This study aims to identify and analyze the factors that influence customers' intentions and actual behavior in using Blu Deposito with reference to the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). This study aims to analyze the factors that influence customers' intentions and actual behavior in adopting Blu Deposito using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) framework. Data was collected through a Google Form questionnaire from 54 customers at one BCA branch and analyzed using SPSS through validity and reliability tests, descriptive analysis, and multiple regression. The results show that Behavioral Intention (BI)is significantly influenced by Perceived Ease of Use (PEOU), Perceived Usefulness (PU), and Attitude Toward Using (ATU), with PEOU as the most dominant factor. In addition, BI has a significant effect on Actual System Use (AU), which confirms the relevance of applying the TAM model in the context of digital deposit products. These findings indicate that ease of use plays a greater role than financial benefits in encouraging users to adopt Blu Deposits. This study contributes to the understanding of digital deposit adoption and provides managerial insights to improve the usability and user engagement of digital banking services.

Abstract:Abstract: This research tries to describe student cluster analysis, as an effort to optimize campus promotion to various schools and regions. It is known that every year, Politeknik Pertanian Negeri Payakumbuh, abbreviated…
ed as PPNP, brings in students from various regions in Indonesia. Regarding the campus promotion strategy process, the PPNP promotion section has not been based or referred to the results of processing existing student data. So that the budget used by the campus promotion team has not been right on target with the results of students who can be brought to campus. In addition, the existing student database has not been processed or explored further, so that it has not produced knowledge that is very useful as material to support the decisions of the academic and student affairs department and the campus promotion team. The method used in this research is CRISP-DM which stands for Cross- Industry Standard Process for Data Mining. Based on the characteristics of each cluster, the PPNP Promotion Team in conducting the next socialization is advised to prioritize provinces such as West Sumatra and North Sumatra. Currently, managerial circles in this context, university leaders are expected to be able to make data-based decisions. Data-based decision making can foster a culture of sustainable innovation, produce customer-centric offerings and drive long-term business growth.

Abstrak: Penelitian ini mencoba untuk mendeskripsikan analisis cluster mahasiswa, sebagai upaya optimalisasi dalam melakukan promosi kampus ke berbagai sekolah dan daerah. Diketahui bahwa setiap tahunnya, Politeknik Pertanian Negeri Payakumbuh disingkat PPNP mendatangkan mahasiswa dari berbagai daerah di Indonesia. Terkait dengan proses strategi promosi kampus, bagian promosi PPNP belum didasarkan pada hasil pengolahan data mahasiswa yang ada. Sehingga anggaran yang digunakan tim promosi belum tepat sasaran dengan hasil mahasiswa yang dapat didatangkan ke kampus. Selain itu database mahasiswa yang ada selama ini belum diolah atau digali secara jauh, sehingga belum menghasilkan pengetahuan yang bermanfaat sebagai bahan untuk mendukung keputusan bagian akademik dan kemahasiswaan serta tim promosi kampus. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini yaitu CRISP-DM merupakan singkatan dari Cross-Industry Standart Process for Data Mining. Berdasarkan karakteristik setiap cluster, maka untuk Tim Promosi PPNP dalam melakukan sosialisasi berikutnya disarankan memprioritaskan pada provinsi seperti Sumatera Barat dan Sumatera Utara. Saat ini kalangan manajerial yaitu pimpinan perguruan tinggi diharapkan dapat melakukan pengambilan keputusan berbasis pada data. Pengambilan keputusan berbasis data dapat menumbuhkan budaya inovasi yang berkelanjutan, menghasilkan penawaran yang berpusat pada pelanggan dan mendorong pertumbuhan bisnis jangka panjang.

s provided to customers are closely related to human resources and employee performance. Employee performance has a very important role in the company's success so that we can see the strengths, weaknesses, and potential managerial gaps in the organization. The problem faced by PDAM Tirta Silaupiasa is the lack of motivation experienced by employees. One of the efforts to increase employee motivation is to select role models/exemplary employees who will later become examples for other employees. Based on this, it is necessary to use technology, namely the design of a decision support system in determining exemplary employees by applying the Simple Multi-Attribute Rating Technique (SMART) method. The SMART method has advantages, namely in deciding with many alternatives and criteria. It is more complex to make a decision, and the decision results are better. The results of this study get Alfiansyah's alternative with a value of 74.85202777 to be a role model for PDAM Tirta Silaupiasa.

Abstract:This study aims to analyze the role of fiscal decentralization in enhancing regional financial independence in Indonesia. Using a qualitative approach and literature review methodology, the research examines the role of…
fiscal decentralization in promoting regional financial autonomy in Indonesia. The analysis compares the effectiveness of fiscal decentralization policies in fostering financial independence across various regions in the country. Fiscal decentralization has demonstrated positive impacts by granting regions greater freedom to determine development priorities and explore funding sources. Regions with strong economic potential and natural resources can increase their locally generated revenue (Pendapatan Asli Daerah or PAD) to support development. However, this policy also creates disparities among regions, where wealthier regions manage their finances independently while poorer regions remain reliant on central government transfers. Moreover, limited managerial capacity in some regions hampers the policy's effectiveness. Fiscal decentralization can strengthen regional financial independence if accompanied by enhanced financial management capacity and fiscal policy adjustments.

review of HRM challenges and opportunities within digital workplace environments, drawing on peer-reviewed literature published between 2015 and 2024. Five core dimensions of digital HRM transformation are examined: technology-based talent acquisition, remote and hybrid workforce management, continuous digital competency development, people analytics and data-driven decision-making, and the ethics of algorithmic management. The findings reveal that while digitalization enhances HR efficiency and organizational agility, it simultaneously introduces complex challenges related to employee well-being, digital equity, and data privacy. This article further proposes the Digital HRM Maturity Model as a conceptual framework offering organizations a structured pathway toward sustainable, human-centered digital transformation. Managerial implications and future research directions are discussed accordingly.

is study explores how village managers conduct managerial and marketing activities to attract tourists and promote local products. The research method involves a SWOT analysis to evaluate the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats in the Marketing Mix’s 7P approach implemented by the village. The results of the study indicate that Bejijong Village has several significant advantages, including historical heritage such as Brahu Temple, Petilasan Siti Inggil, and Maha Vihara Majapahit, as well as local products such as smoked salted eggs, lemon juice, pukis lumer (melting) bertoping, tahu lontong (compress rice), and Cempaka batik handicrafts and wayang kulit. However, the challenges faced include less than optimal website management, lack of effective digital marketing strategies, and entrance fees that may be insufficient to support maintenance. This study introduces novelty in marketing strategy analysis by integrating the SWOT and Marketing Mix’s 7P approaches to provide in-depth insights into how management and marketing can be improved. These findings are expected to be a reference for other villages in designing more effective marketing strategies and suggesting improvement steps that can increase the attractiveness and sustainability of culture-based tourist destinations.
