Previously, the community service team had assisted this partner in increasing its production potential. However, there are still many improvements that can be made. The management conveyed the need for Kaizen (continuous improvement) material. Therefore, community service activities were carried out again in this factory. The method used is training. There were 9 participants who attended, representing the human resource department, finance department, general department, administration department, technical department, production department, inventory department and marketing department. The stages of the activities carried out were factory surveys and interviews with management, training implementation preparation, compiling training materials, filling preliminary questionnaires, training to representatives of each department within the company regarding the concept of continuous improvement and streamlined, and filling evaluation questionnaires. Based on the results of the questionnaire, it was found that the level of understanding of the participants increased after the training.
