Perancangan sIstem informasi manufaktur pada proses penanganan bahan baku di PT. “X” dalam menciptakan kinerja unggul

Manufacturing Information System is a subsystem of Computer Based Information System (CBIS) in providing information, which is closely related to the process of production. In the process of production, the process of handling raw materials is a very important part because this process highly influences the flow of the process of production. The problems encountered by 'X' company during production activities are problems related to the raw materials, in which the raw materials used in production does not have an exact quality, quantity and time of delivery. This has often disturbed the process of production causing the customer needs to be unmet satisfactorily. The inefficient and ineffective process of handling the raw materials triggers the possibility of encountering this type of problem. The old Manufacturing Information System applied by the company is incapable of supporting the process of handling raw materials efficiently and effectively. Designing a new Manufacturing Information System is an effort to improve the former Manufacturing Information System, to support the process of handling raw materials efficiently and effectively. The new Manufacturing Information System model consists of input subsystem, database, and output subsystem, which are integrated in character. The new system is capable of providing the company with information to create superior performance. Hence this new system can help the company in solving problems related to the accuracy of quality, quantity and the punctuality of delivery time of raw materials. A superior performance in the process of handling raw materials can effectively support the company in implementing differentiation strategy and achieving competitive advantage
