Purpose: The purpose of the study was to identify key reasons for intensifying risk management activities in supply chains. To achieve the objective, the following research hypotheses were adopted: H1 - the extent of business activity is not correlated with problems related to demand constraints and timeliness of payments, H2 - disruptions in supply chain continuity during a COVID-19 pandemic are independent of the type of chain. Design/methodology/approach: These paper highlights the importance of risk management in the supply chain management in addressing the pandemic induced disruptions and supply chain risk management activities. Achieving the stated goal requires answering two questions: (1) What problems are companies facing due to the coronavirus pandemic, and (2) What actions are companies taking to ensure supply chain continuity, especially in Poland conditions. 137 enterprises participated in the research, including 118 with foreign capital. The survey was conducted online. The research sample included entities from the manufacturing, trading, and service sectors located throughout Poland. Companies were selected using a snowball method, starting with supply chain managers from friendly entities and asking them to identify other entities that could take part in the study. Findings: The research showed that the continuity of supply chains in Poland was not maintained, and companies were able to keep inventories only at a minimum level. The research also analysed the impact of remote work on the effects of the functioning of enterprises and assessed the effects of support under anti-crisis shields. Originality/value: The research has been carried out in order to identify the factors that have the greatest influence on the efficiency of the supply chains of Polish enterprises. The research showed that the continuity of supply chains in Poland was not maintained, and companies were able to keep inventories only at a minimum level.

Innovation is one of the main factors in achieving competitive advantage. Therefore, it is essential to introduce them to enterprises that have to compete in national, European and global markets. Knowledge, technology and innovation have become fundamental in the process of creating the organisation's value or achieving other goals. These make it possible to adapt to the environment, respond to its needs, and sometimes create changes, thanks to which it is possible to create a competitive advantage. So far, research has focused mainly on national, regional, or supranational analyses of SME innovation activity, with somewhat less focus on a cross-border perspective. Therefore, the authors set the aim of the study to identify basic conditions and analyze factors influencing SMEs' innovative activity in cross-border regions. Considering the differences in the potential of the Polish and German economies, it was decided to observe and analyse this issue in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship and Brandenburg.

Innowacje stanowią jeden z głównych czynników osiągania przewagi konkurencyjnej. Dlatego niezbędne jest wprowadzanie ich w przedsiębiorstwach, które muszą konkurować na rynkach krajowych, europejskich i światowych. Fundamentalne znaczenie w procesie kreowania wartości organizacji czy osiągania innych celów, nabrały także zasoby wiedzy, technologie i innowacje. To one pozwalają dostosowywać się do otoczenia, reagować na jego potrzeby, niekiedy kreować zmiany dzięki czemu możliwe jest tworzenie przewagi konkurencyjnej. Nie maleje zainteresowanie badawcze problematyką innowacji. Ma to swoje uzasadnienie w głębokim niemal zasadniczym znaczeniu tych kategorii w rozwoju i osiągnięciu przewagi strategicznej przedsiębiorstwa, a znajduje swoje odzwierciedlenie w opracowaniach naukowych powstających w wyniku badań prowadzonych w wielu krajach wysoko rozwiniętych. Jak dotąd prace badawcze główną uwagę kierują w stronę krajowych, regionalnych czy ponadnarodowych analiz aktywności innowacyjnej MSP, nieco mniej skupiając się na ujęciu transgranicznym. Z tego względu autorzy za cel badania postawili identyfikację podstawowych uwarunkowań i analizę czynników wpływających na działalność innowacyjną przedsiębiorstw sektora MSP w regionie transgranicznym. Uwzględniając różnice w potencjałach gospodarki Polski i Niemiec, zdecydowano się na obserwację i analizę wspomnianej problematyki w województwie zachodniopomorskim oraz Brandenburgii. W szczególności badanie dotyczy rozwoju działalności innowacyjnej w tych regionach oraz identyfikuje jej główne determinanty. Ponadto zidentyfikowano główne bariery, a także czynniki zwiększające aktywność innowacyjną MSP w regionach transgranicznych. W artykule zaprezentowano wyniki badań nad wskazaną problematyką, które przeprowadzono z wykorzystaniem zróżnicowanej metodyki, obejmującej poza krytyczną analizą literatury, analizę porównawczą oraz wywiady pogłębione z ekspertami w zakresie działalności innowacyjnej.

Artykuł stanowi drugą część opracowania, którego celem jest przedstawienie wpływu pandemii COVID-19 na logistykę na przykładzie wybranych polskich przedsiębiorstw produkcyjnych, handlowych i usługowych. Dokonano w nim pogłębionej analizy wyników własnych badań empirycznych. Prezentowane w opracowaniu wyniki są efektem bardziej obszernych badań, dotyczących zarządzania procesami logistycznymi w polskich przedsiębiorstwach produkcyjnych, handlowych i usługowych w latach 2019–2021 w kontekście kształtowania wyników przedsiębiorstwa. Badania przeprowadzono w 2022 r. wśród 335 losowo wybranych małych, średnich i dużych polskich przedsiębiorstw produkcyjnych, handlowych i usługowych. Na podstawie badań stwierdzono, że pandemia COVID-19 miała ogromny wpływ na logistykę we wszystkich badanych przedsiębiorstwach w latach 2020–2021. Zmiany uwarunkowań logistyki spowodowane pandemią nałożyły się na determinanty logistyki współczesnych przedsiębiorstw przed pandemią. Strategiczne i operacyjne zarządzanie procesami logistycznymi coraz bardziej determinowało wyniki ekonomiczne i rynkowe najlepszych badanych przedsiębiorstw w czasie pandemii COVID-19. Przedsiębiorstwa osiągające najlepsze wyniki w czasie pandemii realizowały strategię zarządzania łańcuchem dostaw, będącą w ciągłym stadium tworzenia, kształtowania się, charakteryzującą się błyskawiczną reakcją na zmieniające się wymagania klientów, warunki otoczenia oraz działania konkurentów, przy respektowaniu zasad zrównoważonego rozwoju. Najbardziej skuteczni menedżerowie logistyki w czasie pandemii podejmowali szybkie działania umożliwiające ograniczenie prawdopodobieństwa zakłóceń, zmniejszenie dotkliwości skutków zaistniałych zdarzeń oraz kreowanie i utrzymanie przewag konkurencyjnych przedsiębiorstw.

The article constitutes the second part of the study, the aim of which is to present the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic on logistics on the example of selected Polish manufacturing, trade and service enterprises. It includes an in-depth analysis of the results of the author's own empirical research. The results of own empirical research presented in the study constitute the effects of more extensive research on an indepth analysis of the logistics process management in Polish manufacturing, trade and service enterprises in 2019–2021 in the context of shaping enterprise results. The research was conducted in 2022 among 335 randomly selected small, medium and large Polish manufacturing, trade and service enterprises. As a result of the research, it was found that the COVID-19 pandemic had a huge influence on logistics in all surveyed enterprises in 2020–2021. Changes in logistics conditions caused by the pandemic overlapped with the logistics determinants of contemporary enterprises before the pandemic. Strategic and operational management of logistics processes increasingly determined the economic and market results of the best surveyed enterprises during the COVID-19 pandemic. Enterprises achieving the best results during the pandemic implemented the supply chain management strategy that was in a constant state of creation and development, characterized by an immediate response to changing customer requirements, environmental conditions and competitors' activities, respecting, at the same time, the principles of sustainable development. During the pandemic, the most effective logistics managers took quick actions so as to reduce the likelihood of disruption, decrease the severity of the effects of events, and create and maintain competitive advantages of their enterprises.
