Judul: Study on Nestlé Internal Instructions: a Good Practice for Excellence in Compliance at PT. Nestlé Indonesia Jakarta
Abstrak: Nestlé Internal Instruction is the internal procedure of Nestlé in place to ensure full compliance with the regulatory requirements and to give implementation guidelines on company policy. Nestlé has already established its Nestlé Internal Instructions related to Quality Management which consist of instructions on Supplier Quality Assurance, Food Safety, Competitive Quality & Consumer, and Nestlé Quality Management System & Quality Training. The objective of this study during internship program as a final project is to identify and mapped Nestlé Internal Instruction as hard copy form related to Quality Management Department for excellence in compliance. The information was collected and evaluated based on the standards and regulations which can be obtained through the respected Authority Body’s website as softcopy form. Nestlé Internal Instructions related to Quality Management have already complied as a good practice for excellence in compliance. These Internal Instructions are also compliant with national or international regulations and standards. In some cases, Nestlé Internal Instructions are higher and stricter than regulations and standards depend on where the product is sold.

Judul: Food Regulatory and Standard Environment: Case Study on Plain and Flavored UHT (Ultra High Temperature) Milk
Abstrak: Ultra High Temperature (UHT) milk is one of milk products that is offered in the market nowadays, especially in Indonesia. The study and internship program on food regulation and standard was conducted at PT Nestlé Indonesia. PT. Nestlé Indonesia has a department that takes care on regulatory and standard matter, called Regulatory Affairs Department. PT. Nestlé Indonesia always concern on compliance of its product with the existed regulation and standard, so that the excellent quality of the product along with the care to consumer safety and healthy could be achieved. The opportunity for global trading was encouraged recently, and the barrier that will be faced by the industries in Indonesia, including food industry, is compliancy to regulations and standards of importing and exporting countries. The scope of this internship covers regulations and standards that related to milk and UHT milk. The activity was initiated with inventorying and listing of particular regulations and standards. The obtained regulations and standards were analyzed based on food category system, labeling practices, food additives provision, nutrient additive provision, analysis and sampling, hygiene practices, maximum residue level of veterinary drug provision, food safety, contaminants provision, export and import matter provision, and specific regulation/standard for milk and UHT milk. From the collected documents, the regulations and standards that containing information on permitted food additives and contaminants and their maximum level were evaluated. The regulations and standards of UHT milk that covered in this study were based on regulations and standards National level that include the governmental regulations, the National Agency of Drug and Food Control (NADFC) decrees and the National Standard of Indonesia (Indonesian-SNI); at global level that represented by Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC) Documents (standards, guidelines, recommended code of practices); at regional level that represented by European Union commission and/or council regulations; and at milk exporting countries level that represented by Australia and New Zealand using Food Standards Australia - New Zealand (FSANZ), and by United States of America using Code of Federal Regulation (CFR) that concentrated on food. ...

Judul: Approximation of the Median of Poisson Distribution Using the Relation of Poisson-Gamma Distribution
Abstrak: A major drawback of median is that median cannot usually be defined in closed form, even in the cases where their distribution functions are known. This study gives an approximation of the closed form for the median of the Poisson distribution by using the relation of Poisson-Gamma distribution. The approximation uses elementary techniques based on the monotonicity of certain sequences involving tail probabilities of the Poisson distribution and the Central Limit Theorem. Furthermore, a closed form expression for the mean absolute deviation 􀜧|􀜰􀰒 􀵆 􀜯􀝁􀝀􁈺􀜰􀰒􁈻| is also studied. The median is relevant because of the fact that it minimizes the mean absolute deviation of a Poisson random variable (􀜰􀰒􁈻 by considering median as central tendency.
