Evaluasi Optimalisasi Cash Flow Pada Proyek Multiyears Dengan Penyesuaian Perubahan Waktu Pelaksanaan (Studi Kasus Proyek Pembangunan Jalur Kereta Api Lintas Makassar-Pare pare)

The construction of the Trans-Sulawesi railway line is a railway network built to reach important areas on the island of Sulawesi. In general, the implementation of construction projects is limited by a certain time with limited resources to complete a given job, but due to the unavailability of land when the Work Start Order is issued, it causes a time addendum twice without any cost escalation. The purpose of this research is to get the optimal cash flow that can be obtained by contractors based on changes in implementation time and get the right strategy that can be applied in the future so that no more Addendum changes in implementation time can harm the implementing contractor. Data collection includes primary data by interviewing 25 respondents representing 155 populations consisting of 15 work units, 10 supervisory consultants, 25 implementing contractors and 105 land owners. Secondary data collection was carried out by requesting the necessary data from the implementing contractor. Cash Flow optimization evaluation is carried out by calculating 2 cash flow simulations, namely: Simulation 1 (823 days based on addendum 1), simulation 2 (1063 days / based on addendum 2). Determination of the right strategy to avoid addendum changes in implementation time is done using SWOT Analysis. Calculation of both simulations obtained results: In Simulation 1 (823 days) the acceleration of the implementer

Beneficiaries' role in averting quality challenges in government social housing construction

Abstract Purpose: Upon assuming office in 1994, the South African government began constructing social housing for the less privileged to improve their socioeconomic living standards. However, one of the primary factors behind the rising unhappiness with government-constructed social housing is the beneficiaries' lack of involvement. The study sought to identify beneficiaries' role in averting quality challenges in government social housing construction. Methodology: A qualitative approach using random sampling was used to interview construction professionals with experience constructing government social housing. Online interviews were conducted with 29 participants, and the data were analysed using a thematic content analysis method to generate themes and sub-themes. Findings: The results indicate that to avert quality challenges in government-constructed social housing, the beneficiaries have a considerable role in the planning, construction, and post-construction phases of the project implementation. Beneficiaries must be provided with the necessary documentation, prevent political interference, participate in the construction process, monitor progress, and train to maintain the houses after construction. Value of the paper: This study indicates how beneficiaries can partake in the development process of government-constructed social housing. The findings will enable beneficiaries to participate in ensuring satisfactory constructed social housing.

Enhancing Health Equity and Patient Engagement in Diabetes Care: Technology-Aided Continuous Glucose Monitoring Pilot Implementation Project.

Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) provide service to medically underserved areas and communities, providing care to over 32 million patients annually. The burden of diabetes is increasing, but often, the vulnerable communities served by FQHCs lag in the management of the disease due to limited resources and related social determinants of health. With the increasing adoption of technologies in health care delivery, digital tools for continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) are being used to improve disease management and increase patient engagement. In this viewpoint, we share insights on the implementation of a CGM program at an FQHC, the Community-University Health Care Center (CUHCC) in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Our intent is to improve diabetes management through better monitoring of glucose and to ensure that the CGM program enables our organization's overarching digital strategy. Given the resource limitations of our population, we provided Libre Pro devices to uninsured patients through grants to improve health care equity. We used an interdisciplinary approach involving pharmacists, nurses, and clinicians and used hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels as a measure of diabetes management. We assessed the CGM program and noted key aspects to guide future implementation and scalability. We recruited 148 participants with a mean age of 54 years; 39.8% (59/148) self-identified their race as non-White, 9.5% (14/148) self-identified their ethnicity as Hispanic or Latino, and one-third (53/148, 35.8%) were uninsured. Participants had diverse language preferences, with Spanish (54/148, 36.5%), English (52/148, 35.1%), Somali (21/148, 14.2%), and other languages (21/148, 14.2%). Their clinical characteristics included an average BMI of 29.91 kg/m2 and a mean baseline HbA1c level of 9.73%. Results indicate that the CGM program reduced HbA1c levels significantly from baseline to first follow-up (P<.001) and second follow-up (P<.001), but no significant difference between the first and second follow-up (P=.94). We share key lessons learned on cultural and language barriers, the digital divide, technical issues, and interoperability needs. These key lessons are generalizable for improving implementation at FQHCs and refining digital strategies for future scalability.

Strengthening teamwork and respect (STAR) in maternity units: developing a health system intervention in South Africa

ABSTRACT Disrespect and abuse in maternity services in South Africa has been described over several decades and are rooted in the country’s complex socio-political landscape and unequal health system which places strain on public sector health professionals. Strategies to improve the quality of health care typically involve once-off didactic teaching or outside technical consultants focused on improving specific health programmes. These approaches fail to encourage self-reflection or to establish learning cultures. Participatory learning processes, embedded in routine service delivery, are a potentially powerful way to improve ownership and accountability for health system performance. We describe the process followed to develop the Strengthening Teamwork and Respect (STAR) intervention which is being implemented in nine district hospitals in two rural districts of KwaZulu-Natal. The intervention approach draws on a conceptual framework for learning health systems, with intervention strategies informed by participatory learning and action theory. The intervention design was an iterative process informed by literature reviews, formative data collection, consultation with provincial, district and hospital management stakeholders, expert reviewer inputs and piloting of proposed activities. This process produced the STAR intervention approach and toolkit, consisting of: identification and training of champions, creation of STAR teams, convening of learning sessions to work through STAR toolkit activities, identification, implementation and monitoring of change projects, and onsite and virtual mentorship from the STAR development team. Endline cross-sectional surveys and a parallel process evaluation will advance the evidence base for interventions to improve respectful care and cultures of teamwork and learning within maternity units in rural low- and middle-income settings.

Soil Aggregate Stability and Characteristics of Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium Contents in Cut Slope Soils With Different Aspects in Plateau Areas

ABSTRACTSlope aspects can affect the soil‐forming process. The implementation of road construction projects in plateau regions has resulted in the formation of numerous cut slopes. However, the soil aggregate stability and the characteristics of soil nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) nutrients under different cut slope aspects (east‐facing slope (EFS), west‐facing slope (WFS), south‐facing slope (SFS) and north‐facing slope (NFS)) are still unclear. In this context, the present study aims to assess the characteristics and influencing factors of soil aggregate stability, as well as N, P, and K contents, under different slope aspects in typical cut slope soils with the four different aspects in the southwestern plateau of China. In addition, the relationships of the soil aggregate stability with the soil N, P, and K contents were further explored in this study. The results showed significant differences in the soil aggregate stability (MWD, mean weight diameter) between the four slope aspects. The MWD values of the WFS and SFS were 1.18 and 1.16, respectively, which were significantly higher than those of the EFS and NFS (p &lt; 0.05). Large macroscopic aggregates (LMA) showed the greatest contribution to the MWD values. The soil total phosphorus (TP), total nitrogen (TN), total potassium (TK), alkali‐hydrolyzed nitrogen (AN), available phosphorus (AP), available potassium (AK), and soil organic carbon (SOC) contents showed significant differences between the four slope aspects and soil particle sizes. However, comparatively lower SOC contents were observed in the silt and clay fraction (SCA). The SOC contents and soil pH were the major factors influencing the LMA and SCA, which, in turn, affected the soil aggregate stability and contents of N, P, and K. The current study provides a useful reference for improving the quality of cut slope soils.

Analysis of Critical Success Factors of Agile Software Projects based on the Fuzzy Delphi Method

Agile software development initiatives have gained widespread recognition both domestically and internationally, particularly in the Chinese software industry. However, traditional enterprises often face challenges, such as inadequate project management and lower success rates, which can be attributed to a limited understanding of agile methodologies and effective implementation of agile practices. To address these challenges and identify the Critical Success Factors (CSFs) in agile software projects, an extensive literature review was conducted. As a result, a CSFs model for agile projects in China was constructed. The aim of this study is to evaluate the CSFs model using the Fuzzy Delphi Method (FDM). The research involved 30 authoritative experts from the Chinese agile software development industry and academia, each with more than 10 years of relevant industry knowledge and experience. The FDM was applied to collect data through questionnaires and verify theoretical success factors and dimensions in three rounds of the survey. Finally, a total of 28 factors were analyzed and ranked to develop an optimized CSFs model that has a significant impact on agile software development in China. The research findings provide a feasible set of CSFs for the effective implementation of agile software projects in China. This CSFs model also offers valuable insights for the broader adoption of agile practices in China, with the potential to greatly improve the success rate of agile software development and implementation.

Mangrove-based carbon market projects: What stakeholders need to address during pre-feasibility assessment.

Mangrove-based carbon market projects (MbCMP) aim to conserve, protect and restore mangrove habitats in order to generate high quality blue carbon credits via a crediting program, as a contribution to climate change mitigation/adaptation, biodiversity conservation, ecosystem services provision and local socio-economic development. The blue carbon credits generated are transferable, verifiable and sold through carbon markets to earn additional income for governments and local communities. The main aim of the paper is to provide important considerations for pre-field planning, that is, how challenges associated with fieldwork, project implementation, and monitoring reporting and verification (MRV) can be addressed with proper pre-field planning. Herein, we present a comprehensive list of some major concerns, which should be addressed by MbCMP developers and other stakeholders prior to embarking on fieldwork and project implementation. Moreover, we propose a methodological protocol and guideline principles for enhancing field data collection, project implementation and MRV planning. This should help address the major concerns that contribute to inaccurate and controversial baselines and project scenarios around MbCMP. By addressing these major concerns and adhering to the proposed methodological protocol and guideline principles during pre-field preparation planning, MbCMP developers and the respective MbCMP stakeholders can effectively improve the accuracy and efficiency of field data collection to estimate robust and reliable baseline and project scenarios. This will go a long way to building public trust, support and engagement in MbCMP to achieve the desired positive ecological, economic and social outcomes.

Clinical decision support to improve primary care obesity management in adults with diabetes: Clinic-randomized study design.

To promote use of lifestyle, pharmacologic, and surgical weight management options for adults with body mass index (BMI) ≥35 kg/m2 and type 2 diabetes (T2D), this project implements and evaluates a weight loss clinical decision support (WL-CDS) intervention that provides patient-specific estimates of the risks and benefits of evidence-based obesity management options to primary care clinicians (PCCs) and patients at primary care clinical encounters. We randomize 38 primary care clinics to either (a) usual care (UC), or (b) the WL- CDS intervention that provides patients and PCCs recommendations for lifestyle changes and patient-specific obesity management options and estimates of benefits and risks of weight loss medications, or metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) when indicated. Outcomes assessed at 18-months after a patient-specific index date are (a) referral of eligible patients for MBS evaluation; (b) initiation or active management of FDA-approved medications for weight loss; and (c) weight trajectory. Outcomes measured within 1 month of index date are patient-reported (d) shared decision making about weight loss options, and (e) intention to engage in weight loss. This study will deepen our understanding of how patients and PCCs use WL-CDS generated information to inform selection of obesity care options for adults with T2D and BMI ≥35 kg/m2.

Regional Features, Patterns and Experience of the Economic Life of the City of Sevastopol in the Second Half of the 19th – early 20th Centuries

The article explores the economic growth of the city of Sevastopol during the second half of the 19th and early 20th centuries, focusing on the most significant sectors of the city’s economy. The authors identify four distinct stages of development in the city during this period. The first stage, which lasted from the late 1850s to the late 1860s, was marked by a period of recession. This was due to limited budget financing and military spending, as well as the ineffectiveness of government stimulus measures. The second stage, which spanned from the early 1870s to the late 1890s, saw active recovery and economic growth. This period was marked by the lifting of restrictions on the fleet’s base in the Black Sea, the construction of the Lozovo-Sevastopol railway, and the transformation of Sevastopol into an independent territorial unit. The third stage, which lasted until 1910, was characterized by stagnation due to the closure of the commercial port and the revolutionary movement. This stagnation was evident in the slow growth of urban incomes, a decrease in foreign trade turnover, and a slow implementation of major projects. The fourth and final stage, which lasted from 1910 to 1915, saw the revival of the city’s economy. This period saw thelaunch of major urban improvement projects such as the construction of a floating sewer system, a hydropathic hospital, a coastal port in Streletskaya Bay, and the completion of a water pipeline. The study concludes that the city’s economy developed quite actively, but at the same time unevenly, due to the influence of various internal and external factors.

Assessing the Flood and Riverbank Erosion Impacts and Coping Strategies in Hatia Union of Ulipur, Kurigram, Bangladesh

The present paper aims to focus on the flood and riverbank erosion impacts and coping strategies in Hatia Union of Ulipur, Kurigram of Bangladesh. Due to the prevailing geographical location and topographical features, Bangladesh is considered as one of the most disaster-prone countries in the world. Kurigram district, located in the northern part of Bangladesh, is particularly flood and riverbank erosion prone because of its extensive river networks and its location within the Teesta-Brahmaputra River basin. Hatia Union of Ulipur Upazila was chosen as the study area due to its susceptibility to these disasters. In order to identify the flood and riverbank erosion impacts and coping strategies, field level data and information were collected through field survey and interviewing the respondents. Using ArcGIS Pro software, Sentinel-1 (SAR) and LANDSAT images with a resolution of 30 meters, the flood and riverbank erosion maps were produced. Floods and riverbank erosion both have significant impacts on local communication, food, shelter, health, employment, security, and people’s movement. Local people suffer a lot and their lives and livelihoods are affected severely by these disaster events. The affected communities undertake various coping strategies with the support of governmental and non-governmental organizations to overcome the incumbent impacts of flood and riverbank erosion. Policy level development and effective implementation of various projects and programs prioritizing the most vulnerable areas, focusing on socio-economic advancement, and resolving relevant issues can limit the sufferings of local people.

Diaper Dermatitis Algorithm and Scoring Tool in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU): A Quality Improvement Project.

The purpose of this quality improvement project was to implement and evaluate an algorithm for management and prevention of diaper dermatitis (DD) embedded in a scoring tool. The specific aim of the project was to decrease DD occurrences with a severity score of 3 to 4 by 25%. Quality improvement participants comprised 164 neonates; 89 were cared for prior to project implementation and 75 post-implementation. Data were collected over a 3-month period. The setting of this quality improvement project was a 98-bed, Level IV neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) located in the Midwestern United States (Oklahoma City, OK). The NICU is part of a freestanding children's hospital affiliated with a university. Diaper dermatitis occurrences and severity scores were collected prior to and 3 months after the protocol was implemented in the NICU. We collected pre-implementation data, followed by staff education concerning the DD protocol. We also provide guidance for protocol implementation at the bedside and in our Electronic Medical Record. Data on DD rates and severity were provided during the National Database for Nurse Quality Indicators (NDNQI) prevalence days the 4th quarter of 2020 and the 1st quarter of 2021. We compared data before and after protocol implementation to evaluate its effect on DD rates and severity. Analysis before and after implementation of the protocol showed no significant differences in DD occurrences or severity scores. The unintended introduction of water-based cleansing wipes was identified as a confounding factor that we believe influenced outcomes. The DD scoring system and algorithm were permanently implemented for DD score quantification, DD management and treatment guidance, and ease of DD documentation with interventions, despite non-significant group differences. Next steps for this project are to implement the water-based cleansing wipes facility wide, along with the scoring tool and DD prevention protocol.

ENVIRONMENT IMPACTS OF BUILDING CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS EXECUTION IN IBADAN METROPOLIS, OYO STATE, NIGERIA

Rapid industrialization and population explosion has led to increasing need for building construction projects to either provide shelter or for business ventures in urbanizing areas. A survey research design which made use of questionnaire to elicit relevant information from the respondents comprise the people (residents and shop owners) domiciled where building construction projects are executed located in three (3) urbanising LGAs in Ibadan metropolis namely, Egbeda, Lagelu and Akinyele. A sample size of 384 was arrived at using surveymonkey sample size calculation for unknown population. The study revealed harmful effect of building constructions projects as “ecological impact” with grand Relative Impact Index (RII) value of 0.96(1st) posed to have most harmful effect from activities of construction firms in the study area. This is followed by that “pollution impact” having a grand RII of 0.94(2nd) and then “energy impact” with grand RII value of 0.92(3rd). The third objective on evaluation of steps taken by construction firms in abating the harmful effects of their construction activities in the study area reveals that the respondent are highly dissatisfied with mitigation measures put in place by the construction firms with mean item scores ranging from 1.27 to 2.48. The study’s hypothesis was retained, thus upholds that Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) mitigations measure put in place by constructions firms do not have significant effect implementation of building construction projects as P-value of 0.396 at 95% significant level. The stud established that building construction projects have over time had major environmental impact in the study area causing significant destruction to the ecosystem, natural resources depletion and compromised public health hygiene. The study therefore recommends that huge fine and sanctions should be imposed on EIA report defaulters and ministry of environment should devise mechanism to ensure strict site monitoring to ensure enforcement of EIA report.

This study reveals differences in the levels of significance among these factors, their categorization and their existence, particularly between listed and non-listed heritage buildings. Moreover, it shows the remarkable impact of public-private collaboration from the early stages of decision-making through project implementation. The study confirms that a successful real-world project addresses a significant proportion of the success factors identified in the literature.Originality/valueThis research facilitates the decision-making process for stakeholders and practitioners in adaptive reuse projects, aiming to foster the development of more successful initiatives in this field.

A Study on Guidelines for Constructing Building Digital Twin Data

In South Korea, to systematically share and operate data related to the national level of the digital twin, a reference model standard for the National Digital Twin (NDT) concept was established in 2021. This was followed by the Korean Industrial Standards (KS) for buildings. Despite these efforts, the implementation of digital twin projects faces challenges owing to a low level of understanding of the standards and the absence of a standardized data construction process. Consequently, data construction that adheres to these standards is not being accomplished. Additionally, a lack of understanding of data models, semantic elements, and GML editing methods has led to the creation of appearance-focused data. To address these issues, this study proposes a digital twin data (building domain) construction guide that organizes geometric information, semantic information, and attribute information for building-related digital twin data components. This study aims to enable stakeholders to easily construct fundamental digital twin data in accordance with the standards, ensuring high-quality product creation that meets the requirements. Furthermore, the detailed data construction requirements defined in this guide will allow it to serve as a manual usable by both the public and private sectors. However, the proposed data model currently operates at a conceptual and logical level, which may limit its immediate applicability. Therefore, future research should include expert evaluations of the model and its transformation into a physical model that can be implemented and deployed on the relevant platform.

Resilient supply chains: advancing technology integration with pre- and post-disruption technology roadmap

PurposeIndustry 4.0 (I4.0) technologies are pivotal in enhancing supply chain resilience (SCRES). The extant literature identifies multiple antecedents of SCRES. However, the holistic impact of I4.0 technologies on all the antecedents of SCRES has not been rigorously studied. Practising managers have a limited understanding of the interrelationship of these technologies and their impact on each SCRES antecedent and its subfactors. This highlights the need for a comprehensive technology roadmap that integrates I4.0 technologies with SCRES antecedents and subfactors, benefiting both the pre- and post-disruption phases.Design/methodology/approachInterpretive structural modelling is used to develop the hierarchical structure of technologies based on their interrelationship. ANP-SVNTOPSIS (Analytic Network Process – Single Valued Neutrosophic Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) approach to quantify technology impact factors (TIFs) value of each technology corresponding to each antecedent of SCRES is applied.FindingsThe result reveals that data-driven technologies and additive manufacturing have the highest impact on SCRES. The detailed analysis of the TIF values identifies high-impacting technologies for each SCRES antecedent and subfactor. The results are used to propose a technology roadmap integrating I4.0 technologies with SCRES antecedents for pre- and post-disruption phases.Originality/valueThe positive impact of I4.0 technologies on SCRES is well established. However, many companies face challenges in their I4.0 implementation projects despite the manifold advantages. To the best of our knowledge, no previous research has conducted such a rigorous analysis at the individual technology level and SCRES antecedents to quantify the multifaceted dimensions of SCRES. The present study addresses this gap. Furthermore, it proposes a technology roadmap which incorporates pre- and post-disruption phases, which is its uniqueness.
