Although companies known the potential risks their business are exposed, many of them are not prepared to respond to demand during a disruption in their supply chain, neither intend to invest in create or redesign their supply chain to be resilient against those events. The purpose of this research is by using the simulation software developed by Avraham Y. Goldratt Institute will compare the performance of a pull and push supply chain system design, also confirm the assumption that with a pull system a company can better handle a short time disruption of the supply chain.
