Mohammad Anwar Rahman

This chapter focuses on supply chain strategies that benefit organizations to meet the global challenges and business success. The chapter supports understanding of functional coordination in supply chain management, importance of supply chain partnership and performance measures, bullwhip cause-effect and consequences, business promotion strategies, and approach to synchronize operation schedule to improve supply chain operations. Bullwhip effect is often seen as a challenge to improve supply chain performances. It also discusses the strategies to reduce bullwhip effect, various well-known contract agreements that are currently practiced by many supply chain organizations, its impact and benefits on supply chain success.

Supply chain analysis required in the entire business process because it produced a more sufficient product on the producer to the consumer level with the precise condition, time, and amount of product. This study purpose was to analyze the main product flow, mechanism, and supply chain performance of the chicken meat produced by the Dua Putra Perkasa Pratama Company (Inc.) The study location was chosen by a purposive sampling technique, while the participant selection done by judgment sampling technique. The participants were the supplier, key informant from the company, and customer. The supply chain, mechanism, and performance data analyzed by descriptive analysis method with the Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR) model. Results showed that the flow of the supply chain, financial supply chain, and informational was moving from the upstream to downstream,  downstream to upstream, and upstream to downstream or downstream to upstream, respectively. The company supply chain performance classified in a very good range performance with a total score of 96.73.

In the constantly changing business environment, companies are required to compete against their rivals. In this regard, they should be improved immediately. For that purpose, they need to discover their status in the market and to monitor it over time regarding their competitors. To understand the status of the chain, it is necessary to have a general idea of how it works and how efficient/effective it works, which can be achieved through supply chain analysis. Supply chain analysis is the process of modeling and performance evaluation with a set of tools and methods. This chapter will discuss the most well-known tool for the modeling of supply chain, Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR). Furthermore, we will discuss the performance metrics to evaluate how the supply chain is performing. Moreover, a typology of the supply chain is outlined to help the manager in describing the chain with a collection of attributes that can affect decision making. It is also a supportive tool for the second level of the SCOR model or any planning software.

<p>Study of SME in Indonesia related with business networks and performance in these business organizations. In many cases, regional administration in Indonesia develops SME business network in the form of clusters. This study analyzes SME fisheries clusters with supply chain analysis.  We also develop performance assessment of SME fisheries cluster by using multivariate model. This study involves 62 SMEs in Sragen, Central Java Indonesia. Those SMEs  includes in fisheries cluster in the area. Our findings show that SME fisheries cluster has in-efficient supply chain. This business clusters has problems in profit setting and delivery time which harm their performance. We measure business performance by using business selling, profit rate and asset growth. We found that cost structure, man power and physical production has positive effects to business performance. </p>

PT. Pupuk Kaltim is biggest manure manufacturer in Indonesia, where its market area covering entire Sulawesi, Bali, some of Kalimantan East Java, Papua, Japan, Taiwan, India, and Australia. Main produced product of PT Pupuk Kaltim is based fertilizer. To meet the demand, PT Kaltim produce up to 2,3 million tons per year.Identifiaction process of supply chain done by accesing company website of PT Kaltim. Then it is outlined each step of supply chain from aggregate planning, production process, suppliers selection, quality mangement, warehousing, performance measure and used transportation unit. From that criteria would visible supply chain of based-fertilizer in PT Pupuk Kaltim. By having long and wide supply chain, PT Pupuk Kaltim still have bullwhip effect because of inacurate in forecasting cause over-stock or out of stock in many production period. In quality, PT Kaltim had got ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 17025 certification in production management and sea-port.Keywords: Fertilizer, supply chain, analysis

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to carry out structural analysis of potential supply chain risks and performance measures in fresh food retail by applying interpretive structural modeling (ISM). Design/methodology/approach – Inputs were taken from industry experts in identifying and understanding interdependencies among food retail supply chain risks on different levels (sourcing and logistics outside the retail stores; storage and customer interface at the stores). Interdependencies among risks and their impact on performance measures are structured into a hierarchy in order to derive subsystems of interdependent elements to derive useful insights for theory and practice. Findings – Using the ISM approach the risks and performance measures were clustered according to their driving power and dependence power. Change in/inadequate government regulations’ are at the bottom level of the hierarchy implying highest driving power and require higher attention and focussed mitigation strategies. Risks like lack of traceability, transport delays/breakdowns and temperature abuse, cross-contamination in transport and storage have medium driver and dependence powers. Research limitations/implications – The approach is focussed on food retail supply chains in the Indian context and thereby limits the ability to generalize the findings. The academics and experts were selected on convenience and availability. Practical implications – It gives managers a better understanding of the risks and performance measures that have most influence on others (driving performance measures) and those measures which are most influenced by others (dependent performance measures) in fresh food retail and also a tool to prioritize them. This kind of information is strategic for managers who can use it to identify which performance measures they should concentrate on managing the trade-offs between measures. The findings and the applicability for practical use have been validated by both experts and practicing managers in food retail supply chains. Originality/value – The work is perhaps the first to link supply chain risks with performance and explains the propagation of risks in food retail supply chains. It contributes to theory by addressing a few research gaps and provides relevant managerial insights for practitioners.
