Business Process Management (BPM) has emerged as a fundamental aspect of modern business, revolutionizing task execution and operational efficiency. BPM emerged as an efficient tool, whose main purpose is to support the design, administration, regulation, disclosure, and analysis of business processes, and organizations use it to identify opportunities to reduce costs and improve the quality of services or products. The importance of BPM in an organization or company lies in its ability to drive business growth rapidly and effectively. PT Unilever Indonesia Tbk is one of the large companies in Indonesia engaged in consumer goods, or the need for goods used directly or indirectly by consumers for disposable needs.

From the results of this study, it is known that PT Unilever Indonesia Tbk carries out long-term and short-term strategies to maintain product quality excellence, improve product segmentation strategies, improve product prices, increase market trends, and identify innovations needed by consumers in each segment.
