Through scholarly articles, case studies, and empirical research, the journal seeks to unearth methodologies and techniques that bolster efficiency, productivity, and adaptability within industrial paradigms.

Interdisciplinary Approach

The journal recognizes the multifaceted nature of soft systems optimization, requiring an amalgamation of disciplines such as engineering, management science, human factors, and information technology. From strategic decision-making in human-resource allocation to the integration of technology in supply chain management and ergonomic considerations in workplace design, the journal stands as a conduit for cutting-edge, interdisciplinary research.

Ethical Standards

With a steadfast commitment to academic integrity and ethical conduct, Jurnal Optimasi Sistem Industri upholds rigorous standards of inquiry and scholarship. The journal adheres to the guidelines and requirements set forth by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), ensuring that ethical practices are maintained throughout the publication process. Authors, reviewers, and editors are encouraged to familiarize themselves with COPE's principles and engage in responsible research and publication conduct.

Key Focus Areas

The journal's scholarly interests span a wide array of domains, including but not limited to soft systems optimization, the fusion of engineering and management principles, innovations in supply chain and logistics, quality control methodologies, continuous improvement frameworks, human-centric design, and the exploration of emerging technologies such as Industry 4.0, AI, and automation.
