Purpose: The objectives of this study are to elaborate on the concepts, dimensions and elements of green supply chain management (GSCM) and develop a framework of GSCM implementation for the construction industryDesign/methodology/approach: This paper presents the findings from a study where experts were asked to contribute their opinions related to GSCM in the construction industry. To develop the model, the Delphi method was used. The objective of this method is to achieve the most reliable consensus in a group of expertsFindings: The research result is a developed framework for GSCM in the construction industry comprising five concepts, 22 dimensions, and 82 elements.Research limitations/implications: The limitation of this research is that its output was the discovered elements, but it did not cover the implementation of this model in construction projects, so some elements may be missing.Practical implications: The output of the research could give new perspective to manage the construction project based on Green Supply Chain Method.Social implications: The stakeholder of the construction project has to learn with this concept (Green Supply Chain) in order to improve construction’s project performance.Originality/value: The originality of this research is that it is a new theme in the area of the construction supply chain. Previous research merely considered the concept of GSCM in construction. Therefore, this research develops an assessment model for performance indicators of GSCM implementation in construction projects.

The commercialization of higher education through the concept of Perguruan Tinggi Negeri Berbadan Hukum (PTN-BH) has led the higher competition among State University and Private University. It becomes a threat and challenge faced by State University in recruiting new students. A clearer understanding of why and how students choose universities is needed to develop the brand awareness enhancement strategies of State University. This paper aims to identify the factors that influence student’s decision of university choice, without regarding the individual aspects. The Deplhi technique is used at the stage of information gathering, in which four experts from higher education were being interviewed. The combination of HEdPERF dimensions and brand awareness indicators were used to develop the variables. The pilot study done through the sample of 1st-year undergraduate students enrolled in the Top 8 State Universities in Indonesia for the validation test using SPSS 16.0. This findings result that there are six factors in choosing higher education, including academics, facilities, campus life, reputation, industry linkage and access. The test and evaluations result that from 28 items proposed, there are 23 items that can be considered as the student’s decision in their choice of State University.

Abstract:Purpose: The purpose of this research is to develop an assessment model to identify phase of industrial cluster life cycle which comprises definition of the cycle phases, identification of assessment components, and characterization of each phase of cluster life cycle.

Indonesia is known as one of the nation's largest mebel exporter in the world. But, the development of Central Java mebel exports for four years fluctuated but tended to decline that was caused by economic crisis of the world. Industrial clusters are one of the strategic that was used to develop industry based on region. The purpose of this study was to analyze the factors affecting the competitiveness of the mebel industry in order to take policies that can be used to improve the competitiveness of Indonesian mebel industry of Central Java especially in overseas markets. This study use PLS (Partial Least Square) as tools that serve to test the diamond model porter plus social capital variables and analyze the factors that affect competitiveness, caused total population size used in this study is small. The results showed that competitiveness in the Mulyoharjo furniture cluster is influenced by condition factors, demand condition, related supporting industries. Whereas, Senenan furniture cluster is influenced by condition factors, the role of government, the opportunities, and social capital.

Green construction is a concept in construction to minimize environmental impact so that balancing the environmental capabilities with human life needs for the present and future generations. This concept in line with sustainable construction and lean construction concept. In the Project Life Cycle (PLC), green construction is related to the construction phase. However, accomplishment in this stage cannot be separated with previous stages that are planning and design phases. Therefore, an integrated green concept is needed to assemble the continuity of each stage in PLC thus reducing the fragmented nature of the construction industry. Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) concern to sustainable practices along the supply chain. Management of materials and information flow, in addition energy consumed and waste generated reduction in every stage makes GSCM worth to considered as a concept to integrated all stages in PLC into a green spirit. This study aims to identify the indicators of green construction concept as part of GSCM. The result of this study is a framework for implementing green construction that consists of four dimensions, 25 elements, and 42 indicators.

Kualitas merupakan salah satu faktor penting penentu keberhasilan suatu perusahaan dalam menguasai persaingan. Pada Painting Shop Karawang Plant 1 PT Toyota Motor Manufacturing Indonesia, kualitas diukur melalui OK Ratio, yaitu perbandingan antara jumlah unit yang sesuai standar dengan total unit yang diproduksi. Pada tahun 2017, OK Ratio Painting Shop belum mencapai target. Salah satu defect yang berkontribusi besar terhadap OK Ratio adalah dust seed yang terjadi pada area front door opening. Penelitian dilakukan dengan menggunakan Kaizen melalui siklus PDCA dengan menggunakan seven tools of quality dan 5 why analysis. Diketahui bahwa terdapat tiga akar penyebab defect dust seed: tidak terdapat downflow pada area moisture sanding, jig yang digunakan masih kotor akibat pencucian yang tidak efektif dan jig digunakan secara berulang tanpa dibersihkan. Dengan melakukan perbaikan sesuai dengan akar permasalahan yang telah ditemukan, didapatkan hasil reject dust seed pada area front door opening berkurang sebanyak 35.29% dan proses repair touch up 2K berkurang sebesar 53.6%. Ditetapkan standar untuk mendukung berjalannya perbaikan yang dilakukan, yaitu standar kerja proses airblow jig pada area jig handling untuk memastikan jig yang akan dipakai bebas kontaminan, standar kerja proses vacuum cleaning untuk memastikan unit bersih dari kontaminan sebelum memasuki spray booth, serta standar perawatan dust catcher.
