The Malang City Government, through the Cooperatives, Industry and\nTrade Office (Diskopindag), is encouraging the strengthening of\nproduction governance through Technical Guidance on the Implementation\nof Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) for managers and management of\nsmall to medium-scale cigarette factories. The measure aims to ensure\nproduction processes run in accordance with regulations, particularly in\nterms of quality, cleanliness, safety, and process order.<\/p>\n
Head of Diskopindag Malang City, Eko Sri Yuliadi, said the\nimplementation of GMP is an important part of building consistent\nproduction processes while maintaining product quality.<\/p>\n
\u201cThrough this technical guidance, we encourage industry players to be\nable to apply sanitation standards, equipment control, and integrated\nSOP documentation. This is important for maintaining product quality\nwhile avoiding the risk of regulatory sanctions,\u201d Eko said.<\/p>\n
The implementation of GMP builds work habits that need to be carried\nout consistently, starting from maintaining facility cleanliness and\nsanitation, controlling equipment, managing production processes, to\ndocumenting operational procedures. When all these stages run well,\nproduct quality becomes more measurable and risks in the production\nprocess can be reduced.<\/p>\n
At the same time, orderly governance helps industry players comply\nwith applicable regulations and build more professional business\nprocesses.<\/p>\n
Strengthening GMP is also related to other aspects of industrial\ngovernance, including data reporting through the National Industrial\nInformation System (SIINas) and the utilisation of the Tobacco Products\nExcise Revenue Sharing Fund (DBHCHT). With an increasingly orderly\nindustry, the data produced is expected to be more accurate and can\nsupport more precise guidance.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are targeting at least 50 tobacco products industry factories in\nMalang City to have a strong commitment to consistently implementing 10\nGMP principles. If industrial governance becomes more orderly and\nintegrated, the competitiveness of local cigarettes in the national\nmarket will certainly increase,\u201d Eko said.<\/p>\n
Through the technical guidance, tobacco products industry players not\nonly gain an understanding of GMP principles, but also practical\nmaterial and the preparation of follow-up plans that can be applied in\ntheir respective production facilities.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/malang-city-government-holds-technical-guidance-on-gmp-implementation-to-strengthen-cigarette-industry-1787410552", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
