    This study aims to develop a model of sustainability-oriented open innovation from the perspective of SMEs. Sustainability performance improvement is a problem for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) due to limited resources. By implementing open innovation, SMEs can take advantage of external resources to innovate in their operations, thereby increasing sustainability performance. The model developed in this study consists of eighteen constructs: sustainability performance, innovativeness, inbound open innovation, six constructs representing organizational relationship factors, and nine constructs representing knowledge factors. The research model is evaluated using Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling. The respondents of this study are 199 SMEs that produce Batik Tulis, a traditional Indonesian fabric. The result shows that innovativeness positively relates to sustainability performance and inbound open innovation has a positive relationship with innovativeness. Competence mapping and network position are the organizational factors that positively affect inbound open innovation. The knowledge factors that positively affect inbound open innovation are the appropriation of knowledge output, connective capacity, inventive capacity, and innovative capacity. Identifying these six supporting factors for sustainability-oriented open innovation in SMEs based on empirical evidence is the main theoretical contribution of this study. As a practical implication, SMEs can gradually improve these six supporting factors by being active members and contributing to industrial associations

These dimensions have high relationship with quality improvement. The successful of quality improvement implementation is supported by flexibility and trust. Each of them has low and high continuum, than it will form four quadrants. The first is related to low trust and low flexibility, the second is related to high trust and low flexibility, the third is related to low trust and high flexibility, and the fourth is related to high trust and high flexibility. Quality culture implementation is considered as a process how to build quality in the context of flexibility and trust.

    AbstractAn autonomous maintenance team (AMT) is a maintenance work team in the production department and maintenance department. The work team consists of manager, engineer, technician, and operator. The team plans, executes and audits a routine autonomous maintenance. The autonomous maintenance teams are from both of internal and external corporate work teams. The internal work team plans, executes and audits autonomous maintenance activities. The external work team executes the autonomous maintenance activities. Both of work teams have to coordinate and work together so that no network system downtime occurs.All of the work teams execute an autonomous maintenance and influence each other when they repair a network system problem. All routine autonomous maintenance and incidentals should be coordinated with all involved work teams. Even if the network system is crash, the work teams must handle it as soon as possible. Hence, all of the work teams must coordinate and work together to do it. Sometimes it is not easy to do it because there is no standard procedure and coordination on how to recover the network system. Commonly, executing network system recovery based on work habit and experience. How the standard model of cooperation and coordination among work teams is required to solve it?The maintenance of network system can be viewed as a complex system and interconnected in terms of information and control. The model is developed based on the steps in the viable system model (VSM). All units and sub-units are viewed as the work teams. They should be able to communicate and coordinate effectively and integrated. Hence, a case study was conducted in the Network Division of Telecom Company. The data were collected by qualitative research using a snowball sampling method to selected informant. Supported by an observation and documentation then the data were analyzed using triangulation method. Finally, we made a model of standard cooperation and coordination of AMT
