular emphasis on supply chain resilience, viability, and cybersecurity. The innovative multi-portfolio approach and scenario-based stochastic MIP formulations are proposed as efficient optimization tools for integrated and coordinated decision-making. The multi-portfolio approach is capable of spatially and temporally integrating and coordinating the proactive and reactive decisions in the multi-regional supply chains under propagated regional disruptions. Illustrative real-world examples of contemporary global supply chains and supply chain preparedness and recovery strategies are described.
