Humanitarian Supply Chain Framework for Zakat Humanitarian Aid

Abstract

This research devises a Humanitarian Supply Chain Management (HSCM) framework designed to enhance the efficacy of Zakat distribution within the context of disaster management in Indonesia. The study delineates critical indicators as principal components in the management of humanitarian-based Zakat supply chains. Employing an exploratory methodology with a conceptual model development approach, the analysis involves a comprehensive synthesis of diverse humanitarian supply chain models, incorporating the Disaster Management Cycle, Humanitarian Logistics Flow, and the SCOR model. The findings reveal a marked congruence between Zakat distribution in disaster scenarios and conventional humanitarian supply chains. The proposed framework posits the flow of goods, information, and inter-organizational coordination as cardinal components in assuring precision targeting and expedited responsiveness. Subsequent research may focus on field testing and SCOR-based performance measurement to empirically validate the framework's effectiveness. The results furnish an operational roadmap for BAZNAS and LAZ to formulate a Zakat distribution system that is responsive, standardized, and adaptive to the dynamic exigencies of disaster scenarios. Furthermore, this framework facilitates the formulation of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), the needs assessment of beneficiaries (mustahik), and the integration of digitally-enabled data streams.
