Training on Identification of Business Units of Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDES)

Abstract

Abstract. Village-owned enterprises (BUMDES) strive to utilize village economic, institutional, and human resource potential to improve community welfare. BUMDES often needs to develop due to the mismatch of business units chosen by BUMDES with the potential and capabilities of the village. Therefore, training in identifying potential for business units of BUMDES is necessary for starting an appropriate business. The objective of this community service is to identify potential business units to be developed by BUMDES in Bengkal village, Kranggan District, Temanggung Regency, which recently pioneered BUMDES. There are two activities in this community service, namely Focus Group Discussion in identifying the potential of BUMDES business units and training on BUMDES business unit planning. This activity involved the managers of BUMDES, the Village Head, village officials, community leaders, and village youth. Through FGD and planning training for business units, BUMDES managers and village officials understand the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and challenges faced in developing business units so that they can anticipate weaknesses and challenges with existing strengths and opportunities.
