Abstract

Background: Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a crucial role in driving local economic resilience and community empowerment in developing countries. However, traditional agro-based industries often face structural challenges such as weak management systems, limited access to technology, and unstructured financial documentation. The Home Industry Pia Tape Syam in Jember, Indonesia, exemplifies these constraints, operating within a competitive environment that demands digital adaptation and sustainable growth strategies. Integrating a Decision Support System (DSS) offers a transformative opportunity to improve managerial decision-making and enhance enterprise performance. Aims: This study aims to analyze the business feasibility and development strategies of Pia Tape Syam using the DSS-UMKM version 2.0 model to support sustainable and data-driven decision-making for rural agro-industries. Methods: A mixed-method approach combining qualitative and quantitative analyses was employed. Primary data were collected through structured interviews and financial documentation, followed by DSS-based computation assessing both non-financial (legal, marketing, production, management, and environmental) and financial aspects, including NPV, IRR, BCR, and Payback Period. Results: Findings reveal that environmental and production aspects achieved high feasibility scores, while legal and marketing factors require significant improvement. Financially, the enterprise demonstrated strong viability with an NPV of IDR 246,807,083.26, IRR of 48.72%, and a BCR of 1.75. These results confirm that the DSS approach effectively enhances strategic evaluation and investment decision accuracy in small-scale food industries. Conclusion: The study concludes that integrating DSS into rural MSMEs can significantly strengthen operational efficiency, financial sustainability, and adaptive capacity in a dynamic market environment. Beyond its economic benefits, DSS implementation fosters data literacy and managerial accountability, bridging the gap between traditional entrepreneurship and digital transformation. Hence, the DSS framework serves as a scalable model for empowering local food industries and advancing inclusive rural development across emerging economies.

Abstract

Background: Sustainable coffee entrepreneurship in rural Indonesia faces persistent challenges in operational efficiency, marketing, and financial management. Bedhag Kopi, a micro-enterprise producing Robusta ground coffee in Jember Regency, exemplifies these constraints within the local agroindustry context. Despite having complete business legality, its managerial structure, production capacity, and marketing strategies remain suboptimal. The growing emphasis on digital transformation and data-driven decision-making offers potential solutions to strengthen business feasibility and sustainability for small coffee producers. Aims: This study aims to evaluate the business feasibility and development potential of Bedhag Kopi by integrating a Decision Support System (DSS) framework. The research focuses on assessing multi-aspect feasibility—including legal, production, marketing, human resources, environmental, and financial dimensions—to identify strategic directions for sustainable business growth. Methods: A descriptive quantitative approach was employed using DSS version 2.0 to analyze the enterprise’s feasibility indicators. Data were collected through structured interviews and financial records, and processed using expert-based scoring analysis to generate performance classifications and development recommendations across business aspects. Results: Findings show that Bedhag Kopi is financially feasible, with a Benefit-Cost Ratio of 1.80, Payback Period of 6.01 years, Net Present Value of IDR 1.48 billion, and Internal Rate of Return of 52.84%. Non-financial aspects—including production, marketing, and human resources—demonstrate moderate feasibility requiring targeted improvement interventions. Conclusion: Integrating DSS into rural coffee entrepreneurship enables systematic evaluation and informed strategic planning. The approach enhances managerial decision-making, financial viability, and environmental sustainability, offering a replicable digital model for small-scale agribusinesses in emerging economies pursuing sustainable competitiveness.

Abstract

Background: Small-scale food enterprises in Indonesia often rely on inherited production habits rather than structured vocational knowledge, causing inconsistent quality and limited competitiveness. The tofu industry, particularly in rural areas such as Situbondo, faces challenges related to worker discipline, hygiene culture, and process control. These issues highlight the need for strengthening vocational competencies and embedding a quality-oriented work culture within microenterprises. Aims: This study aims to examine how the introduction of a structured improvement framework can enhance workforce behavior, production discipline, and overall quality culture in a rural tofu-processing enterprise. The article reframes technical findings into insights that support vocational learning, organizational development, and local MSME empowerment. Methods: Using a case-study design, the research applies the Six Sigma DMAIC framework to analyze quality issues at UD Barokah. Data were collected through direct observation, interviews with workers and owners, and defect recording across 20 sampling periods. The study investigates four key defect categories—aroma, taste, color, and size—and identifies behavioral, environmental, and procedural factors that influence production performance. Results: Findings show a high defect rate represented by a DPMO value of 269,000 and a sigma level of 2.11, indicating unstable processes and weak adherence to vocational standards of hygiene, measurement accuracy, and equipment maintenance. Dominant defects include discoloration and contamination, which stem from inconsistent worker practices, inadequate sanitation routines, and the absence of standardized procedures. Conclusion: The study demonstrates that technical improvement tools can function as pedagogical instruments that reshape work behavior, reinforce vocational competencies, and cultivate a sustainable quality culture in micro-scale food enterprises. Beyond reducing product defects, the Six Sigma approach encourages structured learning, strengthens accountability among workers, and promotes a culture of cleanliness and precision that is essential for rural MSME development. Embedding such quality-oriented practices is crucial for empowering local enterprises, enhancing consumer trust, and supporting broader educational and socio-economic outcomes in vocational ecosystems.
