Outlined, the performance of PG Madukismo shows good results, the financial perspective shows some improvement, profit has increased, as well as efficiency. The customer's perspective also shows satisfactory performance, the high level of customer retention and the minimum level of complaints is enough to explain. The internal business process perspective results are also satisfactory, innovation on production, sales and after-sales processes are considered good. A less encouraging perspective is the perspective of growth and learning, even though employee retention is good but the amount of employee training actually shows a downward trend. Last but not least, is a social and environmental perspective. The results obtained were quite surprising, although in 2016 the news about Madukismo waste management was less pleasant, in 2018 Madukismo was able to improve its waste management and get a positive response from surrounding communities who said that the stench from Madukismo waste continued to decrease.Implication.
