  • First Online:
Business Performance Measurement and Management

Abstract

Companies linked in a modern supply network are affected by tight interdependences which cause remarkable risk levels. This paper suggests a method to select risk factors and sources providing the management with a functional tool to hold in check related risks. Particularly, aeronautical firms are considered in the practical application of the method: some strategic goals of the network are selected and a dashboard of indexes is adopted to establish specific control points. A variation in one, or more, indicator/s will allow to promptly investigate on the interested part of the network which could negatively affect its overall performance.
