The purpose of this study is to identify the sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) by using factor analysis (exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis). Using a survey questionnaire, data were collected 230 respondents from private hospitals in Malaysia.

Regarding this, SSCM model provides a useful guide for Malaysian private hospitals to implement supply chain in terms of SSCM dimensions. Thus, SSCM practices implementation can improve the supply chain and performance in Malaysian private hospitals.
