One of the social assistance programs routinely provided by the government to Beneficiary Families (KPM) to overcome poverty problems in Indonesia at this time is Non-Cash Food Assistance (BPNT). The Pekanbaru City Social Service itself in distributing BPNT still experiences obstacles, such as the provision of assistance that is less targeted due to the absence of a system that is able to determine the recipient of aid appropriately. This research applies the Fuzzy C-Means Clustering method to analyze KPM data using MATLAB tools. This algorithm allows overlap between data groups and classifies KPM based on their characteristic patterns. This algorithm takes into account the membership level of each data in each group, thus providing more flexible results and not categorizing data rigidly. The results of the application of the FCM Clustering method in this study form two clusters, where the first cluster contains 331 data while in the second cluster there are 351 data. Testing the results of FCM clustering conducted using the Silhouette Coefficient method produces an average coefficient value of 0.426653079. Based on the value of the test results that have been carried out, the FCM algorithm is considered capable of forming clusters on BPNT data
