Abstract

Abstract. The growing awareness of Halal compliance in today’s community shows the importance of Halal on the quality of products manufactured worldwide. Hence, it is crucial to ensure that the concept of Halal extends to the entire supply chain, from the farm to the consumer. Most research covers manufacturing and procurement, leaving Halal-compliant distribution and logistics open to a number of research opportunities. We conduct an investigation into digital Halal logistics from the perspective of the individual food delivery riders, focusing on the operational level of the supply chain. The extensive reliance on Internet-enabled smart phones and the growing popularity of food delivery have created an increasing number of job opportunities for delivery riders, mainly on motorcycles. However, there is a question around whether or not this delivery process is Halal compliant, given that the riders face many challenges in ensuring an acceptable quality of service. This study investigates how the riders perceive Halal compliance in the food delivery industry, and provides suggestions for the implementation of digital Halal at various operational checkpoints. Keywords: Digital logistics, Halal logistics, supply chain management, delivery riders.

Abstract

Abstract. Chatbots have been widely employed across a wide variety of companies and industries, from small- and medium-sized businesses to large corporations, and from e-commerce to financial institutions. Although chatbots have proven to be far more efficient and quicker than human agents, they do not always provide customers with a satisfactory experience because they lack a personal touch. Customer issues are often left unresolved and many are unsatisfied with chatbot services. This is unfavorable for firms that use chatbots for customer services as this jeopardizes their relationship with valued consumers. Thus, customer input is essential to streamline the product innovation process. This study uses a hybrid method involving lexicon-based TextBlob and logistic regression techniques to identify the sentiments of consumers toward chatbots for customer services based on user-generated content on Twitter. The results show that although people generally have positive encounters with chatbots, the gap between positive and negative sentiments is relatively small. This research provides insights that businesses can use to improve chatbot technology based on the voice of the customer to provide users with higher quality customer services in the future, especially since unsatisfied customers could be a threat to a business’s performance. Keywords:  chatbot, customer services, sentiment analysis, social media mining, voice of customers.

Abstract

Abstract. This study investigates how descriptive norms and perceived product attributes (utilitarian and hedonic benefits) influence the intention of young consumers to continue to adopt ride-hailing apps. We developed a conceptual model drawing upon the socio-technical theory by involving 333 Indonesian users of ride-hailing apps and estimating the model using the statistical tool of PLS-SEM-based software. The findings showed that social aspects (descriptive norms) and technical aspects (utilitarian and hedonic benefits) significantly influence young consumers to adopt ride-hailing apps. Intriguingly, a positive perception of the apps’ benefits is instrumental for encouraging young consumers to continue to adopt ride-hailing apps when descriptive norms appear, when peers in their social circle widely adopt similar apps. This study highlights the unique behavior of young consumers in adopting ride-hailing apps by accentuating the role of descriptive norms and perceived product attributes from the perspective of socio-technical theory. This study provides practical recommendations for digital platform providers, particularly TNCs (Transportation Network Companies), which offer ride-hailing services to address the young consumer segment with a community-based marketing approach to maintain their continued adoption.   Keywords: Continuation intention, platform economy, digital platform, ride-hailing services, socio-technical theory, young consumers

Abstract

Abstract. In the digital transformation era, one company shifts from manual to digital reporting through a corporate mobile application called JSMART (Jababeka System Management for Advance Report) to serve those living in Kota Jababeka city. JSMART is a corporate application that can be utilized by the community who resides in Jababeka. JSMART was launched in 2017, though unfortunately, based on survey, only 17% of employees are actively using it. The aims of this research are to investigate the root cause of this employee reluctance to adopt the technology and the proposed corporate strategy. The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) is used in quantitative approach to determine the influence of perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and attitudes towards using JSMART amongst employees. Based on path analysis results, these three factors significantly influence one another, and the total mean is calculated as 2.70, which suggests that JSMART is not considered good enough from the perspective of the employees. In addition, interviews were conducted as part of a qualitative approach to investigate further. The root cause mainly arises from organizational factors such as a lack of socialization and training, and unclear rules for utilizing JSMART. Therefore, this study proposes a strategic development formulation that prioritizes organizational development while rejecting a proposed in-app suggestion feature for future development. Keywords:  Corporate mobile application, digital transformation, technology acceptance, engagement rate, strategy.

Abstract

Abstract. Business Engineering emerged as an academic discipline almost a century ago in response to economic demand for experts with both business and engineering expertise. The discipline has since evolved to meet the needs of the fast changing global marketplace. The impact of globalization on the architecture, governance and running of organizations has also shaped the field today. Education has responded to these changes by adapting its architecture and governance to fit international needs. This study examines the case of ESB Business School, Reutlingen University as an example of how business engineering education has been forced to adapt its architecture and governance to fit international needs in the field. Close collaboration with global academic and corporate partners has enabled the school to integrate multiple international components into its business engineering curricula. However, the overall goal remains to ensure that the business engineering education provided is aligned with the global requirements coming from industry. This exploratory industry-driven study tackles this challenge. Qualitative interviews with company representatives of international companies as well as a global industry survey were conducted to examine what study programs and what graduate skill-set are most commonly sought after by industry in different regions of the world. Keywords: Business engineering, competence, employability, domain expertise
