An epidemic of global concern. Wuhan, a city in Hubei Province, China, suddenly became famous throughout. China is the first country to report this virus. December 8, 2019, the first confirmed case of Covid-19 in China based on the 37 WHO says on the Covid-19 situation. WHO declared a global public health emergency on January 30, 2020. On February 11, 2020, WHO announced that this virus would be known as Covid-19. On January 13, 2020, Thailand became the first country outside China to report a Covid-19 case. Meanwhile, France became the first country in Europe to report three cases of Covid- 19 on January 25, 2020. On March 2, 2020, President Joko Widodo officially announced the first case of Covid-19 in Indonesia. Two Indonesian citizens who tested positive for the virus made contact with Japanese citizens who came to Indonesia. For the first time, on March 11, 2020, an Indonesian citizen died from Covid-19. From then on, Covid-19 cases continued to increase in Indonesia. The Covid-19 pandemic has significantly impacted all aspects and sectors of life for the world community, including Indonesia. Especially for the economic sector, Covid-19 has exacerbated economic disparities that existed before the existence of Covid-19. Finance Minister Sri Mulyani Indrawati said there were three significant impacts of this pandemic on the economy. First, the effect on household consumption or purchasing power fell deeply, even though 60 per cent supported the economy. Second, due to Covid-19, investment has also weakened due to uncertainty. Third, Indonesian exports have experienced a decline wherein several destination countries have stopped. This is because the entire world is experiencing an economic downturn (www.liputan6.com, 2020) mailto:02rahmadani@gmail.com1 mailto:02rahmadani@gmail.com https://doi.org/10.33369/j.akuntansi.11.3.197-208 A ST RAT EGY T O P ROMOT E T HE COMP ETIT I VENESS OF MI CRO, SMALL AND MEDI UM ENTERP RI SES ( MSME) DURI NG T HE CONDITION OF COVI D 19 P ANDEMI CS Rahmadani and Jefriyanto 198 MSME has intensely felt the Covid-19 outbreak which has an impact on the economic sector. The Covid-19 pandemic has put MSME in a stagnant position, and many have even ended up going bankrupt (Arianto, 2020). Where the economic business most affected by the Covid-19 pandemic is MSME (Rosita, 2020). MSME based on (UU No 20, 2008) on Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME), Micro Enterprises are productive businesses owned by individuals and business entities. Furthermore, Small Business is a compelling economic business that stands alone which is carried out by individuals or business entities that are not subsidiaries or not a branch of a company that is owned, controlled, or is a part, either directly or indirectly, of a Medium or Large Business. Meanwhile, Medium Enterprises are productive economic enterprises that are independent, carried out by individuals or business entities that are not subsidiaries or branches of companies owned, controlled, or are part of, either directly or indirectly, of Small or Large Enterprises. The creative industry is an industry that focuses on creating goods and services by relying on the creativity, skills and talents of individuals to create prosperity and employment (Departemen Perdagangan RI, 2008). There are 18 creative industry subsectors developed in Indonesia, namely animation, architecture, design, photography, music, crafts, culinary, fashion, research and development, publishing, film, advertising, interactive games, performing arts, fine arts, information technology, television and radio, video (Suparmin, Roniwijaya, Priyanto, & Setiadi, 2017). MSME have a very strategic role in the Indonesian economy. One category of business scale structurally occupies a significant position. Since the era of the monetary crisis, which was marked by the devaluation of the rupiah, decreasing purchasing power, uncontrolled inflation and increasing production costs, MSME has been at the forefront of efforts to move the real sector. In the midst of the turmoil, most MSME were able to show extraordinary performance (Karya Bersama Fakultas Ekonomi Universitas Surabaya dan Forum Daerah UKM Jawa Timur, 2007). Data from the Indonesian Ministry of Cooperatives and Small and Medium Enterprises in 2019 shows that the number of MSME business units is 99.9% of the total business units or 65.4 million units. MSME absorb 96.92% of full employment, 89.04% of which are in the micro sector, 4.81% in the small business sector, 3.07% in the medium business sector and contribute 60% to gross domestic product (Kemenkop dan UMKM, 2019). Strategies are needed to increase the competitiveness of MSME during the Covid-19 pandemic. In terms of improving their performance, MSME actors are required to have qualified knowledge management and absorptive capacity. Product absorption, availability of raw materials, and distribution processes have been affected by the Covid-19 outbreak in MSME. The conditions of the Covid- 19 pandemic that currently make MSME need special attention to increasing the competitiveness (Fitriyani, Sudiyarti, & Fietroh, 2020). Strategy in competition is obtained through developing internal and external conditions (Hartanto & Kholil, 2018) in line with what has been stated by Istianingsih, Salim, & Defit (2019) that the sustainability of MSME can be built by paying attention to internal and external factors. In previous research related to strategies to increase the competitiveness of MSME, there were different results. It is necessary to develop the right strategy (Diniaty et al., 2019). Research conducted (Kurdi & Firmansyah, 2020) (Rahmadani et al., 2021) reveals that in increasing competitiveness, the strategy to build good closeness to customers and increase product innovation. Strategy in increasing competitiveness is a strategy growth by utilizing all the strengths of MSME ((A. Ariani & Utomo, 2017); (Alyas & Rakib, 2017). In contrast, (Narto & HM, 2020) state the alternative strategy is to maintain prices and increase product quality, a difference to (Mahmudi & Sodiq, 2020) states that increasing the competitiveness of MSME with lower prices but still product quality. Problems in the development of MSME are human Jurnal Akuntansi ISSN 2303-0356 Vol. 11, No.3, October 2021 Hal. 197 - 208 199 resources (Meliala, Matondang, & Sari, 2014); (Andriani, Astari, Budhiarti, & Zachary, 2017). The analysis results were carried out using the IFAS-EFAS matrix, SWOT matrix and Cartesian SWOT diagram. The strategy obtained is quadrant IV strategy, namely the ST strategy, which is a strategy to utilize strength factors to overcome threat factors. Its implementation is through improving product quality (Anggraeni, Sunarti, & Mawardi, 2017). The phenomena, theories, and research gaps are disclosed above. The researchers are interested in researching Strategies for Increasing the Competitiveness of Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) in the Covid-19 Pandemic Condition. Case Study on MSME Creative Industry Kp Pelintahan, Sei Rampah District, so that it is known what the MSME Creative Industry Kp should implement the best strategy. Pelintahan is amid the Covid-19 pandemic. RESEARCH METHODS This research is a qualitative descriptive study. The research method, which is based on postpositivism philosophy, is used to examine the condition of natural objects, where the researcher is the critical instrument (Sugiyono, 2012). This research provides a systematic overview of scientific information related to strategies for increasing the competitiveness of MSME in the Covid-19 pandemic conditions. The study was conducted at the Creative Industry MSME located in the Kp Pelintahan, Sei Rampah District, Serdang Bedagai Regency. The respondents who were the subjects of this study were 10 MSME players in the Creative Industry, Kp Pelintahan, who have been running this business for more than ten years. Sources of data in this study are primary data and secondary data. The data collection techniques used in this study were: semi-structured interviews, participatory observation, and questionnaires. This semi-structured interview aims to find more open problems, where the interviewee is asked for his opinion. Researchers in the ongoing interview process need to listen carefully and take notes on what the informants say. Data analysis steps in the case study (Akmal, 2011), namely?: a. Choose a social situation. Choosing a social situation is the first step that researchers must take before going directly to conduct research. b. Carry out participant observation. Participant observation: At this stage, the researcher is directly involved in the daily activities of the people used as sources of research data. c. Conducting observations and interviews. Observation and interviews, observation is a data collection technique where researchers must observe the spaciousness directly. At the same time, the interview is a question and answer conducted by researchers with informants now to obtain information related to the problem under study. d. Make descriptive observations. Descriptive observation, at this stage, the researcher has not brought the problem to be studied. So that the researchers conducted a thorough exploration, doing a description of everything that was seen, heard, and felt. At this stage, the researcher also produces the first conclusion. e. Perform domain analysis. Domain analysis, this stage is carried out to describe all that is found in descriptive observations. f. Make a focused observation. Focused observation, the researcher conducts a mini-tour of compliance at this stage, namely words that have been reduced to focus on specific aspects. g. Perform taxonomic analysis. A ST RAT EGY T O P ROMOT E T HE COMP ETIT I VENESS OF MI CRO, SMALL AND MEDI UM ENTERP RI SES ( MSME) DURI NG T HE CONDITION OF COVI D 19 P ANDEMI CS Rahmadani and Jefriyanto 200 After conducting focused observations, the taxonomic analysis then shows taxonomic research so that researchers can find the focus to be studied in depth. h. Make selected observations. Selected observation, at this stage, the researcher describes the focus found so that the research data is more detailed. i. Performs a component analysis. Componential analysis this analysis is a method of searching systematically related to cultural categories. After conducting this analysis, the researcher has found the characteristics, differences and similarities between types and found the relationship between one kind and another. j. Perform a theme analysis. Theme analysis, this analysis is based on assumptions. This analysis is conducted for researchers to find a deep understanding or hypothesis. k. Cultural findings. Cultural findings, after conducting a theme analysis, researchers found artistic conclusions of the research that had been done l. Writing qualitative research reports. The last data analysis step is that the researcher writes a qualitative research report on the cultural findings obtained. Based on the data analysis steps above, the qualitative research process, after entering the field, begins with determining a key informant who is an authoritative and trustworthy informant who can "open the door" for researchers to join the research object. Furthermore, the researchers conducted interviews with informants and recorded the results of the discussions. Then the attention of researchers on the thing of research and began to ask descriptive questions and analysis of the results of the interviews. Based on the results of the interview, a domain analysis was conducted. In the next step, the researcher has determined the focus and carried out a taxonomic study. Next, the researcher asked contrasting questions, which was followed by componential analysis. Then the results of the componential analysis, the researchers found cultural themes. Based on these findings, the researchers conducted a research report (Sugiyono, 2012). Furthermore, data collection was carried out through questionnaire techniques, using the AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process) method. Analytical Hierarchy Process is a method for solving problems in making decisions in uncertain situations and with various criteria (Chou & Yu, 2013). AHP conducted pairwise comparisons to assess alternative measures (Görener, Toker, & Uluçay, 2012). AHP aims to calculate the priority weight of the existing criteria. Then if the results are consistent, namely CR <= 0.1, then a SWOT analysis can be continued (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats). The SWOT analysis is structured to create an appropriate strategy for increasing competitiveness through weighting scores. (Görener et al., 2012) revealed that the SWOT analysis provides a basic outline for conducting a decision situation analysis. The following is figure 1 related to competitive strategy (Ariani, 2017): The strategy of an organization must pay attention to internal factors as well as external factors. Internal factors are factors from within the company, and external factors are factors from outside that affect an organization. The preparation of internal factors includes an assessment of strengths and weaknesses, namely the personal values of the critical elements. Meanwhile, external factors related to opportunities and threats are related to the expectations of the wider community. An organization is influenced by external factors, such as political, cultural, and legal and regulatory factors. So in formulating a strategy, these factors can influence.
