Our hypotheses that SCRM is important for both agility and robustness of a supply
chain are supported. This coincides with the descriptions of managers interviewed as
part of our case studies. Thus, the implementation of SCRM, which entails the
identification, assessment, and controlling of risks, allows companies to better cope
with changes both proactively and reactively. Besides other possible facilitators of
agility and robustness, such as cooperation, insurance, and postponement, it turns out
that SCRM is a strong driver of realizing these two strategies. This is an important
argument for managers who consider the introduction of SCRM. Most importantly,
companies, who are searching for a means to improve agility and robustness of their
supply chains, find that the introduction of SCRM can be a powerful supplement to
more traditional means such as excess capacities and safety stocks
