2020 pandemic situation has pushed many organizations to think and act in order to survive. Resilient and sustainable supplier selection (RSSS) is important for companies facing this situation but there were few studies about this topic. This study tried to give basis for RSSS research by conducting descriptive study about criteria and methods that have been used by many researchers from 2014-2020. The results of this study can be useful for both researchers and practitioners by giving them basis for further development of their RSSS. This study used four step methods of systematic process in literature study, they are identification, screening, determining the eligibility of data, and summation process. RSSS criteria were grouped into general criteria, sustainable criteria and resilient criteria. The criteria were classified into the cost/price, quality, delivery, responsiveness and flexibility, environment, technology, total cost of ownership (TCO) and business metrics (for general criteria), economic, social and environmental (for sustainability criteria), redundancy, flexibility, information sharing, trust, visibility, velocity, leadership, innovation (for resilient criteria). The results showed the lack of development in TCO criteria and the growing interest of developing leadership, information sharing and innovation criteria in the 2020 articles. The methods used mostly were Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) method with integration of order allocation using mathematical modelling.
