A Different Approach to Global Supplier Risk: A Finance Based Model

Abstract

Increased competition with globalization has led multinational companies and suppliers to find cost-effective solutions to ensure competitive advantage. This tendency causes enterprises to shift their production to partially lower-cost markets. However, this approach ignores unpredictable and hidden costs and risks, especially in supply. Therefore, “The Strategy of Best Cost Country Sourcing“ has begun to gain importance. The aim of this study is to propose a model for the determination of the risks in the selection of suppliers under the “Best Cost Country Sourcing Strategy”. With the model, firm specific financal risks, national specific financial risks and global risks affecting Small and Medium Size Enterprices (SMEs) in 11 European Union countries were analyzed with the fuzzy logic method between 2006-2016. Küreselleşmeyle birlikte artan rekabet, çok uluslu şirketleri ve tedarikçilerini rekabet avantajı sağlayabilmeleri amacıyla, özellikle maliyet etkin çözümler bulmaya yönlendirmiştir. Bu yönelim, işletmelerin üretimlerini kısmi olarak daha düşük maliyetli pazarlara kaydırmalarına neden olmuştur. Ancak bu yaklaşım, özellikle tedarikte öngörülemeyen ve gömülü maliyetleri ve riskleri göz ardı etmektedir Bu nedenle “En İyi Ülkeden Tedarik Stratejisi” gittikçe önem kazanmaya başlamıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, “En İyi Ülkeden Tedarik Stratejisi” kapsamında tedarikçilerin seçiminde risklerinin belirlenmesine yönelik bir model önerisi sunmaktır. Oluşturulan model ile 11 Avrupa Birliği ülkesinde yerleşik KOBİ’leri etkileyen ülkeye ve firmalara özgü mali riskler ve küresel riskler 2006-2016 yılları arasında bulanık mantık yöntemi ile analize tabi tutulmuştur.
