Abstract

Explaining the competitive strategies of supply chain management is vital. Therefore, examining supply chain risks to choose the best criteria is a new strategy to manage and control risks and reduce the vulnerability of the supply chain process in order to improve the process and productivity. The purpose of the current research is to identify and rank the risks of the  three-level supply chain (supplier, producer and distributor) with a focus on level (2) of production and operations in order to explain the new strategy in the operating company of oil and gas production. This article has been done by reviewing the studies conducted in the field of identifying and ranking the risks of lean, agile, resilient and green supply chain management, by presenting a hybrid analytical model based on fuzzy Delphi and the network analysis process in the Super-Decision software environment. The risks identified using the literature review, 32 effective components with the contexts and the real space of the supply chain and with a survey of the expert team of 17 people, have been carried out in three stages according to the fuzzy Delphi method. Finally, after refining and evaluating the extracted factors, it led to the identification of 6 criteria (environment, supply, information system, process, control and demand) consisting of 26 risks, categories and ratings. According to the findings of the research, the risks of the process criterion with the highest weight were chosen as the superior criteria and the criteria of supply, control, environment, demand and information system were placed in the next priorities. Explaining the new strategy, agile, lean, resilient and green competitive strategies were prioritized in order.
