The 2025 Thematic Community Service Program (KKN-T) for the R3 group of Janabadra University Yogyakarta was held in Tangisan Hamlet, Banyurejo Village, Tempel Subdistrict, Sleman Regency. Tangisan Hamlet has various local potentials that can be developed, such as a productive agricultural sector, active social institutions, and a rich cultural heritage. However, this area also faces several challenges that need to be addressed, including low legal literacy among the community, a high potential for juvenile delinquency, and limited public information support facilities in the hamlet. In implementing the KKN-T program, a participatory approach was applied by involving the local community from the planning stage to the evaluation. The process began with field observations to understand the actual conditions in the community, then continued with the formulation of a work program developed in collaboration with community leaders and village officials. The programs implemented included the installation of information signs in Javanese script at strategic points as part of supporting the "Culturally Independent Village" program. In addition, socialization was conducted regarding laws related to online loans and juvenile delinquency, which aimed to increase public understanding of legal issues. At Banyurejo 4 Public Elementary School, anti-bullying education is being conducted to raise students' awareness of the importance of mutual respect. Furthermore, at the Integrated Service Post (Posyandu) for toddlers, nutritious supplementary food using local foods is provided to support children's health in the area. All implemented programs are based on the actual needs of the community, identified through discussions and deliberations with community leaders. Through this Community Service Program (KKN-T) activity, it is hoped that a strong synergy will be established between students, the community, and the village government in promoting sustainable and independent village development. This program is expected to provide direct benefits to the community and pave the way for better village development in the future.

This study analyzes social change in Ponggok Village, Klaten, Central Java, from an impoverished village to a self-sufficient one, utilizing Talcott Parsons' structural functionalist framework and the AGIL model (Adaptation, Goal Attainment, Integration, Latency). Prior to 2006, Ponggok Village faced poverty, inadequate infrastructure, and limited employment opportunities, despite its significant potential for spring water. The transformation began in 2009-2013 with collaboration between the village head and academics for potential mapping and the establishment of the Village-Owned Enterprise (BUMDes) Tirta Mandiri. The period from 2014 to 2018 marked a "golden era" with the implementation of the Village Law of 2014, increased village funds, and peak revenues from Umbul Ponggok. However, from 2019-2023, the village experienced a significant decline due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A descriptive qualitative research method with a case study approach was employed, dividing the timeline into three periods (2009-2013, 2014-2018, 2019-2023). Data were collected through Focus Group Discussions, interviews, and literature reviews. The research findings demonstrate how Ponggok Village systematically fulfills the AGIL functional prerequisites by examining socio-economic policies through policies implemented by the Village Government, Village Consultative Body (BPD), and Village-Owned Enterprise (BUMDes) in efforts to improve quality of life, foster social integration among stakeholders, and maintain values through sustainable programs aimed at achieving and sustaining the success of its transformation. These findings provide a holistic understanding of the village’s resilience and adaptability in facing social and economic challenges.

The research was conducted in the construction department which has around 90 employees with a high workload and a less supportive work environment. The problem in this study is how the workload and work environment affect employee productivity, while the purpose of the study is to determine the effect of workload and work environment on employee productivity. The method used in the study is the multiple linear regression analysis method with a sample of 65 employees. Testing was carried out using the F test and t test and calculating the determination factor.

This study examines the potential for digital branding transformation of Mitra Havana Sulung Mandiri, a construction service company in East Java, through the utilization of TikTok as a promotional platform. Using observations and interviews, the research identified strong visual content opportunities from the company’s activities, such as documenting construction progress, showcasing before-and-after project visuals, and sharing client testimonials. These elements offer significant storytelling potential for engaging online audiences. However, several internal barriers hinder optimal implementation. These include limited digital literacy among staff, inadequate content creation tools, and the absence of standardized procedures for producing and publishing content. Externally, skepticism toward social media marketing in the construction sector and the unpredictability of TikTok’s algorithm also create challenges. Thematic analysis revealed three primary needs: maximizing existing visual assets to create compelling narratives, enhancing internal capacity through targeted digital training, and developing a culture that supports continuous digital engagement. To address these, the study proposes an initial strategy involving educational content, behind-the-scenes videos, and a clear content production guide. In addition, it suggests forming a dedicated social media team, running a 30-day continuous content campaign, and collaborating with local creators to expand reach. These recommendations align with existing literature on the role of short-form video in increasing brand awareness, credibility, and trust in service-oriented industries. By integrating strategic content planning, capacity building, and consistent online engagement, construction SMEs can position themselves competitively in the evolving digital marketplace. The case of Mitra Havana Sulung Mandiri demonstrates that even in traditionally offline industries, leveraging TikTok can offer a pathway toward brand differentiation and long-term audience growth.

Manual stock management systems are still commonly used in electrical equipment sales businesses, often leading to problems such as inaccurate data recording, delayed reporting, and potential data loss. To overcome these issues, a web-based inventory management information system was developed to automate the recording of incoming goods, outgoing goods, damaged items, and lost items. A case study was conducted at Toko Dhanisa Mandiri Jaya, which previously relied on manual bookkeeping using physical logs. The system was developed using the Waterfall method, involving stages such as requirements analysis, system design, implementation, testing, and maintenance. Data collection was carried out through observation, interviews, and literature review. The system includes key features such as inventory data management, transaction processing, reporting, and user management. The implementation results indicate improved operational efficiency, reduced recording errors, and the availability of real-time inventory data to support managerial decision-making. This system is expected to help the store modernize its business processes with better accuracy and control.

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.

The transformation of Ponggok Village from an underdeveloped village to an independent village with a PADes (Village Revenue Fund) of Rp16 billion demonstrates the successful synergy between the Village Government and the Village-Owned Enterprise (BUMDes) in managing local tourism potential, particularly umbul tourism. This study aims to analyze the form of synergy between the Village Government and BUMDes Tirta Mandiri in managing water tourism in Ponggok Village based on Mark Latash's synergy theory, which includes three pillars: sharing, error compensation, and task-dependence. This study employs a descriptive-qualitative method with a case study approach through field observations and in-depth interviews. The results indicate that the success of tourism management does not solely depend on the institutional capacity of each party but also on their ability to adapt and coordinate across sectors. The collaboration formed has resulted in sustainable tourism management, contributing to increased village economy, community empowerment, and environmental conservation.

This research explores the institutional capabilities of Local Government and BUMDes Tirta Mandiri in managing the tourism potential of Umbul in Ponggok Village, Klaten Regency.
