On 25 February 2022 an earthquake occurred in Pasaman area which caused 27 fatalities and forced 19.221 people to become refugees. Humanitarian logistics management is found to be one the main problems. This study aims to investigate how the management of disaster logistics during the emergency period of the earthquake disaster in West Pasaman Regency and to identify the problems that occur in the management of disaster logistics. Data collection was carried out through interviews with stakeholders related to disaster logistics and data was analysed using thematic analysis. The research produced a flowchart of disaster logistics management. From the flowchart, it can be seen the unnecessary and/or repetitive activity, as well as processes that are inconsistent. The problems were also identified. Opportunities for improvement in the disaster logistics management process can also be seen from the results of this study. It is hoped that this research will be useful for various stakeholders related to disaster logistics management, for the West Pasaman Regency, as well as other disaster-prone areas in Indonesia.
