Abstract To produce competitive products, Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs), one of which is Agronas as a potato chip producer in Batu City, must continue to improve the quality of their products by minimizing production defects. Quality defects on potato chips occurred in color, crispness, wholeness, and size consistency indicators. This study aimed to identify and analyze the factors causing defects in potato chips and to design alternative improvement strategies. The research method used is Six Sigma Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve dan Control (DMAIC), with a sample size of 15 packs for each variable. The results showed that the main priority of the defined stage for quality improvement was crispness and size consistency with a Critical To Quality (CTQ) value of 80.2%. In the measuring stage, based on the process capability value, the final result is 82.3% which has a value above the industry standard in Indonesia of 69.2%. The result of the analysis of the DPMO value of 177,425 is equivalent to 2.43 sigma. The priority of improvement is the two highest defect levels of crispness and size consistency. Factors causing defects in potato chip crispness include limited manpower, lack of supervision and training, different levels of quality, manual packaging, and less than optimal frying. Alternative improvement strategies are labor controlling from the manager, providing training and process SOPs, supervising the selection of raw materials, and checking packaging equipment regularly. Factors causing defects in potato chips’ size consistency include limited manpower, lack of supervision and training, and the absence of a chip rating machine. Alternative improvements include training and process SOPs, supervision in grading chips, and procurement of grading machines.

Abstract Batu City, Indonesia, has the local product potentials of potato chips with a number of 30 Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs). In improving their competitiveness, SMEs still have problems in product standardization, such as low communication and coordination in production and marketing among SMEs, Government, and marketing agencies. The research aimed to cluster the potato chips SMEs in Batu City for the business development strategy. The study method was the integration of k-means clustering and Fuzzy Analytical Network Process with 9 SMEs as respondents, which met the criteria required. The variables used in clustering are production capacity, number of workers, average turnover, length of operation, and halal certification status. The results showed that the SMEs of potato chips were formed in 2 clusters where cluster 1 (4 SMEs) of a micro-scale and cluster 2 (5 SMEs) of small-scale businesses. Cluster 1 developed the strategy by increasing access to capital, while cluster 2 through marketing access. The success rate of determining the SMEs industrial cluster development strategy will depend directly on the cooperation between institutions include core industries, supporting industries, raw material suppliers, and other supporting institutions.

ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) offers both opportunities and challenges to Indonesian Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs). Highly competitive SMEs are likely to exploit opportunities from AEC by expanding their markets and securing raw materials at lower costs. On the contrary, the increasingly intense competition is likely to marginalize less competitive SMEs in their own domestic market. This study aims to analyze the SMEs competitiveness in anticipating AEC. Using 64 SMEs that already export their products or have potentials to export as the sample; this research shows that Indonesian SMEs exhibit a high competitiveness level from the perspective of the production factor, the availability of related and supporting industries factor (especially in relation to the availability of raw and supporting materials), and the demand factor. However, SME owners acknowledge that AEC intensify competition and the government has not provided adequate facilities to improve the SME competitiveness.

Abstract The Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs) clusters of tempeh chips face critical problems in the production process, i.e., the low quality of raw materials, defective products, and fluctuating sales. These issues affect their productivity, leading to impending improvements. One effort to increase productivity is to increase efficiency during the production process. The research objectives are to analyze and improve the efficiency of soybean chips production using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). The objects of research are 5 SMEs that are producing tempeh chips in the same classification. The results showed that the efficiency of production variables are losses, labor, and sales results. The efficiency value is 89.4%-100%, which shows that the production process runs inefficiently due to the high number of losses during the production process, inaccurate production targets, low product selling prices, and limited marketing. The suggested improvement for industries is to improve raw material planning and employee performance to reduce the number of losses that occurred, evaluate and upgrade the supply chain management, optimize social media marketing, and increase the competitiveness of tempeh chips products.

Upaya mempercepat laju ekspor Indonesia melalui peningkatan ekspor dari sektor usaha kecil dan menegah (UKM) merupakan pendekatan yang strategis. UKM telah terbukti sebagai sektor yang mampu bertahan dalam situasi krisis ekonomi domestik dan global. Namun demikian, UKM menghadapi beberapa kendala dalam menembus pasar internasional. Trading House dapat menjadi salah satu solusi dalam mengatasi kendala tersebut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyusun kriteria prioritas produk potensial ekspor dan sekaligus menentukan produk prioritas ekspor UKM yang akan dimasukkan dalam Trading House. Data yang digunakan adalah data sekunder yang berasal dari BPS dan data primer yang berasal dari FGD. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode Analytical Network Process (ANP). Metode ANP diharapkan dapat memberikan hasil yang lebih bagus mengingat kemampuannya dalam memperhitungkan interaksi dua arah antar elemen dan kluster dalam kerangka penelitian. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa kriteria prioritas untuk menentukan produk Trading House adalah pangsa ekspor, impor dunia dan ketersediaan bahan baku lokal. Produk prioritas Trading House adalah perhiasan dan aksesoris, furnitur, makanan olahan, produk tekstil dan garmen, minyak atsiri (produk spa aromaterapi). Pemerintah perlu segera membangun Trading House yang komprehensif dan mensosialisasikan fungsinya kepada pelaku usaha terutama UKM. One of the efforts to accelerate Indonesian exports can be done through increasing small and medium enterprises (SMEs) which is a strategic approach. SMEs are able to survive in the domestic and global economic crisis even though they experienced some obstacles in getting an access to international market. Trading House could be a solution in overcoming the SMEs difficulties. This study aims to establish priority criteria of potential export products as well as priority of export products of SMEs through Trading House. This study utilized both secondary data coming from BPS and primary data from Focus Group Discussion (FGD), and used Analytical Network Process (ANP) method. The ANP is aimed to give the best solution of the problem since it considers two way interactions between elements or clusters (feedback). The results show that the priority criteria for determining Trading House products include the share of exports, world imports and the availability of local raw materials. Trading House priority products are jewelry and accessories, furniture, processed foods, textile and garment products, essential oils (aromatherapy spa products).The government must immediately build a comprehensive Trading House and socialize its functions to business players, especially SMEs.

Abstract To improve quality, production, and service delivery, clothing industries look toward continuous improvement approaches such as lean manufacturing, Six Sigma, and Lean Six Sigma (LSS). Simulation is one of the effective methods which aim to examine different solution scenarios. This study explores how LSS and simulation can be integrated based on the Sim-Lean approach, using a process improvement effort in clothing small–medium enterprises (SMEs). A structured framework integrating these research methodologies is developed, which might benefit a variety of future clothing process improvement efforts, and could inform quality improvement efforts in other industries. The aim is to allow a successful implementation of the approach in the clothing industry to improve the lead time, the daily output, the average staying times (min) of jobs waiting in queues, and the resource utilization.
