In the last 5 years, the sales of the military aircraft of PTDI has been stagnant. The dependency of PTDI to the military customers’ budget makes the business more volatile and uncertain since it is strongly influenced by political situation and economy changes.To compensate the demand uncertainty from the military market, PTDI has to start expanding its aircraft business to the commercial market. Therefore the N219 aircraft was initiated and PTDI started its development in 2014 and accepted its Type Certification in December 2020. However, despite all the marketing effort since 2018 and high potential market, N219 has not been able to win any contracts from the potential customers in domestic market.This research is using internal and external analysis approach to understand the situation that has been faced by N219. AHP method is also used to understand the criteria and sub criteria that are prioritized by the airlines potential customers to make a decision on buying a new aircraft. The analysis then formulated into SWOT analysis. From it, the author can identify the root causes of N219 business issue.The current Marketing Strategy, Marketing Tactics and also Man power are the main root causes that was identified from the analysis the author had conducted. Therefore, there are several things in those areas that require major changes and are also very crucial, namely Target Market, Positioning, 4P and People plus the Organization.The target market of N219 has to be adjusted with the capability of N219-100. While the new positioning needs to highlight the N219 benefits aside from its product performance. The Marketing Mix stage has to start from strengthening the man power of N219 marketing and sales department and as the consequences, the organization of PTDI should be changed. For the Product aspect, N219 has to offer other value added package to the potential customers, both airlines and local government, such as benefits non-product, namely excellent after sales service, financing facility, long-term pioneer routes flight contract, operation package, human resource development and multiyear budget package. As for the Price aspect, N219 should offer the competitive number for the launching price, while still giving the value added package to the potential customer. Meanwhile, for the Place aspect, PTDI has to consider the expansion of N219 service facility in several areas in Indonesia to provide faster response for the customers. Other than that N219 has to optimize the Digital Platform to increase its accessibility. Last but not least, the Promotion aspect, with an integrated marketing communication approach that is maximizing every marketing channel including Events and Experience, Public Relation and Publicity, Direct Marketing, Interactive Marketing and Personal Selling.The implementation of the Marketing Mix is the responsibility of all parties involved in the company.

PROPOSED IMPROVEMENT FOR DISASTER MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK IN CONDUCTING EMERGENCY RESPONSE PROJECT IN INDONESIA (CASE STUDY OF WAHANA VISI INDONESIA)
Indonesia is located at the meeting points of three tectonic plates, which leads to higher risk of natural disaster occurrence. Based on data from National Disaster Mitigation Academy (BNPB), the number of natural disasters increased significantly from 2010 until 2020. Natural disaster causes casualties, injured people, damaged infrastructures, and will affect a lot of lives significantly. This is where emergency response takes the most important role to restore and recover the lives of victims. Emergency response is a part of disaster management process, which involves preparation and mitigation phase to make the process effective and efficient. WVI is a non-profit organization, which also perform emergency response in many natural disasters in Indonesia since 1998. WVI’s emergency response for Lombok earthquake in July – August 2018 (Lombok Earthquake Emergency Response project) is selected as subject of this research. WVI performed several programs in LEER project such as distribution of non-food item (NFI) program and water sanitation and hygiene (WASH) program. Based on interview with the first team leader of LEER project, there was delay in procuring and delivering the aid materials in the emergency program. The team leader mentioned that based on his experience, the delay reached until 2 weeks for the procurement for WASH program. After analyzing the root cause using Fish Bone Diagram, the delay was caused by several factors, but mainly due to lack of man competency and lack of procurement system. The lack of man competency was about the staff assigned in disaster area which didn’t have the logistic and warehousing competencies and experience. As for the lack of procurement system, although WVI already has vendor database, but it still hasn’t had the vendor category and area mapping, which enable staff in disaster area to quickly procure the aid material needed. In the case of LEER, WVI had to procure materials from Jakarta and Surabaya due to local vendors evacuated themselves, which finally caused more time and cost to be spent.As the solution for the root causes, the researcher proposed the creation of WVI Emergency Supplier Network (ESN) to address the lack of procurement system, which will enable WVI to have broad coverage of vendor and material alternatives from each province in Indonesia. ESN will help WVI to quickly locate the nearest vendor to the disaster area, and finally help the procurement process to be quicker. For the lack of man competency, the creation of Emergency Response Handbook is proposed as solution, since it has a comprehensive and easy-to-understand guidelines for emergency response, especially the logistic and warehousing function. Both proposed solutions are hoped to strengthen the current preparedness of WVI disaster management, and finally produced better and faster emergency response.
