Abstract

In this paper, we present and discuss different frameworks for initiating a supply network. Thus, we try to understand how a firm designs a process of establishing a supply network and monitoring the network in the start-up phase, i.e. we study a firm’s effort at initiating and operating a supply network. Furthermore, we discuss different opportunities and problems that a firm may encounter in the process of designing a supply network. The paper is based on a case study of a main contractor (within the building industry) which during a period of time has changed its sourcing strategy and tried to establish and stabilise a supply network.
