Keywords:
Logistics Management, Processed Agricultural, PlatformAbstract
Development of the logistics management support system model for small and medium enterprises in the processed agricultural industry in the eastern region has been started by collecting data, problems, and the needs of agricultural entrepreneurs. The data collected was analyzed to create a support system model. By assessing the logistics management potential, it is found that the logistics activities that need to be improved are customer service, order processing, demand forecasting, inventory management, purchasing, and reverse logistics. A gap analysis was done to develop the logistic support system model according to the actual activities in operating the industry. The developed system consists of four models: supplier management system model, production system management system model, inventory management system model, and customer order management system model. The logistics management support system model can increase the efficiency of logistics management by 21.45 percent.
