  • Conference paper
  • First Online:
Proceedings of the Sixth International Conference on Management Science and Engineering Management

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering ((LNEE,volume 185))

Abstract

This chapter focuses on the analysis of supply-risk-factors identification and corresponding structural equation modeling in internal supply chain, and finish the model specification, model estimation and model evaluation employed multivariable regression analysis and path analysis as well as confirmatory factor analysis. The analysis shows that the main factors of the supply chain risk are technical quality, merchandise inventory, business information, trade factors, and price–cost factors.
