Abstract

This article analyses the disruption risk of the supply chain. By introducing the supply chain reliability theory, it establishes a supply chain model with reliability constraints based on the reliability theory. The article simplified the model and is proposed to use Microsoft Excel Solver to solve the 0–1 integer programming problem. This method is simple and convenient, laying the foundation for the application of this theory in practice.
