A Proposed Supply Chain Model of Blockchain Technology-Based in Automotive Component Industry

The automotive industry has rapidly developed and overrun the market for the last decade. In this context, automotive components or parts are essential factors to manufacture automotive products. Undoubtedly, the supplier that provides the automotive components or inbound logistics becomes a critical party of Supply Chain Management activity. In this frame, the failure of inbound logistics potentially creates a severe implication to the automotive industry in terms of the financial effects, company image to damage the customer. Arguably, the supplier activities encompass the continuity of automotive components delivery, on-time delivery schedule, supplier and customer relationship maintenance, and financial operation. In this point, the problem identifies the distribution of automotive components and stock maintenance. Therefore, this qualitative research is essential to explore a proposed Blockchain Technology model in Supply Chain Management (BlcSCM), especially in the automotive component industry. On that basis, design science research methodology facilitates to create a proposed model, Leavitt Diamond. In this model, the essential factors (people, process, technology, and organization) merges with supply chain management. Finally, it refers to the Blockchain Technology model in Supply Chain Management.
