Mining operations rely heavily on the performance and reliability of heavy equipment used in the production process. One of the most important hauling units in open-pit mining is the dump truck, which functions to transport overburden and coal from the mining front to disposal areas. Due to high operational intensity, dump trucks require effective maintenance management to ensure equipment reliability and reduce unexpected downtime. However, maintenance activities are often carried out based only on routine service schedules without analytical planning based on historical data. This study aims to analyze the implementation of forecasting methods in maintenance management to improve the effectiveness of dump truck maintenance planning in mining operations. The research was conducted during field work practice at PT Putra Perkasa Abadi Jobsite BIB, Tanah Bumbu, South Kalimantan. The data used were historical maintenance records of dump truck units obtained from the maintenance department. The research method used a quantitative approach with time series forecasting analysis to identify maintenance patterns and estimate future maintenance needs. The results show that forecasting-based maintenance planning can help companies predict maintenance requirements more accurately and prepare maintenance resources more efficiently. Furthermore, the implementation of forecasting methods can reduce unexpected equipment failures and support operational efficiency in mining activities.

Overburden removal is a critical phase in coal mining operations, as it directly affects production continuity and operational efficiency. However, production realization often deviates from the mine plan due to various operational constraints. This study, conducted at Pit K1 Mahakam of PT. Insani Baraperkasa, evaluates the causes of underachievement in overburden stripping targets using the Six Big Losses framework, which classifies inefficiencies into Breakdown Losses, Setup and Adjustment Losses, Idling and Minor Stops, Reduced Speed Losses, Process Defect Losses, and Reduced Yield Losses. The analysis revealed that the dominant losses were Reduced Speed Losses (26%) and Setup and Adjustment Losses (10%), primarily caused by disposal congestion, shift changes, and repairs at the loading and disposal areas. Minor contributions were found from idling (3%), production losses (5%), while breakdown losses showed negligible impact. These factors led to increased standby time and reduced equipment cycle effectiveness. Improvement strategies are recommended through optimized disposal allocation, reduction of waiting time, and stricter control of external operational disruptions to enhance stripping efficiency and achieve production targets.

In the modern computing era, servers face significant challenges in data storage due to hardware failures, cyber attacks, or human errors. The problem highlighted focuses on the impact of file systems on three critical aspects: data integrity (accuracy and consistency of data without corruption), data recovery (the ability to restore data after a failure), and failure resilience (fault tolerance, such as redundancy and journaling to prevent downtime). The main issue is that traditional file systems like FAT32 or NTFS are often susceptible to fragmentation, metadata loss, or long recovery times, which can lead to data loss of up to 20-30% on enterprise servers, especially in high-traffic environments like cloud computing.A simple problem-solving process is conducted through a straightforward comparative analysis approach: (1) A literature review of popular file systems (ext4, ZFS, Btrfs); (2) Failure simulations using tools like fsck and stress testing on virtual servers (e.g., via KVM or Docker); and (3) Measuring performance metrics with benchmarking tools like Bonnie++ for I/O throughput, recovery time, and error rates. This process is designed to be simple, requiring only a virtual lab setup without expensive hardware, and is analyzed quantitatively with descriptive statistics.The solution to the problem indicates that advanced file systems like ZFS or Btrfs provide significant improvements: data integrity is up to 95% more secure through automatic checksums, data recovery is achieved in minutes through snapshots and RAID integration, and failure resilience is higher with copy-on-write features. The main recommendation is to migrate to journaling-based file systems for servers, combined with automated backups, which can reduce the risk of downtime by up to 50%. This research provides practical guidance for system administrators to enhance server reliability without excessive additional costs.

The administrative system implemented at the Tangerang City PMI Headquarters is still semi-computerized, causing several issues such as inconsistent document formats, higher risk of recording errors, longer processing times, and excessive paper use.

value of the bankruptcy estate (boedel pailit) through the going concern principle. Law No. 37 of 2004 concerning Bankruptcy and Suspension of Debt Payment Obligations (UUK-PKPU) allows curators to continue the debtor’s business, particularly under Article 179 paragraph (1). However, the absence of clear normative parameters creates legal uncertainty and inconsistent practices. This study analyzes the application of the going concern principle in the settlement of bankruptcy estates following the annulment of homologated composition agreements and examines the urgency of technical implementing regulations. Using a normative juridical method supported by statutory analysis, court decisions, legal doctrines, and interviews, the research focuses on the cases of PT Sri Rejeki Isman Tbk. (Sritex) and PT Texmaco Perkasa Engineering Tbk. The findings reveal that going concern implementation depends not only on legal provisions but also on non-legal factors, such as transparency, asset control, capital availability, management credibility, and creditor support. Texmaco’s case shows approval when these conditions are met, while Sritex demonstrates rejection due to lack of transparency and unlawful activities. The study underscores the need for a Supreme Court Regulation (PERMA) that establishes eligibility parameters, approval mechanisms, reporting obligations, and curator protection to ensure consistency, legal certainty, creditor protection, and greater economic benefits in Indonesian bankruptcy practice.

Organic agriculture plays a vital role in Indonesia’s agricultural development, with a key challenge being how to boost productivity efficiently and sustainably. Liquid Organic Fertilizer (LOF) derived from natural materials provides an eco-friendly option to improve soil fertility and crop yields. Bamboo shoots (Bambusa spp.), rich in organic carbon and gibberellin, present strong potential as LOF raw material to support plant growth. This study evaluated the effect of bamboo shoot-based LOF on the growth and yield of white radish (Raphanus sativus). The research was conducted from May to August 2025 in Kalolok, Batupapan Village, Tana Toraja Regency, South Sulawesi, at an altitude of 775 m. LOF was produced by fermenting 200 kg of ground bamboo shoots with 4 kg palm sugar, 1 liter EM4, and 200 liters water for 14 days. Treatments consisted of 0, 100, 200, and 300 ml per liter of water, applied twice at two-week intervals starting 14 days after planting. Using a randomized block design with four treatments and three replications, variables observed included plant height, leaf number, tuber size, and yield. Results showed that 300 ml/liter LOF gave the best outcomes: tallest plants (27 cm), most leaves (15.89), largest tubers (29.37 cm length; 6.06 cm diameter), and highest weight (731 g/plant; 6936.67 g/plot). These effects are linked to balanced nutrients (N, P, K, Mg, Ca) enhancing vegetative growth and tuber development. Thus, bamboo shoot-based LOF at 300 ml/liter is recommended as an effective organic fertilizer for white radish.

The agricultural sector plays a strategic role in ensuring national food security, particularly in rural areas where the majority of the population depends on agricultural production. Sememu Village, an agricultural-based community with rice and tobacco as its primary commodities, has faced recurring pest attacks in recent years. Conventional pest control methods in the area have primarily relied on chemical pesticides. However, excessive and prolonged use of these chemicals has resulted in serious problems, including pest resistance, environmental contamination, and potential health risks to farmers and consumers. This study aims to improve farmers’ knowledge and practical skills by introducing an alternative, eco-friendly approach through a training program on the production of botanical pesticides derived from papaya leaves (Carica papaya L.). Papaya leaves are known to contain bioactive compounds such as papain, chymopapain, alkaloids, terpenoids, and flavonoids, which exhibit natural insecticidal properties. The training activities consisted of initial observation, presentation of scientific and practical materials, hands-on practice in the preparation of botanical pesticides, and field testing on rice and tobacco plants. The findings demonstrated that the use of papaya leaf-based pesticides effectively reduced pest feeding activity and increased pest mortality rates, thereby minimizing crop damage. Importantly, this approach did not cause harmful effects on the surrounding ecosystem. The program highlights the potential of botanical pesticides as a sustainable solution for integrated pest management in agricultural villages, contributing both to environmental conservation and farmers’ welfare.

Employee performance appraisal is an important process in human resource management that aims to evaluate individual work achievements based on certain criteria set by the organization. This process not only serves to assess the extent to which an employee meets work standards, but also serves as a basis for strategic decision-making, such as job promotions, bonus awards, and career development planning. However, in practice, CV. Surya Perkasa Makassar faces serious obstacles in the form of subjectivity in the assessment process, because the benchmarks used still tend to be based on the likes or dislikes of superiors. This causes the evaluation results to be less objective, inconsistent, and potentially reduce employee work motivation. To overcome these problems, this study aims to develop a decision support system for employee performance appraisal using the Tsukamoto Fuzzy Logic method. This method was chosen because it is able to accommodate uncertainty in the assessment, resulting in more objective, measurable, and consistent decisions. This study uses a Research and Development (R&D) approach with a Black Box Testing method to ensure system functionality. The assessment criteria used include five main aspects, namely work quality, work quantity, discipline, responsibility, and cooperation. Data from these criteria is processed through fuzzification, inference, and defuzzification stages to obtain the final employee performance score. Test results indicate that all system features function as expected. The system is able to prevent data duplication, validate input, and produce accurate final performance scores. The implementation of the Tsukamoto Fuzzy Logic method has proven effective in reducing the level of subjectivity that typically occurs in manual assessments. Therefore, this system can be used as a reliable tool in managerial decision-making, both regarding promotions, bonus awards, and planning employee future career development.

The adoption of PSAK 116 changes the accounting treatment of leases by recognising right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, replacing operating lease expenses with depreciation and interest. These changes have a direct impact on ability-to-pay financial ratios such as Debt Service Coverage Ratio (DSCR) and Net Debt to EBITDA. This study analyses the financial statements of PT Mitra Adiperkasa Tbk (MAPA) for 2019-2024 using a descriptive-comparative and simulation approach in case PSAK 116 is not applied. The results show a technical increase in EBITDA due to PSAK 116, which has an effect on the apparent improvement of DSCR and Net Debt to EBITDA. Simulations using the PSAK 30 approach show more conservative and realistic ratios. These findings highlight the importance of understanding the impact of accounting standards on ratio interpretation and credit decision-making.
