Despite the advantages portrayed by the poultry sector in the country, stiff competition is still encountered with business transformation situation. The rigid and static structures of the Indonesian poultry industry are also reflected in bureaucracy, fear-based cultures, the inefficiency of functional silos, and aversion to change, leading to the need for appropriate agility incorporation. Therefore, this study aims to identify and analyze the key challenges and enablers influencing the achievement of business agility, as well as construct a structural interpretation model for the process through ISM (Interpretative Structural Modeling). The results showed that the hierarchical structure establishment of the influential factors emphasized a logical linkage through ISM implementation. This structural level also identified the major challenges to attaining business agility, indicating the difficulties encountered in work culture transformation and mindset adjustment toward an agile orientation. Meanwhile, management response and knowledge deftness are key enablers in achieving business agility. These results are expected to help business professionals in implementing sustainable organizational model, due to the existence of business agility.
