Abstract-Controlling is a continuously process. The scope of monitoring includes everything, especially for something that is inherently dangerous, such as commercial explosives. This study aimed to analyze the supervision of commercial explosives in Indonesia and developed the concept of supervision. This study is an action research using the app Soft Systems Methodology (SSM). Data were collected by in-depth interviews, informal discussions, and focus group discussion. This research has limitation about research period that did until 2016. The results showed that in exercising oversight of commercial explosives still have some obstacles such as low capacity of inspectors, lack of coordination, and a lack of effective oversight mechanisms. Changes in the Supervisory Team status become Supervisory Board proposed as one solution to optimize the supervision of commercial explosives. In the short term, optimization of supervision of commercial explosives can be realized by increasing the capacity of inspectors and coordination among relevant agencies. This research has contribution to develop controlling theory at every level of management.
