<![CDATA[The rapid growth of the logistics sector in Indonesia requires improved operational efficiency, particularly in facility layout management, which plays a crucial role in ensuring smooth material flow. However, the existing layout at KALOG Express Cirebon Prujakan Branch lacks clear zoning separation between inbound, transit, and outbound areas, resulting in mixed activities, handling errors, and inefficient material flow. Therefore, this study aims to redesign the facility layout to enhance operational efficiency and workflow organization. The research applies the Systematic Layout Planning (SLP) method, including activity relationship analysis using Activity Relationship Chart (ARC) and Activity Relationship Diagram (ARD), space requirement analysis, and the development of alternative layouts. The evaluation is conducted using closeness rate and Manhattan distance. The results indicate that layout alternative 2 is the most optimal solution, as it provides clear separation between operational and service zones, improves material flow, and minimizes crossing movement. Based on the results of the Manhattan distance evaluation, layout alternative 2 yielded a total distance weight of 2.222, which is lower than alternative 1 value of 2.405, thus indicating a more efficient material flow configuration. Furthermore, the implementation of Visual Management enhances workflow clarity and reduces operational errors. Thus, the proposed layout improves operational efficiency and creates a more structured and integrated logistics system.]]>
