Design Of A Decision Support System For Prioritizing Village Infrastructure Development Using The SAW Method

Daud Brilian Simanjuntak, Edward Rajagukuguk, Surianto Sitepu
Abstract: Village infrastructure development planning often faces challenges in determining priorities due to limited budget allocations and assessment mechanisms that still tend to be subjective. This study aims to build an objective,… tive, transparent, and measurable Decision Support System (DSS) to determine the priority order of infrastructure development proposals in Asam Jawa Village, Torgamba District. The applied solution integrates the Rank Order Centroid (ROC) method to calculate criteria weighting based on relative importance, and the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method to process the alternative ranking calculation. The evaluation was conducted on 23 physical infrastructure proposals using four main criteria: urgency level (C1), physical condition (C2), benefits (C3), and population size (C4). The results indicate that alternative A4 (Construction of Borehole Well and Public Toilet at Field) and alternative A18 (Sejahtera Street Concrete Cast) achieved the highest preference score of 1.000000, followed by other infrastructure proposals in a structured manner. The combined use of ROC and SAW methods is proven to be effective and consistent in generating accurate rural development priority rankings. The integration of these two methods facilitates village government officials in making accountable decisions while minimizing cognitive bias risks in optimizing development budget allocation.

Lidya Rizki Ananda, Julianto Simatupang, Rio Bayu Sentosa, Nadia Astri Wulandari, Tika Christy
Abstract: Pemilihan Ketua Badan Eksekutif Mahasiswa (BEM) merupakan proses penting dalam menentukan mahasiswa yang memiliki kompetensi terbaik untuk memimpin organisasi kemahasiswaan. Namun, proses seleksi yang masih bergantung pada… da popularitas dan penilaian subjektif berpotensi menghasilkan keputusan yang kurang optimal. Penelitian ini bertujuan membangun Sistem Pendukung Keputusan (SPK) menggunakan metode Multi-Objective Optimization on the Basis of Ratio Analysis (MOORA) untuk membantu proses pemilihan Ketua BEM secara objektif. Data penelitian diperoleh melalui wawancara dengan pembina BEM untuk menentukan kriteria dan bobot penilaian. Lima kriteria yang digunakan meliputi kepemimpinan, kemampuan komunikasi, pengalaman organisasi, integritas, dan indeks prestasi kumulatif (IPK). Tahapan metode MOORA terdiri atas penyusunan matriks keputusan, normalisasi, perhitungan nilai optimasi, dan proses perangkingan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa alternatif K1 memperoleh nilai optimasi tertinggi sebesar 0,473 sehingga direkomendasikan sebagai Ketua BEM terpilih. Penerapan metode MOORA mampu menghasilkan proses pengambilan keputusan yang lebih objektif, sistematis, transparan, dan akurat sehingga dapat dijadikan sebagai alat bantu dalam menentukan Ketua BEM berdasarkan kriteria yang telah ditetapkan. The selection of the Student Executive Board (BEM) President is an important process in determining the most qualified student to lead the student organization. However, conventional selection processes often rely on popularity and subjective judgments, which may lead to less optimal decisions. This study aims to develop a Decision Support System (DSS) using the Multi-Objective Optimization on the Basis of Ratio Analysis (MOORA) method to support a more objective selection process. Research data were collected through interviews with BEM advisors to determine the assessment criteria and their corresponding weights. Five criteria were used, namely leadership, communication skills, organizational experience, integrity, and grade point average (GPA). The MOORA method consists of decision matrix construction, normalization, optimization value calculation, and ranking. The results indicate that candidate K1 achieved the highest optimization value of 0.473 and was therefore recommended as the selected BEM President. The implementation of the MOORA method provides a more objective, systematic, transparent, and accurate decision-making process, making it an effective tool for supporting the selection of the most suitable BEM President based on predetermined criteria.

Economic Behavior of The Kediri People in The Shadow of Doho Kediri Airport

Susilowati , Eni, Rofik, Eka Nur, M. Maghfiroh, Ana, Murdinar, Hardining Estu
Abstract: This study aims to examine the economic behavior of the community around Dhoho Airport, Kediri, which has undergone socio-economic transformation due to strategic infrastructure development. This phenomenon is evident in… Kediri Regency, East Java, especially after the start of the construction of Dhoho Airport, a national strategic project designed to be a lever for regional economic growth. The presence of the airport has changed the face of the surrounding area, which was previously agricultural land and modest settlements, into a bustling and fast-growing economic area. This change has led to a surge in new economic activities, such as the emergence of street vendors, restaurants, parking lots, local transportation businesses, and lodging. Using a qualitative approach with phenomenological methods, this study explores the meanings raised by local economic actors in responding to these changes. The findings show that communities show adaptive responses through trade, lodging, and other services, with economic meanings influenced by local values such as blessing, hard work, and kinship. This study concludes that people's economic behavior is not only rational instrumental, but also full of subjective values and meanings, so that regional economic policies need to be designed in an inclusive and contextual manner

Do High Potential Employees Always Possess Emotional Intelligence? A Narrative Review of the Competency Based Model in Indonesian Multisector Organizations (2024–2025)

Setiawan, Anang
Abstract: This narrative review explores whether high-potential workers (HiPo) within Indonesian organizations across various sectors consistently exhibit elevated levels of emotional intelligence (EI), and it assesses the relevance… ce of the Competency Based Model proposed by Boyatzis in the identification and development of HiPos. The review compiles freely accessible scholarly articles from 2024 to 2025, with a focus on research from Indonesia and includes one primary benchmark study on high-potential individuals for comparison, as studies specific to Indonesian HiPo are scarce. Findings reveal that being classified as a HiPo does not necessarily correlate with having high EI. Research directly related to high potential employees indicates that cognitive-intrapersonal skills such as initiative, desire for learning, and the ability to think outside conventional limits are stronger indicators of high potential than emotional-interpersonal skills. Research from various Indonesian sectors, including manufacturing, energy, construction, and public services, suggests that while EI plays a significant role in enhancing employee productivity, work performance, job satisfaction, and effectiveness in management, its influence typically operates through mediating factors instead of serving as a direct predictor. Furthermore, talent management research in Indonesia shows that numerous organizations still depend on performance evaluations and fragmented methods instead of comprehensive competency frameworks. This review concludes that the Competency Based Model is relevant in Indonesian organizations across different sectors; however, it should be viewed as encompassing a range of competencies rather than a single attribute. While EI is valuable, it is not an essential or sufficient criterion for determining high-potential employees.

Construction of Auditor Profession Ethics in The Era of Digital Disruption: a Phenomenological Study of Public Accounting Firm in Surabaya

Sulaiman, Nur Islamiati, Sri Trisnaningsih, Hero Priono
Abstract: This study aims to explore auditors' experiences in digital auditing practices, the meaning of professional ethics, and ethical dilemmas in the context of digital disruption using a phenomenological approach. The study was… as conducted at a Public Accounting Firm (KAP) in Surabaya, with auditors who had experience in technology-based audits as informants. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, then analyzed using a phenomenological approach supported by NVivo software. The results show that digital auditing practices are still dominated by the use of simple technologies such as Microsoft Excel for data processing, analysis, and audit documentation. Although technology increases efficiency, auditors still do not fully rely on the system and still use professional judgment to maintain the reliability of audit results. Professional ethics is understood as a primary foundation that remains valid, but is reinterpreted in the digital context, particularly related to efficiency pressures and technological risks. Ethical dilemmas arise due to time constraints, incomplete data, and client demands, so auditors tend to prioritize the sufficiency of evidence and prudence in decision-making. Overall, this study concludes that digital disruption does not change the fundamental values ​​of auditors' professional ethics, but rather reconstructs their meaning through work experiences and professional interactions.

Understanding Accounting Practices in Culinary MSMEs In The Tanjung Bunga Metro Area, Makassar City

Saleh, Andi Mulia, Alimuddin, Said, Darwis
Abstract: The focus of research shifts from the dominance of positivism to a non-positivistic approach that places meaning, interpretation, and social construction at the center of analysis. One of the main approaches within this… paradigm is Grounded Theory Research (GTR), a qualitative method developed by Glaser and Strauss (1967) to build empirically data-based theory through a rigorous inductive process. In the accounting context, GTR becomes increasingly relevant because reporting practices, accountability, and financial decision-making cannot be understood solely through objective measurements, but rather through social interactions, organizational values, and the interpretations of the actors involved (Ahrens & Chapman, 2006). This article aims to examine the role and relevance of GTR in modern accounting research by highlighting its philosophical foundations, methodological procedures, and contributions to the development of practice-based accounting theory. Through a systematic literature review, it is found that GTR has the ability to uncover the social dynamics that shape accounting practices such as accountability, ethics, managerial control, and institutional legitimacy that have previously been overlooked by positivistic approaches (Charmaz, 2006; Bryant & Charmaz, 2007). GTR has also proven relevant in the context of changing reporting systems, accounting digitalization, and the integration of sustainability principles such as ESG, where meaning, professional identity, and interpretive processes are dominant elements (Adams & Larrinaga, 2019). The study's findings confirm that GTR not only offers a systematic method for data collection and analysis, but also provides a more reflective, context-sensitive epistemological framework capable of generating substantive theory that is truly rooted in organizational reality. Thus, GTR is a powerful methodological alternative in enriching accounting knowledge, while providing a deeper understanding of how accounting practices are executed, negotiated, and interpreted in everyday organizational life.

Nurcitra, Paddu, Abd Hamid, Razak, Abd Rahman
Abstract: The purpose of this study is to investigate how the public-private partnership model based on the construction-operation-transfer model in the case of infrastructure development in Makassar City is utilized in the construction… uction of the Makassar City Toll Road. After satisfying the requirements set in each case, a public-private partnership contract is concluded. The construction of toll roads is basically done by the government, the Ministry of Public Affairs and a corporate body (in this case PT Bosova Margautama Nusantara) using a build-operate-transfer model (generally a model involving two parties). is constructed by public service users, governments, and service providers are involved in building and operating the infrastructure. After granting the right of use for 35 years as the organizer, it will be handed over to the government after the concession period.

CONSTRUCTION OF STUDENTS' HISTORICAL LITERACY THROUGH ISLAMIC CULTURAL HISTORY LEARNING BASED ON DIGITAL ANIMATION VIDEOS

Anggraeni, Novita, Sulaeman, Devi, Musyadad, Mia Audina, Kurniasih, Dedeh, Supriatna, Asep
Abstract: The development of digital technology in education is driving the transformation of history learning from a textual approach to a visual and interactive approach. In the context of Islamic education, learning Islamic Cultural… tural History (ISHC) requires strategies that can build students' historical literacy reflectively and contextually. This study aims to describe and analyze the process of constructing students' historical literacy through digital animated video-based ISHC learning at Madrasah Aliyah Fathanul Burhan, Tempuran District. This research used a qualitative approach with a case study approach. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation studies, then analyzed using an interactive model through the stages of reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results show that the use of digital animated video integrated into the learning design fosters chronological understanding, causal analysis skills, and active student engagement in reflective discussions. The teacher's role as a facilitator is a key factor in guiding students' interpretation of visual content, ensuring a systematic process of meaning construction. The implications of this research emphasize the importance of integrating digital pedagogy and dialogic facilitation in strengthening historical literacy in madrasas, as well as contributing to the development of SKI learning practices that are adaptive to the digital era.

MODERNITAS KONTEMPORER DAN PROSPEKNYA DALAM ISLAM (BERDASARKAN PEMIKIRAN FAZLUR RAHMAN DALAM ISLAM & MODERNITY)

Abdul Hafith, Taufik, Subhan Abdullah Acim, Jumarim
Abstract: Fazlur Rahman is one of the modern Muslim thinkers who plays an important role in the reconstruction of Islamic thought, especially in responding to the challenges of modernity. He argues that Islam is not a static teaching,… ing, but rather a dynamic value system that must always develop in accordance with the changing times. One of Rahman's main criticisms of the Islamic world is the tendency to understand the Qur'an and Sunnah literally without considering their historical and social context. He offers a double movement methodology, an approach that traces the original meaning of the text in its historical context, then applies it to modern conditions. This approach allows Islam to remain relevant without losing its essence. In addition to the interpretation methodology, Rahman also contributed to the reform of Islamic education, the integration of science with religion, and the reconstruction of Islamic law based on the principle of maqasid al-shariah. He emphasized the importance of reopening the door of ijtihad so that Muslims do not get caught up in taqlid, namely the attitude of accepting Islamic law dogmatically without critical evaluation. Rahman also criticized Islamic fundamentalism which tends to reject modernity absolutely, as well as radical secularism which seeks to eliminate the spiritual aspect of human life. According to him, Muslims must be able to adopt the positive aspects of modernity, such as the development of science and technology, without sacrificing Islamic values. With a more rational and contextual approach, Rahman provides a foundation for Islamic renewal that is not only based on tradition, but also open to the development of the times. His thoughts offer solutions to various global challenges faced by Muslims, including in legal, social, and economic aspects. Thus, modernity is not a threat to Islam, but rather an opportunity to strengthen Islamic values in the lives of contemporary society.

GENEALOGY OF THE THOUGHT OF MAQĀṢID Al-SYĀṬIBῙ: AN INTERTEXT STUDY OF THE BOOK AL-MUWĀFAQĀT

Sulaiman, Akhmad
Abstract: This article examines the genealogy of al-Syāṭibī’s maqāṣid thought in al-Muwāfaqāt, focusing on its intertextual roots and later influence in contemporary Islamic legal thought. Using qualitative library research and intertextual… arch and intertextual analysis, it reads al-Muwāfaqāt not as an isolated text, but as part of a broader network of uṣūl al-fiqh traditions before and after al-Syāṭibī. The study argues that al-Syāṭibī’s maqāṣid theory was not entirely new, but represented a systematic development and epistemological reconstruction of earlier ideas, especially al-Ghazālī’s conception of maṣlaḥah mursalah. Al-Syāṭibī’s major contribution lies in transforming maṣlaḥah mursalah from a subsidiary legal proof into a foundational principle of Islamic legal reasoning. The article also shows that the Mālikī intellectual milieu of Granada, along with rational elements introduced through Mu‘tazilite theology and philosophy, contributed to the formation of his thought. After a long period of dormancy, al-Syāṭibī’s maqāṣid thought was revived through the publication of al-Muwāfaqāt in Tunisia and later developed by Ibn ‘Āshūr, contemporary uṣūl scholars, and Qur’anic hermeneutical thinkers such as Abdullah Saeed.
