Measuring line efficiency and productivity are very important to do to find out in which level the efficiency and productivity of the business process has been carried out by the company. This paper aims to determine line efficiency analysis and provide suggestions for improvements to increase line efficiency at the finishing department of PT Pura Nusapersada. Measurement of line efficiency in the finishing department of PT Pura Nusapersada paper mill unit 7 has not yet reached the company's line efficiency value target. The initial line efficiency assessment obtained a percentage of 65.14% while the company's target was 70%. In this paper, a fishbone diagram is used to determine the root cause of the problem. Based on the research results, it was found that the most dominant cause of the problem was the inefficient work elements at the cutter, sorting, pollar, and packing work stations. Improvements were made using the eliminate, combine, re-arrange, and simplify (ECRS) method and the results of the line efficiency improvements in the finishing department increased to 71.90% and the company's target can be met.

The purpose of this paper is to develop an approach to analyse and evaluate continuity in Service Supply Chain (SSC), through a case study. This approach is based on the data-driven quality strategy "Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control" (DMAIC) which is used to drive Six Sigma projects, and on the characteristics of Smart Supply Chain. It combines Business process management (BPM), Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR), and the Root cause analysis tree diagram. The chosen case study is the electricity SCC, especially the business process 'management of electricity for residential buildings' of the Moroccan electricity SSC. The paper shows that the suggested approach identifies the discontinuity causes for the studied SSC, improves the business process behavior and manages its control by providing a dashboard that encompasses KPIs for periodically controlling of the SSC "to-be" state.

Root cause analysis techniques are an excellent choice for identifying the root causes of cost deviation in Iraqi construction projects. Many root cause analysis tools, such as the Fishbone diagram (FD), Pareto diagram (PD), and 5-Why analysis, have started to emerge from the literature as standard guidelines for identifying root causes. This study identified eighteen causes of cost deviation in construction projects, which they classified into three major groups (planning causes, designing causes, and execution causes). Pareto study indicates that twelve causes out of eighteen represent the most significant causes of cost deviation. After that, these eleven causes were filtered by 5-Why analysis, which concluded that insufficient project information and the implementation method is not appropriate with the project type are root causes for the planning group, while unclear owner requirements and changes in design are root causes for the designing causes group, Finally, changes in orders is a root cause for execution group.

Food processing industry (FPI) is at a nascent stage and is tagged as a sunshine industry. The efficiency and productivity of the inputs for the aforesaid industries have to be measured to not only find out if the potential is achieved or not, but also to identify the grey areas. Against such a backdrop, it is obvious that industries like FPI would grow and become the subject matter for further investigation. The research revealed that the majority of cases have been consistent with the real facts and the underlying principles, and the structure of the economy provide valid reasons for it. However, in some cases, the results have not been consistent with the movement of the economy and there are no valid economic reasons for the performance of the state.

Purpose – Petrochemical projects play a very important role in the economic development of Vietnam. For the past ten years, many large-scale petrochemical plants have been developed using the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) project delivery system for completing the project faster. However, many projects have suffered from schedule delays. In order to solve the delay problem, a clear understanding of the EPC business model and its delays problems are studied in this research. A qualitative research method by using case study on selected EPC projects was adopted. This paper aims to define the current business models used in the Vietnamese petrochemical industry and explores the root cause of delays. Design/methodology/approach – The research methodology used in this study is multiple case studies by purposive sampling on EPC projects. This is chosen due to the limited number of EPC projects in petrochemical in Vietnam and to obtain schedule delay factors from both delayed and on-time projects. In this purposive sampling, the researcher decided on what needs to know and sets out to find the people who can and are willing to share their information. From each project, project manager and project engineer were interviewed to understand the delay factors in their EPC projects. Data from the interview were analyzed by using “pattern coding” described by Miles and Huberman. Then, cross-case analysis was used to identify the common and unique factors occurring in each case. By comparing the three cases, the authors can identify the delay factors in EPC petrochemical in Vietnam. Findings – By interviewing the management level officers in three cases and performing exploratory work on the secondary data, it was observed that the local and foreign contractors of EPC projects in Vietnam have generally similar business process. Then, the codes were grounded based on the EPC business process, and subjected to the cross-case analysis. The root cause of problems in each phase was provided. Originality/value – The paper fulfills an identified root cause of EPC projects in Vietnam.

The Virtual Organisation and Enterprise Modelling have become important topics starting with the mid 1990’s. This relevance comes from the positive combined effects expected by a business process reengineering and the particularities of the virtual organizations that fit very well to market challenges. A more advanced specialization, often found in the virtual organisations, gives a plus in terms of efficiency and productivity by an optimized business process. A particular well developed domain, for such type of organisations, is the informational system that can be seen as foundation for the business process reengineering. The paper presents relevant data and results for organisation architecture modelling. The architecture referred herein apply to enterprise and virtual organisation too, meaning that the improvements obtained by applying the business process reengineering for enterprise, can be foreseen, even with amplified effects, in the case of a virtual organisation.

Combining economic performance with environmental and social concern has been a developing topic in recent decades. Eco-efficiency analysis is a widely applied tool to assess the efficiency of agricultural systems, while increasingly considering their environmental and social impact. The main objective of this article is to accomplish a literature review on the application of eco-efficiency analysis in agricultural systems, focusing on methods and indicators that are most regarded for the quantitative assessment of agricultural eco-efficiency. The literature review found two main methods most widely applied to assess eco-efficiency: Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), which are often combined. LCA is generally focused on the assessment of the environmental impacts of products and practices. DEA is mostly used to measure the eco-efficiency of decision-making units, such as farms, regions, or countries, and has no subjective focus on neither technical nor environmental performance. Both methods share a wide range of economic and environmental indicators but fail to incorporate the social dimension of sustainability into the eco-efficiency analysis. A simple framework, based on Data Envelopment Analysis, is offered to assess the eco-efficiency of the Brazilian agriculture, aiming at identifying the benefits and limitations of the analysis.

The Mining Industry is one of the pillars of national economic development. In this industry, heavy equipment plays an important role in the coal mining process in Indonesia. By using heavy equipment must be well structured, so that the project can run easily without any obstacles. This research aimed to evaluate the cause of the low-value OEE of the Excavator Hitachi EX2500-6 of EX157 and EX158 units and determine the way to repair so that the equipment performance can be improved. This research uses descriptive quantitative approach with value analysis methods Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE). The result of OEE values were analyzed using losses classification method so that the occurrence of loss factors can be found and root cause analysis performance using a causal diagram/fishbone diagram and then make any improvement recommendations that can be done by using 5W1H analysis. Based on the research results, the OEE values of two excavators were calculated and were compared with the benchmark values. The values of OEE were found to be 84% for EX157 units and 68% for EX158 units. The low value of OEE on EX158 caused by unscheduled maintenance time losses amounting to 1188.3 hours. The high of time loss is influenced by trouble on Machine Frame, Structure, Body, and Cab components amounted to 60.9%. The root causes of the losses derived from the availability of external mechanics, the competence of mechanics, the availability of spare parts, and the implementation of condition monitoring was not optimal. While remedial steps can be taken by giving technical training program for mechanics as maintenance practice methodology.

 ABSTRAKDischarge planning merupakan suatu proses yang kompleks yang bertujuan untuk menyiapkan pasien dalam masa transisi di rumah sakit sampai pasien tersebut kembali ke rumahnya, dimana pelaksanannya harus dibuat sejak awal pasien datang ke pelayanan kesehatan. Pelaksanaan discharge planning  di rumah sakit dilakukan sebelum pasien pulang, atau sebelum pasien keluar dari unit layanan Pengamatan yang dilakukan penulis terhadap pelaksanaan discharge planning di ruang ICU, perawat lebih mengutamakan memperhatikan kondisi kritis pasien, sehingga melupakan pelaksanaan discharge planning.  Tujuan tulisan ini adalah melakukan analisis terhadap pelaksanaan discharge planning  di ruang ICU RS X Jakarta. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode analisis dengan menggunakan fishbone dengan asesmen yang dilakukan berupa observasi, wawancara dan pengumpulan data sekunder yang sudah ada di RS X Jakarta, setelah itu dilakukan pencarian literatur untuk  mengidentifikasi akar masalahnya, sehingga bisa diusulkan rekomendasi untuk penyelesaian terhadap masalah tersebut. Dari hasil analisis ditemukan akar masalah yaitu pengetahuan perawat yang kurang tentang discharge planning dan  kurang optimalnya sistem yang mendukung pelaksanaan discharge planning seperti format, SPO dan panduan. Rekomendasi yang di usulkan yaitu berupa perbaikan format discharge planning, revisi SPO, pembuatan panduan dan pelaksanaan pelatihan discharge planning.ABSTRACTDischarge planning is a complex process that aims to prepare patients in the transition period in the hospital until the patient returns to his home, where the implementation must be made from the beginning the patient comes to the health service. However, discharge planning was done before the patient returns, or before the patient left the service unit in Hospital. In the ICU room with critical patient conditions, nurses prioritize paying attention to the critical condition of the patient, thus forgetting the implementation of this discharge planning. For this reason, this paper aimed to analyze the implementation of discharge planning in the ICU of Jakarta X Hospital, literature study to identify the root of the problem, so that recommendations can be proposed to resolve the problem. The method was used an analysis using fishbone diagram with an assessment conducted in the observation form. Interview and secondary data collection from Jakarta X Hospital. Based on the analysis results, the root cause of the problem is knowledge of nurses who are less about discharge planning and less optimal systems that support the implementation of discharge planning such as format, SPO and guidelines. For this reason, recommendations for improvements were made in the form of redesigning the format of discharge planning, revision of SPO, making guidelines and implementing discharge planning training

UKM Kerupuk Acoy is a small and medium business engaged in the production of kerupuk and kemplang which has been established since 2012. After conducting interviews it was found that there were internal problems caused by a decrease in productivity, namely the use of resources that were not yet efficient so that although there was an increase in sales but the benefits are not maximized. To overcome this, it is necessary to apply the APC method to see which inputs have an index below 100% so that improvements are needed to increase productivity. The results of data processing showed a decrease in productivity levels material, energy, and capital inputs. Using fishbone diagram analysis, the root cause of the problem was found, namely low material productivity due to waste of raw materials for flour and cooking oil as well as too dense kerupuk dough form and making kemplang dough rolls too large, low energy productivity due to gas waste due to infrequent cleaning of stove fires, and low productivity. capital because the amount of working capital used is not proportional to the output produced. The solutions to increase productivity that have been implemented are cleaning the stove fire after use, reducing working capital, reducing the size of the cracker print and the diameter of the kemplang rolls, and paying attention to the use of flour and cooking oil so as not to spill on the floor. After implementation, there was an increase in the productivity of material, energy, and capital inputs respectively by 6.28252%; 6.28278%; and 0.05713% which causes an increase in output productivity of 6.283%.
