Supply-chain preparedness means to design inter-organisational structures,to organise supply-chain resources, and to plan and train to ensure efficientresponse if this is called for. Acknowledging that supply chains are made up oftwo or more organisations, and that interaction describes relations between two ormore actors, the purpose of this research is to explore whether the introduction ofthe concept of interaction (samhandling) to supply-chain thinking adds to our understandingof efficiency and the effectiveness of logistics preparedness.We position our work along three dimensions: a profit - non-profit classification,a descriptive - normative dichotomy, and a micro - macro continuum. Informationwas retrieved both through semi-structured interviews and by studying secondarysources. Interaction and preparedness is assessed through an empirical case: theoperation Atalanta. By applying interactional indicators, enablers and barriers torelationship success can be studied at both micro, meso, and macro levels. Withoutunderstanding the mechanisms leading to interactional competence, success (orthe lack thereof) in supply-chain preparedness is difficult to address properly. Thus,managers need to assess the interactional constructs at all levels when planning andtraining for preparedness
