Sustainable industrial systems through strategic laboratory equipment industry

Abstract

This paper conveys the theoretical perspectives of sustainable industrial systems through Strategic Laboratory Equipment Industry, within scope of PT. Promedika Sejahtera (PPS). PT Promedika Sejahtera is a company engaged in the laboratory equipment industry, that need its strategic touch on its Strategic Laboratory Equipment. Products sold by the company are Oxygen, Medical Equipment, Ultraviolet System, Activated Carbon Filter, Pempers, and Underpad. Products that exist in the company are not in their own production in the production from abroad. PT Promedika Sejahtera merely sell the laboratory equipment. Yet, the company has various types of consumers namely hospitals, hospital cooperatives, pharmacies, factories, and water equipment RO shops. In this paper, strategic laboratory equipment industry refers specifically to inventory within the supply chain management perspectives. This paper constitutes collaboration with other papers on Economic Order Quantity (EOQ), Re-Order Point (ROP), and Safety Stock (SS), that convolutes Forecasting, ABC Analysis, and Partial Least Square (PLS). Yet, this paper refers to its focus merely on Forecasting, Demand Pattern, Exponential Smoothing and EOQ. As part of conclusion, this paper conveys several highlighted remarks. Those remarks refer to ABC Analysis. The grouping of goods using ABC Analysis Method is divided into three groups: A with 80% priority, group B with 20% priority and group C with 10% priority. The number of goods in group A is 12 items, group B 18 item type and group C are 30 items of goods. Forecasting demand required by the Company for 2018 based on priority group A can be done using the Double Exponential Smoothing (Holt’s) Method because the pattern pattern possessed from the previous year’s sales data has no seasonal but has a random trend. The results of these calculations can be seen from the table of existing research results. Ultimately, Future research is deemed indispensable within novelty purpose for the industrial system sustainability within Strategic Laboratory Equipment Industry.
