Analisis Optimalisasi Distribusi Liquefied Petroleum Gas 3 Kg untuk Meningkatkan Efisiensi Operasional PT Gaharu Digdaya Bahari

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the optimization of 3 kg LPG distribution in improving operational efficiency at PT Gaharu Digdaya Bahari through inventory management, distribution digitalization, and supply chain integration. The research employs a qualitative approach using a field study method. Data were collected through direct observation, documentation, and active involvement in operational activities, and analyzed using thematic analysis consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate that effective inventory management helps maintain stock stability and reduce shortages, while distribution digitalization enhances transparency and real-time data accuracy. In addition, supply chain optimization and coordination among distribution actors improve delivery processes and reduce operational costs, although some challenges remain in the monitoring system. In conclusion, the integration of inventory management, digital technology, and supply chain coordination plays a crucial role in improving operational efficiency, but it requires stronger monitoring systems to ensure accurate, targeted, and sustainable LPG distribution.
