Flexibility, quick responses to changes, and capacity to respond to external factors are strategies that companies must develop to ensure their continuity and face adverse situations. The flexibility that can be acquired by optimizing plant layout and resilience ensures continuity of production by reducing adverse external shocks. This article synthesizes critical elements used in models to solve facility layout problems, followed by analyzing the resilience variables and factors most frequently applied in the industry. A systematic literature review to achieve this objective was developed, including 170 articles published in 2010 and 2021. Its study was performed through the Atlas.ti software, an analysis of the 4W's (i.e., When, Who, What, and Where) was applied, and finally, answers to three research questions posed were given. Growth in the scientific interest of facility layout problems can be observed in the last five years, especially for dynamic problems and unequal areas, development of multi-objective models, and approach to metaheuristic solutions. Eventually, research gaps were also identified, highlighting the lack of inclusion of resilience factors in plant distribution models.

The capacity to respond and adapt to risks and problems in an organization is critical for business success. Any type of weakness causes inefficient use of resources. On the contrary, flexible facilities can ensure the continuity of operations in the face of disruptive events, which significantly harm the company. However, flexibility is not achieved only with the optimization of facilities, as resilient approaches can enhance it. This research synthesizes the variables and indicators with greater use in three different areas, business resilience, textile industry, and the facility layout problem (FLP). A systematic literature review was conducted, considering 99 studies published in 2010–2021. The documents were analyzed using the Atlas.ti software, a 4W (When, Who, What, and Where) analysis, and three research questions posed through the PICO strategy. The findings indicate that the scientific interest regarding resilience has been increasing in the last six years, specifically in evaluation methods and approaches to identify resilience factors and indicators in the industry through fuzzy mathematical models. It is also highlighted the scarcity of resilient FLP studies the importance of indicators for an accurate model. Finally, a set of possible indicators for the facility layout design with a resilient approach based on FLP factors is proposed
