Abstract
Shrimp industry is important for Thai economy due to high volume of export. However, there is an increasing trend in shrimp consumption in domestic market as well. Our objective is to study the current supply chain of a medium sized primary shrimp processor in Samut Sakhon province. First, we analyze its business process and identify the problems and propose the improvement. The business process is analyzed by using Integration Definition for Function Modeling (IDEF0) to illustrate major activities in the current situation of primary processing facility. Next, we propose guidelines to improve efficiency in each activity. We found that the temperature control material of shrimp during production is ice since it is convenient and need low investment. In summary, the appropriate material to control the temperature is important to minimize cost and maintain the quality of shrimp. In addition, the proper production processes can increase the productivity. Keywords: Business Process Analysis; IDEF; Shrimp; Supply Chain Management
