SALAZAR, Fernando; CAVAZOS, Judith  y  MARTINEZ, José L. Methodology based on the Supply Chain Operations Reference Model to Analyze the Production Process of Biodiesel from Castor Oil Plant. Inf. tecnol. [online]. 2012, vol.23, n.1, pp. 47-56. ISSN 0718-0764.  doi: 10.4067/S0718-07642012000100006.

The production process of Biodiesel from castor oil plants is analyzed using the Supply Chain Operations Reference Model (SCOR). The different levels of the process, the key performance indicators, the attributes and the logistic operations carried out throughout the chain were analyzed. The usefulness of applying the SCOR model is determined by the identification of the components of the chain, highlighting strengths and weaknesses of external and internal relations of the logistics. From this perspective it was observed that the implementation of the SCOR model makes more efficient the logistics operations through the whole chain.
