RM.id Rakyat Merdeka – Dodol D’Tungku MSME in Bojonggede District, Bogor Regency, has begun strengthening its production process towards more environmentally friendly business practices through the University Trisakti Community Service (Community Service) program. This activity combines an Internet of Things (IoT)-based emission filtration system, improved work safety, Green Branding, and Sustainable Business Model Canvas (SBMC) to encourage green industrial transformation at the MSME level. A total of 14 members of Dodol D’Tungku MSME participated in a series of activities designed to integrate technological innovation with strengthening business capacity and sustainable business strategies. This Community Service program was implemented by the University Trisakti team led by Ika Wahyu Utami, with team members Ida Busnetty, Wawan Kurniawan, Nur Akny, Clarissa Inneke, Navilah Hilyatania, Reifan Putra, Meily Cristina and Alifta Agdiana. The team collaboratively assisted partners starting from identifying production conditions, implementing IoT-based emission filtration and monitoring technology, occupational safety and health (K3) training, to strengthening Green Branding and sustainable business strategies through SBMC. The series of activities began on June 5, 2026, through Socialization, Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), and Baseline Assessments. This activity was the initial stage for socializing the program, identifying production process conditions, partner needs, environmental and occupational safety issues, and initial conditions that became the basis for implementing technological innovations. The next stage was carried out on June 19, 2026, through IoT-Based Emission Filtration System Operational Training and Operational K3. Participants gained an understanding of the function and operation of the filtration system, maintenance procedures, and safety aspects that need to be considered in production activities. After participants gained an understanding of technology and occupational safety, the IoT-Based Emission Filtration System was installed on June 27, 2026, at the Dodol D’Tungku production site. The system is intended to help control smoke generated from the combustion process while supporting monitoring of the filtration system’s condition through sensors. The implementation phase was then continued with Performance Monitoring I on July 2, 2026, through an initial evaluation of the sensor-based emission filtration system. Monitoring was conducted to evaluate the initial condition of system performance and ensure that the devices and sensors could be used as intended. Green Transformation Doesn’t Stop at Technology The transformation carried out not only targeted the production process but also expanded to strengthening business identity. On July 16, 2026, the University Trisakti team conducted Green Branding Training for Dodol D’Tungku MSMEs. Through this activity, partners were assisted in building a business identity that was able to communicate environmentally friendly values. Green Branding was aimed at ensuring that sustainable practices that were implemented in the production process could be translated into added value and product identity that could be communicated to consumers. With this approach, environmentally friendly practices not only became changes in the production process but also became part of how MSMEs built the image and value of their products in the market. Strengthening the business aspect was then continued through the Sustainable Business Strategy Training: Sustainable Business Model Canvas MSME Dodol D’Tungku on July 24, 2026. In the training, partners were invited to map business models by considering three dimensions of sustainability, namely economic, social, and environmental. The SBMC approach helps partners see how the application of technology, more environmentally friendly production practices, and Green Branding can be integrated into business development strategies. The three approaches are designed as a whole. The IoT-based emission filtration system is part of the production process transformation, Green Branding strengthens product value and communication, while SBMC helps integrate economic, social, and environmental aspects into the MSME business model. Continuous Monitoring to Maintain Technology Performance To ensure the technology continues to function after implementation, the team again conducted Performance Monitoring II on August 8, 2026. This activity focused on evaluating filtration performance and sensor stability after the system was used during the operational period. This monitoring is part of ongoing mentoring so that technology implementation does not stop at the installation stage, but is continuously evaluated and maintained according to the needs of the partner’s production process. The Head of the University Trisakti Community Service Team, Ika Wahyu Utami, said that the series of activities were designed so that the application of technology goes hand in hand with strengthening the capacity and business strategies of partners. She wants this empowerment not to stop at providing or installing equipment. “Partners need to understand how technology is used and maintained, how more environmentally friendly practices can become part of the business identity, and how sustainability aspects can be incorporated into the business model,” she said, as stated in a statement received by the editors, Wednesday (12/8/2026). Through this series of activities, the Dodol D’Tungku MSME is expected to be more adaptive to technology, have a production process that pays more attention to environmental and occupational safety aspects, and be able to develop an identity and business model that is oriented towards sustainability. In line with the Sustainable Development Targets This series of empowerment is in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially SDG 3 (Healthy and Prosperous Life) through efforts to improve the health and safety of workers and residents around the production environment by controlling exposure to pollutants. The implementation and digitization of an IoT-based emission filtration system also supports SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure) through the development of technological innovations aimed at strengthening the independence and competitiveness of MSMEs. Meanwhile, efforts to promote a more environmentally friendly dodol production process and control emissions at the household level align with SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production). Supported by BIMA Community Service Funding 2026 The implementation of the activity received funding from the Directorate of Research and Community Service (DPPM), Directorate General of Research and Development, Ministry of Higher Education, Science, and Technology through the BIMA Community Service Grant Program (Community Service) for the 2026 Fiscal Year, based on the Contract between DPPM Kemendiktisaintek and LLDIKTI Region III Number 206/C3/DT.05.00/PM/2026 dated April 13, 2026, LLDIKTI Region III Contract with University Trisakti Number 0708/LL3/DT.06.01/2026 dated April 27, 2026, and the Contract between University Trisakti and Community Service Grant Recipients Number 787/A/LPPM/USAKTI/IV/2026 dated April 28, 2026. Through this funding and mentoring, University Trisakti encourages Dodol MSMEs D’Tungku aims to grow not only in terms of productivity and competitiveness, but also through shifts towards greener and more sustainable production processes and business models. This approach is expected to become a model for empowering MSMEs that integrates technology, the environment, brand building, and sustainable business strategies.
