Abstract

The objective of this research is to determine the location for the dock and office of naval bases in Padang city of Indonesia. Following this objective, the Regional Government of Padang Mentawai Islands District provides 3 (three) alternative places namely in Semabuk Bay, Siuban Bay, and Semebai Bay for the location of dock and office of Naval Base. For the selection of Mentawai base, the method uses BORDA and PROMETHEE, since the methods can consider alternative evaluation based on factors that are both qualitative and quantitative. Based on the research of BORDA method calculation on 16 naval base selection criteria, it is found that criterion of Sailing Flow maintains the highest weight value that is equal to 10.9% and the lowest criterion weighted value belongs to criterion Political Condition for about 2%. For the results of ranking against the alternative using the Promethee method, the study obtains Semebai Bay as the best location to serve for the location of the base of the Mentawai Naval Base.

Highlights

  • Based on the research of BORDA method calculation on 16 naval base selection criteria, it is found that criterion of Sailing Flow maintains the highest weight value that is equal to 10.9% and the lowest criterion weighted value belongs to criterion Political Condition for about 2%

  • The method used in determining the location of the naval base is based on the results of the team's decision which is the result of qualitative brainstorming and sometimes in the elements of the subjectivity of the people in the team

  • For the other criteria weighs less than 9%, while the criterion that has the lowest weight is the criterion of Political Condition (K14) of 2%

Summary

Introduction

Indonesian navy as the main component of state defense in the sea seeks to always maintain sea security. This area has abundant marine potentials such as fish wealth, marine tourism potential, and the front row of islands that are close to the neighboring country (Nugroho et al, 2019). To select the location of the base, it is necessary to analyze the three alternatives to be selected as the best base location This is very important because the best base is a base that can ensure the implementation of combat support, logistical support, and administrative support to each navy operation unit in the framework of marine control and can ensure continuous operation of Fleet Weapons System Integrated component operation (Ahmadi, 2019). Problems that often occur sometimes tops as decision-makers know the criteria that affect the decision, but cannot let where the criteria are very influential and which are lacking (Reza, & Nugroho, 2020)
