Abstract

Reliable provision of clean water is is a major challenge in managing public infrastructure, particularly in areas with rapid population growth and complex geography. One of the clean water service unit in Padang Sidempuan City faces obstacles in water transmission and distribution, including pipe damage due to aging infrastructure, non-standard materials, ineffective gravity-based systems, and limited raw water sources. This study aims to identify and analyze these inhibiting factors using the Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) method. Data were collected through field observations, interviews with technical personnel, and review of operational documents, then analyzed by calculating the Risk Priority Number (RPN) to determine repair priorities. The findings reveal the highest RPN of 720, in areas with elevation issues, where gravity flow fails to maintain sufficient pressure posing the greatest operational risk. The second most critical issue involves failure of water flow due to elevation and inadequate pressurization, with an RPN of 630, highlighting the gravity system’s limitations. Pipe damage, mainly from high internal pressure and poor maintenance, scored an RPN of 560, marking it as another high-priority issue. Based on these findings, this study recommends upgrading the system by installing mechanical pressure devices (booster pumps), replacing pipes with standard-compliant materials, and exploring alternative water sources These improvements are essential for reducing system vulnerability and improving service reliability. The results underscore that applying FMEA systematically is a practical approach for prioritizing technical interventions and enhancing the overall performance of regional clean water supply systems.

Abstract

This research was conducted in several family companies based in North Sumatra due to the presence of numerous private radio companies that can only manage their businesses for one to two generations. In this study, the variables of interest and successor readiness were used in the process of leadership succession in the researched private radio companies. The research was carried out descriptively using descriptive analysis, which was conducted through in-depth interviews. The research findings show that the interest of successors significantly influences the readiness of successors to take over leadership in private radio companies. Many private radio companies have not yet begun the succession process due to the interests of prospective successors. In order to improve their preparedness, successors often engage in capacity-building through various means, whether methodical or not. This shows the situation of many private radio companies that can only survive for one to two generations.

Abstract

The background to this research is counterproductive work behavior found at BBPPTP Medan and indications of organizational injustice. This research discusses the influence of organizational justice which includes distributive, procedural and interactional justice on counterproductive work behavior. Quantitative methods are used in this research to test and analyze the influence of distributive justice, procedural justice and interactional justice on counterproductive work behavior. Responses from respondents were collected through distributing questionnaires using a random sampling method and using a sample of 40 respondents. Hypothesis testing uses multiple linear analysis techniques with the help of SPSS 22 software. The research results show that distributive justice has a negative and significant effect with a significance level (0.00 greater than 0.05), procedural justice has no significant effect on counterproductive work behavior with a significance level (0.272 greater than 0.05) and interactional justice has a positive and significant effect on counterproductive work behavior with a significance level of (0.005 less than 0.05). This shows that the higher the level of distributive justice received by employees, the level of counterproductive work behavior will decrease, the higher the interactional justice, the more counterproductive work behavior will increase. This research provides important implications for agencies to minimize counterproductive work behavior by paying attention to organizational justice, especially distributive justice and implementing procedural justice according to applicable regulations.

Abstract

Safety culture is a concept defined at a group level or higher that refers to the shared values ​​between all groups or companies, corporations, or organizational members. Safety culture relates to formal safety issues within an organization and is closely related to, but not limited to, management and supervision systems. A safety culture emphasizes the contributions of everyone at every level of the organization. In business entities this impacts the behavior of all workforce members in the workplace which is usually reflected in the relationship between reward systems and safety performance. This research examines how much regulatory factors and management commitment can influence the implementation of safety culture, as well as what strategy suggestions can be made to improve safety culture. The research was conducted within the PT. Wijaya Karya (Persero) Tbk Operations Department 1 Sumatra Region using the Explanatory Sequential Design method or known as the two-phase method where quantitative data as the first phase is used as a base and qualitative data as the second phase for supporting, or in other words the quantitative approach is the main priority which is supported by a qualitative approach (Sinulingga, 2021), Qualitative research using Likert questionnaires was carried out on 44 employees from various positions, as well as qualitative interviews as support for the 4 selected employees. From the research results, it was found that regulations and management commitment have an important influence on safety culture, both partially and jointly. This strategy can work well if management has a full commitment to making safety culture part of the company culture. Without this, inconsistencies and tolerance for deviations will arise, which if left unchecked will hamper or possibly thwart the process of creating the expected safety culture.

Abstract

The Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) is one of the basic combinatorial optimization problems that takes a central place in the sphere of logistics, transportation, and supply-chain management. A systematic literature review (SLR) of VRP scholarship dated 2000 to 2025 is conducted herein, where over 500,000 publications are analyzed to carry out the study of VRP solutions evolution and methodological advancements as well as their practical use. The results highlight the current popularity of metaheuristic algorithms, such as Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), Genetic Algorithms (GA), and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), in solving complex variants of VRP, in particular, the Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP) and the Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows (VRPTW). The combination of real-time data streams, machine-learning methods and adaptive algorithms represents a revolutionary track, and helps to develop more active and responsive VRP models. Moreover, increased attention to sustainability and green logistics has triggered the development of the eco-efficient VRP models, which combine the use of electric vehicles (EVs) and energy-consumption optimization. The spread of autonomous vehicles presents new opportunities and threats to future VRP solutions, particularly in the area of urban freight and last-mile delivery. In conclusion, the review outlines future streams of research, highlighting the need to find adaptive, sustainable, and autonomous VRP models that can resolve the growing complexities in the modern world of logistics.
