Analysis and Design of Internal Traceability System for Rice Processing Industry

Abstract

Data management is needed to monitor production so business processes run according to operational standards. The rice processing industry’s data management system is still manually, causing ineffectiveness. Therefore, an information system that captures and records all business activities is needed. This study aimed to develop an internal traceability system design that is used to document all material flows during rice processing. Based on the results obtained, the business process in the rice processing industry consists of three main activities: receiving raw materials, processing products, and warehousing the final product. The traceability system requirements modeling is done by compiling an information system architecture, analyzing data and information requirements using UML (Unified Modeling Language) object-oriented class diagrams, and developing a user interface (UI) design for the system. The result of this study is a system design that can ensure that the input (a receipt of raw materials), process, and output (final product) are well connected to be used for monitoring rice processing. Furthermore, the application of the traceability system can have a positive impact on the industry, government, and consumers.
