Abstract


This study aims to analyze the integration of the Business-Level Strategy concept in strategic management to strengthen the quality of education in Islamic boarding schools. In the context of increasingly complex competition and changes in the educational environment, the implementation of business strategies in Islamic-based institutions is a crucial need to maintain the relevance, quality, and sustainability of Islamic boarding schools. This study uses a qualitative method with a case study approach in several Islamic boarding schools that have implemented modern managerial strategies. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, then analyzed using data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing techniques. The results show that the integration of Business-Level Strategy through the differentiation of educational services, efficient resource management, and strengthening spiritual values can significantly improve the quality of the institution. This strategy encourages Islamic boarding schools to be more adaptive to community needs, enhances management professionalism, and strengthens a competitive Islamic identity. The implications of this study indicate that the implementation of Business-Level Strategy not only strengthens the institution's competitiveness but can also be used as a model for developing sustainable and Islamic-characterized Islamic boarding school strategic management.
