Abstract

Background and Objectives: Ripple effect has many destructive effects on supply chains because if it occurs, it can involve a large number of layers of the supply chain. After the ripple effect occurs, issues in the supply chain can act as its intensifiers. This issue has not been investigated in previous studies, so this study has identified and modeled them in the Iranian machine-made carpet supply chain. The statistical population of this study is machine-made carpet supply chain experts. The data collection tool in the first stage is a semi-structured interview and in the second stage is a researcher-made questionnaire. The data analysis method in the first stage is content analysis and in the second stage is interpretive structural modeling. The results indicate 40 intensifiers that were grouped into 12 categories, which are: "weakness in planning and foresight", "structural intensifiers", "upstream intensifiers", "weakness in supply", "purity", "operational intensifiers", "technological intensifiers", "weakness in market orientation", "structural weakness of the chain", "chain culture", "human resource intensifiers" and "knowledge intensifier". After identifying these factors, an interpretative structural model was presented. The structural model indicates the great importance of "upstream intensifiers", "structural intensifiers" and "weakness in planning and foresight". Developing different scenarios, creating rapid response teams, creating market monitoring systems and simplifying processes and regulations are among the solutions to deal with intensifiers.
