In a conventional view, customers just purchase the goods or services created by companies. But the role of customers has changed. Now customers are seeking to practice their influence in every part of the business system as a co-creator. What is co-creation? Is it like customization? The answer is yes and no. The difference between co-creation and customization depends on the degree of involvement of the customer in the business. Generally, the customer plays a much more active role in co-creation than customization. Co-creation refers to almost every part of a business, but customization is restricted to the end stage of production. Co-creation can happen in the process of sales support, which can ultimately improve sales performance. This paper illustrates the relationships among co-creation, sales support and sales performance, and designs an experiment to test.

Purpose -This study empirically investigates the function of Shariah Supervisory Board (SSB) in legitimizing the social and ethical existence of Sudanese banks through the dissemination of data onIslamic social in annual reports. Design/methodology/approach -The paper examines a panel dataset covering the period 2006 – 2015 through the use of disclosure index and content analysis from 150annual reports of Sudanese banks. The role of SSB is expressed from the aspects of Corporate Governance mechanisms (i.e. board size, independency, doctoral qualification, cross- directorship, and the overall effect of SSB mechanisms).The current study employs the multiple regression models by using STATA-13 statistical toolin answering the research questions. Findings -The empirical results indicate that the board size, doctoral qualification, and cross-directorship of the members were positively correlatedwith the disclosure degree of Islamic Corporate Social Responsibility (ICSR) in the annual reports of Sudanese Islamic banks, which is in favour of legitimacy theory. Meanwhile, results indicate that, in contrary to legitimacytheory’s assumptions,the independence of SSB members is found to negatively correlate with the ICSR level of disclosure of the sampled Sudanese banks’ annual reports. Furthermore, the overall effects of SSB mechanisms are found to positivelyimpact the ICSR disclosure level. The study’sfindings add new empirical evidence to support the view that social information disclosure by companies is influenced by country- cultural context within which the company operates. Theoretical implication - In theory, this paper offers an analysis on CSR in Sudan from Islamic point of view. This paper is vital in view that social responsibility is highly regarded by Islam. Therefore, social responsibility must be adopted by all Islamic organizations, particularly the Islamic banks. Originality/value – From the researchers’ perspective, this study is the pioneer thatinvestigates the role of SSB on Sudanese Islamic banks through social responsibility reporting using legitimacy theory.

Increasingly rapid economic development resulted in many new companies springing up and creating a tight business competition. To be able to maintain business continuity, companies must be able to make a careful planning and control of the costs. Planning and control can be realized with the budget as a mean of control. Controlling costs by the company are intended to enable companies to minimize costs. At minimal costs the company will be able to achieve the profit target by more optimal as primary destinations in general. In connection to this, the purpose of this study was to determine the costs of the company budget preparation, budget realization costs and revenues, as well as the role of the budget as a mean of control in achieving its profit target. The research was conducted at PT ABC located in Bogor. PT ABC is one of the private companies engaged in construction services focusing on building the types of housing. This kind of development focus includes the construction of a building without infrastructure development. The study of PT ABC shows that the preparation of the company's budget is based on field survey and accompanying informations on the revenue budget and previous projects. In the implementation of the work there was an increase in the actual cost, thus resulting difference in the budget and actual costs. The occurrence of this difference will reduce the company’s profits. Overall budgets have created optimal control of the realization of the costs incurred. Budget serves as guidelines and benchmarks maximum value in any cost incurred by the company. However, in the implementation of the work there are still some shortcomings, resulting cost difference persists. This difference occurs because lack of oversight of the usage of raw materials. Companies must be able to improve control over the using of raw materials to be better coordinated. Increased control is evidenced by the increase in its profit target achievement on the next project. In the subsequent project, company managed to improve the performance of surveillance so that the difference in costs declined and its optimal profit target can be achieved.

The Catholic University of Bolivia undertook an experience to develop profesional competencies in students of Operations research and to position the tools of this specialty to help improve the management of private companies. The paper presents the implementation of a new methodology (Project Based Learning) for teaching the subject of Operations Research to a group of students from different fields at a national context during a period of 5 years. Students must perform a project on  small companies in order to gain the competences related to the course of Operational Research. The paper analyzes the change of methods (from traditional ones based on the passive role of students to a participative model where student applies their knowledge to their daily activity)  teaching mathematics in Bolivia. The company representatives play an active role monitoring and assessing the implementation process. The evaluation of the students shows that the competency has been developed to the expected level and Operations research has now a place in the management of small companies.
