Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) of ship component are manufacturing companies that produce ship components, including the square window, Side scuttle, and weathertight door. The reliability of vessel component quality is a major factor in shipping industry as it involves safety in sailing. As a result, the technology becomes a main requirement that must be mastered by the manufacturer as a determinant of the competitiveness of the products. This study aimed to determine the level of technology contribution in achieving product quality standards in the ship component SME and the strategies to strengthen the technology contribution in achieving product quality standards of ship component SME in Indonesia. Technology components measured include technoware, humanware, infoware, and orgaware. Technology assessment is done by comparing the two types of different ship component SME of ships, namely SME ships component whose some of its products have been certified (SME1) by Biro Klasifikasi Indonesia (BKI) and ship component SMEwhose products have not been certified (SME1; thus technology gap was obtained as the basis for strategy analysis of the quality standard achievement. The results of the data analysis show that of the SME1 the humanware component contribution is the highest (0.623), followed by technoware (0.558), infoware (0.556), and the smallest is orgaware (0.472). Meanwhile, of the SME2 the highest contribution is technoware component (0.261), followed by humanware (0280), orgaware (0.194) and the smallest is infoware (0.167). Successively the grades of TCC (Technology Contribution Coefficient) for SME1 and SME2 are 0.5788 and 0.2393. Therefore, according to the results of this study the humanware component has priority to be upgraded soon, followed by technoware, orgaware and infoware. SME1 has TCC values below 0.7 and above 0.3, being classified as a level of semi-modern technology, while SME2 has TCC values below 0.3, being classified as a level of traditional technology.
