Abstract

Abstract— Agricultural development plays a role in providing food supply, maintaining food scarcity and maintaining food prices so as not to fluctuate and evenly distribute food, becoming a major problem in each region. Banten Province with regional potentials that have a surplus of food products and a wide area that is adequate has the potential to develop a food distribution center. The aim of a food distribution center is to meet food supply chain chain throughout the region, avoid food scarcity, stabilize food prices and maintain price disparities thus they can be properly met. The role of food hubs is to aggregate, distribute and market food at the farmer, trader level, and to function the role of the BUMD in realizing the operation of the food distribution center. Short food supply chain chains cut costs of crop production in farmers, food distribution costs and transportation costs from farmers to distribution centers. Government policies through relevant local government agencies must be able to move the role of stakeholders in this case farmers, traders, distributors, transportation services in realizing the operation of the food distribution center to provide food procurement services and able to provide welfare levels, especially small farmers as producers in the supply chain of food products.

Abstract

This study addresses a persistent quality problem at PT SSC, a second-tier automotive seat cover manufacturer in Indonesia, where the defect ratebreferred to internally as the Not Good (NG) rate for embossed leather and PVC products remained above the internal 2% target during July–December 2025, causing excess material consumption and reduced profitability. The study aims to identify the main factors causing the NG rate to exceed the threshold and to formulate strategies that reduce it and enhance production efficiency using the DMAIC framework. Drawing on internal production records and semi-structured interviews, the data were analyzed through Pareto analysis, Statistical Process Control (U-Chart), Fishbone analysis, and the Borda Count. The results show that the sewing process is the dominant NG contributor (76% for leather and 67% for PVC) and is statistically out of control, with two prioritized root causes which are the absence of a structured preventive maintenance schedule and the absence of a standardized pre-OJT operator training program. Accordingly, the study proposes an implementation plan combining a Preventive Maintenance Program and a Structured Operator Training Program, reinforced by a real-time monitoring dashboard and a re-evaluation protocol. Grounded in the company’s own data, the projection indicates that the average NG rate can approach the 2% target and profitability can recover to about 85% of the expected margin. The study contributes an evidence-based, implementation-ready improvement roadmap for a sewing-intensive automotive component context that remains underrepresented in the DMAIC literature
