The research methods used are interviews, observations, historical data collection and literature studies related to this discussion. The results of this study indicate that the best research method of the weighted moving average and exponential smoothing methods for the demand for heavy equipment repair services at PT Putra Jawamas is exponential smoothing with α = 0.2 and the forecast for October 2023 is 4 units.
