Abstract
Risk management plays a key role in effectively operating construction supply chains with the presence of diverse uncertainties. In construction, some review-based papers have been done to cover various issues in supply chain risk management (SCRM) such as risks associated with the adoption of supply chain management. However, limited review papers have been conducted to comprehensively classify supply chain risk (SCR) types and/or analyze SCRM processes (i.e. risk identification, risk assessment, risk mitigation, and risk monitoring). Therefore, this study aims to overcome such shortcomings of previous literature reviews by applying a review process with six specific stages. Accordingly, 30 relevant papers published during over the last two decades are first extracted from Scopus and Web of Science databases. Then, descriptive and content analyses are used to review these papers. It is found that a considerable amount of focus has been devoted to identifying and assessing risks while mitigating and monitoring risks have not yet received much attention from researchers. Finally, research gaps and opportunities are presented to guide further studies. This paper contributes to the extant literature by conducting a comprehensive view of various past studies across SCRM processes in construction.

N.B. Descriptive scope is a count of how many of the five facets of empirical research are indicated by the words used in title, abstract and keywords. It is not intended as a judgement on the research; merely a count of the kind of word we would expect to indicate Phenomenon, Concepts, Theoretical framing, Empirical techniques, Analytical techniques. If all five are present, then a code of “5 PCTEA” will indicate this. If you feel the coding for this record is questionable, we welcome discussion around the terms we matched or the way we categorized them. The facet you would expect may not be coded, or a facet may be coded inappropriately. This can also bear on a larger question, of which facets should be treated as defining in construction management research. Please get in touch, and we will look at it. More details here
