The identification of halal and non-halal products by utilizing QR code for disaster logistics: Mobile-friendly website application.

Halal product assurance is important to ensure the products is permissible to consume, especially by Muslims. Therefore, it is necessary to have an identification process between halal and non-halal products that come from other countries before being distributed to disaster victims by reading the ingredients contained in each product. This is a challenge for the logistical preparedness of disasters in Indonesia in distributing food products quickly while still ensuring the halal status of a product through the process of identifying halal and non-halal products non-manually. This study was conducted by designing a mobile-friendly website that will provide output in the form of QR Code as a medium for storing halal and non-halal ingredients data of each food aid product from other countries so that the halal status of the product can be displayed quickly through the QR Code scanning process. The design method used is System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) waterfall with prototyping development techniques to describe the processes that occur in the whole system. The results of this study indicate that the system designed can identify the halal status of a food product by displaying non-halal ingredient data contained in the product through the QR Code scanning process. The application can assist the distribution of food aid from other countries by identifying the halal status through the QR Code scanning process at each entry point such as port, airport, and military base for receiving relief goods before being distributed to the beneficiaries.
