Popis: This research was funded by Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (Project PTDC/EMEGIN/68400/2006 and Project MIT-Pt/EDAM-IASC/0033/2008). Helena Carvalho was supported by a PhD fellowship from Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (SFRH/BD/43984/2008). This paper proposes a model for management of supply chain resilience. To this end thestructured content analysis of media news is used to analyze a sample constituted by sixty two documents containing evidences of seventy seven companies that were affected by the Japan 2011 earthquake. The sample provides evidences that companies failed to sustain their operations mainly because capacity shortages and material shortages.
