Abstract

This study examines the relationship between logistics capability, inventory efficiency, and retail performance among five major Indonesian publicly listed retail companies — AMRT, MIDI, ERAA, ACES, and MAPI — using audited secondary financial data from 2020 to 2024. A quantitative, comparative, and longitudinal design was employed, analyzing net sales, inventory, cost of goods sold, inventory turnover, and store-network scale. All sampled companies recorded positive sales growth, though with varying trajectories. AMRT grew net revenue from Rp75.83 trillion to Rp118.23 trillion while maintaining stable inventory turnover. MIDI expanded revenue, inventory, and store networks concurrently. ERAA nearly doubled its sales, with ACES and MAPI also recording growth. Inventory investment generally increased alongside sales, reflecting greater operational capacity. AMRT's slight inventory turnover decline in 2024 is interpreted as a potential strategic response to network expansion rather than inefficiency. The findings suggest that logistics capability, inventory efficiency, and distribution-network scale serve as complementary indicators of retail operational performance. This study contributes comparative evidence to the logistics and retail management literature using audited data. However, inventory-based metrics should not be treated as direct measures of customer satisfaction. Future research should integrate customer-based indicators and apply advanced longitudinal methods with larger balanced datasets.

Abstract

Inventory control has become a strategic component of manufacturing operations because it influences working capital utilization, supply chain performance, and operating cost efficiency. Despite extensive research on inventory management, comparative evidence across Indonesian manufacturing subsectors remains limited, particularly regarding the operational differences among pharmaceutical, herbal, and cement industries. This study aims to examine how inventory control is associated with operating cost efficiency by comparing manufacturing companies with distinct logistics characteristics and inventory management practices. The study employed a quantitative exploratory comparative case-study design using secondary financial statement data obtained from the audited annual reports of PT Kalbe Farma Tbk, PT Indocement Tunggal Prakarsa Tbk, and PT Industri Jamu dan Farmasi Sido Muncul Tbk. The observation period covered 2020–2024 and produced twelve company-year observations. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, trend analysis, financial ratio analysis, percentage-change analysis, and comparative case analysis. Inventory performance was evaluated using Days Inventory and Inventory Turnover, while operating cost efficiency was assessed using the Cost of Goods Sold-to-Sales Ratio, Operating Expense Ratio, and Cost-Efficiency Proxy. The findings indicate that all three companies improved operational performance through different inventory management strategies. Kalbe Farma reduced Days Inventory from 147 days in 2022 to 119 days in 2024 while increasing net sales and expanding the contribution of its distribution and logistics segment from 32.21% to 33.41% of consolidated revenue. Indocement increased Inventory Turnover from 4.17 to 4.54 times while reducing inventory value by approximately 10.7% and maintaining positive revenue growth, indicating more efficient inventory utilization in a capital-intensive manufacturing environment. Sido Muncul improved operating cost performance by reducing its Operating Expense Ratio from 21.17% to 20.12%, resulting in an increase in the Cost-Efficiency Proxy from 37.55% to 37.85% despite moderate growth in production costs. Comparative analysis further demonstrates that inventory optimization strategies differ substantially across manufacturing subsectors because of differences in product characteristics, logistics intensity, regulatory requirements, and distribution systems. Consequently, inventory performance should be interpreted within the operational context of each industry rather than through direct comparison of absolute financial indicators. The study concludes that improved inventory control is associated with better operating cost performance in Indonesian manufacturing companies. However, the operational pathways through which efficiency is achieved vary across pharmaceutical, herbal, and cement manufacturing industries. These findings contribute to the inventory management and working capital management literature by integrating inventory control, logistics capability, and operating cost efficiency within a comparative manufacturing framework. The results also provide practical guidance for managers seeking to improve operational efficiency through inventory optimization, integrated logistics management, and effective working capital practices.

Abstract

Road pavement deterioration reduces transportation safety, ride quality, and operational efficiency, making systematic condition assessment essential for maintenance planning. This study evaluates pavement condition along Jalan Datuk Setia Maharaja, Pekanbaru using the Pavement Condition Index (PCI) method, identifies dominant distresses, and recommends segment-level maintenance strategies. A quantitative descriptive approach analyzed secondary survey data from eight segments covering approximately 1.62 km, applying standardized PCI procedures based on Total Deduct Value and Corrected Deduct Value, with maintenance priority determined through a Priority Score calculated as 100 − PCI. Results show an average PCI of 53.5, indicating overall Fair condition, with individual values ranging from 40 to 76. Segments 1 and 5 recorded the lowest PCI values and highest priority scores, requiring urgent intervention, while Segment 3 needed only routine maintenance. Among 225 identified distress occurrences across fourteen categories, patching dominated at 33.78%, followed by potholes (16.00%), longitudinal cracking (14.22%), and ravelling (13.33%), indicating recurring localized repairs and continuing structural deterioration. The study concludes that integrating PCI with Priority Score and distress analysis enhances maintenance decision-making and resource allocation. Future research should incorporate traffic loading, drainage, and environmental factors to develop predictive pavement management models.

Abstract

Reducing private vehicle dependence is central to sustainable urban transport policy. Jakarta has implemented an integrated strategy encompassing Bus Rapid Transit expansion, Mass Rapid Transit development, feeder integration, fare subsidies, and bus electrification. This study evaluates whether increased public transport ridership constitutes genuine modal shift away from private vehicles. Using a quantitative descriptive design with official secondary data from TransJakarta, MRT Jakarta, BPS DKI Jakarta, and government policy documents, the study analyzed ridership trends, growth indicators, and private vehicle statistics from 2022–2024. Results show average daily MRT ridership grew 105.56%, from 54,000 to 111,000 passengers, while TransJakarta served 371.4 million annual trips covering 91.7% of Jakarta's population across 242 routes. Despite these gains, approximately 11.50 million registered private vehicles remain, with motorcycles comprising 79.71% of total vehicle stock. Comparative indicators reveal only 32.29 annual TransJakarta trips per registered private vehicle, suggesting ridership growth reflects post-pandemic recovery and expanded demand rather than private vehicle substitution. The study concludes that while Jakarta's policies have significantly enhanced accessibility and service quality, ridership growth alone cannot confirm modal shift. Future evaluations should integrate travel surveys, origin–destination data, and behavioral evidence for comprehensive assessment.

Abstract

Inter-island freight distribution in Eastern Indonesia faces high logistics costs, low vessel utilization, and fragmented freight flows due to dispersed islands, long distances, and weak port-hinterland integration. This study develops an integrated hub-and-spoke logistics framework to improve efficiency by optimizing hub selection, cargo allocation, routing, shipment frequency, and vessel utilization. A mixed-method design combined qualitative stakeholder analysis with logistics network optimization. Semi-structured interviews with twelve stakeholders—shipping companies, port operators, logistics providers, government agencies, cargo owners, and academics—were analyzed thematically to identify operational issues, translated into decision variables for a mixed-integer linear programming optimization framework, complemented by sensitivity analysis of demand variability, fuel prices, vessel capacity, and schedule disruptions. Findings show the existing system remains fragmented and demand-driven, with vessel utilization at 55–65%, below the preferred 80% threshold. Stakeholders identified cargo consolidation, hub-port development, route optimization, scheduling, port-hinterland integration, and digital information sharing as key performance determinants. Strategically located hubs can reduce port calls, improve cargo aggregation, and lower costs, though direct shipping remains suitable for high-volume or time-sensitive cargo—suggesting a hybrid network combining hub-and-spoke and direct routing offers greater flexibility. Digital coordination among stakeholders is essential for schedule reliability. The study concludes that the integrated framework combines stakeholder knowledge with optimization principles, offering practical guidance for reducing costs and strengthening regional maritime connectivity in Eastern Indonesia.

Abstract

Rapid urbanization and rising private vehicle ownership have intensified congestion and accessibility challenges in Indonesian cities, making sustainable urban transportation a strategic priority. This study examines the implementation of sustainable urban transportation policies in Surabaya, Semarang, and Bandung, identifying governance, institutional, and operational factors that facilitate or constrain successful implementation. A qualitative multiple-case study design was employed, using a dataset of semi-structured interviews with twelve stakeholders—municipal officials, transport operators, users, and experts—comprising 120 question-answer units across ten implementation themes. Data were analyzed through open, axial, and selective coding, thematic analysis, and cross-case comparison. Findings show all three municipalities share commitment to reduced private vehicle dependence, integrated public transportation, and equitable accessibility, though implementation effectiveness varies with institutional capacity, financing, technological readiness, and stakeholder collaboration. Institutional coordination was the most influential success determinant, as fragmented authority and inconsistent budgeting often delayed execution. First-mile and last-mile connectivity significantly shaped accessibility and public acceptance. Digital technologies improved operational efficiency but required stronger data governance. Continuous monitoring supported organizational learning by shifting evaluation toward outcomes like ridership, emission reduction, and user satisfaction. The study concludes that sustainable urban transportation is primarily a governance challenge, requiring interaction among policy vision, institutional coordination, service integration, technological capability, and stakeholder engagement, offering practical guidance for developing countries.

Abstract

Digital transformation is a strategic priority for improving efficiency, transparency, and competitiveness in port logistics, yet empirical evidence on how digital technologies enhance operational performance across various port actors remains limited. This study examines digital technology implementation in Indonesian port logistics, identifies operational opportunities generated by digital transformation, and analyzes how these technologies improve operational performance. A qualitative multiple-case study design involved nine key stakeholders—port authorities, terminal operators, IT management, customs, shipping companies, freight forwarders, operational personnel, academia, and regulators. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and documentary evidence, analyzed using thematic analysis. Findings show Indonesian ports have implemented an integrated digital portfolio—Port Community System, Terminal Operating System, EDI, IoT, automated gates, RFID, container tracking, digital payments, and AI-based predictive analytics—significantly enhancing real-time information exchange, cargo visibility, coordination, and data-driven decision-making. Participants reported improvements in vessel turnaround, crane productivity, container handling, customs clearance, truck turnaround, logistics lead time, and customer service. Performance gains depend not only on technology adoption but also on interoperability, standardized data governance, organizational readiness, workforce capability, cybersecurity, and stakeholder collaboration. However, variations in digital maturity, legacy systems, and institutional coordination continue to limit fully integrated smart-port ecosystems. The study concludes that digital transformation serves as a strategic enabler of operational excellence when integrated with organizational processes and collaborative governance, offering practical guidance for accelerating smart-port development in Indonesia.

Abstract

Ports play a strategic role in maritime logistics but also contribute substantially to carbon emissions through cargo-handling equipment, terminal electricity consumption, vessel berthing activities, and landside transport operations. This study aims to examine the effects of equipment electrification, shore-power availability, renewable-electricity utilization, digitalization, and operational efficiency on carbon-emission intensity in Indonesian port operations while evaluating the potential of integrated green-port strategies for emission reduction. The study employs a quantitative panel-data approach using a balanced dataset of 32 port-year observations from eight major Indonesian ports covering the 2021–2024 period. Total operational emissions are estimated from diesel consumption, electricity use, and vessel-hotelling activities, while carbon-emission intensity is measured as tonnes of carbon dioxide per 1,000 throughput units. Panel-regression analysis is specified to evaluate the relationships between technological and operational variables and emission intensity, complemented by policy-scenario simulations assessing the effects of equipment electrification, shore power, renewable electricity, digital operational optimization, and an integrated green-port package. The results indicate that average operational emissions declined from 12,612.66 tCO₂ in 2021 to 6,790.22 tCO₂ in 2024, representing a 46.16% reduction. Carbon-emission intensity decreased from 17.09 to 8.53 tCO₂ per 1,000 throughput units, equivalent to a 50.09% improvement in environmental efficiency. During the same period, equipment electrification increased from 9.18% to 48.80%, while average vessel berth time declined from 42.13 to 29.68 hours. The average Green Port Index reached 55.93 in 2024, indicating a medium-to-high level of sustainability transformation. Scenario analysis suggests that additional equipment electrification could reduce operational emissions by approximately 18%, universal shore power by 9%, renewable electricity by 7%, and digital operational optimization by 8%. When implemented simultaneously, the integrated green-port package is estimated to reduce operational emissions by approximately 36.1%, demonstrating that coordinated technological and operational interventions generate greater environmental benefits than isolated measures. The study concludes that successful port decarbonization requires the integration of clean technologies, low-carbon electricity, operational digitalization, and efficiency improvements rather than reliance on a single mitigation strategy. The proposed panel-data framework and Green Port Index provide practical tools for evaluating port sustainability and supporting evidence-based policy development. These findings contribute to the growing literature on sustainable maritime logistics and offer policy guidance for accelerating the transition toward low-carbon port operations in Indonesia and comparable emerging maritime economies.

Abstract

Urban freight distribution has grown increasingly complex due to e-commerce growth, rising customer expectations, and traffic congestion. This study investigates operational and technological determinants of on-time delivery performance in Indonesian urban freight distribution, evaluating the relative contribution of operational, environmental, technological, and customer-related factors. A quantitative cross-sectional design used 480 delivery observations from Jakarta, Surabaya, Bandung, and Medan. On-time delivery was coded as a binary outcome, with explanatory variables including congestion index, departure delay, loading time, number of stops, distance, peak-hour operation, rainfall, route optimization, real-time tracking, and customer availability, analyzed through binary logistic regression. Results show an overall on-time delivery rate of 90.63%. Traffic congestion was the strongest constraint, significantly reducing punctuality odds with each unit increase. Route optimization and real-time tracking significantly improved on-time delivery probability, demonstrating that digital logistics technologies enhance reliability through better planning and visibility. Delivery distance showed a marginal negative effect, while departure delay, loading time, peak-hour operation, rainfall, and customer availability were not significant. Number of stops showed a positive association, interpreted as reflecting efficient route configuration rather than a direct causal benefit. The study concludes that delivery reliability depends on the interaction between traffic conditions and digital logistics capabilities, with route optimization and real-time tracking mitigating congestion's adverse effects—offering practical guidance for improving urban freight performance in developing-country contexts.

Abstract

Public transport accessibility is essential for sustainable urban mobility, yet disparities between urban centers and peripheral areas persist in many Indonesian medium-sized cities. This study examines how residents, operators, and local governments in Malang, Mataram, and Palu perceive these disparities and identifies factors shaping accessibility inequality and its implications for equitable transport planning. A qualitative comparative multiple-case study design was used, involving thirteen purposively selected informants—urban and peripheral residents, vulnerable groups, operators, and planners—through semi-structured interviews, field observations, and policy document analysis. Data were analyzed using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña thematic analysis framework via open, axial, and selective coding. Findings show significant disparities: central residents enjoy shorter access distances, higher frequency, better connectivity, and reliability, while peripheral communities face longer distances, weak first/last-mile connections, limited hours, higher costs, and reliance on informal transport. Barriers are especially severe for persons with disabilities, older adults, women, students, and low-income residents, linking transport disadvantage to social exclusion. Institutional constraints—limited budgets, uneven investment, declining ridership, and urban-centered planning—sustain these inequalities. Residents adopt adaptive strategies (motorcycle taxis, ride-sharing, schedule adjustments) that shift the burden onto individuals rather than resolving structural issues. The study concludes that accessibility disparities are multidimensional, requiring integrated feeder services, inclusive infrastructure, equitable investment, and stronger transport–land-use coordination, informed by Accessibility Theory, Transport Equity, and Center–Periphery perspectives.
