چکیده

زنجیره تأمین روغن نباتی مشتمل بر چهار بازار به هم پیوسته می باشد. این بازارها شامل دانه­های روغنی، روغن خام، کنجاله و روغن خوراکی می­باشد. امروزه فناوری اطلاعات و ارتباطات یکپارچه در بهبود زنجیره تأمین نقش انکارناپذیری دارد. پذیرش هر فنآوری جدید بخش مهمی از توسعه آن می­باشد. هدف از این مطالعه شناسایی و رتبه­بندی ترجیحات بازیگران زنجیره تأمین روغن نباتی کشور نسبت به ویژگی­های فنآوری بلاکچین است. به این منظور از روش فرآیند تحلیل سلسله مراتبی (AHP) استفاده شد. برای تعیین وزن ماتریس مقایسات زوجی، با 15 کارشناس متشکل از کارشناسان علمی از رشته­های مرتبط و همچنین کارگزاران زنجیره تأمین روغن نباتی در سال 1400 مصاحبه انجام گرفت. در این پژوهش، شاخص­های اصلی بهبود مدیریت، بهبود عملکرد، امنیت داده، شفافیت، ردگیری و پدیداری و زیرشاخص­های آنها مورد ارزیابی قرار گرفتند. نتایج حاصل از محاسبه وزن نهایی نشان داد که زیرشاخص­های "افزایش اعتماد بین سازمانی"،"سازگاری"، "سازگاری داده­های ایمن" به­ترتیب با وزنی معادل 4670/0، 0428/0 و 04282/0 بالاترین اهمیت را داشتند. همچنین شاخص­های "تغییرناپذیری داده­ها"، "ارتباط نزدیک با تأمین­کنندگان"، "سطح حریم خصوصی"، "پیش­بینی"، "قابلیت برنامه‌ریزی استراتژیک"، "کاهش زمان بازپرسازی" و "انجام به موقع سفارش" به­ترتیب در رده­های بعدی قرار گرفتند. به این ترتیب مهمترین چالش در زنجیره عرضه فعلی و بهتزین فرصت برای زنجیره جدید عدم اعتماد بین حلقه­ها و فعالان می­باشد. به­منظور دستیابی به مدیریت بهینه زنجیره تأمین، پیشنهاد می­شود آموزش و آشنایی بیشتر بازیگران زنجیره تأمین با تکنولوژی­های جدید و ویژگی­های آنها در دستور کار قرار گیرد. همچنین برنامه­ریزی و آماده­سازی زیرساخت‌های لازم جهت پیاده­سازی فناوری بلاکچین در کشور پیشنهاد می­شود.

چکیده [English]

There are four interconnected markets, i.e. oilseeds, crude oil, meal and edible oil, in the vegetable oil supply chain. Nowadays, emerging tools in context of information and communication technologies (ICTs) have critical role to develop the supply chain. The purpose of this study is to identify and prioritize actors' preferences for using blockchain technology in the vegetable oil supply chain. For this purpose, we applied the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. We interviewed 15 experts, including scientific specialists from adjacent fields and actors in the vegetable oil supply chain, in 2021, to determine the weight of the pairwise comparison matrix. This study evaluated the leading indicators of management improvement, performance improvement, data security, transparency, traceability and visibility, as well as their sub-indicators. The calculation of final weight revealed the most relevance of sub-indices, i.e. increasing inter-organizational trust, compatibility and secure data compatibility, with value of 0.467, 0.043 and 0.043, respectively. The rest of the indicators were also ranked as data immutability, close relationship with suppliers, degree of privacy, forecasting, strategic planning capabilities, reduction of lead time and doing the order on time, respectively. The lack of trust between circles and actors is thus the most crucial obstacle and the largest potential for the new chain in the current supply chain. More training and knowledge of supply chain players on emerging technologies should be put on the agenda to achieve optimal supply chain management. Our results also suggested solutions for advocating for the planning and development of the required infrastructure for the implementation of blockchain technology in Iran.
