Abstract

This study examines the productivity of the Convection industry within Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in Lombok, focusing on enhancing efficiency and alignment with customer demand. Using a Flow Process Chart (FPC) and visualizing the layout of work facilities, data collected in September 2023 revealed three major issues: underutilized human resources, poorly arranged work tools, and delays in specific activities. To address these problems, the study proposes adding 1 to 4 workers to ensure all tools are used effectively, rearranging tools to improve workflow, and decentralizing breakdown activities to reduce bottlenecks. These improvements are practical and tailored to the specific conditions of the SMEs analyzed. By optimizing the alignment between the workforce and available tools, reorganizing the facility layout, and decentralizing key tasks, SMEs can achieve notable productivity gains. The findings provide actionable insights for improving production processes in other SMEs as well, contributing to better overall performance and competitiveness in the market.
