In Indonesia, many space saving products are introduced by foreign companies such as IKEA and Informa. Function.id is one of the small businesses that has a goal to fulfill the needs of space saving product in Indonesia. With some limitations, Function.id does the production process using the maakloon / outsource method. However, because the concepts applied are not standardized and well-structured, instead it creates a problem in the production process. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to identify the problem and to standardize the maakloon production process of Function.id to be implemented in Function ART Indonesia.
