<![CDATA[One of Indonesia's commodities which have great potential but so far little attention is the banana (Musa sp.). Until now, business people in the banana supply chain are still independent of each other in order to determine the number of decisions and fulfillment of orders. Banana business also has a factor of uncertainty in the face of supply and demand. In addition, it has the characteristics of the selling perishable so severely constrained by the age of the banana itself. To improve the performance of the banana supply chain, innovation is needed through better coordination between businesses using the approach to supply chain management. In this study the development of models and experiments on several scenarios using the simulation system to evaluate the influence of dynamic coordination of the banana supply chain performance. The size of the evaluated performance in the experiment is sales revenue, oversupply, lost sales, and availability. From the experimental results can be concluded that the combination of coordination on the side of the upstream and downstream supply chain produces the best performance in terms of sales revenue. Experiments also showed that the coordination within the supply chain to improve supply chain performance in total, although there are always one or several business people who experience a decrease in performance of the same size. In addition, also note that the government plans to conduct an increasing number of supply from the upstream side will bring greater benefits when it is realized with the condition where there is coordination within the supply chain.]]>
