With the increasing complexity of the process industry, having excellent maintenance management is essential for manufacturing industries. Various parts that interact and interdependent with each other make a well-planned maintenance strategy is one of the major challenges facing by industry. The whole system could be interrupted just simply because of the failure of a component. Therefore, a review of a maintenance strategy must be done from a system perspective. It is suggested that the optimal preventive maintenance time interval is not only determined by the lowest maintenance cost of each machine but also its impact on the whole system. Two main indicators that can accommodate the system perspective are reliability and revenue. A large number of machines and the array of machines can be synthesized in the reliability indicator. Moreover, the creation of maximum revenue is always the main goal for a business. The best maintenance strategy will be determined from the revenue obtained by a process industry. The process industry discussed in this study is a flour mill which is very well known in Surabaya. This study applied a hybrid simulation to solve this problem. Monte Carlo simulation was used to observe the machine individually and the results are reviewed using the application of System Dynamics. Three improvement scenarios were proposed in this simulation study. Scenario 2 was chosen as the best scenario because it was able to generate the highest revenue at the end of the period. Scenario 2 recommends setting the preventive maintenance time interval considering resource availability.
Coconut is one of Indonesia's strategic agricultural commodities. However, in the past five years, many issues on the sustainability of the coconut supply chain in Indonesia have been revealed in the mass media. This study aims to explore the issue by exploring discussions that emerge in online news articles. It employs content analysis and binary factor analysis to investigate and construct the information in identifying and narrating the issue of sustainability of the coconut supply chain in Indonesia. The result shows that the sustainability of the coconut supply chain in Indonesia experiences disruptions and requires an immediate long-term strategy for restoration. This will provide insight into the real condition of the coconut supply chain in Indonesia so that could become the basis for further research. Future work should include a simulation study to find the best policy in maintaining the sustainability of the coconut supply chain in Indonesia.

Numerous Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) do not have a basic method in pricing decisions. Many times, this decision comes up based on an intuitive probe instead of a detailed analysis. This could lead to marketing problems, which may result in disruptions of financial liquidity. This also applies to SMEs wishing to sell products through the online channel. They need a proper pricing strategy, considering its different marketing strategies. Sales made through both offline channels (conventional stores) and online channels are known as Dual-Channel Supply Chain (DCSC). It is argued that the pricing decision at DCSC needs to consider consumer preferences in selecting the sales channel. One assumption commonly adopted in the DCSC pricing model is that the lost value if consumers purchase products through online channels. Therefore, the pricing decision for the online channel should be cheaper than the price on the offline channel. This study aims to assist SMEs in the ex-localization of Dolly in Surabaya in determining the price of products to be sold through online channels. Three types of products: batik, chips, and leather shoes were selected as research samples to represent the product groups: craft, fashion, and processed food. This study proposes an optimal online price strategy through experiments with a mathematical model. Model parameters, namely consumer preferences in choosing sales channels, are obtained through surveys. Apart from that, surveys are also used to reveal which platforms consumers are interested in shopping online. Shopee and Instagram were chosen by respondents as the most popular marketplaces and social media for online shopping. Finally, the online prices proposed for the batik product are IDR 82,500-IDR 66,000; chips Rp7,620-Rp6,336; and leather shoes Rp.103,800-Rp82,200.
Increasing concern about the sustainability of supply chain operations is motivating companies and organizations to pursue strategies to reduce their contribution to global environmental and social negative impacts. While most papers in the field of sustainable supply chains have focused on economic and environmental performance at the firm level, recently some studies have considered the problem at the national level. However, there still exists a gap in quantitatively modeling social impacts, together with environmental and economic impacts, at the global level. To fill this gap, this research presents a multi-objective mathematical model for the design and planning of a supply chain, integrating the three dimensions of sustainability (economic, environmental, and social). In this research, the economic dimension of sustainability is addressed by considering the costs of the supply chain. Then MRIO, a national input-output table that describes the interdependencies between countries and economic sectors, is integrated with national environmental and social impacts to construct a triple bottom line (3BL) approach by industrial sectors. This model supports decision making by including both direct impacts, as well as indirect impacts, associated with upstream supply chain paths. This expands the range of impact considered in sustainable performance measurement both within and beyond the supply chain boundary. The integrated model can improve a company's ability to select supply chain partners based on a wider range of criteria, rather than being based on economics alone. A case study is conducted that considers three tiers of the transportation and equipment supply chain, which consists of six industrial sectors that are part of a larger system of fourteen industrial sectors operating across seventeen of the largest manufacturing countries in the world. The model is solved using a [epsilon]-constraint method; and the resulting Pareto optimal curves show the tradeoffs between the economic, environmental and social dimensions. The results reveal that indirect economic activities dominate when contributing to the environmental and social impact of the whole system. Expanding the scope of sustainability changes supply chain configuration decisions. Therefore, the primary result from this research is that firms and industry sectors need to change their focus from solely on economic aspects and include environmental and social aspects in supply chain decision making at operational and/or strategic levels of decisions.
Pangan organik merupakan hasil produksi dari pertanian organik. Pertanian organik merupakan teknik budidaya pertanian yang berorientasi pada pemanfaatan bahan-bahan alami (lokal) tanpa menggunakan bahan-bahan kimia sintesis seperti pupuk, pestisida (kecuali bahan yang diperkenankan). Tujuan utama pertanian organik adalah menyediakan produk-produk pertanian, terutama bahan pangan yang aman bagi kesehatan produsen dan konsumen dan tidak merusak lingkungan. Tantangan yang dihadapi dalam mengembangkan pertanian organik adalah produktivitas yang rendah, pendistribusian hasil produksi, jumlah dan keahlian tenaga kerja manusia, keberadaan organisme pengganggu tanaman, dan kurangnya pemahaman masyarakat mengenai pangan organik. Pengabdian Masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk memberikan pemahaman dan kesadaran pentingnya pertanian organik. Selain itu materi yang diberikan adalah mengenai sistem rantai pasok industri pertanian. Pengabdian masyarakat telah dilaksanakan dengan baik dan lancar. Peserta pengabdian adalah Orang Muda Katolik (OMK) Paroki St. Vincentius A Paulo Kediri, St. Yosef Kediri dan St. Markus Pare Keuskupan Surabaya.
Pabrik Gula X merupakan salah satu unit usaha milik PT XYZ yang memiliki hasil produk utama Gula Kristal Putih (GKP). Pada suatu kegiatan supply chain mempunyai masing-masing risiko yang dapat memberikan dampak terganggunya aktivitas supply chain sehingga tidak dapat berjalan sesuai target. Hal itu juga yang dihadapi PG X dimana belum ada identifikasi dan mitigasi risiko yang terstruktur dan komprehensif mengenai supply chain sehingga menyebabkan kapasitas giling dari tahun ke tahun belum pernah mencapai target yang telah ditetapkan. Maka dari itu, perlu adanya suatu manajemen risiko yang tepat pada supply chain atau yang sering dikenal dengan Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM). Adapun tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengetahui faktor yang paling berisiko dan dapat memberikan solusi/usulan strategi mitigasi dalam menangani risiko tersebut. Pada penelitian ini menggunakan metode House of Risk (HoR) yang digunakan untuk mengidentifikasi risiko disepanjang rantai pasok. Pengolahan dengan HOR ini dibagi menjadi 2 fase, yakni fase pertama bertujuan untuk memperoleh urutan prioritas dari sumber risiko yang akan diberi tindakan penanganan dan fase kedua yaitu mendapatkan prioritas aksi mitigasi risiko. Proses pengambilan data dilakukan dengan cara wawancara dan menggunakan metode logika fuzzy dalam pengolahannya. Hal ini karena logika fuzzy mempunyai tingkat toleransi terhadap suatu informasi yang bersifat samar, tidak akurat dan ambigu. Dengan kata lain dapat merepresentasikan hal yang mengandung ketidakpastian. Dari hasil penelitian tedapat 42 kejadian risiko (risk agent) dan 16 penyebab risiko (risk event) yang berhasil teridentifikasi. Terdapat 11 strategi mitigasi sebagai usulan yang dapat dilakukan dalam menangani 9 risk agent prioritas. Dari hasil yang didapat dari penelitian ini tentunya diharapkan dapat menjadi rekomendasi solusi ataupun perbaikan untuk kegiatan supply chain PG X kedepannya.
