The primary purpose of this research was to understand the importance of supply chain strategies in the field of supply chain risk management, emphasizing the effectiveness and efficiency of agile and lean strategies to create resilience and robustness in the supply chain. Data was collected from 392 supply chain experts working in Iran's automotive industry to test hypotheses through structural equation modeling. The findings of this study show that Market Orientation (MO) (as an external force) has more signicant impact on the development of Agile Strategy (AS) than Lean Strategy (LS). In contrast, the Quality Management (QM) system (as an internal force) is highly correlated with the development of lean supply chain strategies. Moreover, agile and lean strategies also have a signicant impact on a resilient and Robust Supply Chain (RB). The proposed model helps organizations understand and create an ideal supply chain by implementing the right combination of both agile and lean supply chain strategies, which in turn helps to create a resilient and RB. Therefore, the findings of this study help policymakers to improve supply chain strategies by incorporating new management practices. This is original research that has various valuable insights for academic researchers and also supply chain strategy professionals as it reveals empirical evidence of the past vital concepts.

In August 2016, IATF issued the new requirement of quality management system IATF 16949. With these new requirements, the automotive industry that is willing to migrate to the new version will face some challenges. The main challenge comes from the need to re-map the business processes that are needed for the internal audit. The other challenges are the readiness of the quality of the internal auditors, measure gaps, and predict the success of the certification audits. This research is based on a case study at one of the automotive manufacturing company. A framework for measuring the gap analysis of the compliance based on the automotive standards requirements (IATF 16949: 2016) through an internal quality audit score has presented in this research. The analysis has done by using a turtle diagram for risk analysis and follows by a survey on an internal quality auditor’s perception. Based on the analysis, it can be determined which processes need to be audited. The research has found that there are 32 processes in the company which is needed to be an audit. The survey has indicated that internal quality auditor is ready with the new requirement of the quality management system. The internal audit’s result with a weighted score shows the level that can be achieved by the company to fulfill the standard IATF 16949:2016. The gap that has shown in the spider chart depicts that an automotive manufacturing company will be able to passe the certification audit.
