6 steps to project implementation
The fifth work package builds on the previous work packages WP1-WP3 (holistic and operational reference model for the evolution of the supply chain (specified for viability)) and WP4 (data set and strategy for SCV established). Based on the linked, quantifiable and validated metrics from WP3 and the data, insights and derived strategies from WP4, a measurement and management system will be developed to practically achieve SCV as the next development stage in the form of a dashboard.
Reference model
Refinement and development of the supply chain evolution reference model specified for die
evolutionary level of viability.

Q3 2023
The data-based SCV Stakeholder Profiler creates profiles of five thematically relevant stakeholders along the supply chain that relate to sustainability and/or resilience. WP2 uses two profiling methods. (1) The semi-automated profiling is based on available ERP data and takes into account systematically collected data from other internal information systems as well as external public and/or proprietary databases. (2) Assisted manual profiling analyzes unstructured quantitative and qualitative data and unlocks implied knowledge.

Metrics development
The fifth work package builds on the previous work packages WP1-WP3 (holistic and operational reference model for the evolution of the supply chain (specified for viability)) and WP4 (data set and strategy for SCV established). Based on the linked, quantifiable and validated metrics from WP3 and the data, insights and derived strategies from WP4, a measurement and management system will be developed to practically achieve SCV as the next development stage in the form of a dashboard.
WP4 first applies the SCV-specified reference model and quantifies it based on the developed metrics for several companies from different industries. Based on the identified metrics in WP3 and the subsequently empirically collected data in WP4, an assessment module is created that enables organizations to assess their current development status, i.e. their combined and integrated efficiency, resilience and environmental sustainability along the supply chain.

Q1 2025
The workshop guidelines and the gamification approach enable access to the topic and the multiplication of solution approaches in the context of further education programs and consulting projects (comparable to business games such as Arc Institute). Output includes slides, case studies, workshop guides, and board/role-playing games.
Workshop guide / gamification
Workshop guides and gamification approach to facilitate access to the topic and to multiply solution approaches.

Unsere Projektschritte
1. Konzeptionelles Verständnis
Entwicklung eines Referenzrahmens sowie konzeptionelle Weiterentwicklung des Supply-Chain-Viability-Ansatzes.
4. Quantifizierung und Strategien
Ableitung von Strategien, die zum einen den Umgang mit Trade-offs betreffen und zum anderen der Erreichung von Supply Chain Viability dienen.
2. Stakeholder- und Trade-off-Analyse
Identifikation der relevanten Stakeholder und ihrer Anforderungen an die Supply-Chain-Viabilität sowie Auswertung der daraus resultierenden Trade-offs für das Unternehmen.
5. Dashboard
Auf der Grundlage der erarbeiteten KPIs wird ein Dashboard entwickelt, um den Status quo zu messen und eine Vision zur Entwicklung der Supply-Chain-Viability zu formulieren.
3. Entwicklung von Metriken
Identifikation relevanter KPIs, um die Supply-Chain-Viability messbar zu machen. Entwicklung einer Shortlist der relevantesten KPIs.
6. Workshop Guidelines und Gamification
Entwicklung eines Leitfadens zur Gestaltung von Workshops, eines Kartensets zur Auflockerung und spielerischen Auseinandersetzung mit Supply-Chain-Viability sowie, falls möglich, eines kleinen Spiels.
