Supply Chain Management Operations Reference (SCOR): Study Bibliometric

The reference model SCOR (Supply Chain Operations Reference Management) was built to represent, analyze, and configure the Supply Chain (SC), having as basic pillars: plan, supply, produce, deliver and return, in order to standardize processes along the supply chain. In this context, this article aims to review scientific literature related to the topic SCOR, published in the Emerald database. Using the word as a term SCOR, 150 articles were found, but only 61 articles obeyed the selection criteria, being included in the analysis. The items investigated, by year of publication, were: journal, study type, methodology, type of supply chain investigated and the main topics discussed. As the survey results, the year 2009 had the greatest number of publications, 16% in total; the research method most often used was the case study, with 57%; the performance management was the most investigated chain model, representing 28%; and the main theme stood between "performance", "knowledge management" and "framework and model”. It follows, therefore, that studies related to SCOR are addressing relevant and actual topics; however they still need further research to unify the concepts focused on these subjects.
