Abstract

PT Snack Sehat is a manufacturing company that produces healthy snacks and beverages in Indonesia. Its IT division has a software department that manages all creation and maintenance of information system projects. Although the software department planned and monitored project development thoroughly during their work, 42% of projects were late in 2020. Those late projects' costs led to financial loss and kept rising through 2020-2021. Digitalization is how technologies affect several aspects of life, like social interactions, business operations, and how people work. Digitalization improved and sped up knowledge-sharing processes within the organization. Since knowledge sharing is done more frequently, the absorptive capacity will also be improved. This brings up the question of how to design a KM program with digital tools that will help PT Snack Sehat to increase its efficiency in project development and operation support. The primary data for this research was gathered from KM Assessment using APO KM Framework and focus group discussion with top and middle-level managers from PT Snack Sehat. To develop a KM program, the research will use Six Steps KM Processes, which consist of KM Project, KM Assessment, KM Planning, K-Development, KM Implementation, and KM Evaluation. The development steps will include defining the objectives of the KM program, answering questions related to the knowledge management components (people, process, and technology), determining the knowledge management strategy based on KM objectives, and setting the action plan to get ten commitments from top-level management. The results show several processes and methods that need to be added to the current KM: KM Orientation & Training, Shadowing, Sharing Knowledge Checklist, Lesson Learned Document, Document Validation, and Document Organization. The complete knowledge management process will also be mapped in a Knowledge Stock and Flow Diagram using SECI Matrix. Keywords:  Project Development, Operational Management, Six Steps KM Processes, SECI Matrix, Digitalization, Absorptive Capacity, Efficiency

Abstract

With underutilized operational capacity. Sangun Laundry competes in the underserved laundry service market of Delatinos Residential Area, South Tangerang. A new business strategy that enlarges Sangun Laundry’s market share with current operational capacity is needed. To formulate one, the business environment is analyzed first. The external environment is examined using the PESTEL framework, Porter’s Five Forces, Cluster Analysis, and competitor analysis with data from literature reviews and customer survey. The internal environment is studied using Value Chain Analysis, Business Model Canvas, VRIO Analysis, and performance analysis with data from interview with the owner. The two environments are harmonized in SWOT analysis as the basis of strategy formulation, which uses Porter’s Generic Strategy, Diamond Strategy, and a new business model canvas. The result shows Sangun Laundry’s operational excellence and its need for improving customer service. Although Sangun Laundry excels in cost-efficiency and quality reputation by virtue of its resources and capabilities, underutilized operational capacity, lack of branding, and manual financial recording slow the business down. Low bargaining power of buyers, rising purchasing power, and high awareness of health hint higher future demand, but threats also come from tight rivalry, laundry appliance innovations, environmental disobedience, and quality mishaps. Sangun Laundry shall apply differentiation strategy where pick-up delivery and customer service become the value propositions, and serve the customer segment dominated by workers aged 36-55. A new customer service staff, who would operate a partner CRM software, is a required vehicle for customer service, which will boost brand perception and customer’s sharing intention.

Abstract

Kokikit is a food and beverage startup company providing non-frozen ready meal, such as instant rice and instant side dish which is ready to serve within minutes. Although the market growth of ready meal in Indonesia is positive, the revenue of Kokikit keeps decreasing. Marketing is one of the ways to dominate the market share, yet Kokikit has not fully utilised its potential to market the products, which impacted the sales due to its ineffectiveness. The research aims to determine the new segment, target customers and positioning (STP) for Kokikit based on cluster generated from the consumer analysis, and to propose marketing strategies based on new marketing mix according to the cluster’s preferences. The data collection used qualitative method through one-on-one interview with 5 potential consumers to determine attributes, and quantitative method through questionnaire attended by 149 potential consumers within Jabodetabek area, which further analysed using hierarchical clustering. The conclusion of the hierarchical clustering is using Importance-Performance analysis as a comparison between the importance of attributes and its performance in the company. The new target consumers are the ones that prefer hygiene, good taste, variety of menu; price discounts; distribution place using GoFood, GrabFood, supermarkets, or minimarkets; and promotions through YouTube, endorsement and social ads. Therefore, the proposed marketing strategies are maintenance of taste and hygiene, add more variety of menu, conduct more price discounts, opening GoFood and GrabFood, partnering with supermarket and minimarket, conduct regular promotions focusing on YouTube with endorsement and social ads to attract more customers.

Abstract

The pandemic has affected various business sectors, including the property management industry. Restrictions on movement and gatherings of people have caused some difficulties, especially in the events, travel and tourism industries. Relife Property Management is one of the companies impacted a lot by the pandemic because their business is related to these industries. In this uncertain world of business, the only sure source of lasting competitive advantage is knowledge. Therefore, activities of managing knowledge in this company are analyzed. With knowledge management (KM), businesses will not only survive the pandemic, but develop. The purpose of this study is to identify practices that have been carried out by companies in managing their knowledge, identify KM programs that are suitable in the digital era and propose plans for implementing KM system and programs for the company’s business development. This research was conducted using qualitative methods with primary data collected with observations and interviews, and secondary data from documents and reports. The results of this study indicate that the company has already been practicing activities related to managing their knowledge, but they have not implemented a well-structured KM system, and their activities are not based on KM theory. Therefore, KM system and programs are designed and proposed based on theories such as the SECI and PPT models for the company’s business development. The proposed business solution consists of a diagram with a goal orientation, the formulation of a KM model, a proposed KM conversion mechanism, and a KM roadmap. The implementation plan for the company is also proposed in this study.

Home and living products become one of the priorities that can be seen through the increasing supply and demand, because of the restriction of mobility, that makes people more aware about their home decoration. Fluffy Fellas Studio is one of the home and living businesses which started in a pandemic and within a year, some of the products managed to become the top 3 best sellers in one of the marketplace in Indonesia, with increasing number of visitors and sales every month, but the retention and conversion rate are decreasing every month. Since the future challenges are still unpredictable, scenario planning framework is used to define four alternative solutions. The key focal issue of the research is what plausible scenarios and future strategies are suitable for Fluffy Fellas in 2 years. The critical uncertainties of Fluffy Fellas are Covid-19 pandemics and industry dynamics, which resulted in four scenarios assigned with their own narratives, implications, options, and early warning signals which should be analyzed carefully to determine which scenario to be implemented. To better prepare for all the scenarios, Fluffy Fellas should prioritize the improvement in supply chain, research and development, and social media planning.

Abstract

Based on previous studies, the relationship between knowledge management and competitive advantage has not reached a conclusive result. Therefore, this study aims to lay a theoretical foundation for the relationship between knowledge management and competitive advantage while taking into account the mediating role of strategy execution. We utilise Resource-Based Theory and knowledge management as our basis to explore this relationship. We also propose propositions and reasoning for every relationship discussed in this study based on theories and previous studies. In the end, we provide a theoretical research model for any researchers interested in exploring this proposal in various contexts, both empirically and theoretically. We proposed a novel theoretical perspective in exploring knowledge management theory by providing this model.

Abstract

Research to improve entrepreneurship education in higher educational institutions (HEIs) has gained much attention over the past years. Prior studies have thoroughly investigated the challenges of entrepreneurship education based on the providers' and educators’ perspectives. However, the experiences of the students who receive and undergo the process have not received equal attention, especially when investigating the "for" entrepreneurship approach where the goal is to develop entrepreneur graduates. Thus, a phenomenological study was conducted to understand the challenges that the students perceive in studying entrepreneurship whilst creating their businesses as the expected outcome of the "for" entrepreneurship approach. The data gathered from six participants from an undergraduate entrepreneurship program revealed that their struggles were related to personal knowledge management practices. This finding extends the literature on entrepreneurship education and presents avenues for further inquiry on personal knowledge management for entrepreneurship education.

Abstract

Every student in their academic life faces dilemmas regarding their career choice and academic performance plays a big role here. This present study seeks to investigate the relationship between career intention and academic performance of University students. Along with these, the study also aims to examine the relationships among multiple demographic variables of University students. Moreover, a self-administered questionnaire survey was conducted to collect data from the participants. Altogether a hundred students studying at different universities participated in the survey. The hypothesis of this study is entitled to determine the relationship between career intention regarding “Entrepreneurship” and “Academic performance”. This study also determines the relationship between career intention regarding “Corporate job” and “Academic performance”. However, correlation and linear regression analysis were employed to test the research hypothesis. The analysis of cross-tabulation has been conducted to represent the relationship between demographic characteristics and the academic performance of the respondents. The study findings reveal that there is a very weak relationship between entrepreneurial mindset and academic performance. Hence, this study also clarifies that there is a strong relationship between a job-oriented mindset and academic performance. The findings of this research provide a better understanding to the policymakers of universities about developing the curriculum such that the university students can be benefitted while setting their career goals and these will be beneficial for the society as a whole. Keywords: Academic performance, students, career intention, entrepreneurship, job.
