The lowest index was found for institutional dimension (36.21) and the highest was environment dimension (64.79). From the leverage analysis, some critical attributes in each dimensions were found and need improvement to increase the sustainability. Institutional strengthening and accelerated development of infrastructure are the crucial factor should be prioritized for the development of palm oil based industrial cluster at Sei Mangkei.
