Abstract

Nata de coco is a food product derived from fermented coconut water with the help of the bacterium Acetobacter xylinum. CV ABC is the company that always produces nata de coco and notices the quality of the product. The problem in this study lies in the product standard testing, which often results in deviations from the swelling capacity test and the oversized test, which do not comply with company standards, thereby reducing the quality of Nata de Coco products. This research activity aims to analyze and formulate solutions related to the factors that cause deviations in production results. The method used is quantitative, with a graphical control chart to determine the magnitude of deviations that occur in the swelling capacity test and oversize test. Fishbone diagrams are used to determine the factors causing nata de coco to deviations from company standards. The data is in the form of documentation of the results of the swelling capacity test and the oversized test of 15 data. Data collection used a random sampling technique, which involved taking 400-gram samples of nata de coco from each batch. The results of the 15-day analysis showed that the swelling capacity test did not meet company standards by 7 days, or 47%, and the oversized test did not meet the maximum limit by 4 days, or 27%. Factors that dominate the causes of irregularities are equipment and people. There is a need for machine standardization and employee discipline to maintain the quality of nata de coco.   Keywords: Nata de coco, Oversize, Swelling capacity.

Abstract

Implementing halal product assurance policies requires MSMEs not only to verify the halal status of ingredients but also to manage risks across their supply chains. The complexity of activities such as planning, procurement, production, distribution, and product returns can disrupt operations and affect the quality and sustainability of the business. This study aims to identify supply chain risks in halal product MSMEs and formulate mitigation strategies using the House of Risk (HOR) method. Primary data were obtained through observation, interviews, and questionnaires. The analysis results show 21 risk events and 23 risk agents, with three priority mitigation strategies focused on strengthening internal controls, standardizing operational procedures, and increasing supervision. These findings emphasize the importance of a systematic risk management approach in supporting the stability and competitiveness of halal product MSMEs.Keywords: Chili sauce industry, Halal MSMEs, House of risk, Risk mitigation strategy, Supply chain.
