UD. Sarigut Bakery is known as one of several industries that focus on processing bread specifically in the Banda Aceh City area that seeks to produce with a variety of bread. The purpose of this study is to carry out efforts to identify, measure efforts, and analyzing efforts to the phase known to be the cause of the decline in quality of the production process of meses bread through a series of stages of the DMAIC SIX SIGMA methodology. It is known that the main problem is the discovery of disability with a total of 4,096 of the total production of the production of 21896 with a period of 3 months specifically in the dominant disability of Meses bread in the percentage of 81.29%. With the dominant of the disability itself the disability that comes in damaged bread with a percentage of 36.49% present from all of the total disability of related meses bread. After the assessment effort, the DPMO value was obtained by 26723.74 so that there were several levels of Sigma 3, which means it was still far from the world industry level which reached 6σ (3.4 DPMO). Efforts to analyze the data carried out by applying the Fishbone and FMEA (Failure Mode and Effect Analysis) diagrams are known to be related to the cause of the presence of disability from damaged bread with 3 modes of failure in potential, namely bread that is not filled with chocolate with a value of 20, the upper bread with a value of RPN of 80 and failure mode on broken bread with the highest RPN value of 90.

The purpose of this study is to determine how the regulation and implementation of legal protection for lenders in cases of default based on the Financial Services Authority Regulation (POJK) No. 77/POJK.01/2016 concerning Information Technology-Based Money Lending Services. This study also examines the form of legal responsibility of the platform organizer, as well as dispute resolution efforts that can be taken by lenders. The research method used is the normative legal method with a statutory regulatory approach and case studies. Data were obtained through literature studies and documentation of applicable legal provisions, as well as relevant documents and reports from PT. Crowde. The analysis was carried out qualitatively-descriptively to assess the suitability between field practices and applicable regulations. The results of the study indicate that POJK No. 77/POJK.01/2016 has not fully provided comprehensive legal protection for lenders in cases of default. Legal responsibility for default is still largely borne by the civil relationship between the borrower and the lender, without any concrete risk recovery mechanism from the organizer. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen regulations, increase platform transparency, and play an active role for the OJK and the Indonesian Joint Funding Fintech Association (AFPI) in supervising and following up on default cases.

This The maintenance objectives of a C6240A-type lathe involve a number of crucial aspects, including gears, tool bits, toolposts, lower sled and upper sled. This study was to investigate effective maintenance strategies for each of these components, focusing on preventive and predictive maintenance. Gears: Regular lubrication is also necessary to ensure smooth gear movement and prevent excessive friction that could lead to failure. Chisel Bits: Monitoring the condition of the tool blade needs to be done regularly. Toolpost: The toolpost needs to be checked periodically to ensure availability and safety of the cutting tool. Bottom and Top Slings: Maintenance of the lower and upper slings involves checking for tension and wear. C6240A type lathe users can minimize the risk of failure, improve operational efficiency, and extend the life of the machine. The method used in this research is a qualitative method, by means of observation and interviews. The results of this study are that the gears can be more durable because lubrication is always given and not easily thirsty, the tool blade is not easily blunted because the workpiece is fed little by little, and frequent honing is done to keep it sharp. The locking toolpost is not easily damaged if you use a rubber hammer when locking, the bottom row makes a change of ashock so that it can do automatic turning. This maintenance can increase the life of the lathe for longer operation.

Predictive Maintenance is a maintenance activity that focuses on monitoring equipment conditions in real-time and analyzing data to predict potential failures before they occur, allowing repairs to be made in a timely manner before major damage occurs. One of the methods used in predictive maintenance is "Infrared Thermography” or use of technology thermal imaging technology. In the context of predictive maintenance, thermography can be used to identify problems that are not visible to the naked eye, such as poor electrical connections, excessive heat buildup, or damage to components that cause heat leakage The purpose of this study was to determine the implementation of Predictive Maintenance with Infrared Thermography method on electrical equipment at PT PHM. The method used in this research is the observation method with primary and secondary data collection. The results showed that the implementation of predictive maintenance with the Infrared Thermography method on electrical equipment and systems at PT PHM was effective in helping the company avoid unnecessary costs and improve operational efficiency. Predictive maintenance allows companies to perform maintenance to identify potential damage before it occurs and can take preventive action so as to reduce repair costs, and operational productivity.

The research took place at Wastec Internasional Company, a company engaged in environmental waste processing services. The oil from the crude oil waste processing treatment process still has Basic Sediment and Water (BS&W) content and oil content that is too high so that it cannot reach the established standards so that the company must make efforts to reduce waste from the production process. The purpose of the study was to determine the sigma value, the number of defects and factors causing quality failure in crude oil processing treatment at PT Wastec Internasional. The methods used are the DMAIC method, control maps and fishbone diagrams. The calculation results obtained an average BS & W sigma value of 3.4 and an oil content sigma value of 3.29. The average number of defects for BS&W was 9.075% and for oil content was 2113 mg/L. The factors causing treatment quality failure are material, method and environmental factors.

The Ripple Mill machine is one of the vital components in a Palm Oil Mill (PKS) that functions to separate the palm kernel from its shell. This process is very important because the quality and quantity of the palm kernel produced will directly affect the economic value and production efficiency in the palm oil industry. At PTPN IV Regional II Plantation Unit and Adolina PKS, various technical problems were found that caused a decrease in machine performance, including rotor bars and square bars that experienced wear due to age and improper machine settings. In addition, other damage that often occurs is a broken van belt due to age and excessive tension, feeder motor dysfunction caused by excessive load, and motor overheating that occurs due to age and high workload. To overcome these problems, this study uses the Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) method. This method aims to identify various potential failures, assess the severity, frequency of occurrence, and detection capability, so that the Risk Priority Number (RPN) value can be calculated as a basis for repair priorities. The results showed that worn rotor bars and worn square bars had the highest RPN values, each at 280, equivalent to 40.23% of the total identified risks. This indicates that these two components are critical points requiring immediate repair and maintenance attention. Applying FMEA in this context provides tangible benefits, including helping the company formulate a more targeted maintenance strategy, reducing the risk of recurring damage, and minimizing downtime that impacts production. With more systematic maintenance, operational efficiency can be improved while extending the lifespan of the Ripple Mill machine.

The church's diaconal practice faces a crisis of effectiveness. The dominant model of charitable diakonia (almsgiving) has proven ineffective in addressing the root causes of poverty and structural injustice. Empirical studies show that this failure is often not due to a lack of resources, but rather a failure of strategic management and a narrow theological understanding of diaconal practice itself. This research argues that to respond to poverty effectively, the church requires a dual paradigmatic shift. First, a theological shift in service from charitable diakonia to transformative diakonia, grounded in Liberation Theology and Reformed social justice spirituality. Second, a conceptual shift in "management" from a secular concept to the theological practice of "Transformative Oikonomia", a prophetic stewardship rooted in scripture (Acts 6) and ecumenical frameworks (WCC). Using a qualitative literature review methodology, the author reconstructs a management model for effective and just ministry. In this model, "effectiveness" is redefined and measured not by logistical outputs, but by two theological pillars: (1) Relational Effectiveness, measured by the Theology of Hospitality (Pohl), focusing on the restoration of human dignity; and (2) Structural Effectiveness, measured by tangible contributions to the JPIC (Justice, Peace, and Integrity of Creation) agenda. This study concludes that the Transformative Oikonomia model liberates the church from the "charity trap" and enables a holistic fulfillment of the Missio Dei.

Women entrepreneurship in Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) plays a vital role in the local economy. However, women entrepreneurs often face complex emotional and psychological challenges due to their dual roles as housewives and entrepreneurs. Market uncertainty, social pressure, and lack of support from their environment further burden their workload. This study aims to explore the subjective experiences of women micro MSMEs, particularly in dealing with the psychological pressures of carrying out these roles. The research method used is a qualitative phenomenological approach with seven informants from the culinary, handicraft, and online trading sectors. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and non-participant observation, then analyzed using a thematic approach based on the Miles & Huberman model. The results of the study revealed four main themes: (1) the pressure of dual roles that often trigger stress and emotional exhaustion (burnout), (2) chronic anxiety related to fear of business failure and income instability, (3) spirituality and religious activities as meaning-based coping mechanisms, and (4) the importance of social support from partners, family, and community as a balance of emotional conditions. These findings confirm that the success and sustainability of women's businesses depend not only on economic capital or technical skills, but are also significantly influenced by mental health and the strength of social networks. Therefore, empowerment programs for women's MSMEs need to be designed holistically, encompassing psychosocial aspects, coping strategy training, and strengthening supportive and inclusive social networks.

The moral crisis and rampant corruption among Christian leaders pose serious challenges that erode the credibility and integrity of religious institutions. This phenomenon not only tarnishes the image of Christianity institutionally but also weakens the foundation of ethics and spiritual values that should guide the lives of the congregation. This issue becomes even more pressing when it occurs in the realm of Christian education, a place where future leaders should be formed. This study aims to analyze Jonathan Lamb's concept of integrity as a strategic framework for addressing this crisis, especially in the context of Christian educational institutions. Using a qualitative approach and literature review, this study highlights Lamb's holistic view of integrity, which encompasses three main dimensions: wholeness of the person (wholeness), consistency between beliefs and actions (consistency), and full accountability to God (accountability to God). Lamb's concept of integrity is highly relevant amidst the increasing need for leaders who are not only competent but also possess proven character. The findings of this study indicate that to effectively implement the concept of integrity, Christian educational institutions need to take a two-pronged approach: first, comprehensively reform the curriculum so that integrity values are not only a separate subject, but are integrated into all disciplines and learning activities; Second, building an institutional culture that emphasizes moral exemplarity from leaders, lecturers, and educational staff. Furthermore, a sustainable character development system, transparent accountability evaluation, and open ethical discussion are needed. Education is not only about knowledge transfer, but also about character transformation. Therefore, integrity must be seen as the core of Christian education, not an add-on. This study concludes that Lamb's concept of integrity can be a transformative model that encourages the formation of future leaders with strong character, prevents moral failure, and restores public trust in Christian institutions

Background: Islamic inheritance law represents a critical component of family law systems that extends beyond religious obligations to encompass significant socio-economic implications for asset distribution and intergenerational justice. While Malaysia and Brunei Darussalam have both incorporated Islamic law into their national legal frameworks, their implementation approaches demonstrate fundamental structural and procedural differences that warrant systematic comparative analysis. Objective: This study examines the institutional frameworks and implementation effectiveness of Islamic inheritance law systems in Malaysia and Brunei Darussalam, analyzing how constitutional arrangements and governmental approaches influence the practical application of faraid principles. Methods: This research employs a normative legal methodology utilizing comparative analysis of legal frameworks, institutional structures, and judicial decisions. The study analyzes primary legal sources including constitutional provisions, statutory laws, court decisions, and administrative guidelines from both jurisdictions. Data collection encompassed library research examining fiqh literature, national legislation, official documents, scholarly articles, and religious legal opinions. Theoretical frameworks of legal pluralism (Romano-Gierke), Maqasid al-Shariah, and Hartian legal positivism provide analytical foundations for institutional effectiveness assessment. Results: Malaysia's dual legal system creates jurisdictional tensions between Syariah and civil courts, particularly regarding immovable property administration, resulting in administrative complexity and legal uncertainty that undermines Islamic law effectiveness. Conversely, Brunei's centralized Islamic legal framework demonstrates superior institutional coherence through exclusive Syariah court jurisdiction, enabling direct faraid implementation without inter-court conflicts. The study reveals that approximately RM42 billion in Muslim inheritance remains undistributed in Malaysia due to systematic administrative failures, while Brunei's unified approach achieves greater legal certainty and administrative efficiency. Conclusions: Institutional structures fundamentally determine Islamic inheritance law implementation effectiveness in contemporary Muslim societies. Successful Islamic law implementation requires comprehensive institutional support aligning legal structures with religious objectives rather than mere constitutional recognition. Malaysia's fragmented system inadvertently undermines Islamic law's divine authority through secular intervention, while Brunei's unified approach enhances religious legitimacy and community compliance.

A landslide that occurred on May 24, 2024, in Pekon Datarajan, Ulubelu District, Tanggamus, Lampung, caused significant disruption to provincial road access and resulted in material losses. This study aims to assess the post-failure slope stability through field geotechnical investigation and numerical analysis using the Limit Equilibrium Method (LEM), and to propose immediate countermeasures. The slope materials consist of MH (inorganic silt) and ML (elastic silt) with high moisture content and moderate to high swelling potential. The lithology is dominated by montmorillonite clay, which has hygroscopic characteristics, making it highly vulnerable to water infiltration that reduces shear strength and increases the risk of slope failure. Stability analysis indicates a post-failure factor of safety (FoS) of 1.36 (static loading) and 1.03 (dynamic loading), which decreases to 1.07 beneath raised groundwater conditions. Recommended immediate mitigation includes surface runoff control, the construction of impermeable drainage systems, the sealing of cracks using impermeable materials, and the installation of temporary slope reinforcements such as sheet piles. The implementation of these measures increased the FoS to 1.61 (static loading) and 1.16 (dynamic loading). This study provides a technical basis for the rapid and effective mitigation of landslides in areas with similar geological and hydrological conditions.

Machine translation (MT), especially neural machine translation (NMT) technology, has made significant progress in producing more natural and fluent translations. However, this technology still faces major challenges related to cultural sensitivity, where idiomatic, philosophical, and social contextual meanings often fail to be captured accurately. Through a qualitative literature review, this article examines the main challenges faced by machine translation in understanding and reproducing cultural nuances. The analysis shows that NMT systems have limitations in translating philosophical terms and idioms, tend to be biased due to the dominance of English-language data, and ignore the metalinguistic awareness of humans. Failure to capture these cultural dimensions not only risks losing the authentic meaning of the message but can also accelerate the loss of local languages. This study concludes that the role of humans remains irreplaceable in translating highly cultural texts. Therefore, a hybrid approach that combines technology with human intervention ( human-in-the-loop ) and the development of models trained with more culturally diverse data is recommended to produce inclusive and ethical translations.  

Digital transformation of government has become a priority agenda in smart city development in Indonesia. This study analyzes the digital transformation strategies implemented by various local governments in adopting smart city technology through a comparative study approach. Using a qualitative methodology with multi-case analysis, this study examines five cities in Indonesia that have implemented smart city initiatives: Jakarta, Surabaya, Bandung, Yogyakarta, and Makassar. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with key stakeholders, field observations, and policy document analysis. The findings show that the success of smart city implementation is influenced by transformational leadership factors, digital infrastructure readiness, multi-stakeholder collaboration, and human resource capacity. Implementation failures are mainly caused by budget constraints, resistance to organizational change, and lack of system integration. This study provides theoretical contributions in the development of a digital transformation framework for government and practical contributions in the preparation of a smart city roadmap in Indonesia.

Putra Muba Coal is one of the subsidiaries under the MNC Group, operating in the coal mining sector with an IUP (Mining Business Permit) area covering 2,947 hectares. During its mining operations at the Pandu Pit, PT. Putra Muba Coal experienced a landslide incident on the highwall side. Therefore, a back-analysis using the deterministic method was conducted to determine the material property values that led to the slope failure in the mining area. The slope material consists of claystone and siltstone layers, each with a cohesion value of 192.3 kN/m² and 157.0 kN/m², and internal friction angles of 25.3° and 24.4°, respectively. Based on the back-analysis results, it was found that there was a decrease in material property values, with cohesion reduced by 91% and the internal friction angle reduced by 29%. This reduction in material properties suggests that the decrease in cohesion was the primary factor causing the highwall slope failure, as indicated by the back-analysis of slope stability which resulted in a safety factor of (SF = 1.008).

An open pit exploitation activity will become less effective and cause production to not run well, resulting in the failure to meet production targets at PT. Indominco Mandiri. Therefore, to achieve production targets and obtain more optimal results, we need to plan the Design Pit Limit. The purpose of this research is to optimize the pit, find the BESR value, and compare the differences between two methods. The Lerch Grossman 2D algorithm method is believed to be able to determine the optimal pit boundary quite quickly, while the Minescape with its triangle method can calculate some unreadable sides quite accurately. The Lerch Grossman method with its economic blocks indicates that an elevation of 72 mdpl is the outer boundary of the pit that has the potential to generate a profit of $20,194,836.59, with the best consideration being a Stripping Ratio of 1:21.08. With that lower limit, an optimal pit design was created using minescape software, resulting in a coal reserve value of 1,581,870.42 tons with a profit of $14,590,646.75, which is larger and with a smaller SR of 1:19.06.

Entrepreneurs in the digital era face constant challenges that require adaptation and innovation. Although economic and managerial factors are often the focus, the role of psychological dimensions such as resilience and creativity in entrepreneurial success has not been widely reviewed in depth. This study aims to examine relevant theories and findings on psychological resilience and creativity in the context of entrepreneurship, and to build a conceptual framework to support entrepreneurial innovation. Using a qualitative literature study method, this study systematically searches, analyzes, and synthesizes scientific literature from various databases. The results of the synthesis indicate that psychological resilience is crucial for entrepreneurs to recover from failure and adapt to change. Characteristics such as optimism and emotional regulation are the pillars of mental resilience. Meanwhile, creativity is an innovation engine that facilitates the identification of new opportunities and the development of unique solutions. A synergistic relationship between resilience and creativity is also found: resilience provides a psychological buffer for taking creative risks, and the creative process can strengthen self-resilience. The theoretical implication is the need for a more holistic entrepreneurship model. In practice, this study recommends educational institutions, especially the Faculty of Psychology, to integrate the development of resilience and creativity into the entrepreneurship curriculum.

The viral phenomenon of #IndonesiaGelap on social media in early 2025 reflects symptoms of socio-political disorganization in Indonesia. This hashtag symbolizes public and student unrest concerning the crisis of institutional legitimacy, weakened regulatory functions, and the erosion of public trust. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study method, focusing on student protests at Universitas Negeri Jakarta (UNJ) as a response to perceived political injustice. Using the framework of structural functionalism and Émile Durkheim’s concept of anomie, the movement is interpreted as an adaptive response to systemic failure in providing legitimate channels for justice and democracy. Although it has not resulted in direct policy change, the movement has raised collective awareness, expanded public discourse, and reaffirmed the role of students as agents of change in the digital age. The study recommends collaboration among students, government, and civil society to create a more inclusive and responsive socio-political system.

A business incubator is a forum or institution that aims to foster, guide, and accelerate the growth of start-up businesses by providing resource support such as training, funding, network access, and operational facilities. This study aims to determine the Effectiveness of Technology-Based Business Incubation Programs in Increasing Startup Growth. The method used in this study is a qualitative descriptive approach with literature studies as the main data collection technique. The results of the study indicate that business incubators play an important role in reducing the failure rate of digital startups, increasing competitiveness, and accelerating the commercialization process of digital products and services. An effective incubator is characterized by the ability to provide relevant mentoring programs, mentoring from industry practitioners, and access to funding sources. The conclusion of this study states that the existence of business incubators significantly supports the growth and sustainability of digital startups, but their success still depends heavily on the quality of incubation services and the internal readiness of startups to receive coaching.

Since the implementation of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) at the end of 2015, all economic actors—including SMEs and microenterprises—are expected to improve and adapt in order to enhance the quality of both goods and services. Failure to do so may result in Indonesia becoming a "soft target" market for other ASEAN countries, given its status as the most populous country in the region with over 270 million people. SMEs and microenterprises, which represent the embodiment of people-based economic democracy, would be particularly vulnerable if goods and services from various ASEAN countries continue to flood the Indonesian market. Recognizing this situation, empowering SMEs and microenterprises is not only necessary but inevitable to help the nation discover its identity through the development of comparative and competitive advantages. This activity began by identifying existing problems, followed by determining suitable solutions. The method used involves training and mentoring.The outcome of this initiative is the improved capability of the traditional cake microenterprise to optimize its sales by using locally sourced raw materials. As a result, the "Puji Lestari" Traditional Cake Microenterprise has successfully enhanced its production capacity and business management.Financial reporting is also a crucial aspect of business development. A well-maintained financial report reflects the progress of the business, particularly through the net profits it generates. These outcomes serve as indicators of increased empowerment and the strengthening of the enterprise.
