Supply chain management in Indonesia is known as supply chain management or SCM.
Indonesia has a number of important ports that are the main gateway to shipping goods from and throughout the world, such as the Port of Tanjung Priok in Jakarta and Tanjung Perak Port in Surabaya.
One of the main challenges in supply chain management in Indonesia is inadequate infrastructure, especially in remote areas and difficult to reach.
However, Indonesia has abundant natural resources, such as coal mines, petroleum, and oil palm plantations which are important raw materials in the manufacturing industry.
The fisheries industry is also one of the important sectors in supply chain management in Indonesia, with fish exports and fishery products reach billions of dollars each year.
Indonesia also has a number of large logistics companies that provide shipping and distribution services to all corners of the country, such as JNE, TIKI, and Pos Indonesia.
Supply chain management in Indonesia is increasingly developing with the presence of information technology and integrated management systems, such as ERP and SCM systems that facilitate the supervision and control of business processes.
Some universities in Indonesia have held special study programs and courses in supply chain management, such as the University of Indonesia, Gadjah Mada University, and Bandung Institute of Technology.
In recent years, Indonesia has also begun to focus on developing the halal and environmentally friendly packaging industry, which requires more integrated and sustainable supply chain management.
Supply chain management in Indonesia is also influenced by social and cultural factors, such as consumer habits in shopping and how to do business that is personal and long-term oriented.
