Camilan akar kelapa merupakan makanan ringan yang diproduksi oleh UD. Angsa Dua sejak tahun 1995. Produk camilan ini perlu mendapat perhatian terutama berhubungan dengan kemasannya, dikarenakan selama ini kemasan yang digunakan kurang menarik, sehingga berpengaruh terhadap nilai jual.  Penelitian ini bertujuan merancang kemasan camilan akar kelapa untuk meningkatkan daya tarik konsumen yang nantinya akan berdampak kepada pertambahan nilai jual.  Metode yang digunakan dalam rancangan kemasan adalah value engineering dan analytical hierarchy process (AHP). Metode value engineering diterapkan pada perbaikan nilai, performansi dan biaya dari desain kemasan dengan kriteria: merek dagang, ukuran berat bersih, identitas produk, menarik, kesesuaian warna, tipografi dan ukuran huruf. Metode analytical hierarchy process (AHP) diterapkan pada fase analisis untuk membantu mengetahui prioritas dari kriteria yang sesuai dengan keinginan konsumen. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan desain alternatif dengan nilai performansi tertinggi adalah alternatif 1 (A-B-D-F), yaitu desain dengan material kemasan terbuat dari aluminium foil standing pouch, menggunakan stiker cromo, warna yang digunakan bernuansa terang dan menggunakan huruf yang sesuai. Desain alternatif yang terpilih ini memiliki nilai (value) sebesar 0,1568. Nilai ini diperoleh dari performansi sebesar 41,7 dan biaya untuk ukuran ¼ kg Rp.3.100 per kemasan, biaya untuk ukuran ½ kg Rp.3.600 per kemasan dan biaya untuk ukuran 1 kg Rp.400 perkemasan.

The Canadian construction industry has sustained a healthy growth rate over the last 10 years. This could make the Canadian market attractive to foreign competitors. Moreover, Canadian companies possess enough expertise and resources to be able to effectively compete in the global market. This highlights the increased importance of developing marketing strategies for Canadian companies. This research study provides an understanding of how Toronto construction companies evaluate market attractiveness and company competitiveness. Such evaluation is the first step towards building effective marketing strategies. The research included an analysis of the main indicators of the Toronto market over the last 10 years and one-on-one interviews with 39 experts. The research deployed the analytical hierarchy process to identify the most important factors that can be used for measuring company competitiveness and market attractiveness. The most important factors that influence company competitiveness include customer satisfaction, cost efficiency, and safety record. Factors with the highest impact on market attractiveness are sustainable profitability (return on investment), supply of finance, and overall economic conditions.Key words: construction marketing, company competitiveness, market attractiveness, strategic planning, analytical hierarchy process.

One of the products that need attention, especially related to packaging, is the Talang Salted Fish product, which has been selling Talang Salted Fish without using packaging. So that this study aims to design the packaging of talang salted fish to add selling value which can later be an attraction for consumers to buy it. The method used is value engineering and the analytical hierarchy process (AHP). The value engineering method is applied to increase the value, performance, and cost of packaging design consisting of brand criteria, net weight measurement, product identity, attractiveness, color suitability, typography, and font size. The Analytical Hierarchy Process  method is applied at the analysis stage to help determine the priority criteria in accordance with the wishes of consumers. The results showed that the alternative design with the highest performance value was alternative 1 (A-B-D-E), namely the design with packaging materials made of transparent plastic, the colors used were bright, the packaging was rectangular and all capital letters were used. This selected alternative design has a value of 0.039. This value is obtained from the performance of 38.9 and the cost of Rp. 1000 per pack.

The late payment has been the major issues facing the construction industry across the globe. Many studies have looked at this issues from management and legal perspectives. Despite its endemic effect on the construction industry, there is no any assessment tools for measuring the payment performance (late and prompt payment). This paper developed and validated a payment performance assessment tool in the context of construction industry client organization, particularly in the Nigerian construction industry. The tool was developed based on the organizational culture and payment performance attributes for the client organization. Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) was used to elicit pair-wise comparison and weight of each variable. This led to the development of the tool. The tool was then validated in the assessment of client’s payment performance of a case organization. The assessment tool was calibrated based on consensus benchmarking. However, the calibration ranges from 0.00-0.69 as late payment performance, 0.70-0.98 prompt payment performance and 0.99-1.00. Absolute prompt payment performance. The result shows that the payment assessment tool succeeded in measuring payment performance of a case organization with a score of 0.50 points indicating that the organization do not pay its contractors on time. Therefore, the organization is experiencing late payment. However, there is need to replication the study to revalidate the tool in another organization or country.

This paper examines the concept of innovation management in the construction industry by studying the major components of the innovation process such as the major drivers of innovation, barriers and obstacles that prevent innovation, the enablers that motivate innovation, the practices of innovation, and the benefits of innovation both at project and company level. This paper is based on the data collected by means of structured questionnaires and analyzed throughsurvey analysis. The survey, which consisted of 46 factors involved in the innovation process, was distributed to 121 different participants, and the collected data were analyzed by the relative importance index (RII), as well as the analytical hierarchy process (AHP). The RII rankings feed the AHP analysis as the first step to rank the factors. Later, the factors are ranked according to the AHP analysis. Based on these rankings, recommendations are made to contractors, consultants, project management professionals, owners and suppliers.

Salah satu produk yang perlu mendapat perhatian adalah produk peci yang semakin hari penjualannya semakin menurun. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk merancang pengembangan produk peci dan menghemat biaya produksi serta menambah nilai jual yang nantinya dapat menjadi daya tarik konsumen untuk membelinya. Metode yang digunakan adalah Value Engineering dan Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). Metode Value Engineering diterapkan pada perbaikan nilai, performansi dan biaya dari rancangan peci yang terdiri dari identitas produk, ukuran border,tambahan fungsi, warna sesuai dan menarik. Metode Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) diterapkan pada fase analisis untuk membantu mengetahui prioritas dari kriteria yang sesuai dengan keinginan konsumen. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan desain alternatif dengan nilai performansi tertinggi adalah alternatif 1 (A-B-D-E), yaitu desain dengan material utama peci terbuat dari karton ubi dan kain beludru, warna yang digunakan bernuansa gelap, peci berbentuk persegi panjang, dan dengan hiasan semi bordir. Desain alternatif terpilih ini menghabiskan biaya sebesar 20,310,00 untuk satu unit peci.
