ABSTRACT
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze the production
management of PT PAL Indonesia (Persero) 's LPD vessel using PESTLE
analysis. Study Design: This research is descriptive and uses a
qualitative approach. Methodology: This study uses a qualitative
analysis approach aimed at PT PAL Indonesia (Persero) 's LPD ship
production management. Place and Duration of Study: This research

INTRODUCTION
Indonesia is an archipelago country with vast oceans with the second-longest coastline in the world.
Based on the measurement of the Navy and Hydrographic and Oceanographic Centre of the Navy
that the area of Indonesian Sovereignty Region, which consists of inland waters and archipelago
waters of 3,110.00 km2, territorial sea 290,000 km2. Sovereign territory, consisting of an Additional
Zone of 270,000 km2, Exclusive Economic Zone of 3,000,000 km2, Continental Landing of 2,800,000
km2. The area of Indonesian waters is 6,400,000 km2, the area of NKRI (land + waters) is 8,300,000
km2. The length of the coastline is 108,000 km.
Indonesia is located between two continents, Asia and Australia; and is located between two oceans,
the Pacific and the Indian Ocean. Since ancient times, the location of the archipelago has been a
crossroads of crossing sea lanes that connect the eastern and western continents. If these maritime
zones are bordered by neighboring countries, the outer limits shall be set by agreement with the
relevant neighboring countries, by international law, in particular UNCLOS 1982.

Now, based on the analysis of experts, it is estimated that around 90% of global trade is transported
by sea, where 40% of it passes through Indonesian waters. 40% is a fantastic number. This means
that Indonesia's position will always be a strategic place in the world trade map at any time. When
viewed from a geostrategic aspect, Indonesia is a very important country for the international
community, because Indonesia is located in a very strategic position between two continents and
two oceans which have been the routes of international shipping traffic since ancient times as Sea
Lanes of Communication (SLOC) and Sea. World Lines of Trade (SLOT).
Indonesia also has three Indonesian Archipelagic Sea Lanes (ALKI) that connect international
waters in the North and South as a form of responsibility for the recognition of Indonesia as an

archipelagic country. With such a position, Indonesia's existence is very important for other
countries, especially the United States (US) and Japan, whose energy supplies from the Middle East
through Indonesian waters in the Malacca Strait, Singapore Strait, Natuna Sea, and Sulawesi waters.

The sea can be a separation, but it can also be a link with good connectivity. Connectivity, in this
case, is institutional connectivity (soft infrastructure), physical connectivity (hard infrastructure),
and individual connectivity (people-to-people connectivity). Meanwhile, at the national level, the
national logistics system is one of the components of national connectivity that has a strategic role
in harmonizing the progress of the economic sector and between regions for the realization of
economic growth. As evidence that Indonesia has a very strategic role, it can be seen from the world
navigation traffic and Southeast Asia (Figure 3).
Julian S. Corbett in his Principles of Maritime Strategy (2012: 63) states that "objects of naval
warfare must always directly or indirectly secure the command of the sea (control of the sea) or
prevent the enemy from securing it." In securing the sea, the navy is very dependent on the Main
Weapon System, the main tool of the weapon system, especially warships. The Indonesian Navy in
carrying out its duties relies on the strength of the SSAT (Integrated Fleet Weapon System) which
includes: Republic of Indonesia Warship, Aircraft, Marines, and Bases. Therefore, the four
components of the SSAT are always maintained for combat readiness.
