The raw material inventory management aims to assist business actors in determining the
optimal quantity of raw materials ordered so as to reduce expensive inventory expenditures. To
prevent running out of coffee beans, UKM SL places monthly orders, but the frequency of
purchases every month causes inventory costs to be high or inefficient. The purpose of the study
was to describe the inventory control of coffee raw materials applied using the UKM SL policy,
to analyze the coffee raw material inventory control that was implemented using the EOQ
method, and compare the control of coffee raw material supplies using the UKM SL policy with
the EOQ method. The research approach used is descriptive quantitative with the Economic
Order Quantity (EOQ) analysis method. For this study, data from 2018 are used because the
EOQ method requires data on the quantity of raw material requirements that are relatively stable
in one period to facilitate EOQ calculations in the following period so that it is more optimal and
stable in controlling raw material supplies.
UKM SL officially became UKM in 2010 and has had 5 market stalls since then. Mobile
sales and market stalls are used for UKM SL marketing. Using the UKM SL approach, coffee
bean inventory control is done by ordering an average of 1,240 kg of coffee beans once every
month. Before applying the EOQ approach, the total cost of the inventory was IDR 9,175,360.
Using the Economic Order Quantity approach, coffee bean inventory control is done by ordering
2,482 kg of coffee beans every two months. After applying the EOQ approach, the total cost of
the inventory is IDR 6,115,358. When there are still 48 kg of coffee beans in the warehouse,
UKM SL must place another order (ROP). These findings demonstrate that the EOQ method is
more efficient than the approach used for UKM SL, as demonstrated by the method's ability to
reduce the cost of coffee bean inventory in UKM SL by IDR 3,060,002.
