METODE QUALITY FUNCTION DEPLOYMENT (QFD) UNTUK INFORMASI PENYEMPURNAAN PERAKITAN VARIETAS MELON

ABSTRACT: Problems faced by the development of melon fruit in Indonesia are closely related to the domestic availability of seed.  Although the government research center as well as private seed producers have been able to produce melon seed,  the  largest part of the seed supply is still imported. The objectives  of this study  are  to pursue or to identify ideotype of melon that the domestic consumers is willing to consume and to apply QFD methods (to compose HOQ matrix) in developing domestic melon seed breeding.
The melon fruit  demanded by institutional consumers is the melon fruit without net, and demanded melon fruit by the final consumers is the netted melon fruit. The application of QFD in the planning of the melon varieties is started by composing the HOQ matrix that consisted of the following  steps:  first,  to compose the customers conditions; second, to compose  the technical conditions;  third,  to develop the relationship between  the  customers and technical condition; fourth,  to evaluate the technical  competitiveness; fifth,  to develop  the  technical conditions; sixth,  to develop  the  customers condition, and  finally,  to develop the priority of technical conditions.  The recommendation given to the  melon seed  breeders is to  concentrate  on the technical conditions with the highest absolute and relative weighted values.
Keywords:  QFD Concept, HOQ Matrix, weighted absolute values, weighted relatives values, technical conditions, customer conditions, and competitive evaluation
