. Ekspor memainkan peran penting dalam pertumbuhan ekonomi, memberikan kontribusi terhadap devisa negara dan meningkatkan daya saing di pasar internasional. Menentukan produk ekspor unggulan menjadi tantangan karena harus mempertimbangkan berbagai faktor, seperti nilai ekonomi, permintaan pasar, stabilitas harga, dan keberlanjutan produksi. Keputusan yang kurang tepat dapat berdampak pada efisiensi, daya saing produk lokal, dan bahkan ketergantungan pada pasar global.

Penggunaan sistem pendukung keputusan (SPK) dapat membantu mempermudah proses ini dengan menyediakan analisis berbasis data yang lebih objektif. Metode MOORA (Multi-Objective Optimization on the Basis of Ratio Analysis) dapat digunakan untuk menentukan bobot kriteria, membantu pengambil keputusan untuk menilai seberapa penting setiap faktor yang terlibat. Sementara itu, TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) digunakan untuk memilih alternatif terbaik berdasarkan kedekatannya dengan solusi ideal yang diinginkan. Pendekatan ini bertujuan untuk memberikan rekomendasi yang lebih objektif dan akurat, mendukung pengambil kebijakan serta pelaku usaha dalam menetapkan strategi ekspor yang optimal. Dengan cara ini, daya saing produk lokal dapat ditingkatkan secara berkelanjutan, memastikan pertumbuhan ekonomi yang lebih stabil dan meningkatkan posisi negara di pasar global
