Abstract

Small, and Medium Enterprises (UMKM) in the dry Eid cake production sector face primary challenges related to supply chain transparency and product quality assurance. The lack of organized record-keeping systems makes product traceability difficult to implement, especially when issues arise such as customer complaints or product recalls. This research aims to identify and analyze information system needs for implementing digital traceability in these SMEs. The approach used is qualitative, with system needs analysis techniques based on the early phases of SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle), including direct field observations, semi-structured interviews, and process document reviews. Findings show that the AS-IS condition in most SMEs is characterized by the absence of digital documentation, lack of product batch codes, and no backward tracing mechanisms. From these gaps, this research develops a TO-BE condition using affordable technologies such as Google Form, QR Code, and Google Sheets as the basis for a simple traceability system suitable for SMEs. Comparison between conditions before and after implementation indicates significant improvements in accountability, food safety, and consumer trust. This research is expected to provide practical benefits for SME actors while enriching food information system studies in Indonesia.
