A Proposed Methodology For Bridging Policy And Practice To Apply Indonesian SOE Regulations In The Balanced Scorecard Model

This research aims to develop a practical methodology to bridge policy and operational practice at PT Jakarta Industrial Estate Pulogadung (JIEP) through the implementation of a modified Balanced Scorecard (BSC) framework that aligns with Indonesian State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) regulations. The study addresses the challenge of aligning shareholder directives with daily operations, which often struggle to translate corporate KPIs into operational KPIs. The research finds that while SOEs' administrative culture ensures regulatory compliance, there remains a need for a more structured performance management approach. By integrating goal-setting, expectancy, and control theories into the modified BSC framework, the study offers an approach that aligns regulations, corporate targets, and operational goals. The methodology used is a descriptive case study involving qualitative and quantitative data collection through internal document analysis, workshop discussions, and in-depth interviews. The data were analyzed to develop and implement a strategy map and KPIs relevant to the organization's strategic objectives. The findings show that the proposed framework effectively bridges the gap between policy and practice, ensuring that SOE regulations are not only adhered to but strategically leveraged to enhance organizational performance. By adopting this framework, JIEP and other SOEs can align unit goals with corporate and governmental strategic objectives, creating a more effective and sustainable performance management system. This research makes a significant contribution to the development of performance management systems that can be implemented in other SOEs, offering substantial improvements over existing practices

Identifikasi Rantai-Pasok Dalam Industri Konstruksi Indonesia Untuk Pengembangan Sistem Penjaminan Mutu

. The construction industry products are usually created based on request from the clients (government organizations or private sector) by the contracted second party (contractor) who mobilizes various resources such as construction material, equipment and labor, which are supplied by a series of suppliers then assembled at the project site by the various contractors (prime and sub-contractors).The supply chain within the construction production process during the construction stage has been identified, in light of investigating the quality assurance processes within each supply chain components. Observations are made by survey to project sites through semi-structured depth interviewing for all the supply chain actors within the case study projects. Indicators used in the survey are based on ISO 9001:2000 procedures already adopted by the contractors. The observation result shows that there are four basic elements required to assure the quality of the product: defining project scope, specifying features and baseline system, build product, and deliver product to customer. To implement these elements, twelve steps need to be completed by the supply chain parties in order to accomplish quality assurance process. The process is found to be very similar with those of ISO 9001:2000 standards.The result of this study is expected to be usefull for parties involved in construction industry in setting up their supply chain, where quality assurance of the construction products is a major issue in improving costumer satisfaction

A social and ecological assessment of tropical land uses at multiple scales: the Sustainable Amazon Network

Science has a critical role to play in guiding more sustainable development trajectories. Here, we present the Sustainable Amazon Network (Rede Amazonia Sustentavel, RAS): a multidisciplinary research initiative involving more than 30 partner organizations working to assess both social and ecological dimensions of land-use sustainability in eastern Brazilian Amazonia. The research approach adopted by RAS offers three advantages for addressing land-use sustainability problems: (i) the collection of synchronized and co-located ecological and socioeconomic data across broad gradients of past and present human use; (ii) a nested sampling design to aid comparison of ecological and socioeconomic conditions associated with different land uses across local, landscape and regional scales; and (iii) a strong engagement with a wide variety of actors and non-research institutions. Here, we elaborate on these key features, and identify the ways in which RAS can help in highlighting those problems in most urgent need of attention, and in guiding improvements in land-use sustainability in Amazonia and elsewhere in the tropics. We also discuss some of the practical lessons, limitations and realities faced during the development of the RAS initiative so far.Keywords: Social–ecological systems, Tropical forests, Land use, Interdisciplinary research, Sustainability, Trade-off

Biodiversity conservation in human-modified Amazonian forest landscapes.

Amazonia (sensu lato) is by far the largest tropical forest region, but has succumbed to the highest absolute rates of tropical deforestation and forest degradation, driven by rapid frontier expansion, road-building, and spontaneous or government-subsidized migration. The large area-through-time and paleo-climatic stability of Amazonian forests may help explain the high regional to local scale plant and animal species diversity of true forest specialists and high ecological sensitivity to contemporary land-use change. We describe the prevailing forms of anthropogenic disturbance that affect forest organisms in the context of the geographic and evolutionary background that has shaped the degree to which forest species may be resilient to environmental change. The fate of Amazonian biodiversity will partly depend upon the interaction between land-use and climate change, and the extent to which seasonally-dry forests can retain immunity against catastrophic recurrent wildfires. This review illustrates the importance of considering interactions between different forms of forest disturbance to develop effective conservation policy. We conclude with some considerations of the policy agenda necessary to protect forest cover and forest biodiversity at a meaningful scale across the Amazonian biome

Listening to patients, for the patients: The COVAD Study-Vision, organizational structure, and challenges

Background: The pandemic presented unique challenges for individuals with autoimmune and rheumatic diseases (AIRDs) due to their underlying condition, the effects of immunosuppressive treatments, and increased vaccine hesitancy. Objectives: The COVID-19 vaccination in autoimmune diseases (COVAD) study, a series of ongoing, patient self-reported surveys were conceived with the vision of being a unique tool to gather patient perspectives on AIRDs. It involved a multinational, multicenter collaborative effort amidst a global lockdown. Methods: Leveraging social media as a research tool, COVAD collected data using validated patient-reported outcomes (PROs). The study, comprising a core team, steering committee, and global collaborators, facilitated data collection and analysis. A pilot-tested, validated survey, featuring questions regarding COVID-19 infection, vaccination and outcomes, patient demographics, and PROs was circulated to patients with AIRDs and healthy controls (HCs). Discussion: We present the challenges encountered during this international collaborative project, including coordination, data management, funding constraints, language barriers, and authorship concerns, while highlighting the measures taken to address them. Conclusion: Collaborative virtual models offer a dynamic new frontier in medical research and are vital to studying rare diseases. The COVAD study demonstrates the potential of online platforms for conducting large-scale, patient-focused research and underscores the importance of integrating patient perspective into clinical care. Care of patients is our central motivation, and it is essential to recognize their voices as equal stakeholders and valued partners in the study of the conditions that affect them
