Although it enumerates several prominent advantages, which are mainly related to its systematic and holistic approach, there appear to be a couple of opportunities for further development of the model. Firstly, SCOR Model, being strongly operationally-oriented, relies heavily on benchmarking practices and does not take into consideration pertinent pitfalls highlighted by the concept of Business Strategy. Secondly, although the model has already followed the Sustainability current, practitioners appear to resist or fail to make use of the incorporated sustainable features. On this basis, this thesis attempts to explore how the notions of Business Strategy and Business Sustainability can be effectively incorporated in and contribute to the improvement of the SCOR Model towards the described directions. A qualitative approach is adopted and interview sessions with Supply Chain professionals are performed. Their views are recorded and used for the extraction of valuable conclusions as well as for the conceptual design of an updated version of the SCOR Model.
