Study of location selection of public facilities using the AHP method (Case of Lamongan District BLK location selection)

Abstract

One procedure in the construction of public facilities is a location selection. The Lamongan district government has set up the construction of the Lamongan district job training center (BLK) on Jl. Jaksa Agung Suprapto, but the problem that arises is whether the decision making process for determining the construction location is correct or not. This research intends to conduct a study of the decision making process in which the research approach is done using the AHP method. From the research that has been done, there are 9 criteria for selecting the location of public facilities with respective weight value i.e spatial layout (TRW) of 0,263, electricity and water network availability (KJL) of 0,244, disaster potential (PBE) of 0,126, land condition (KOL) of 0,078, land area (LUL) of 0,074, road network availability (KJJ) of 0,029, population density (KP) of 0,017, population acceptance rate (TPP) of 0,037 and land availability (KEL) of 0,131. From the AHP calculation, scores have been obtained for each alternative location, i.e. location of Jl. Jaksa Agung Suprapto with a value of 0,610, location of Jl. Sumargo Tlogoanyar with a value of 0,173, and location of Jl. pahlawan with a value of 0,217. Jl. Jaksa Agung Suprapto is the location with the largest score, so that it is the best location for the construction of the Lamongan district job training center (BLK).
