In the rapidly evolving landscape of global supply chains, where digital disruptions and sustainability imperatives converge, traditional operational frameworks often struggle to adapt. This paper introduces the Design-Based Supply Chain Operations Research Model (DSCORM), a novel extension of the Design SCOR (D-SCOR) framework, which embeds operational research (OR) techniques to enhance decision-making, resilience, and environmental stewardship. Building on the foundational processes of D-SCOR—such as Design, Orchestrate, Plan, Order, Source, Transform, Fulfil, and Return—DSCORM incorporates predictive analytics, simulation modelling, and optimization algorithms to address contemporary challenges like supply chain volatility and ESG (environmental, social, governance) compliance.
