A Conceptual Framework for Analysing Supply Chain Performance of Oil Palm Refinery in Malaysia

Abstract

The purpose of this research is the development of a supply chain framework in order to provide the process reference model based on the relationship between entities. This research chooses multiple cases of oil palm refinery in Malaysian because there is a barrier in implementing supply chain strategy in the form of inadequate measurement performance system. The methodology developed in this research comprised three phases involving business process reengineering, supply chain relationship model and performance indicator. There are 35 refineries in the peninsular Malaysia. However, measurement of supply chain performance will be selected in 6 oil palm refineries. The findings show that the conceptual framework can provide an instrument to analyze supply chain performance and evaluate the existing supply chain strategy.

“…Supply chain management means controlling supply chain activities, including the relationships of related organizations from upstream to the downstream, which looks like a chain to achieve efficiency throughout the production process to the consumer. The supply chain operation reference model (SCOR Model) is generated by the supply chain council to refer to a model of operational processes in the supply chain by combining the business processes, metrics, practices, people, and special applications [6,7]. Furthermore, work processes are set to the same standard, divided into 6 processes: (1) Plan is the process of balancing requirements and resources throughout the supply chain.…”

“…It is also used to develop a model for supply chain management, such as the cold chain model of deep-frozen pizza delivery [5], the critical elements of import and export procedures with customs supply chain [13], green supply chain to manage domestic industry waste resource [14] and the performance measurement model for retail service by using the halal SCOR model [15]. Moreover, it has been used to develop the interoperability of strategic alignment between business, IT strategies, and performance measures in developing a sustainable procurement monitoring system [16] and improvement of palm oil supply chain best practice through analysis software [7].…”
