本指南中定义的供应链风险管理（SCRM）可以主动应用于保护所有采购的产品和服务；飞行和非飞行贯穿供应链的各个层面。 该指南将质量作为一个关键的风险评估因素，考虑到与全球质量管理直接相关的业务各个方面的因素。此概念/模型如中所示 图1 . 虽然传统的“小q”质量是需要评估的关键要素，但从公司业务的角度来看，其他要素在最大限度地降低风险方面发挥着重要作用。本指南定义了此类需要考虑的风险因素。 SCRM作为一种业务保护工具，当用于识别和降低与新供应商和现有供应商开展新业务时的风险时，将是最有效的。然而，下文描述的工具和技术也可以应用于评估现有供应链网络并确定所需的控制水平。 SCRM可以通过将与采购产品或服务以及供应商本身相关的已识别风险因素与供应商总体质量风险管理目标相结合来应用（参见 6 ). 建议将该指南级联到供应链中的子级供应商。

Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM), defined in this guideline, can be applied proactively for the protection of all procured products and services; both flying and non-flying through all levels of the supply chain. The guideline focuses on Quality as a key risk assessment factor taking into account elements from all aspects of the business having a direct link to global quality management. This concept/model is shown in Figure 1 . While traditional “small q” Quality is a key element to be assessed, from a company business point of view, other elements play an important part in minimizing risk. This guideline defines such risk factors for consideration. SCRM as a business protection tool will be most effective when used to identify, and reduce risks when generating new business with new and existing suppliers. However, the tools and techniques described hereafter can also be applied to evaluate the existing supply chain network and determine the level of control required. The SCRM can be applied by merging identified risk factors associated with procured products or services and the supplier itself with the target for overall supplier quality risk management (see Section 6 ). This guideline is recommended to be cascaded to sub-tier suppliers in the supply chain.
