Abstract: 
Predictive analytics frameworks have become central to strengthening supply chain resilience by enabling systematic assessment of operational risks, variability, and system-wide efficiency impacts. At a broad level, increasing supply chain complexity, globalization, and exposure to disruptions have intensified the need for forward-looking analytical approaches that move beyond descriptive performance monitoring. Predictive analytics integrates historical data, real-time operational signals, and external risk indicators to anticipate potential failures and support proactive decision-making. Narrowing this focus, assessing operational risks and variability requires analytical models capable of capturing uncertainty across production processes, inventory systems, transportation networks, and demand patterns. Statistical forecasting, probabilistic modeling, and machine learning techniques provide complementary tools for identifying risk drivers, quantifying variability, and estimating the likelihood and severity of disruptions. These methods enable organizations to evaluate trade-offs between efficiency, robustness, and flexibility under uncertain operating conditions. This abstract emphasizes the role of predictive analytics frameworks in linking localized operational risks to system-wide efficiency outcomes. By integrating risk assessment with optimization and scenario analysis, organizations can evaluate cascading effects across interconnected supply chain components and design adaptive resilience strategies. Such frameworks support improved resource allocation, enhanced service continuity, and sustained efficiency performance, positioning predictive analytics as a foundational capability for resilient and data-driven supply chain management.
