This study aims to identify best practices in strategic procurement to alleviate the impact of supply chain disruptions around the world. The UK and similar countries rely significantly on global procurement, and the disruptions caused by events like the COVID-19 outbreak and Brexit have severe impacts. The study is conducted in two phases, including a literature review and actual research with an apt methodology. The primary findings of this research are the identification of best practices and looking at the procurement function as a strategic function integrated with supply chain management to make supply chain resilient organizations. This study contributes to the expanding literature concentrating on evaluating the best practices for a sourcing organization to become supply chain resilient during significant supply chain disruptions.

Birleşik Krallık'ta tedarik zinciri kesintilerine tanıklık eden stratejik satın almadaki en iyi uygulamalara ilişkin bir araştırma

Öz

Bu çalışma, dünya çapında tedarik zinciri kesintilerinin etkisini azaltmak üzere kullanılan stratejik satın alma alanındaki en iyi uygulamaları belirlemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Birleşik Krallık ve benzeri ülkeler, önemli ölçüde küresel tedarikten faydalanmaktadır ve COVID-19 salgını ile birlikte Brexit gibi olaylar nedeniyle tedarik zinciri süreçlerinde zorlu kesintilerle başa çıkmaya çalışmışlardır. Bu çalışma, literatür taraması ve uygun bir metodoloji ile gerçek araştırmayı içeren iki aşamada gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu araştırmanın temel bulguları, en iyi uygulamaların belirlenmesi ve tedarik işlevinin tedarik zinciri yönetimi ile entegre bir stratejik fonksiyon olarak ele alınarak, tedarik zinciri dayanıklı organizasyonlar oluşturmanın önemine vurgulamaktadır. Bu çalışma, tedarik zinciri kesintileri sırasında organizasyonların tedarik zinciri süreçlerinde dayanıklı hale gelmesi için en iyi uygulamaların değerlendirilmesine odaklanan genişleyen literatüre katkıda bulunmaktadır.
