In natural disaster management, good coordination, and communication in carrying out disaster relief logistics activities are important so that assistance can be delivered quickly and precisely. The Sleman Regional Disaster Management Agency (RDMA) is a government agency that has the responsibility to distribute disaster assistance in Sleman Regency. In the process of distribution of disaster relief logistics, RDMA Sleman encountered several problems. The process of recording disaster data in the form of the number of disaster victims, disaster locations, and logistics needs are still done manually. This results in information that is less accurate because the information obtained is different from several parties. These problems can be overcome by designing an integrated inventory information system between refugee camp posts from disaster locations and warehouses where logistics storage with each RDMA. The disaster logistics information system needs to be designed as needed to simplify the user in operating it. In this study, the information system was created by the Progressive Web Application method so that users can access websites and applications at once, and provide the functionality to weak network conditions, notifications, content updates, connectivity changes, and others. Information systems that have been designed can make aid distribution better and more flexible because the information presented can be directly monitored by the Sleman RDMA and some related donors. The information system that was built has also been tested by Alpha testing and concluded that the information system that was built was well running and correctly. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Natural disasters are events caused by events or a series of events caused by nature. Natural disasters include earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, floods, droughts, hurricanes, and landslides. Indonesia has a very high threat of geological disasters, making it vulnerable to tectonic earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Lack of awareness of the Indonesian people about disaster preparedness will increase the impact of disaster events. Mount Merapi is one of the most active volcanoes in Indonesia. For this reason, disaster preparedness is critical, especially for people in Disaster Prone Areas (DPA) III. This study aimed to determine the level of individual/household readiness index in DPA III in facing the eruption of Mount Merapi. The results showed that the readiness of individuals/households in DPA III was in the "ready" category with an index value of 75,440. While the index values of each parameter are knowledge and attitude parameters (93,978), emergency response plan parameters (68,591), disaster warning system parameters (74,46), and resource mobilization parameters (36,129). The resource mobilization parameter has the lowest index value based on these four parameters, followed by the emergency response plan parameter. Therefore, in this case, the Government, the Regional Disaster Management Agency, and the community need to prioritize awareness-raising and strategies for increasing index values for these two parameters.

Education unit that carries out educational activities in the form of academics, include high schools, institutes, or universities. The leaders, lecturers, and employees must pay attention to customer satisfaction from the perspective of students as consumers. Student satisfaction must be the basis of management decisions, so universities must make increasing student satisfaction a fundamental goal. Total Quality Management (TQM) is a quality management system that focuses on customers by involving all levels of employees in continuous improvement. The education system, which prioritizes the tertiary education system, currently facing struggle for survival and increased pressure from stakeholders need to support "Delighting Customers" to continue to be relevant and sustainable in the future. "Delighting the Customer" is basically the core message in TQM. TQM is used as a workmanship in the research method. In this study we discuss and apply TQM concepts that are relevant for every aspect of academic life, namely for competition, learning and administration activities. This paper presents some results of a study investigating the quality in higher education. The case study involved industrial engineering Diponegoro University and data collected using TQM. The instrument consists of dimensions including Teaching students well, Availability of staff for student consultation, Library services, Computing facilities, Recreational facilities, Class size, Level and difficulty of subject content, and Student workload. The study involves carrying out mapping using the importance satisfaction matrix method whereby data is obtained through questionnaire distributed to students at the Department of Industrial Engineering, University of Diponegoro. From the survey collected, 300 respondents passed the validity and reliability test. Then the gap score was calculated using the Gap Analysis method and mapping done using the Importance Satisfaction Matrix method. The results of the study using the student satisfaction inventory method found that the dimensions of computing facilities have the most significant score gap and, in the mapping, using the importance satisfaction matrix obtained 8 attributes falls in quadrant I, which indicate these variables has below average satisfaction levels but the level of importance is quite high.

The creative industry (CI) is considered to promote human development while promoting the economic growth. It maintains and protects historical and cultural heritage, improve cultural capital, and foster communities as well as individual creativity. Although there is widespread classification of the CI, the Ministry of Tourism of Indonesia has classified CI into 16 sub-sectors, i.e., (1) advertising, (2) architecture, (3) interior design, (4) product design, (5) craft, (6) visual communication design, (7) fashion, (8) film, animation, and video (9) photography, (10) application and game developers, (11) music, (12) performing arts, (13) publishing, (14) fine arts (15) TV and radio (broadcasting), and (16) gastronomy/culinary. The creative industry is an industry that originates from the use of creativity, skills and individual talents to create prosperity and employment by generating and exploiting the individual's creative and creative power. Batik industry is one of Creative Industry in Indonesia which plays an important role in the economic development. However, the Batik are facing difficulties in many areas, especially in spending their scarce resources efficiently. A case study to assess the efficiency of the Batik enterprises has been conducted by applying the data envelopment analysis in Semarang, Indonesia. The results show that from ten assigned Batik enterprises, there are nine enterprises’ that are considered efficient, while the rest are regarded as inefficient. This research is expected to give some advantages to the Batik enterprises’ regarding how to use their limited resources in an efficient way. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
