Factors influencing the smooth casting process include the regularity of truck mixer arrival intervals and the work cycle of the truck concrete pump. This study aims to analyze the effect of truck mixer intervals and truck concrete pump performance on the productivity of pierhead casting at Pierhead P37S on the Solo–Yogyakarta–NYIA Toll Road Project, Section 2 Package 2.1A. The analysis method used field observation through time study techniques to measure the cycle duration of truck mixers and the operating time of the truck concrete pump. The analysis stages included calculating cycle time, productivity, production capacity, and working duration of each equipment. The results show that the truck concrete pump achieved a productivity of 0.425 m³/minute, while the truck mixer reached 0.989 m³/minute. These values were influenced by cycle time, equipment condition, work area condition, execution method, and work volume. Based on duration analysis, the truck concrete pump required about 4.7 hours to complete the casting of 120 m³ of ready-mix concrete, while the truck mixer required 2.022 hours to support the concrete supply process.

Churches and Christian institutions frequently face the challenge of congregations whose understanding of ministry remains confined to the spiritual dimension alone, while the holistic ministry mandate calls for active engagement across social, educational, and economic spheres. This study examines two primary objectives: first, how Christian Religious Education (CRE) shapes congregational understanding of holistic church ministry; and second, how CRE equips congregants with the concrete capacity to serve comprehensively. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed at Yayasan Sola Gratia Medan. Data were gathered through in-depth interviews with seven informants comprising foundation leaders, program coordinators, active church members, volunteers, and beneficiaries. Analysis followed a thematic framework encompassing data reduction, display, and conclusion drawing. Findings reveal that: (1) consistent CRE implementation at Yayasan Sola Gratia has successfully shifted the congregational ministry paradigm from exclusively spiritual to holistically transformative; and (2) congregants who have internalized CRE values demonstrate more structured ministry capacity, stronger theological motivation, and significant cross-dimensional engagement. This research contributes a contextual CRE model relevant for church-based institutions operating in multidimensional urban environments.

Government procurement plays a strategic role in supporting effective, efficient, transparent, and accountable public administration. To promote procurement reform, the government has implemented an electronic procurement system through the Electronic Procurement Service (LPSE). The implementation of the Electronic Procurement System (SPSE) in Pematang Siantar City aims to improve procurement quality, reduce irregularities, and accelerate the delivery of goods and services. However, several challenges persist, including limited human resources capable of operating the system, technical disruptions, lack of outreach to local vendors, and weak coordination between the Procurement Unit (UKPBJ) and related agencies. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of SPSE implementation in Pematang Siantar City. The research uses a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through interviews with UKPBJ officials and procurement officers from several local government units, direct observation of procurement activities via SPSE, and documentation review. Data analysis employed Duncan’s effectiveness indicators: goal attainment, integration, and adaptation. The results show that SPSE implementation has not been fully effective. In terms of goal attainment, procurement processes follow established procedures, but delays still occur due to system disruptions and limited user competence. In terms of integration, coordination between UKPBJ and technical units remains suboptimal, affecting communication and oversight. Regarding adaptation, although the information technology infrastructure is adequate, human resource capacity is still limited. Therefore, improving human resources, strengthening coordination, and enhancing system reliability are necessary to achieve optimal effectiveness.

Indonesia's maritime security faces increasingly complex challenges due to the rise of hybrid threats that combine traditional and non-traditional elements. One of the main threats is the shadow fleet, operating covertly with unregistered ships, evading detection, and exploiting weaknesses in maritime surveillance to engage in illegal activities such as smuggling, illegal transshipment, and unlawful exploitation of natural resources. This phenomenon exacerbates Indonesia's maritime security situation, particularly in strategic areas like the Natuna Sea and the Sunda Strait, which are vulnerable to geopolitical conflicts and overlapping territorial claims. Additionally, transnational crimes such as piracy, drug trafficking, and human trafficking further undermine security in Indonesian waters. To address these threats, Indonesia needs to strengthen its maritime surveillance capacity by adopting advanced technologies such as early detection sistems and the Automatic Identification Sistem (AIS), as well as enhancing coordination between maritime agencies like Bakamla and the Indonesian Navy (TNI AL) to improve responses to harder-to-detect threats. Moreover, international cooperation with neighboring countries and regional maritime organizations like ASEAN must be bolstered to tackle cross-border threats. Strengthening surveillance, modernizing technology, and fostering more integrative maritime diplomacy will be crucial in safeguarding Indonesia's maritime sovereignty and ensuring the stability of this increasingly strategic maritime region.

This study aims to analyze the utilization of Community Forestry, the role of farmers group, and the perceptions of livestock farmers who are members of “HKm Ulusena” Farmers Group regarding the utilization of the Ulusena Community Forest. This study was conducted from November 2024 to July 2025 in Ulusena Village, Moramo District, South Konawe Regency, Southeast Sulawesi Province. This study was conducted using a qualitative approach. The determination of informants was carried out using a non-probability sampling method with purposive sampling and snowball sampling techniques. Data sources in this study used primary and secondary data. Data collection was obtained through observation, interviews, and documentation. The data analysis process used the Miles and Huberman method, namely data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The utilization of the Ulusena Community Forest is divided into three categories: land use, utilization and collection of non-timber forest products (NTFPs), and utilization of environmental services. Livestock serves as a secondary source of income for livestock farmers, members of the Ulusena Community Forest Farmer Group. Utilization in livestock involves the use of forest areas as land for growing green fodder. “HKm Ulusena” Farmers Group has not been actively operating, so a new group management structure was formed. The new management structure periodically carries out a process of increasing the capacity of regional, institutional, and business management to foster group synergy by reactivating group activities. Farmers' perceptions of the use of the Ulusena Community Forest tend to be positive. Positive impacts of the Ulusena Community Forest utilization include obtaining permits for non-timber forest product (NTFP) management, obtaining economic resources from NTFPs, and obtaining resources to support the livestock sector.

This study is based on the suboptimal management of waste transportation in Tanjungpinang City, caused by limited fleet capacity, uneven service routes, a lack of human resources, and inconsistent implementation of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). This situation has led to waste accumulation at various points and an excessive load on the Ganet Final Disposal Site (TPA), which uses a controlled landfill system. The system aims to minimize pollution through waste compaction, soil covering, and leachate and methane gas management, but its implementation has not been optimal due to limited facilities and infrastructure. This study aims to evaluate the management of waste transportation to the Ganet landfill and identify the obstacles that arise. The approach used is descriptive qualitative with observation techniques, in-depth interviews, and document analysis, involving the Environmental Agency, the Ganet Landfill Technical Implementation Unit, field officers, fleet drivers, and residents around the Temporary Cleaning Site (TPS). The findings reveal that waste transportation management is already being carried out through standard operating procedures (SOPs) and inter-unit coordination, but is still hampered by fleet limitations, landfill capacity that is nearly full, service routes that do not cover the entire area, and minimal community participation. Therefore, additional fleets, infrastructure improvements, strengthened supervision, and community outreach are needed to achieve sustainable waste management.

In managing automation-based technology in a professional and independent manner, human resource capacity is strengthened, while the quality of clean water services is also improved through this community service program.

This research aims to analyze the capacity building of government personnel in implementing the Electronic-Based Government System (SPBE) at the Department of Communication and Informatics of Gresik Regency, which plays a strategic role in digital governance. This study uses a qualitative approach focusing on capacity development strategies and constraints at individual and organizational levels. The findings show that capacity building is carried out through two main strategies: human resource development and organizational strengthening. In human resource development, the establishment and training of an internal assessor team serve as key instruments in supporting SPBE implementation. This team represents institutionalized capacity, enabling the organization to independently conduct monitoring, evaluation, and quality assurance processes in a sustainable manner. This approach reflects a long-term strategy to strengthen institutional independence and reduce reliance on external parties. In organizational strengthening, capacity building focuses on optimizing organizational structure, work systems, coordination mechanisms, and regulatory support, including standard operating procedures. However, several constraints were identified. At the individual level, there is an imbalance in technical competencies, especially in information technology skills. At the organizational level, the lack of optimal follow-up after training highlights the need for more integrated human resource planning. These findings indicate that capacity building in SPBE implementation requires a systemic, well-planned, and sustainable approach to achieve effective, adaptive, and responsive digital government governance in the public sector.

This community service activity aims to strengthen government governance and adaptive digital human resource (HR) capacity of civil servants (ASN) in sub-districts of South Pontianak District, Pontianak City.

This research is motivated by the importance of school fund management as a post-conflict education recovery strategy in Dili City, particularly at SMP Akadiru-hun, which faces challenges such as damaged facilities, limited teacher capacity, and weak financial governance. A literature review indicates that Post-Conflict Education Theory and Educational Financial Management Theory emphasize efficiency, priority, transparency, and accountability as the foundation for education system recovery. This study used a mixed methods approach, with quantitative data collected in the form of questionnaires from 20 respondents and qualitative data collected through in-depth interviews with four key informants. The descriptive statistical analysis showed an average score of 17.85 for the Education System Recovery and Strengthening Index. Efficiency and Priority of Fund Use was 17.45, and Transparency and Accountability of Fund Management was 18.75. Pearson correlation analysis showed a moderate positive relationship between Education System Recovery and Strengthening and Transparency and Accountability in Fund Management (r = 0.360). In contrast, the relationships between Education System Recovery and Strengthening and Efficiency and Priority of Fund Use (r = -0.014) and Efficiency and Priority of Fund Use and Transparency and Accountability in Fund Management (r = 0.056) were very weak and insignificant. Qualitative findings confirm that school fund management that follows government standard operating procedures contributes to post-conflict education recovery, although internal transparency still needs improvement. This study concludes that efficient, targeted, and accountable school fund management can be an effective strategy in post-conflict education recovery.
