Research paper 

Abstract: Full attention is paid to quality in manufacturing; however, less effort is 
made to develop the organizational performance, which drives overall manufacturing 
quality. This research measures performance of one manufacturing company that in 
2020 experienced surging in demand and experiencing barriers to social activities due 
to the pandemic. The evaluation was carried out using seven variables from the 
Malcolm Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence (MBCfPE) which were 
elaborated into 43 indicators of organizational performance. Weaknesses and 
strengths of organizational performance were sharpened through focus group 
discussions with experts and ended with a performance improvement solution with a 
priority rank based on risk priority numbers (RPN) of the FMEA method. The highest 
RPN is 567 and 432, respectively, for national standard implementation in a particular 
product and operational scheme during emergency conditions like the Cov-19 
pandemic. This study contributes to Indonesian research that combines questionnaires 
and FMEA improvement analysis based on the US Baldrige criterion. 

Keywords: Performance Excellence, Baldrige Criteria, MBCfPE, FMEA. 

1. Introduction 

The industrial governance crisis due to COVID-19 has hit almost all countries, 
regardless of technological reliability, the sophistication of health services, or 
economic independence. (Ranggajati et al., 2020). According to various studies in the 
past year, the external aspects of the organization have greatly influenced the 
organization's performance, be it business in general or specifically in the industrial 
sector throughout 2020. (Yap, 2020), (Ahlstrom et al., 2020). External aspects that 
affect organizational performance include socio-economic shocks, political policies, 
and the environment (Amarkhil, 2019). According to the 2020 UNDP report on the 
actions of Asia Pacific business people, it was stated that in the period of the Cov-19

pandemic, 35% of businesses had to lay off staff, 25% postponed orders, 25% had to 
delay investment, 24% had to decrease wages, 18% reduce service (United Nations 
Development Programme, 2020). The report from Mckinsey released in early 2021 
(Zurich et al., 2021) shows that the companies that have managed to survive are the 
companies that have succeeded in responding to changes to the challenges of the 
pandemic during 2020. For example, operational efficiency has decreased, and the 
company has taken action to cut the budget. Likewise, the use of technology has 
increased with better technology. 

However, those reports did not provide basis of evaluation other than 
questionnaire. There is research gap between what had been done by the companies 
in respond to pandemic situation and what was background or reason for chosen 
actions. This gap requires approaching that put an existing or previous condition as 
base-line and find improvement in another way using tools that commonly being 
used by industries. Hence, this phenomenon is developed in this research by 
conducting studies and evaluating a manufacturing organization's performance 
during challenging periods. This research selected one organization as the research 
object, PT-EMB, which is a local industry that focuses on the fabrication and 
manufacturing of electromedical devices located in the Serpong industrial area, 
Banten province of Indonesia. This organization has ISO-13485 as the standard for 
the production quality of several types of medical devices. The company produces 
Oxygen Generators, which are in high demand during 2020, and the locally made 
ventilator. 

This research is carried out for all organization sections about production, 
including leadership criteria, strategic planning, customer handling, operational 
processes, labor factors, knowledge management, and performance measurement. 
The method chosen is the Baldrige criteria issued by the United States, which is 
commonly called the Malcolm Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence 
(MBCfPE), containing seven primary variables (NIST, 2020). Large companies 
typically recognize Baldrige performance measurement because the criteria or 
variables evaluated represent the overall indicators of organizational performance. 
Baldrige criteria can be applied to government institutions (H. Anggara & Hasibuan, 
2020; Widjajanto et al., 2020), hospitals (Sintari, 2020), education (Thompson & 
Blazey, 2017), and industries.  

The research question in this paper is how to evaluate local business performance 
during the 2020 pandemic period and what to be improved. Thus, this study's 
objectives are described as assessing the organization's performance during the 2020 
pandemic period using seven Baldrige variables and determining activities that must 
be improved to increase organizational performance. The baseline is Baldrige criteria 
version 2019-2020, but this research is intended to find performance improvement 
instead of performance scoring for award ranking.  Data collection, interviews, and 
discussions were carried out from November 2020 to January 2021.

2. Literature Study 

2.1 Baldrige Criteria for Performance Measurement 

Baldrige method is a quality management application formally enforced in its 
home country, i.e., the United States. The US-Congress initiated it in 1987 as a request 
to Malcolm Baldrige, Commerce Department Secretary. This system was approved by 
the US President and outlined in the "Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award 
Improvement Act of 1987" on August 20, 1987 (Vinyard, 2015). Tens of thousands of 
companies have adopted the Baldrige method in more than 70 countries in the world. 
Indonesia also adopted MBNQA and made the Indonesian Quality Award (IQA) an 
award for corporate performance (Widjajanto et al., 2020). Baldrige criteria consist of 
seven variables and are elaborated for this research into forty-three (43) indicators 
below Table 1.

Many organizational performance appraisals have been carried out using various 
methods (Abdollahbeigi & Salehi, 2020). Several countries developed their version of 
the way by referring to standards or practices that are already popular 
internationally. For example, the Thai government has tools for performance 
measurement in their agencies and organizations that adopt ISO and MBNQA 
(Pengsuwan & Choonhaklai, 2019). Then there is the SIQ, namely the Swedish 
Institute for Quality which was developed by adopting the MBNQA (Raharjo & 
Eriksson, 2017). Specifically, in several Asian countries, several articles describe the 
performance assessment of public service organizations such as the Batu Pahat City 
Government Office, Malaysia (Kaliannan et al., 2014), four government institution 
(Custom, Immigration, Land Transport, and Mining) in Malaysia (Ali et al., 2017), 
Indonesian Jakarta government licensing services (H. Anggara & Hasibuan, 2020)  
and a performance appraisal in the local government of the United Arab Emirates 
written by a US researcher (Furst Bowe, 2019) as well as an article on Saudi Arabia 
Public Service Organization written by UK researchers (Alhaqbani, 2017).  

Another study originating from Europe outlines the performance appraisal of 
public services, namely the Lithuanian public sector, using MBNQA, EFQM & BSC. 
(Balabonienė & Večerskienė, 2015), Organizations in Sweden (Eriksson et al., 2016), 
Public and private organizations in Sweden use SIQ (Raharjo & Eriksson, 2017)    and 
the Mayor's Office in Greece (Tasiou, 2017). EFQM is the European Foundation for 
Quality Management which emerged recently after the popular MBNQA  (Balabonienė 
& Večerskienė, 2015) and Sweden (Eriksson et al., 2016).  

2.2 FMEA Method for Evaluating Organizational Performance 

Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) was first developed in the aerospace 
industry in the 1960s as a systematic methodology for identifying known and 
unknown modes of failure, including causes and consequences on the system and 
verifying risks associated with priority scales for corrective action. (Liu, 2016).  The 
FMEA used in this research is classified as modified FMEA, which is developed 
according to a particular business organization (Huang et al., 2020). One example is a 
modified FMEA approach that combines multiple criteria decision making, adding a 
cost component to the Risk Priority Number (RPN) calculation (Lo & Liou, 2018). 



Modified Failure Mode and Effect Analysis Approaching to Improve Organization Performance 
Based On Baldrige Criteria - A Case Study of an Electro-medic Industry 

 

43 
 

Another example is the management of waste management in health institutions that 
also use modified FMEA (Ouyang et al., 2021) and FMEA modifications for health 
services (Shi et al., 2019). A study proving the relationship between risk management 
and organizational performance found the most important reasons for decreased 
performance in administrative implementation items through using the FMEA 
method by looking at cost and time losses (Hezla et al., 2020). 

The FMEA stages are briefly described: 

 Describes all operational activities, 

 Compiling potential problems that could arise, 

 Give the list of severity, occurrence, and detectability levels. 

 Calculating the risk priority number (RPN). 

 RPN = severity (S) x occurrence (O) x detectability (D) 

 Compile a list of actions or actions to reduce risk according to the RPN. 

The FMEA method is commonly used in industry, including electronic and medical 
devices. Several previous studies have shown significant results related to the use of 
this method. The use of FMEA is commonly used in the industry to identify possible 
failures in the production process. It aims to improve product quality and reliability 
(Hasbullah et al., 2017). Alternative repairs for each failure are priority 
improvements shown in the risk priority number (RPN) values (Budi Puspitasari et 
al., 2017). FMEA can also be combined with the Statistical Process Control (SPC) 
method, as carried out in a study that analyzed defects in the pulp and paper industry 
(Putra et al., 2020). Many practitioners use FMEA in the application of Total 
Productive Maintenance (TPM). A study to optimize machine maintenance using 
Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) and FMEA was conducted to evaluate the 
highest failures on a single type of machine with deficient availability & reliability 
values and did not meet production standards. The FMEA method is used to find six 
engine components with a high failure rate so that improvements can be made that 
increase the reliability value of the machine (Nugroho et al., 2020). FMEA in the 
electronics industry, as practiced in mobile phone manufacturing, can trace essential 
steps in improving the manufacturing process, resulting in reduced failures, reduced 
industrial costs and improved quality index, and satisfying customers. (Oliveira et al., 
2019). 

3. Research Method 

The stages of this research were started from determining the problem, aim and 
objectives, develop a methodology, and identifying the organization's profile of the 
research object. The collection of the profile information was carried out through 
initial interviews. If the information regarding the profile is sufficient, then placing 
the performance criteria is carried out through a questionnaire. The questionnaire 
results will be tested to see the level of correlation and the level of reliability. In 
Figure 1, a research flow diagram is presented that explains the steps of this research.

Figure 1. Research Framework 

 

This paper's research aims to evaluate the organizational performance of a local 
Indonesian electro-medical equipment manufacturing company, which during the 
Covid-19 pandemic period received a high demand for ventilator and oxygen 
generator products. The challenges faced, such as social restrictions, logistical 
difficulties, and other obstacles, will be analyzed in depth. Evaluating the 
organization's performance is continued by looking for improvement opportunities 
to improve its organizational capabilities that can compete globally based on the 
Baldrige criteria used by multinational companies. 

This study uses a descriptive exploratory approach using surveys, interviews, and 
discussions. Based on the Baldrige criteria, organizational performance appraisal 
produces a scoring used as a baseline as a brief description of the organization's 
profile. A focus group discussion (FGD) was used with experts selected based on their 
capabilities. That was part of the brainstorming with the FMEA approach through 
many performance indicators mapping the organization's condition. The empirical 
mapping was ranked under the severity, occurrence, and detectability category of the 
FMEA. The FMEA method makes it easy to adapt to actual situations and presents 
direct interactions between researcher, respondents, and related experts (Mzougui & 
El Felsoufi, 2019). 

A list of questions was adopted from Baldrige examiner edition 2019/2020 (NIST, 
2020) and practical samples (Yusuf, 2017) (Vinyard, 2015). Secondary data is taken 
from the company in log data related to fabrication activities during the Cov-19 
regulation in the form of records and reports obtained that will be helpful in the 
analysis and determination of corrective steps. The stages in the design of

performance improvement are carried out using a modified FMEA approach with the 
following steps: 

 Using the data obtained from Baldrige indicator list. 

 Discuss FMEA to find solutions for performance by ranking priorities. The tables 
for severity, occurrence, and detectability modified by reference are shown in 
the table below. 

 Evaluate and develop potential problems on severity, occurrence, detectability 
and calculate for respective indicators of Baldrige variables. 

4. Data Result and Analysis 

4.1 Baldrige Scoring Based on Questionaire 

The research questionnaire was distributed to all employees, where the 
characteristics of the respondents were collected as well age, gender, work 
experience, education level, and the job position of the respondent. Item Analysis is 
used to check the validity and reliability of items in measuring variables. These 
measuring use a Likert scale as the degree of approval of a statement. The questions 
in the questionnaire used the Baldrige for examiner edition 2019/2020 reference 
(NIST, 2020). Minitab's item analysis yields the Pearson correlation and Cronbach's 
alpha values. The Pearson value obtained by Minitab is then compared with the value 
from the Pearson R critical value table, with a significance of 0.05 and df = 24; the 
figure is 0.388. If the calculated Pearson correlation value shows a value greater than 
0.388, the data is declared valid. Item analysis was carried out to all Baldrige 
variables and concluded that all survey data is valid and reliable. 

Baldrige score on each questionnaire variable, according to H. Anggara & 
Hasibuan (2020) obtained through the formula:  

  x (Standard score for each Baldrige variable)  (1) 

   ni = number of respondent for the answer i 

   wi = weight of answer i 

   N = total number of respondents  

   W = largest answer weight = 5 (Likert scale) 

   Y = total number of questions for each categorical variable 

Calculation and recapitulation of performance scores uses common excel 
spreadsheets. Its summary is presented in Table 2 as a summary of total scoring. The 
Baldrige score for the company performance is 463.09 shown in the table. That is 
equal to 45.86% compared to the ideal Baldrige excellence performance. Obtained a 
total score of 463.09 is in the Early improvement achievement according to MBNQA 
award criteria. Criteria 1 until 7 description is available in Table 1 including all 
relevant question poin.

Total - 463,09 1000 45,86% - - 

The table also states the gap value obtained from subtraction the obtained score 
against the average. The negative score on the gap column is classified as weakness, 
while the positive as strength. The lowest minus value is in criteria no.6 or the 
Baldrige criteria for operations. That has been labeled as weakness and will be the 
primary target for corrective action. In that summary, the performance that is 
considered weak falls also to criteria no.4 Measurement, Analysis and Knowledge 
Management (MAKM). The leadership or criteria no.1 is superior to the most robust 
criteria in this company. 

4.2 FMEA FGD Result 

The next step in finding a performance improvement solution is to quantify the 
Baldrige performance items by looking at the potential failures of this company. The 
qualitative performance items are evaluated using a modified FMEA by analyzing the 
effect of the loss on the schedule, costs, and outputs that impact either major or minor 
(Harman, 2020; Hezla et al., 2020). The FMEA working paper produced in this 
research can be classified as a preventive risk assessment method. The results are 
finding, prioritizing, and removing potential problems as material for improvement 
and lessons learned in future company activities. (Hezla et al., 2020).

In compiling the FMEA, three people were selected as an expert, the first resource 
person from government representative (X1 or Expert no.1), the second is an 
academic lecturer (X2 or Expert no.2), and the third expert is person-in-charge 
General Manager of the company (X3 or Expert no.3). Some references have been 
used to determine severity level by looking at the effects of the schedule, total costs 
and technical problems (Liu, 2016) (Hezla et al., 2020) elaborated in Table 3 (a). The 
level of occurrence and detectability is consecutively in Table 3 (b) and Table 3 (c). 

The assessment begins with the information obtained from the Baldrige criteria as 
the basis for performance items. The points of failure are developed, which can be 
extracted from the situation in the company that is the object of research and 
evaluated for possible losses that can reduce the company's organizational 
performance. Focus on the three main variables of the FGD results that show weak 
performance. Each item in the variable is assessed severity, occurrence, and detection 
and calculates risk priority number (RPN). The evaluation results are in Table 4 
below and sorted by RPN ranking. Indicator desciprion is available in Table 1 in 
previous section.

The results obtained in the table show that the priority which has the potential to 
become a significant problem is the absence of a reference standard, in this case, the 
specific Indonesian National Standard (SNI) for ventilator products, getting the 
highest RPN score of 567. That is confirmed by other experts who work in 
certification bodies that Currently, Indonesia does not have it yet. Hence, the 
prototype built during the 2020 pandemic uses open-source references from 
research institutions (FKUI, 2020). 

The subsequent finding that becomes the second priority is the availability of 
material needs, spare parts, and work tools with an RPN score of 416.7. The root of 
the problem that was successfully explored was the finding of non-standard 
components so that for each unit produced, different tunings and adjustments had to 
be done. The company confirmed the failure because the materials and parts they 
received were from research institutions without an independent purchasing process 
to find a better supply source. 

The potential for performance failure, which is ranked third with an RPN score of 
396, is related to the readiness of the operational scheme to face the Covid-19 
pandemic emergency. The informant confirmed that the challenges faced during the 
pandemic were the limitation on the number of workers due to social distancing, 
difficulties in mobilizing to testing agencies, and logistical constraints on sensor 
components that still have to be imported from abroad. Potential failure in the 
subsequent RPN ranking is regarding teamwork cooperation, equipment operated by 
authorized personnel, approved work instructions and SOPs, customer satisfaction, 
information on work implementation for all employees, sharing information on 
production targets, and stable company financial performance condition, and the 
comfort of the working place. The availability of work guidelines is emphasized in 
Table 6 under several indicators, i.e., all equipment operated using approved 
instructions with an RPN score of 327.1 and is ranked sixth. The seventh and eighth 
ranks were also related to work instructions, with an RPN score of 299.9. Evaluation 
of the use of the method & SOP has an RPN score of 281.1.

5. Result and Discussion 

5.1 Company Performance Evaluation Compare with Other Researches 

This study presents two empirical studies, the first on assessing Baldrige variables 
in organizations using questionnaire data, which according to the literature, is a self-
assessment. The second is to evaluate Baldrige performance indicators according to 
independent reviewers with selected sources. As such, it provides a deeper level of 
reliability and validity regarding assessment, perception, and reporting. The second 
important aspect of these studies is improving and improving the quality of 
performance in organizations that can be developed over time. 

This research results obtained the highest Baldrige score on leadership 
performance, as shown in Table 5 (a) and (b). The lowest score is received on the 
Operational and Process performance variables. That is consistent with the results of 
previous research in the application of quality management in industry 
(Anastasiadou & Taraza, 2019; Fatima & Mahaboob, 2018; Mellat-Parast, 2015; 
Parast & Golmohammadi, 2019; Savov et al., 2017; Thompson & Blazey, 2017).  This 
research found that the leadership factor is the primary driver of the quality 
performance of the organization. These results confirm the Baldrige concept that 
organization system is driven by leadership as well as senior staff, and this is the 
primary key to improving quality performance (Ahuja et al., 2019; Asif et al., 2019; 
Parast & Golmohammadi, 2019; Savov et al., 2017).

Table 6 below is compiled from various references related to the development of 
organizational performance and its significant factors. These essential factors affect 
organizational performance, either directly or indirectly, and positively encourage or 
hinder organizational performance improvement. The leadership factor is a 
significant factor affecting organizational performance, both positive and negative  
(Nandasinghe, 2020), (Parast & Golmohammadi, 2019), (Asif et al., 2019), (Ahuja et 
al., 2019), (Anastasiadou & Taraza, 2019), (Savov et al., 2017).

(Muwardi et al., 2020), (Mahmud et al., 2020), (Abdul 
Rauf et al., 2020), (Abbas et al., 2018), (Abualoush et al., 
2018), (Chaudhry et al., 2017), (Puška et al., 2018) 

Strategic Planning 
(Kasushik & Guleria, 2020), (Chioke & Mbamalu, 2020), 
(Ahuja et al., 2019), (Anastasiadou & Taraza, 2019), 
(Dobrosavljević & Urošević, 2019) 

External Organization Factor 
(social, politic, environment)  

(Yap, 2020), (Ahlstrom et al., 2020), (Amarkhil, 2019) 

One literature shows the importance of the causal relationship from the 
leadership factor to the information factor. The analysis is quantitatively 
demonstrated, proving that leadership has a vital role in information analysis and 
knowledge management variables. (Parast & Golmohammadi, 2019). Another study 
examined the relationship between leadership, quality of administration, quality of 
medical services, and patient satisfaction using the MBNQA criteria. Further research 
in hundreds of Pakistan hospitals investigated the effect of interventions on quality of 
medical service with relation to patient satisfaction and leadership. It obtained a 
positive relationship between leadership, administrative quality, medical quality, and 
patient satisfaction. In addition, administrative quality and medical quality were 
found as potential mediators in the relationship between leadership and customer 
satisfaction (Asif et al., 2019). 

The second factor is by improving the internal work system of the organization, 
which is manifested by training actions, sharing knowledge between members of the 
organization and between departments so that the main objectives of the 
organization are achieved with the best collective performance and also job rotation 
(Sebt & Ghasemi, 2021), (Kanapathipillai & Azam, 2020), (Ahmed et al., 2020), 
(Muwardi et al., 2020), (Mahmud et al., 2020), (Abdul Rauf et al., 2020), (Abbas et al., 
2018), (Abualoush et al., 2018), (Chaudhry et al., 2017), (Puška et al., 2018). 

The third significant factor, according to the previous literature, is strategy and 
planning (Khan et al., 2021), (Kasushik & Guleria, 2020), (Chioke & Mbamalu, 2020), 
(Ahuja et al., 2019), (Anastasiadou & Taraza, 2019), (Dobrosavljević & Urošević, 
2019), which in this research, it is included in the Baldrige variable number 2. 
However, this study did not find that variable is the dominant performance. However, 
strategic planning is still needed, especially the redesign of the roles and functions of 
each employee to adapt to the post-pandemic new normal conditions. 

According to the literature, the fourth significant factor is the external influence of 
the organization, namely the social, environmental, or political policies imposed by 
the government. There are challenges in the form of Social Restrictions policies that 
limit the industry's movement both organizationally and in employee activities. 
Working conditions under pressure, restrictions on job access, and decreased 
employee motivation will affect organizational performance (S. A. Anggara et al., 
2019). However, other research shows that managing the risks that may arise will 
improve the performance of the company organization (Najib et al., 2019).

The literature review also shows the importance of customer relationship 
management, leadership, communication, and strategic alignment as a very 
significant causal in implementing efficient continuous performance improvement. 
(Ahuja et al., 2019). As a comparison, researchers also reviewed research on 
evaluating organizational performance in education using the Baldrige criteria in 
Greece. The results of these studies prove that the main factor in their Tertiary 
Education System is leadership. The following variable that must be taken into 
account is Strategic Planning, which also has a significant effect on the successful 
implementation of quality (Anastasiadou & Taraza, 2019). The last article used as a 
reference shows that using a performance measurement system will affect 
organizational performance, especially helping organizations monitor performance, 
which ultimately leads to target achievement and gathering information and activity 
records that are useful for improving its performance. This system will affect various 
aspects of the organization, including financial and non-financial performance, 
employee behavior, and overall performance (Owais & Kiss, 2020).  

5.2 Research Contribution to the Company 

This research provides several contributions to the companies related to 
evaluating their performance, including leadership, strategic planning, knowledge 
management, customer handling, employment, operations, and production. First, this 
research evaluates the companies' performance using a Baldrige model, which is 
theoretically robust and has been widely applied in the business world. It is the first 
empirical performance evaluation to PT-EMB uses this kind of performance 
measurement. One of the critical implications of this finding is that the PT-EMB will 
use the Baldrige model as a self-assessment tool to improve the quality of 
performance further.

Previous research has used the Baldrige model to improve performance quality 
using cross-sectional surveys (Parast & Golmohammadi, 2019), and it usually follows 
up with SWOT analysis. Thus, the second contribution of our research is the novelty 
that brings up Baldrige indicator assessment via FMEA to produces suggestions for 
performance improvements on a priority scale. This is a contribution to academic 
theory as well that combines Baldrige with FMEA approach. 

The third contribution of this research is to understand how to carry out 
comprehensive organizational performance measurements regardless of the business 
model and looking for loopholes to improve the quality of performance using the 
Baldrige approach. The improvement suggestions to the company are listed out 
relevant with each main criterion in Table 7. 

One of the critical points of the discussion above is the absence of a specific 
Indonesian national standard (SNI) for the production of ventilators. Although this 
SNI is the government's responsibility through the National Standardization Agency 
for Indonesia, this does not escape its responsibility in ensuring the quality of its 
products. In general, the production process at this company has met the ISO-13485 
quality standard (the quality standard for the medical device industry) except for the 
local ventilator production line, which specifically mass-produced prototypes made 
in Indonesia.  

In addition, it is recommended that the PT-EMB involves the quality team from 
the planning stage, the purchasing process stage, and the material receiving stage. At 
the planning stage, selecting materials and determining specifications that guarantee 
quality should be considered. In the purchasing stage, the supplier selection must be 
reviewed and the technical quality specifications offered by the supplier. When 
receiving goods, the quality team must verify all materials are per the desired quality. 

5.3 Research Limitation 

This study has limitations related to social and activity restrictions due to the 
pandemic in the company, which causes questionnaire data collection, interviews, 
and discussions to be carried out in stages repeatedly—some using a paper 
questionnaire form and some using an online application. The same thing was done 
when FGD discussions with experts were conducted online using the video call 
facility and the online google-form application. The time limitation possessed by the 
five experts can be overcome by partially discussing several stages until all the 
results are collected, which can be made a consensus with the confirmation of the 
experts as a resource. 

Organizational performance appraisal using the Baldrige variable in this company 
has never been carried out other than a performance appraisal for employees as a 
requirement for calculating the annual bonus and ISO13485 assessment for 
administrative production areas. Thus, the result cannot be compared to the previous 
comprehensive company performance evaluation. Other industries in Indonesia that 
use the Baldrige variable are only government-owned companies, hospitals, and 
educational institutions; hence, benchmarking cannot be carried out. 

The performance evaluation was in the Cov-19 pandemic period so that company 
activities were only prioritized for the production of equipment for Covid-19 
handling, which was carried out urgently, i.e., oxygen generators and local prototype

ventilators, and might be different from activities in normal conditions either before 
or after the pandemic. 

6. Conclusion and Suggestion 

6.1 Conclusion 

The results showed that the performance of this company, when analyzed using 
the Baldrige variable, was at the early improvement level of achievement, with the 
best value performance in the leadership variable and the lowest value performance 
in the operational variable. It is in line with the expert's evaluation that the priority 
performance should be improved is the Operational variables. Apart from these 
variables, other variables also show weak performance indicator items, namely in the 
knowledge management variable, performance analysis, and measurement and 
outcome variables. Weak performance in the labor variable is only found in the 
indicator of co-worker cooperation. 

This study produces solutions to improve company performance in the order of 
priority. In practical terms, the performance items that involve the internal company 
will be easily corrected. What will be difficult to implement is the availability of 
national standards for ventilator products. Until the time this research was compiled 
has not been issued by the National Standardization Agency for Indonesia. 

6.2 Suggestion for Future Research 

 Evaluating organizational performance using the Baldrige variable for 
manufacturing electro-medical devices can be a role model for similar industries, 
particularly in Indonesia and South East Asia. The obstacles encountered can be 
used as lessons learned by other researchers. 

 Organizational evaluation using the Baldrige model combined with FMEA was not 
found in previous literature. Thus, further research is expected to be followed that 
will strengthen the use of these approaches.
