Analysis productivity and its impact on time and cost of implementation of the private residence project structure work
Full text linkThe construction project of Mrs. Tiya & Mr. Tom's Private Residence in Kemenuh-Gianyar is a 3-story villa development chosen as a case study due to discrepancies between the consultant's plans and the actual field conditions. This necessitated a method to optimize work completion. One proposed solution for accelerating the project was to add more workers. Based on the initial plan, the project required 104 days (3 months and 2 weeks) for completion, with a total structural work cost of Rp. 703,803,162.24. After analysis with the alternative of adding more workers, the project completion duration could return to the schedule of 90 days (3 months) or be accelerated by 12 days (2 weeks), with a total cost of Rp. 671,298,258.93. This concludes that adding more workers is an effective method to increase time efficiency by 14.29% and decrease costs by 4.6%, or the equivalent of Rp. 32,504,903.31

Exploring the impact of wait times and service delays on patient engagement and trust in healthcare facilities
Full text linkProlonged wait times and service delays continue to be central issues in the UK’s NHS, with far-reaching consequences for patient engagement and trust. How these operational problems affect patient attitudes is critical to the development of patient-centred care initiatives. This research aimed to investigate the impact of wait times, service delays, and associated communication variables on patient engagement and Trust in NHS healthcare settings. A quantitative cross-sectional survey was conducted among 500 adult NHS users who had utilized healthcare services within the last 12 months and experienced delays due to waiting times. Data were gathered using a standardised questionnaire that included demographics, experiences of wait times, communication, engagement, and trust. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis was conducted using SPSS, building models progressively on service experience and facility perception variables to determine predictive capability. The baseline model, which included only demographics, predicted negligible variance in engagement (R² = 0.034). Adding variables related to service experience improved model performance substantially (R² = 0.446). Wait time (β = -0.1987, p < 0.001), delay experience (β = -0.22, p < 0.001), and ease of booking (β = 0.1103, p < 0.001) were all significant predictors. Information about delays also had a positive impact on engagement
Analysis of SMK3 implementation on building construction project implementation performance: Case study of the construction of the Menara Mandiri building in Denpasar
Full text linkThe construction industry is inherently associated with a high risk of occupational accidents. A major contributing factor to such incidents is the inadequate implementation of Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) practices. To mitigate these risks, the professional application of the Occupational Safety and Health Management System (OSHMS) is crucial and should comply with relevant laws and government regulations. This study aims to assess the level of OSHMS implementation in the construction of the Menara Mandiri Building in Denpasar and to identify key factors influencing its application. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, with data collected through the use of checklists and questionnaires. The data were analyzed using percentage analysis to determine the implementation level, descriptive statistics (mean values), and ranking analysis to identify influential factors. The findings indicate that the OSHMS implementation level was satisfactory, with a compliance rate of 96.39% and a minor non-compliance rate of 3.61%. The most significant factor influencing the implementation of OSHMS was the availability of occupational safety and health training for workers
The role of attitude towards green in mediating the effect of environmental concern and green perceived value on green purchase intention: A study of Gen Z’s behavior toward Sensatia Botanicals in Denpasar City
Full text linkThis study examines the mediating role of attitude towards green in the relationship between environmental concern, green perceived value, and green purchase intention. The research focuses on Generation Z’s behavior toward Sensatia Botanicals in Denpasar City, using the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) as the theoretical framework.The study adopts a quantitative, associative research design. The target population consists of Gen Z individuals in Denpasar who have never purchased Sensatia Botanicals’ eco-friendly cosmetic products. Using purposive sampling, 112 respondents were selected, and data were collected through questionnaires. Partial Least Squares (PLS)-based Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was employed for data analysis. Findings reveal that environmental concern, green perceived value, and attitude towards green positively and significantly influence green purchase intention. Moreover, attitude towards green partially mediates the effects of environmental concern and green perceived value on green purchase intention for Sensatia Botanicals. Theoretically, this research enriches the TPB by providing empirical insights into the relationships among key green behavioral variables. Practically, Sensatia Botanicals can strengthen its marketing strategy by creating educational campaigns emphasizing eco-friendly, functional, and emotional product benefits. Additionally, offering incentives can foster stronger emotional connections, enhance purchase intention, and build a sustainability-conscious community

Proposal of a photovoltaic system in areas of the technical University of Manabí
Full text linkSolar energy has managed to establish itself as one of the most promising and sustainable alternatives when it comes to addressing the different energy challenges at a global level, especially in developing countries, which do not have a good energy system since their electricity grids can present drawbacks. Currently, in Ecuador, periodic power outages affect both residential and educational areas, making daily activities and the development of academic projects difficult. This phenomenon is very notorious in the province of Manabí, specifically in the Technical University of Manabí, which has frequent interruptions of the electricity supply, which affects its normal operation. The aim is to propose the installation of a photovoltaic system, which is responsible for transforming solar energy into electricity, thus being a sustainable solution that, in addition to helping to reduce dependence on the conventional electricity grid, would also contribute to the transition to renewable and clean energy sources. The result was that the installation of photovoltaic systems at the Technical University of Manabí is a viable solution to counteract recurrent blackouts and move towards greater energy sustainability
The mediating role of the dark triad in the effect of emotional intelligence on turnover intention
Full text linkTurnover intention refers to an employee's tendency or intention to voluntarily leave or move from their current position and seek employment elsewhere. This study aims to analyze the relationship between emotional intelligence and turnover intention with dark triad as mediating variable, based on the Social Exchange Theory and Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) Theory. A quantitative approach with a causal associative method was employed in this research. The sampling method used was proportional random sampling, with a total sample of 235 employees. Data were collected through a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed through Structural Equation Modeling based on Partial Least Squares (PLS-SEM) to examine both direct and indirect relationships among the study variables. The findings reveal that emotional intelligence has a significant negative effect on turnover intention. Furthermore, emotional intelligence significantly negatively influences Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy. In turn, Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy have a significant positive effect on turnover intention. The mediation analysis indicates that Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy partially and competitively mediate the effect of emotional intelligence on turnover intention. These results provide practical implications for IHG as valuable input and consideration in managing human resources to reduce employee turnover.
