In response to increasing competition in the manufacturing sector, PT X—a copper busbar manufacturing company—implemented Lean Manufacturing supported by Value Stream Mapping (VSM) to improve production efficiency and reduce supply chain costs. This study utilizes VSM, Value Stream Analysis Tools (VALSAT), and Root Cause Analysis (5 Whys) to identify sources of waste and formulate improvement strategies. The analysis identified three dominant wastes: waiting time, product defects, and excess inventory. These were mainly caused by the lack of standardized material procedures, inadequate supporting equipment, and poor integration between the incoming inspection process and the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system. To address these issues, the study proposes installing silica rolls, providing air wipers and flatness tools, developing standardized work instructions, and integrating Internet of Things (IoT) technology with the ERP system for real-time monitoring. As a result of implementing these solutions, PT X successfully reduced its defect rate from 6.23% to 1.32%, decreased lead time, and achieved notable savings in supply chain costs. The findings demonstrate that integrating Lean Manufacturing principles with VSM can effectively eliminate non-value-added activities, streamline production processes, and enhance overall competitiveness. This study reinforces the strategic value of Lean tools in continuous improvement initiatives within the manufacturing industry.

This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach that aims to systematically describe the procedure for purchasing raw materials on credit at PT Bernofarm Pharmaceutical Company. The study focuses on various stages of purchasing, coordination between related departments (such as PPIC, purchasing, QC, warehouse, and accounting), and the use of documents and recording tools such as Microsoft Excel and ERP systems. This study is motivated by the importance of implementing standard purchasing procedures to ensure smooth production processes, accuracy of debt recording, and quality of raw materials. Primary data were obtained through direct observation during internship activities and unstructured interviews with management, especially the accounting department. Meanwhile, secondary data were obtained through a review of relevant literature to strengthen the analysis and discussion. The analysis technique was carried out qualitatively through the process of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study indicate that the procedure for purchasing raw materials on credit at PT Bernofarm is in line with the principles of internal control based on the COSO framework and meets applicable quality management standards, such as GMP/CPOB and ISO. Each stage from supplier evaluation, quality inspection, to debt repayment shows orderly and documented control.

This research investigates the implementation of stock opname procedures in the General Affair warehouse at PT Bernofarm Pharmaceutical Company, a major pharmaceutical manufacturer. The study responds to the problem of discrepancies in inventory data, which can disrupt operations due to inaccurate recording or delays in documentation. The objective is to analyze the effectiveness and structure of stock opname procedures in controlling non-productive inventory. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, utilizing observation and interviews with Accounting and General Affair warehouse staff to collect primary data. The findings reveal that stock opname at PT Bernofarm is conducted periodically through coordinated stages: scheduling, preparation of inventory data, physical inspection, data reconciliation, reporting, and inventory adjustment. The procedures are carried out collaboratively between the Accounting and General Affair divisions, with clearly defined responsibilities and documentation such as stock cards, credit memos, and goods receipts. Despite a difference in theoretical and practical implementation—where inventory recording is managed by warehouse staff rather than accounting—the presence of functional segregation and supervisory checks ensures effective internal control. The study concludes that a structured and consistent stock opname process improves data accuracy, minimizes discrepancies, and enhances accountability. This research is limited to non-productive inventory in a single company division, and further studies are suggested to explore digital solutions or comparative analyses across industries.

This study was conducted to evaluate the quality of banana chips products at My Kripis by using the Check Sheet and Fishbone Diagram methods. The main problem found was the high rate of defective products, which reached 3.79% of the total monthly production. The largest type of defect was recorded as inappropriate banana ripeness during the frying process, which amounted to 18 kg out of a total of 37.2 kg of defective products. Data was collected through direct observation and interviews, then analyzed using an inspection sheet to identify the type and frequency of defects. Results showed that the dominant cause of defective products came from raw material factors, such as non-uniform banana ripeness and inconsistent slice thickness. A Fishbone Diagram was used to identify root causes from various aspects, including man, methods, machines, and materials. These findings served as the basis for recommendations to improve the production process, such as standardizing cutting procedures, training operators, and monitoring the quality of raw materials. This research confirms the importance of simple yet systematic quality control for MSMEs to sustainably improve product quality.
