Transformative innovations igniting coffee supply chain process efficiency

Despite the geographical advantages of coffee plants and the high economic worth of Indonesian coffee goods, particularly in West Java Province, they have not resulted in significant production yields and economic benefits. To ensure their long-term viability, coffee businesses must operate efficiently and employ a variety of strategies. The objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of resource utilization. This study employs a quantitative descriptive research approach, which is based on operational methods. The study presents the analysis in terms of production line efficiency, aiming to enhance the performance and competitiveness of Indonesian coffee providers. The analysis revealed the division of the coffee production process into seven workstations. To address bottlenecks, the suggested solutions include modifying the layout to improve efficiency, optimizing the production flow to minimize distance between workstations and maximize machine utilization time, and optimizing worker positioning. These measures aim to improve production rates, reduce idle time, and minimize balance delay at each workstation and production line. The study proposes conducting additional research to evaluate the factors contributing to variations in the effectiveness of workstations and production lines. This can be achieved by examining the discrepancy between machines or workers and the workload associated with production tasks, the positioning of workstations, and the concurrent utilization of manpower.
