Modeling the Competitiveness of Indonesian Palm Oil Industry: A Conceptual Model Using Hierarchical Multi-Level System Approach
Abstrak: Indonesian Palm Oil
Industry has the largest market share in the world, but still faces problems in
order to strengthen the level of competitiveness. Those problems are in the
industry chains, government regulation and policy as meso environment, and macro
economic condition. Therefore these three elements should be considered when
analyzing the improvement of competitiveness. Here, the governmental element is
hoped to create a conducive environment. This paper presents the industry
competitiveness conceptual model, using hierarchical multilevel system
approach. The Hierarchical multilevel system approach is used to accommodate
the complexity of the industrial relation and the government position as the
meso environment. The step to develop the model firstly is to define the
relevant system. Secondly, is to formulate the output of the model that is
competitiveness in the form of indicator. Then, the relevant system with
competitiveness as the output is built into a conceptual model using
hierarchical multilevel system. The conceptual model is then discussed to see
if it can explain the relevant system, and the potential of it to be developed
into mathematical model.
