Abstract

This study investigates Indonesian consumer behavior towards sustainable fashion consumption, particularly focusing on thrift shopping, using the SHIFT framework (Social Influence, Habit Formation, Individual Self, Feelings and Cognition, and Tangibility). A cross-sectional, quantitative approach was employed, collecting data from 155 respondents through online surveys and social media discussions. The study used binary logistic regression to assess the impact of factors such as age, income, shopping preferences, and the use of TikTok for gathering information about thrifting. Results revealed that only the use of TikTok significantly influences thrifting intentions, while other factors like age, income, and shopping methods were not significant. Additionally, social media discussions reflected strong public disagreement (96.9%) with the government's 2023 ban on imported second-hand clothing, with most respondents engaged in thrifting for its economic and environmental benefits. The study concludes that social influence, particularly through platforms like TikTok, plays a vital role in promoting sustainable consumption practices in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study analyzes the goods receipt process performance at a semiconductor manufacturing company facing issues with process failures and inaccurate goods handovers, resulting in significant losses. Also, the company has never applied a comprehensive and structured performance measurement method to the goods receipt process. Using Performance Prism and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) methods, 23 Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) were identified from three stakeholder groups: internal customers, receiving staff, and suppliers, categorized into five Performance Prism perspectives. Data collected through interviews was analyzed using Objective Matrix (OMAX) and Traffic Light System (TLS). Results show the current goods receipt process performance is in the yellow category, with a value of 3.66 and a score of 6, indicating adequate but improvable performance. The semiconductor manufacturing company needs to focus on enhancing KPIs in the yellow and red categories to achieve optimal performance. Recommendations include conducting periodic evaluations and improving communication systems between stakeholders to address these performance issues and minimize losses.

Abstract

Currently, the need for an internet connection is increasing due to the human need for information and communication that can be obtained through the internet. A decision support system with criteria is needed to solve the challenge of choosing an internet package with many components or criteria that must be evaluated. Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) are two multi-criteria decision support system techniques, but they use different measurement techniques. This research aims to identify the best Internet Service Provider by applying the Simple Additive Weight (SAW) and Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) techniques. The objects used in this research are the providers Indihome, Biznet, and Solnet. The weight of each criterion is determined using the AHP technique, and the best suppliers are ranked using the SAW approach. The sampling technique used in this research was Purposive Sampling. In this study, the ranking results of 100 respondents showed that the ranking for the AHP method was 60% and for the SAW method was 92%. Thus, global calculations using the AHP and SAW methods were obtained for the best alternative ISP, namely Indihome.

Abstract

Sagala Tofu and Tempeh MSMEs face challenges in selecting soybean suppliers due to inconsistencies in price, quality, and delivery reliability, which impact production and market demand fulfillment. Sagala Tofu and Tempe MSME is one of the MSMEs that requires 100–150 kg of soybeans daily. This research aims to help Sagala Tofu and Tempe MSME identify the correct standards (priority criteria/sub-criteria) for making decisions regarding soybean raw materials and to determine the best soybean supplier. The research method used is the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). The results show that the priority criterion is quality (0.469), followed by price (0.230), quantity accuracy (0.159), delivery (0.102), and customer care (0.038). Based on these supplier selection criteria, supplier X was rated the best, with a score of 0.420, followed by supplier Z (0.340) and supplier Y (0.240).

Abstract

This study examines the relationships between export orientation, social capital, strategic competitiveness, and export performance within the context of firms operating in international markets. Utilizing a theoretical framework based on the Resource-Based View (RBV) and Cadogan's epistemology, the research explores the role of social capital as an intangible resource that can enhance export performance and the contribution of export orientation as a driver of strategic competitiveness. The analysis results reveal a significant impact of export orientation on strategic competitiveness (P-Value 0.000), yet it does not demonstrate a direct significant effect on export performance (P-Value 0.139). Conversely, social capital has a highly significant impact on export performance (P-Value 0.000) and export orientation (P-Value 0.000), but it does not significantly influence strategic competitiveness (P-Value 0.249). Furthermore, strategic competitiveness significantly affects export performance (P-Value 0.000). These findings suggest that while both export orientation and social capital play vital roles in enhancing export performance, firms must develop robust strategic competitiveness to achieve success in the global market. This research provides insights into the importance of integrating social resources, export orientation, and competitive strategies to achieve optimal export performance.

Abstract

This research examines the relationship between job autonomy, feedback, empowering leadership, and innovative work behavior, with resilience as a mediator. Job autonomy refers to employees' freedom in performing tasks, while feedback provides performance-related information. Empowering leadership encourages employees to take initiative and make independent decisions. A quantitative approach was used, and data was collected through questionnaires from employees with over one year of experience in manufacturing and shipyard companies in Batam. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analyzed direct and mediating relationships. Findings indicate that job autonomy and feedback significantly enhance innovative work behavior while empowering leadership has a positive but insignificant effect. Resilience mediates these relationships, meaning employees with autonomy, constructive feedback, and empowering leaders are more innovative, especially if they have high resilience. This study offers practical insights for organizations to foster innovation by enhancing job autonomy, providing effective feedback, implementing empowering leadership, and strengthening employee resilience programs.
