Track: Supply Chain Management

Abstract

The procurement process of imported goods is one of the important stages in the project completion at a construction company in Indonesia. The optimal imported goods procurement involves the transportation mode used and the cargo type carried. This research aims to design a decision model for the transportation mode selection according to the cargo type imported goods in the construction company. The Grey-DEMATEL method is used for the criteria selection to select transportation mode. Sequential Interactive Modelling for Urban Systems (SIMUS) method is used to design a model for transportation mode selection decisions. Results of this research shows that seven criteria were used to select the transportation mode, specifically transportation costs, on-time delivery, travel time, frequency of shipment, the capability of tracking cargo, goods quality during the transportation, and accidental rate. This research also shows an alternative transportation mode that is optimal to deliver imported goods. Air transportation using freight forwarder P is the best alternative to deliver general cargo and dangerous cargo. Oversize cargo delivery is more optimal using the sea transportation of freight forwarder P.
