Analysis of Ready Mix Raw Material Supplier Selection at PT. Remicon Widyaprima Using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP)

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the selection of raw material suppliers for ready-mix production, particularly cement, at PT. Remicon Widyaprima using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. Frequent delays in cement delivery have disrupted production activities, making a systematic evaluation essential to determine the most suitable supplier. Data were collected through pairwise comparison questionnaires distributed to seven internal experts and analyzed using AHP to calculate the priority weights for each criterion. The evaluation criteria include product quality, flexibility, cost, delivery punctuality, and responsiveness. The results indicate that product quality is the most dominant criterion, followed by flexibility and cost. PT. Semen Merah Putih was identified as the best supplier, having the highest priority weight. The Consistency Ratio (CR) value of 0.0650 confirms that the expert assessments are consistent. These findings demonstrate that the AHP method is effective in objectively evaluating and selecting suppliers based on predefined criteria.
