Abstract
The automobile industry is undergoing a significant shift toward sustainability, driven by environmental concerns, evolving customer preferences, and strict regulations. Automakers are focused on reducing their carbon footprint throughout their supply chains. Thus, research on supply chain resilience (SCRES) has gained attention in today's complex business environment, highlighting its importance for competitiveness and alignment with global economies. This manuscript presents a systematic literature review (SLR) of journal articles published from 2010 to June 2024, focused on resilience in automobile supply chains. The study identifies three risk stages, 12 core SCRES capabilities, and six capabilities of NextGen digital supply chain technologies (NextGen-DSCTs). Involving 25 industry practitioners, we propose a clear and comprehensive SCRES framework that offers guidelines for effectively managing supply chain risks and uncertainties, ensuring a sustainable future for the automotive sector.
