Abstract

This study investigates the transformative potential of Digital Twin (DT) technology in the Halal supply chain, focusing on its role in enhancing traceability, ensuring compliance, and improving operational efficiency. Drawing on a qualitative research approach, insights were collected through interviews with industry experts, including supply chain managers, technology consultants, and academic researchers. Thematic analysis revealed that DT offers significant benefits, such as real-time tracking, blockchain-enabled transparency, and predictive analytics, which collectively address key challenges in Halal supply chain management. However, barriers such as high implementation costs, limited technical expertise, and scalability concerns were identified, particularly for small and medium enterprises. The study also highlights opportunities for leveraging DT to meet the increasing consumer demand for transparency and Halal assurance. These findings contribute to the emerging discourse on DT's application in the Halal industry and offer actionable insights for stakeholders aiming to modernize supply chain practices while maintaining strict compliance with Halal standards.
