Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of shipping cost efficiency and freight forwarder quality on export delivery performance at PT Sinar Sawit Sentosa, a palm oil exporting company facing challenges related to rising logistics costs and increasing demands for delivery timeliness. The research problem focuses on the extent to which shipping cost efficiency and the quality of freight forwarder services can improve export delivery performance in a measurable and sustainable manner. A quantitative approach was applied by collecting survey data from the company’s logistics managers and export managers to capture perceptions and experiences related to the research variables. Data analysis was conducted using structural equation modeling to examine the causal relationships among shipping cost efficiency, freight forwarder quality, and export delivery performance. The results indicate that shipping cost efficiency has a positive and significant effect on export delivery performance through reduced operational costs, improved logistics coordination, and smoother export processes. Freight forwarder quality is also proven to have a positive and significant effect through enhanced service reliability, documentation accuracy, and delivery timeliness. The conclusion confirms that the combination of cost efficiency and logistics service quality constitutes a strategic factor determining the success of corporate export delivery. The novelty of this study lies in integrating the measurement of cost efficiency and freight forwarder quality using a SEM approach applied to the Indonesian palm oil export industry, a context that has received limited empirical attention. This contribution provides empirical evidence for the development of export logistics management and strategic decision-making, enriches the academic logistics literature, and offers practical implications for improving national export competitiveness, formulating corporate policies, and managing long-term logistics partnerships based on measurable performance and efficiency orientation. The findings are expected to serve as a reference for future research and professional practice in agribusiness sectors oriented toward global markets with high logistics risks and intense competition that demand continuous, data-driven managerial innovation grounded in reliable and context-specific empirical evidence for the future of national industries.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of motivation and competence on employee performance directly and indirectly through job satisfaction as a mediating variable at the Cidadap Subdistrict Office in Bandung City. The research employs a quantitative approach and utilizes survey data collected from 52 employees through structured questionnaires measured on a Likert scale. Data analysis is conducted using Structural Equation Modeling with Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) to evaluate measurement validity, reliability, and the hypothesized relationships. The findings reveal that motivation significantly affects employee performance both directly and through job satisfaction. Competence influences job satisfaction positively and substantially but does not have a direct significant impact on performance. Job satisfaction serves as a critical mediator enhancing the relationship between motivation and competence toward performance. The results highlight that fostering motivation and developing competence with supportive job satisfaction mechanisms are essential strategies for improving employee outcomes in public sector institutions. This research provides practical implications for management in promoting effective human resource development and enhancing service quality in local government offices.
