Multiple Team Membership

The number of activities in construction projects is increasing where the pace of development follows the development of rising funds with shorter time constraints. As a result, businesses have reacted by allocating people to numerous teams simultaneously. The purpose of this study is to explore the implementation of multiple team membership and the performance of workers as individuals and teams in the construction industry, especially in DKI Jakarta. In addition, this study also explores the appropriate approach to use so that projects carried out using MTM can run smoothly. This research employed qualitative research with a case study approach also used a structured interview method with purposive sampling of 20 workers. The location is in the construction industry in DKI Jakarta. It was found that the implementation of MTM on employees with higher positions provided more benefits than employees with lower positions. The benefits for higher employees are getting paid more, more insight, more relationships, and bids for future projects. Meanwhile, employees in lower positions only get broader insights. In addition, it was also found that the appropriate approach to use so that MTM projects can run smoothly is to improve multitasking abilities and manage schedules and strategies.

Knowledge management has largely been considered from the perspective of internal generation. It is posed that external provision will increase due to the diversity of problems and scarce resources, the arising issues being explored through a case study. The aim is to explore this process for construction projects. It will be shown that the successful delivery of knowledge services for the construction industry depends upon the way in which the provider conducts its marketing and the operation of gatekeepers in the project organisation. These issues are explored in relation to the main concepts and theories, applying and evaluating these through the case study approach.

Carbon estimating plays a vital role in the construction industry. The current focus on introducing zero-carbon construction projects reduces operational carbon, at the expense of Embodied Carbon (EC). However, it is important to reduce overall net carbon emissions. There are various methods to estimate carbon, but the accuracy of these estimates is questionable. This paper reviews a novel methodology, the Supply Chain based Embodied carbon Estimating Method (SCEEM), which was introduced recently to accurately estimate EC in construction supply chains. SCEEM is compared against existing EC estimating methods (Blackbook and eToolLCD) using a case study approach. It is also supplemented with a comprehensive literature review of existing EC methods. The EC values calculated using Blackbook and eToolLCD were mostly higher than SCEEM. Since SCEEM uses actual site data and considers first principles-based value addition method to estimate EC, it is considered accurate. The cross-case analysis revealed that SCEEM provided consistent results. Hence, SCEEM is recommended to accurately estimate EC of any type of project.

The aim of this research is to find out how the teaching factory at SMK SMTI Yogyakarta handled during pandemic covid 19. A descriptive qualitative case study approach was used as the method. Semi-structured interview techniques, observation, and documentation were used to collect data. The interviewed data was collected from 3 informants. This study used triangulation techniques to check the validity of the data. The triangulation technique in this study used source triangulation, which compares the interview results of 3 informants to check the compatibility of the information obtained,  then analyzed using an interactive model from Milles and Huberman. The implementation of the teaching factory at SMK SMTI Yogyakarta is solely to improve student competence so that students can adapt and become accustomed to conditions in the real industrial world, under the teaching factory’s objectives. Schools continue to work with the industry on the implementation of the teaching factory in order to achieve the teaching factory’s goals, and SOP (Standard Operational Procedure) is tailored to SOP from industries related to established health protocols.

Study Approach

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to enhance the understanding of the application of process improvement techniques (PITs) in the business process outsourcing (BPO) process. The paper focuses on how PITs impact the BPO process, and identifies a number of key enablers of applying PITs in the BPO process. Design/methodology/approach – The paper employs a case study approach. In-depth case study analysis of a number of organisations that have employed a number of PITs in BPO is carried out. Findings – The findings support current literature that highlights the importance of formal contracting, relational contracting, and vendor capabilities for applying PITs in BPO. However, the findings also highlight the importance of additional factors, not widely considered in the current literature. The client must possess internal capabilities in PITs and change management to ensure process improvement occurs. Moreover, the findings here have shown that the client must invest in and develop the resources that enhance its capability to employ PITs in BPO. Originality/value – The findings highlight the importance and relevance of process improvement to BPO, and identify a number of important issues for further research in order to bridge the gap between these two complementary areas.

This paper contributes to the understating of tornadoes in South Africa using case study analysis. In South Africa tornadoes are the recurring phenomenon (the climatology) but so far they have received less attention. Damages from storms itself (tornadoes inclusive) are significant in South Africa relative to other weather-related disasters for example floods, heat waves, and droughts. For their understanding, a case study approach was adopted in the current study. Data were in courtesy of the following, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Centers for Environmental Predictions (NCEP), Eumetsat Germany, and South African Weather Service (SAWS). The aim of the study was to provide an overview of the occurrence of tornadoes in South Africa using a Klerksdorp tornado, which occurred on March 4, 2007, Northwest Province in South Africa. From the case study analysis, the tornado was associated with the cold front and cut-off low (both are extratropical circulation) which were the dominant weather systems of the day. Therefore we conclude that, a case study approach may be the best way to study events of these nature for a more informed decision, for example, issuing an early warning system.  In future, case studies, for example, involving interaction between extratropical and tropical circulation will also be an interesting study.
