Public space revitalization is an important strategy in urban development aimed at improving the quality of urban environments while stimulating social interaction and local economic activities. This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the Motang Rua Field revitalization program in Manggarai Regency and assess the extent to which the program achieved its intended development objectives. The study employed a qualitative descriptive approach. Data were collected through field observations, in-depth interviews with key informants including local government officials, project contractors, small business actors, and community members, as well as documentation related to the revitalization program. Data were analyzed through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, supported by triangulation techniques to ensure data validity. The findings indicate that the revitalization program demonstrates a high level of relevance to community needs and aligns with the regional development vision of Ruteng Kota Molas. The implementation process shows strong coherence through effective inter-institutional coordination and consistency between planning and execution. The revitalization has also proven effective in improving public facilities, enhancing community social activities, and stimulating local economic growth through increased micro and small business activities. Furthermore, the program was implemented efficiently in terms of budget management and project timeline. The revitalization also contributes to strengthening socio-cultural values through the preservation of the historical figure Motang Rua and shows strong sustainability potential through increased public utilization of the revitalized space.

Indonesia’s Oil and gas project construction continue face challenges notably delays that lead to underperformance. This study tries to describe the factors that causing delays in EPC oil and gas project in Indonesia from project management view. Started by overall study on cause of delays in construction worldwide, thus phenomenon on neighboring country (Malaysia) where Indonesian workers involved, then study continues with factors in Indonesia as overall, and include specific project which are South Sumatera and Sumbawa. Three main factors are always present in the cause of delays in EPC Project in Indonesia namely; contractor’s financial problem in funding the project, poor project planning and estimation leads to unrealistic determination of the duration, and ineffective change management by owner in project showed in resolving contract dispute, requirement changes, and dispute in understanding in contract articles. These factors are clearly present in EPC projects in Indonesia as main contributor in project delays together with two additional factors namely legal awareness and social community problems.

This research looks into how site managers in construction projects in Malang City manage and improve their use of human resources. The research is driven by the significance of effective human resource management in ensuring project success and the lack of studies focusing on the operational strategies of site managers within a local context. This study uses a quantitative method that is both descriptive and analytical. It involves giving out a survey to 40 people, including site managers, contractors, and foremen. The independent variables include leadership and supervisory style, human resource planning and workforce allocation, training and competency development, team communication and coordination, performance monitoring and evaluation, as well as motivation and welfare. The dependent variable is the degree to which human resource management is optimized. The results of validity and reliability tests indicate that all research instruments are valid and reliable. Multiple linear regression analysis shows that leadership and supervisory style, along with human resource planning and workforce allocation, have a significant partial effect on improving HRM practices. Other variables have a positive but statistically insignificant partial effect on the estate. Overall, the management of human resources in construction projects in Malang City is considered to be fairly good. This study confirms that leadership and workforce planning are the main strategic factors for site managers in improving the effectiveness of human resource management in construction projects.

PT. XYZ faces administrative challenges in implementing the Contractor Safety Management System (CSMS), which has been managed manually from risk assessment and pre-qualification to contractor selection resulting in validation delays, document duplication, and limited monitoring. This study aims to: (1) identify the constraints of the manual CSMS at PT. XYZ; (2) design an electronic-CSMS (e-CSMS) application tailored to internal user needs; (3) analyze the contribution of e-CSMS to document management effectiveness; and (4) evaluate the design's alignment with the Occupational Health and Safety Management System (SMK3) principles as per Government Regulation No. 50 of 2012. The method employed is Research and Development (preliminary stage) using a descriptive qualitative approach through interviews, observations, and document studies. The design results include: (i) a unified digital form integrating procurement data input, risk assessment entries (severity and probability), and document upload and assessment for pre-qualification/selection in a single workflow; (ii) a monitoring dashboard with filtering and export functions; and (iii) internal access settings within PT. XYZ's HSSE portal. Functionally, this design addresses the main bottlenecks of the manual process by creating a more concise, structured, and documented verification workflow, thereby making document management more efficient and traceable. In terms of compliance, e-CSMS supports the implementation of SMK3 elements in the administrative domain of policy establishment, planning, and execution of OHS plans through consistent recording and verification mechanisms. Development recommendations include expansion to field implementation phases, automation of risk-level calculations, and an option for preliminary data entry by contractors with final verification remaining with the internal team.

Road preservation is a type of maintenance that keeps roads in satisfactory working order by using preventive, corrective, rehabilitation, and reconstruction methods. This approach makes sure that the road stays usable for the entire time it is planned to be used. In practice, preservation projects often run into delays that can lead to important contract conditions. To avoid this, there needs to be a structured way to evaluate things through a Show Case Meeting (SCM). This study looks at how SCM was used in the 2024 Girian–Kema–Rumbia–Buyat Road Preservation Project to find out what caused the delays and how well the agreed-upon fixes worked. The method included looking at physical progress, differences between planned and actual performance, and how well the contractor did during SCM Stages I and II. The results indicate that the contractor failed to provide enough workers and move the right equipment, which led to the critical contract condition. SCM Stage I did not meet the required test-case target, but SCM Stage II did, showing that the contractor was able to meet the required performance targets and finish the work on time. These results show that SCM is an important way to control contracts and fix problems, which helps construction projects get done on time and well.
