Introduction
ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) is envisioned to be the realization of ASEAN
economic integration by 2015. It has four vision namely ASEAN as a single
market and production base, highly competitive economic region, inclusive and
equitable development that focuses in supporting small and medium enterprises,
and coherent approach towards external economic relations as well as
enhancement of participation in global supply networks [1]. Facing forward the AEC by
the end of 2015 and anticipating global competition in business sector, SMEs in
Indonesia have to strengthen their operational, improve its quality, and
provide unique business to compete in global condition.

which is increasing every year. Increasing consumption level means increasing
demand of the product along with the economic growth hence the industry has
potency to growth more.

business key element. It facilitates the company to establish,
evaluate, and manage its business through canvas approach[4].

Basic Theory
2.1. SWOT Analysis
SWOT analysis identifiesseveral factors inside and
outside the company systematically to formulate business strategies. It
consists of four quadrants namely strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and
threats. The basic for SWOT analysis is logic
to optimize strengths and opportunities as well as minimize weakness and
threats at the same time. Strengths illustrate items owned by the analyzed
company at higher level compared with business in the same field that assures
certain advantage to them. Weaknesses describe the characteristics of the
company which are either in lower performance or are needed but does not
possessed. Opportunities are favorable opportunities from the external side
available to the company which provide positive influence towards business.
Threats are obstacles from external side which may affect the business capacity
to fully achieve the target and there is chance to reduce business
performance. SWOT analysis can be
established through identification of internal and external business environment.

The
results of internal and external factor identification afterward are formulated
into SWOT matrix. SWOT matrix mapping interactions between internal factors and
internal factors to identify the important links between internal strengths,
weakness and external opportunities, threats [5]. It arranges company
strategic factors and describes how to adjust external opportunities and
threats faced by the company with the strengths and weakness possessed by the
company. It delivers four set of possible strategic alternatives: SO strategy,
ST strategy, WO strategy, and WT strategy [6].

2.2. Business Model Canvas (BMC)
Business model is the logic on how the organization
earns money. It highlighted two fundamental questions related the value
provided to the customer and organization’ ability to capture value in the
process of serving customers[7]. Business model also
defines as tools allowing entrepreneurs and managers toimagine and craft organizations adept at drawing value from new
technologies[8].
Business Model Canvas (BMC) is one of business model
innovation used worldwide. It is describing the rationale of how an
organization creates, delivers, and captures values [9]. BMC using the same
language to develops, visualizes, appraises and alternates the existing
business model. It divides business model into nine major components namely Customer Segments, Value
propositions, Channel, Customer Relationships, Revenue Streams, Key Resources,
Key Activities, Key Partners, and Cost
Structure (sorted from right to left)[9].
The right side of the canvas represents the innovation
and relatesdirectly to the customer. It consists of Customer Segments, Value
propositions, Channels,
Customer Relationships, and Revenue
Streams. Customer segments describe the variety of group of people or
organization who the company wants to provide. Value propositions describe combinations
of products and services which create value for customer segments. Channels
explain about the way company communicates with the customer and provide the
value propositions. Various
types of relationships are built together between the company and specific customer
segments are described in customer relationships. Revenue streams are about cash
inflow generated from value propositions offered to the customer segments.
The left side of the canvas represents the logical
part related to business operational. It consists of Key Resources, Key Activities,
Key Partners, and Cost
Structure. The most important and necessary assets in functioning the business
model is described in Key Resources. Key activities illustrate the most
important things that must be done by the company so the business model can
work. Key partners describe the networking of supplier and partners who support
the business model. Cost structure is about all expenses occurred to operate
the business model.
Business Model Canvas also can be used to established projections of financial
analysis. It compares revenue stream and cost structure. Revenue stream consist
of main income and other income, whereas cost structure consist of production
cost, marketing expenses, research and development cost, administrative expenses,
and taxes[11][12].
