Full textAbstract:
Human resource refers to the stock of productive skills and technical knowledge embodied in labor. It is tangible in nature. Many early economic theories refer to it simply as labor, one of the three factors of production, and consider it to be a fungible resource -- homogeneous and easily interchangeable. The goal of human resource management is to help an organization to meet strategic goals by attracting, and retaining employees and also to manage them effectively so that they deliver productive outputs. The key word here perhaps is "fit", i.e. a HRM approach seeks to ensure a fit between the management of an organization’s employees, and the overall strategic direction of the company. Human capital instead, refers to the intangible aspect of human resources. It enhances the value of employees by striking a win-win goal for employers and employees. It focuses on the intrinsic value of each employee, where any expenditure on employees is regarded as an investment rather than an expense. The varying talents and motivations of employees are given cognizance so that incentives and working arrangements can be created to enhance each employee's contributions to organizational performance. This paper distinguishes human capital from human resources and how human resource may be transformed into human capital.

Abstract Due to increasing competitiveness in the industry, companies will invariably adopt strategies to ensure that their employees continuously eliminate waste and create more value. This concept was applied at a company that designs, develops, and manufactures steel moulds for the injection of thermoplastics, with the purpose of implementing Lean thinking in the production sector, thus achieving the following objectives: organization of production; preparation of documents to support production, and standardization of graphite stock. Regarding the application of the 5S tool, an improvement in worker safety, and in cleaning was observed, which also led to a reduction in the time wasted when locating tools. Through the implementation of 5S auditing, enabling to verify an overall improvement, from a rating of 35% in the first audit to 85% in the subsequent audit. The tools implemented allowed for improvements in communication between sectors, leading to increased productivity and productive autonomy. Finally, graphite stock was standardized by means of Kanban.

Subject. This article explores the scope of the integrated reporting concept, which reflects the preservation of the value of production capital stock in the process of creating the value of a commercial organization. Objectives. The purpose of the article is to substantiate the hypothesis of preservation of the value of production capital, expressed in the business accounting model reflecting the processes of value creation and the influence on the stock of capital value. This statement of the problem is consistent with the concept of maintaining physical capital, as expressed in the conceptual framework of financial reporting. Methods. For the study, we used the methods of observation, abstraction, deduction and induction, stochastic and actual analyses of economic phenomena. Results. The study proves the need to distinguish between diametrically opposed accounting categories, such as wear and tear of fixed assets and depreciation of fixed assets. The first category should reflect the loss in the value of production capital stock. The second one should reflect the possibility of recovering financial losses, and the result of these accounting procedures should be reflected through the capital estimates. Conclusions and Relevance. The study concludes on the following: impairment of assets and liabilities is one of the methods of business model accounting, realized through the procedure of formation of fair value of assets and liabilities; the capital estimates reflect the possibility of maintaining the stock of the value of production capital when depreciation is considered as the possibility of financial capital to reimburse the value of losses in production capital. The approach proposed in the article to reflect accounting procedures related to the formation of capital estimates in financial statements not only corresponds to the concept of capital maintenance, but also allows to complete accounting records on reflecting the residual value of fixed assets.

"Improved MRO Inventory Management System in Oil and Gas Company: Increased Service Level and Reduced Average Inventory Investment." Sustainability 12, no. 19 (September 29, 2020): 8027. http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/su12198027.
Full textAbstract:
This study proposes a methodology for the oil and gas businesses to keep their production plant productive with a minimum investment in carrying maintenance, repair, and operating inventory planning. The goal is to assist the exploration and production companies in minimizing the investment in keeping maintenance, repair, and operating (MRO) inventory for improving production plant uptime. The MRO inventory is the most expensive asset and it requires substantial investment. It helps in keeping the oil and gas production plant productive by performing planned and unplanned maintenance activities. A (Q, r) model with a stock-out and backorder cost approach is combined with a continuous inventory review policy for the analysis of class A items of oil and gas production plant MRO inventory. The class A items are identified through popular ABC analysis based on annual dollar volume. The demand for the inventory is modeled through Poisson distribution with consideration of constant lead time. The (Q, r) model in both stock-out cost and backorder cost approaches assigned higher order frequency and lower service level to low annual demand and highly expensive items. The stock-out cost approach shows an 8.88% increase in the average service level and a 56.9% decrease in the company average inventory investment. The backorder cost approach results in a 7.77% increase in average service level and a 57% decrease in average inventory investment in contrast to the company’s existing inventory management system. The results have a direct impact on increasing plant uptime and productivity and reducing company maintenance cost through properly managing maintenance stock. The analysis is carried out on the oil and gas production plant’s MRO inventory data, but it can be applied to other companies’ inventory data as well. All the results reflected in this research are based on the inventory ordering policy of two orders per year. The inventory ordering frequency per year may be other than two orders per year depending on the type of organization.

Stock market prediction is the demonstration of attempting to decide the future estimation of an organization stock or other monetary instrument exchanged on a trade. This paper will exhibit how to perform stock expectations utilizing Machine Learning calculations. Foreseeing securities exchange costs is an intricate assignment that generally includes broad human-PC communication. Because of the connected idea of stock costs, customary bunch preparing techniques can't be used productively for securities exchange examination. In the current framework, the Sliding window calculation is used. This calculation investigates the information, with a window pushing ahead, in the wake of examining the information. It is very tedious for expectation of stocks. While, in the proposed framework, the utilization of LSTM (Long Short Term Memory) calculation, gives compelling outcomes. While analyzing, the superfluous information is overlooked. The current framework is additionally not viable, in taking care of non-straight information. What's more, it is less proficient contrasted with LSTM algorithm. So, to help defeat these, LSTM helps in dealing with the information in a productive way. Indeed, speculators are exceptionally intrigued by the exploration zone of stock value expectations. For decent and fruitful speculation, numerous financial specialists are sharp in knowing the future circumstance of the share trading system. Great and viable expectation frameworks for securities exchange encourage brokers, financial specialists, and investigators by giving steady data like the future course of the share trading system. In this work, an intermittent neural system (RNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) are presented, a way to deal with anticipate securities exchange lists. The proposed model is a promising prescient procedure for a very non-direct time arrangement, whose designs are hard to catch by customary models.

Full textAbstract:
Sociological scholarship, economic theory, and empirical studies all indicate that interpersonal relationships are valuable productive assets and deserve to be formally incorporated into the study of human development. This paper employs the India Human Development Survey to examine, using OLS and logistic regressions, the impact of different dimensions of social capital on multiple proxies for household welfare. Social capital in the form of memberships in local community organizations and social network connections has a statistically and economically significant association with household consumption expenditures, physical asset ownership, and the probability of a household living in poverty. Households that are members of any formal community organization are expected to have higher monthly per capita consumption expenditures than households without any memberships. Estimates of a similar magnitude are observed when modeling a household’s stock of physical assets, a longer-term indicator of economic welfare. These indicators of social capital are also significantly associated with lower odds of a household living below the poverty line. Organizational memberships and social networks are also associated with considerably higher odds of a household assessing its own economic situation positively. Overall, social capital is a catalyst for increasing household welfare along multiple dimensions, and, therefore, a critical area of focus for economists, sociologists, development practitioners, and policymakers.

Full textAbstract:
The safety of trains is the basis of the efficient operation of the railway transport system, the optimal organization of passengers and cargo transportation. All organizational and technical activities in railway transport must meet the requirements of safe and uninterrupted train traffic. Traffic safety is ensured by the maintenance of all facilities, railway tracks, rolling stock, equipment and mechanisms, technical devices and communications. In order to ensure a given level of train safety, it is essential that the technical facilities and personnel have the appropriate safety level. Comprehensive management of reliability, risks, cost of life cycle in railways is a technology that improves the quality of services. This technology is characterized by several components, namely, factors that affect the reliability and safety of railway facilities, as well as the means of achieving reliability and safety; risk and complete safety; cost of life cycle. As part of the security provision, the Russian Railways regularly upgrades its fixed assets. These are projects related to safety, which are based on life safety aimed at ensuring the technological sustainability of the production process, improving traffic safety and maintaining the existing throughput capacity of transport infrastructure. The assessment of the influence of technical failures and defects on the performance and economic criteria of rail transport will enable objective management decisions to be made in the area of fixed assets renewal in order to improve traffic safety and to introduce measures to reduce the share of non-productive expenditures of structural units.

Full textAbstract:
The article presents the results of the assessment of forest conditions and the state of forest cultures of Scots pine and Silver birch in the suburban area of Volgograd. The relevance of the study is due to the need to select productive and resistant to dry conditions mixing schemes of tree species for the organization of forest-park areas in suburban areas of large cities. Studies were conducted on the example of a key area of 0,7 hectares in the northern part of the city. Soil forest availability was determined by the granulometric composition, organic matter content and groundwater level. Soil sections of light chestnut soils are described, the characteristics of the main physicochemical indicators of soils are given. A profile of groundwater occurrence has been compiled and its relationship with the relief of the site is shown. The condition of forest cultures was assessed by bonitet, stock and vital status of the stand. High vitality indicators of pine and birch testify to the optimal conditions for the growth of forest crops under dry pinery. The conducted research allowed recommending, during the silvicultural works in the north of the suburban zone of Volgograd, the cool way of mixing pine with birch to create highly productive and sustainable protective forest stands.

Full textAbstract:
The research in this article allows us to conduct a comparative assessment of the relationships between the intensification of innovative processes of development of transport, which largely determine today the main parameters of economic development efficiency of the respective regional territories and national states as a whole. The subject of the study is transport parameters of the movement of the resource component in space and time on the efficiency and competitiveness of the productive link of the regions and expanding the organization of trade relations of the subjects of the economy. Resources, the level of their territorial dispersion and dispersion with the possibility of placing productive forces and capacities, are largely determinant today in the development of the needs of the production sector and the impact of stock parameters on business efficiency and competitiveness of the economies of national states as a whole. Particular attention is paid to the development of both external interstate and internal national linear transport networks, including rail, road and water transport. [1]
The relevance of this publication is confirmed by the active development of Russia's transportation corridors, including the "North-South" and "West-East" corridors, which will be of great importance in utilizing Russia's vast resource potential in the joint development of advanced corporate production facilities with national friendly states that possess modern production and human resources capabilities.
The scientific basis of this study is represented by complex analysis methods of generalization and evaluative expert assessments of the effect. [2]
The main target parameters of the scientific justification of the article results are:
Confirmation of the possibility of using the practices of advanced enterprises of developed Asian countries, which rely on the influence of freight delivery speed and minimization of commodity stocks in the manufacturing sector, on labor productivity and, as a result, on intensive growth of economic efficiency as a whole.
Substantiation of the importance of integration processes between Russia and Asian countries through corporate participation in global innovative development of transportation routes, which will stimulate the intensification of the economy by actively developing communication between participating countries in the organization of transportation of raw materials and goods.
The scientific novelty of the study is determined by the justification for the need for comprehensive development of the transport system of Russia and Asian countries, in the current conditions of sanctions pressure and the reorientation of global markets. The hypothesis is that the modernization of transport arteries will be the basis for increasing labor productivity and forming an innovative transport support for the production potential of the country, not only through the supply of hydrocarbon raw materials to the West and Asia but through corporate participation in the development of an efficient transport infrastructure of the country in international business.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose The article outlines the arguments by the proponents and opponents of maximizing shareholder value and identifies the true threat the concept poses to U.S. businesses. Design/methodology/approach The author quotes authorities on both side of the debate over the validity of maximizing shareholder value as a driving principle of management and points out the risks and the alternatives. He notes that many long-established public corporations in the U.S. have chosen to bow to the power of shareholders and reward them instead of attempting risky initiatives that might create new customers or enhance customer value. Findings Maximizing shareholder value is either the guiding principle of business success that provides a rightful reward for investors or a corrupting influence that thwarts investment in employee talent, sustaining innovation, product quality and customer loyalty. Practical implications Since the C-suite is hugely compensated for increases in the current stock price, decisions based on “shareholder value” tend to be decisions that boost the current stock price. Social implications As evidence the problem is being recognized, some CEOs have already spoken out against preferentially rewarding stockholders instead of investing to sustain the organization. Originality/value The author concludes that shareholder value theory has not only failed on its own narrow terms of making money for shareholders. It has been steadily destroying the productive capacity and dynamism of the entire economy.

Full textAbstract:
Industrialization of construction is a business strategy to significantly improve competitiveness. However, the organization structure of the construction firms needs to support the new production system. The knowledge on why and how this business development can be accomplished is scarce, both within academia and in business practice. This research seeks to fill this knowledge gap. The purpose of organization structure and the production system have is to coordinate the firm’s processes and control the work performing resources. Information is one of the most fundamental dimensions for steering and controlling the work. The different information types are determined by the firm’s product customization strategy and the production system flexibility. Further, diverse information types are managed in different extent by the organizational steering mechanisms. Consequently, firms with dissimilar customization strategy or production flexibility should organizationally be designed differently in order to be efficient. The developed model identifies four generic production topologies: “engineer-to-order” (ETO), “manufacture-to-order” (MTO), “assembly-to-order” (ATO), and “make-standard-products” (MSP). The differences between the topologies can be related to the location of the “customer-order-decoupling-point” (CODP) in the product realization process; and to what extent the upstream and downstream processes continuously use stored information or process information to accomplish the work of each product order. The model predicts which organization structure mechanisms that should be used for which processes for each production topology. It is the specific configuration of the mechanisms that gives each production topology their organizational capability. The model has been validated by case studies in four organizations, each representing one of the four generic production topologies. Three cases considered housing and one studied truck manufacturing. It has been shown that the conventional housing firms have an ETO-production topology, while industrialized housing firms belonging to one of the others, i.e. MTO, ATO or MSP. The reason is that ETO-firms rely on crafts-based production to manage the work, while the other topologies base their steering mechanisms on industrial principles. These two types of production are fundamentally different, which also explain the need for different organization structures. The research complements previous knowledge and significantly increases the ability to predict, analyze and explain an organization’s design and behavior. The model can be used in practice to guide business development work and performance improvement programs.Research funder: SBUF (The development fund of the Swedish construction industry).

In a globalization environment and where uncertainty is more present, it is necessary to
adapt supply chains, in order to allow companies to be able to ensure their competitive
advantage.
In this way, Portuguese COMPANY X feels the need to understand the advantages
associated with a change in its production strategy.
Considering the lean strategies that help in this adaptation and that can be applied
throughout the supply chain, this study focuses specifically on the implementation of one
of these strategies in the production area.
Among all the existing businesses in the company, it was challenged that this analysis
should focus on the coffee business, since it is a growing business.
Therefore, this study focuses on the analysis of a possible implementation of a production
pull strategy, in order to assess whether the impacts on production costs and on holding
stock costs are advantageous compared to those existing in the current production strategy
- push production strategy.
At the same time, it is intended to compare the effects caused by different demand
variation scenarios between the current production strategy and the strategy under
analysis.
To analyze if there would be advantages in implementing a pull strategy in the production
area, a simulation tool was used - Anylogic. In this tool, was made a model which
represent the production process and another one that represents the stock process.Num ambiente de globalização e onde a incerteza está mais presente, torna-se necessário adaptar as cadeias de abastecimento, de forma a permitir que as empresas consigam assegurar a sua vantagem competitiva. Deste modo, a COMPANY X Portuguesa sente a necessidade de perceber quais as vantagens associadas a uma mudança na sua estratégia de produção. Levantadas as estratégias lean que ajudam nesta adaptação e que podem ser aplicadas ao longo de toda a cadeia, o presente estudo foca-se especificamente na implementação de uma destas estratégias na área de produção. De entre todos os negócios existentes na empresa, foi desafiado que esta análise incidisse no negócio de cafés, uma vez que é um negócio em crescimento. Posto isto, este estudo foca-se na análise de uma possível implementação de uma estratégia pull de produção, de modo a avaliar se os impactos sobre os custos de produção e sobre custos de posse de stock são vantajosos face aos existentes na estratégia de produção atual - estratégia de produção push. Ao mesmo tempo, pretende-se comparar os efeitos causados perante diversos cenários de variação da procura entre a estratégia de produção atual e a estratégia em análise. Para analisar se existiriam vantagens na implementação de uma estratégia pull na área de produção, foi utilizada uma ferramenta de simulação – Anylogic. Nesta ferramenta foi realizado um modelo que diz respeito à produção e outro modelo que diz respeito ao processo de stocks.

AbstractThe purpose of the Business Model Template (BMT) is to help you turn your idea into a viable project or organization. To illustrate this, two real-life case studies are offered in this chapter. Firstly, the KipCaravan project, which is a mobile home—a caravan—for chickens. It involves low-scale egg production in several locations. Secondly, the Sun at School NSV2 project in the city of Nijmegen. For both projects you will find a step-by-step description of the different routes followed. As you will see, the interpretation of the building blocks is different for every project and there is no best order in which to stack the building blocks. Bear in mind that both projects are still up and running successfully at the time of writing. These examples are shown in simplified versions and with the benefit of hindsight, of course. Perhaps the essence of doing business is having the courage to start without a ready-made recipe.

AbstractIn 2016, the Indonesian government established seven village forests in East Tebing Tinggi Sub-district, Riau Province. These social forestry schemes grant rights to the local society to manage communal land for ecological and livelihood benefits. To do this, they need to identify and value the products and services of the natural resource assets. This study conducts a rapid spatial assessment for an ecosystem service valuation with the participation of local representatives, demonstrating that the integration of a spatial approach and local participation is scientifically implementable for the village forest authority. Using the peat ecosystem services approach, the study estimates that seven village forests contain approximately 36.2 million tons of carbon stocks from the peat soil and peat forest biomass in the form of regulating services. Supporting services are evident in the government’s regulation of ecological conditions based on its designation of peat ecosystem function. The agro-ecosystem of sago plantations for food production offers provisioning services. Local residents and governments support the potential of ecotourism to enhance socio-cultural value via cultural services. All these services demonstrate how the environmental returns for both local livelihoods and a sustainable ecosystem are possible to achieve at the local level. However, support from governments and organizations is required to ensure that local communities can continue to hold the communal land right.

Lobster fisheries represent some of the most iconic and valuable fisheries in the world. This chapter provides an overview of the commercial species of lobster in the families Palinuridae, Nephropidae, and Scyllaridae, commonly known as spiny, clawed, and slipper lobsters, respectively. Together, in 2015 these fisheries comprised about 14% of the economic value of crustacean fisheries globally. While the clawed lobster fisheries rank as the world’s most productive lobster fisheries, the spiny and slipper lobster fisheries are by far the most diverse. Notably, the clawed lobsters of the genera Homarus and Nephrops of the cool, temperate North Atlantic dominate world lobster production, whereas fisheries for the spiny lobster genera Panulirus, Palinurus, and Jasus and two slipper lobster genera, Thenus and Scyllarides, span much of the world’s tropical and warm temperate coastal zones. The review starts with a description of the distinguishing features of the biology and life history of the three families, including a geographic overview of their fisheries and how they are managed. Then discussed are the challenges confronting lobster fishing industries, fishery managers, and scientists in a changing ecosystem and global economy. The chapter closes by identifying directions for future research to address these challenges. Although space precludes an exhaustive review of all 27 commercial lobster fisheries recognized by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), consistent and compelling themes emerge across the well-studied fisheries. Where long-term fisheries and environmental data time series have accumulated, it is evident that the geographic ranges of the productive segments of the fisheries are shifting poleward, forcing fishery scientists to reconsider long-held assumptions of stationarity common in stock assessment. These changes, in concert with the sometimes unpredictable forces of a global economy, have become a driving force for new innovations in the business and management of lobster fisheries.

A sharp distinction must be made between the concepts of « firm » and of « corporation ». The firm is an organization performing an economic activity. The corporation is a type of legal person, most firms of some significance being organized using corporations. A World Wide Web of Contracts is in existence which connects almost everyone to almost everyone. In this web of contracts, some are pure sale and purchase contracts. At the other end of the spectrum, one finds relatively stable clusters of long-term contracts. Some are the contractual substratum of business firms. The Chapter goes on explaining the legal structure of the unincorporated business firm, its position in the World Wide Web of Contracts and the notion of the firm’s limits. It then explains the incorporation process and what changes when a corporation is used to legally structure a business firm. The importance for the corporation to be a legal person is stressed and the fact that the incorporation leads to two separate forms of property rights linked to the same assets - the property right over the productive assets and the property right over the shares of stock issued by the corporation - is explained.

Chapter 2 evaluates the implementation of the reforms offered by international financial institutions and shows the propensity of these plans to foster corruption and extreme wealth inequality and, in many cases, an economic collapse that was far greater than what had been foreseen. Those connected to the old regimes or with significant outside financial backing were able to capitalize on misguided and poorly implemented privatization plans. The chapter also explores how corrupt incentive structures created the oligarch class that is the primary driver of economic inequality in the postsocialist world. Finally, it considers the depth and length of transitional recessions, analyzing economic data to show that, in many cases, recovery took decades, and for the worst hit countries, productive capacity has yet to reach pre-1989 levels. Highlighting the dramatic rise of poverty during transition, this chapter points to the failure of the international organizations’ “targeted” poverty-prevention strategy.

Supply chain comprises the flow of products, information, and money. In traditional supply chain management, business processes are disconnected from stock control and, as a result, inventory is the direct output of incomplete information. The focus of contemporary supply chain management is to organize, plan, and implement these flows. First, at the organizational level, products are manufactured, transported, and stored based on the customers’ needs. Second, planning and control of component production, storage, and transport are managed using central supply management and replenished through centralized procurement. Third, the implementation of the supply chain involves the entire cycle from the order-entry process to order fulfillment and delivery. Data mining can create a better match between supply and demand, reducing or sometimes even eliminating the stocks.

Organizations have become more permeable — integrating more influences from the outside world — as participants engage in such online diversions as trading stocks, engaging in multiplayer games, or viewing images of their children in daycare. Availability of these activities has brought the potential for abuse but also new opportunities. Constructive uses of online recreation and play can enhance many workplaces (especially high-tech and information-saturated ones) and perhaps ultimately make them more productive. Human resource (HR) professionals can become active in exploring and tailoring constructive recreation strategies for specific workplace contexts. Many organizational roles today demand high levels of creativity and mental flexibility, and constructive uses of online recreation can help individuals gain fresh perspectives. This chapter proposes that these complex issues be resolved through participatory approaches, involving workgroups and HR professionals in discussions as to what constitutes “constructive recreation,” as well as in development and dissemination of effective and fair organizational policies.

Abstract The organization of the management of an oil and gas producing enterprise has not experienced major changes over the past few decades. At the same time, extractive enterprises face numerous problems and challenges: - Deteriorating stock quality, oil price volatility and volatility of market in general, These problems are accompanied by a decrease in the efficiency of production: an increase in the water content of the stock, an increase in the number of downtime and complications on the stock, the appearance of unproductive lifting-costs All this leads to a drop in the economic efficiency of asset development. Current challenges, such as flexible production management, its economic efficiency, deterioration of the structure and quality of the resource base, the need for system-based linking of a large amount of additional information about the field on the one hand and a huge variety of calculation and digital tools on the other, dictate the need for an integrated transformation of the principles of production management of an oil and gas producing enterprise. We offer you to familiarize yourself with the approach to the organization of oil and gas production management based on an effective process model and integrated digital solutions, the purpose of which is to optimize the operation of the field and ensure the growth of free cash flow from production.

Under of the existing organizational and economic conditions of commodity production in the crop production sector, there are no trends towards positive changes in the expansion of the complex of implementation of land conservation measures and the prudent attitude towards the use of agricultural land. Instead, the increase in profits and yields, the expansion of arable land in the narrowing of the agricultural land provoke a decrease in the level of agroecological safety, the spread of erosion and degradation processes, the decrease of humus stocks and the level of fertility However, despite the increase in the economic efficiency of the crop sub-sector of agriculture, the scope and organization of the implementation of measures to restore and preserve agroresource potential require radical changes on scientifically grounded positions.

Oil and gas lifting is a key performance indicator for SKK Migas. Oil and gas lifting shall mean the amount of oil and/or gas production which has been sold/distributed. Lifting is assessed based on the achievement of targets that have been determined by the government through the state revenue and expenditure budget (APBN) or on technical figures that are evaluated and agreed upon in the work plan and budget (WP&B). During the period of 2016-2020, observations were made on the performance of Indonesia's oil and gas lifting and the draining of oil tank stocks at the end of each year. At a regional level, the South Sumatera Region has a number of custody transfer points and monitoring points for oil and gas lifting spread across three provinces. This paper also discusses what has been done in the area to improve the performance of lifting operations and reducing dead stock. The lifting supervision method refers to the knowledge of the quantity accounting system (QAS), application of procedures and the use of appropriate instruments. Several changes were made to the lifting supervision strategy starting in 2018. The competence of personnel is strengthened by training and field introductions. The lifting supervisory organization was formed with the setup of regional representative offices in order to improve access to information. The officers supervise the compliance with lifting procedures. Lifting supervisors coordinate with PSC Contractors through shipping coordination (shipcoord), oil distribution operations coordination (KOPM), and gas coordination meeting (GCM). Engagement to field implementer and surveyors is carried out for the accuracy of the lifting equipment and figures. The work schedule of field supervisors is optimized accordingly. Several adjustments in lifting operation were made as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic in order to maintain lifting performance. During the period of 2016-2020, the average performance of Indonesia's oil and gas lifting was 99% of production, followed by a significantly decline in year-end stock levels by an average of 53%. The realization of the lifting figure in the South Sumatra region is 100% of the nomination figure. The South Sumatra region contributes 10% of the national lifting. Lifting supervision carried out according to procedures and supported by good cooperation between the parties, will achieve the lifting operation performance target as expected. This paper provides a fairly complete picture of how lifting operations are carried out and how much lifting supervision has an effect on increasing lifting performance. This paper is also expected to contribute knowledge that can be utilized by lifting supervisors.

Abstract With the integration of CAD and FEA software packages, design engineers who are not skilled in finite element analysis are performing finite element modeling and analysis. Furthermore, in the analysis of a system, engineers often make numerous modeling simplifications and analysis assumptions depending on the trade-off between cost, accuracy, precision or other engineering analysis objectives. Thus, reusability or interoperability of engineering analysis models is difficult and often impractical due to the wealth of knowledge involved in the creation of such models and the lack of formal methods to codify and explicitly represent this critical modeling knowledge. Most institutions and organizations have started documenting these simplifications and assumptions, making them understandable for the other engineers within the organization. However, this does not allow a seamless exchange of data or interoperability with other analysis models of similar or dissimilar nature. This plays a very important role in today’s market, which is moving away from the traditional make-to-stock production model to a build-to-demand model. We address these issues in this paper by adopting and extending the computer science concept of meta-object, and applying it in novel ways to the domain of FEA and the representation of finite element modeling knowledge. We present a taxonomy for engineering models that aids in the definition of the various object analysis classes. A simple beam analysis example, followed by a more realistic injection-molded part example. The latter example involves injection-mold filling simulation, thermal cooling, and part ejection analyses which are subclasses for a generic manufacturing analysis meta-object class. Prototype implementations of automated support for this meta-object approach to finite element modeling is in progress.

The pursued goal of the present paper is to foresee modular solutions which are suitable for scale production of mobile robots for surveillance in airport indoor and outdoor areas. To this aim, a possible mechatronic modular architecture is proposed, giving details about the mechanical layout, the actuation characteristics, the power supply figures and the command-control organization. The application of quite consolidated modularity methodologies, already successfully exploited in the industrial field, offers the possibility of creating different mobile robots by the proper combinations of basic frame modules and traction/steering modules; this allows to match different requirements in terms of vehicle mobility (average speed, number of traction/steering wheels, maximum slope, etc.) and operability (payload, autonomy, type of onboard equipment, size/arrangements, etc.). Modularity, other than in the production phase, gives significant advantages during service and maintenance, reducing the MTTR and improving the overall availability. It is worthwhile noting how the outlined approach to mobile robotic systems may be effectively extended to the monitoring of similar sites, such as large squares, stock-park spots, containers districts, cars storing places, and the likes.

Collaboration between engineering and manufacturing can significantly reduce product costs, and increase product quality. The definition, capture and re-use of standard design features, with their associated proven manufacturing processes in the design stage can significantly reduce manufacturing cost and time to market. Today, 3D models are becoming the central repository for more and more of the critical information which is necessary throughout the Product Development Process. Significant process improvements are possible when organizations embrace the idea of a model-centric design approach, where not only geometry and attributes are captured in the 3D CAD model, but also other data relevant downstream data such as GD&T, 3D annotations, and now even manufacturing process information. The strategies for actually machining and producing designs are important assets for companies. Now, existing manufacturing process knowledge can be capture by the manufacturing engineer using XML based template, and through the use of new CAD technology, this knowledge can be attach to design features. The design feature geometry and attributes (along with the embedded process knowledge) can then be made available to the broader organization, through catalogs of company standard design features such as holes, pocket, step, groove, flange, .. etc. During the engineering activities, as the design model evolves, the design engineer is able to re-use these standard features, creating a 3D model that not only includes the geometric definition of the product, but also the validated, proven process by which that geometry can best be produced. Downstream, once the design is handed off to manufacturing, the manufacturing or process engineer has access to tools that will allow him to extract the process information from the 3D model and define rules to automate the creation of the machining process plan for this model. Specific fixtures required for the different steps of the process can be easily developed using the in-process 3D model, which is generated automatically based on stock removal. Multiple scenarios, based on varying machining resources, production quantity and cycle time, can be analyzed, allowing the process engineer to develop and optimized process plan. This model-centric approach, which leverages product and process data re-use, improves product quality and reduces manufacturing process planning and production time. Typical savings are realized in tool design, increased production throughput and savings due to improved process quality from using validated processes prior to production.

<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">When we see a tangible creation and our inquisitive nature crave to have touch and feel of the same, many questions hover our mind like what it is, what does it do and how it was made. All man-made creations which first get conceived in human mind pass through several processes and evaluation in order to be eventually ready for usage and application. The evaluation and reviews are required so that the final product which is a part of the creation, functions the same as it was intended to do. The analysis which could be limited to part level or system level gives us a foresight into any possibility of pre-production or pre-release failures which might be barriers in the success of the product. Tolerance stack up is one of such analysis approaches used today in product design to understand how imperfections in parts as they are manufactured, and later assembled as products, affect its capability to meet customer requirements. Tolerance stack helps engineers to study any accumulated variation in parts in a product assembly. It is a way of understanding how sources of variation in part dimensions and assembly constraints propagate across parts and assemblies, and how this variation affects meeting the design requirements within process capability of manufacturing organizations. We get these dimensions and tolerances from the engineering drawings. If we consider the most common techniques used for tolerance stack analysis like Worst Case method (WC) and RSS method (Root-Sum-Squared), they have limitations in attending complex architectures, allowing flexibility to designers and cost. CETOL 6 Sigma utilizes a method called Method of System Moments which disregards these limitations. An example of this approach utilizing CETOL 6σ software application will be presented in this paper.</div></div>

Abstract This paper is for people to realize a strategic way of continuous improvement though optimization and standardization process with a minimum of 10% target cost reduction while developing capability in the organization in the south of Oman. BN area is one of the main production areas in PDO (Petroleum Development of Oman) and is being operated under BR cluster from 1980s. Approximately eleven fields in the BN area are contributing to the success today. Continuous improvement through optimization and cost reduction has always been a top priority, where long term production and safety has been fulfilled. In 2020, this team has been put together to look into the overall cost saving potential with the clear management steering of "Do not Leave any Stone Unturned". A mixture of experience and young team members are retained to ensure capability development in the organization. One of the key items that this team looked at is to standardize of upcoming Oil Producers and Water Injectors well design. The well design in at least 7 fields in the BN area has been reviewed and realized the value and risk through competitive scoping exercise. By avoiding looking at the fields in isolation, the team has considered a similarity of well functionality and had identified where the standard well design can be applied. Minimum functional requirements lead to minimum technical specification and building into a staircase of option with clear associated risk for each option. Through the analysis, a potential optimization of an existing well design has been discovered and is currently undergone further maturation toward design endorsement. With the maturation of the uniformity of well design in the area, it is foreseeing as an opportunity to ensure improvement can be sustained in the long run. Minimum 10% saving of well cost through standardization and efficiency in project management is a target set, aiming to provide stability in planning. In addition, the team are looking into even more than 10% cost saving through innovative contracting strategy. It could potentially help to speed up the delivery of the project, accelerate production with less waiting time i.e. improve material stock management, simplify procurement process, ensure that the experience remains in the organization and will allow for replication in the future. The approach involves a combination of integrating team from subsurface, surface, wells, contract, and procurement to enhance cost saving to the company. This has proven to be effective and aligned with the company's focus to consolidate a commercial mind-set thinking in each development.

A high level of competitiveness of the market has forced corporations to reinvent themselves in order to survive. From this perspective, the food industry is extremely competitive and requires continuous improvement processes to meet the standards of their consumers. Objectives: This article aims to identify failures in the production line and propose improvements in its process, using the Lean methodology in a restaurant located in the interior of the state of Rio de Janeiro. Through observations of the production process, meetings with managers and interviews with the employees, two Lean tools were applied, the 5S and the Heijunka, to identify the restaurant's problems and suggest improvements. With the implementation of 5S, it was possible to identify failures in the storage, the organization of physical space and equipment also in the garbage sorting. To solve these issues, changes were made, improvement of the classification of stored materials, layout modifications, equipment reorganization, purchase of selective trash cans and confection of explanatory posters to guide employees on how to organize and clean the work environment, aiming at the improvement of processes. Applying Heijunka, it was found that the menu was one of the restaurant's problems due to the large amount of available dishes, which turned the waiting time longer and a bigger inventory. The problem was solved by updating the menu to make it leaner. The use of Lean tools made possible the improvements in the establishment's processes, leveling the production, reducing the waiting time of the orders, solving the problem of stock variety, providing a reduction in waste and customer complaints in the restaurant.

Lazonick, William. Investing in Innovation: A Policy Framework for Attaining Sustainable Prosperity in the United States. Institute for New Economic Thinking Working Paper Series, March 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.36687/inetwp182.
Full textAbstract:
“Sustainable prosperity” denotes an economy that generates stable and equitable growth for a large and growing middle class. From the 1940s into the 1970s, the United States appeared to be on a trajectory of sustainable prosperity, especially for white-male members of the U.S. labor force. Since the 1980s, however, an increasing proportion of the U.S labor force has experienced unstable employment and inequitable income, while growing numbers of the business firms upon which they rely for employment have generated anemic productivity growth. Stable and equitable growth requires innovative enterprise. The essence of innovative enterprise is investment in productive capabilities that can generate higher-quality, lower-cost goods and services than those previously available. The innovative enterprise tends to be a business firm—a unit of strategic control that, by selling products, must make profits over time to survive. In a modern society, however, business firms are not alone in making investments in the productive capabilities required to generate innovative goods and services. Household units and government agencies also make investments in productive capabilities upon which business firms rely for their own investment activities. When they work in a harmonious fashion, these three types of organizations—household units, government agencies, and business firms—constitute “the investment triad.” The Biden administration’s Build Back Better agenda to restore sustainable prosperity in the United States focuses on investment in productive capabilities by two of the three types of organizations in the triad: government agencies, implementing the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, and household units, implementing the yet-to-be-passed American Families Act. Absent, however, is a policy agenda to encourage and enable investment in innovation by business firms. This gaping lacuna is particularly problematic because many of the largest industrial corporations in the United States place a far higher priority on distributing the contents of the corporate treasury to shareholders in the form of cash dividends and stock buybacks for the sake of higher stock yields than on investing in the productive capabilities of their workforces for the sake of innovation. Based on analyzes of the “financialization” of major U.S. business corporations, I argue that, unless Build Back Better includes an effective policy agenda to encourage and enable corporate investment in innovation, the Biden administration’s program for attaining stable and equitable growth will fail. Drawing on the experience of the U.S. economy over the past seven decades, I summarize how the United States moved toward stable and equitable growth from the late 1940s through the 1970s under a “retain-and-reinvest” resource-allocation regime at major U.S. business firms. Companies retained a substantial portion of their profits to reinvest in productive capabilities, including those of career employees. In contrast, since the early 1980s, under a “downsize-and-distribute” corporate resource-allocation regime, unstable employment, inequitable income, and sagging productivity have characterized the U.S. economy. In transition from retain-and-reinvest to downsize-and-distribute, many of the largest, most powerful corporations have adopted a “dominate-and-distribute” resource-allocation regime: Based on the innovative capabilities that they have previously developed, these companies dominate market segments of their industries but prioritize shareholders in corporate resource allocation. The practice of open-market share repurchases—aka stock buybacks—at major U.S. business corporations has been central to the dominate-and-distribute and downsize-and-distribute regimes. Since the mid-1980s, stock buybacks have become the prime mode for the legalized looting of the business corporation. I call this looting process “predatory value extraction” and contend that it is the fundamental cause of the increasing concentration of income among the richest household units and the erosion of middle-class employment opportunities for most other Americans. I conclude the paper by outlining a policy framework that could stop the looting of the business corporation and put in place social institutions that support sustainable prosperity. The agenda includes a ban on stock buybacks done as open-market repurchases, radical changes in incentives for senior corporate executives, representation of workers and taxpayers as directors on corporate boards, reform of the tax system to reward innovation and penalize financialization, and, guided by the investment-triad framework, government programs to support “collective and cumulative careers” of members of the U.S. labor force. Sustained investment in human capabilities by the investment triad, including business firms, would make it possible for an ever-increasing portion of the U.S. labor force to engage in the productive careers that underpin upward socioeconomic mobility, which would be manifested by a growing, robust, and hopeful American middle class.

Israel and the U.S. send to Europe rooted cuttings, foundation stocks and finished plants to supply a certain share of the market. Geraniums are propagated mainly vegetatively from cuttings. Consequently, viral diseases have been and remain a major threat to the production and quality of the crop. Among the viruses isolated from naturally infected geraniums, 11 are not specific to Pelargonium and occur in other crops while 6 other viruses seem to be limited to geranium. However, several of these viruses are not sufficiently characterized to conclude that they are distinct agents and their nomenclature and taxonomy are confusing. The ability to separate, distinguish and detect the different viruses in geranium will overcome obstacles te developing effective detection and certification schemes. Our focus was to further characterize some of these viruses and develop better methods for their detection and control. These viruses include: isolates of pelargonium line pattern virus (PLPV), pelargonium ringspot virus (PelRSV), pelargonium flower break virus (PFBV), pelargonium leaf curl (PLCV), and tomato ringspot virus (TomRSV). Twelve hybridoma cell lines secreting monoclonal antibodies specific to a geranium isolate of TomRSV were produced. These antibodies are currently being characterized and will be tested for the ability to detect TomRSV in infected geraniums. The biological, biochemical and serological properties of four isometric viruses - PLPV, PelRSV, and PFBV (and a PelRSV-like isolate from Italy called GR57) isolated from geraniums exhibiting line and ring pattern or flower break symptoms - and an isolate ol elderbeny latent virus (ELV; which the literature indicates is the same as PelRSV) have been determined Cloned cDNA copies of the genomic RNAs of these viruses were sequenced and the sizes and locations of predicted viral proteins deduced. A portion of the putative replicase genes was also sequenced from cloned RT-PCR fragments. We have shown that, when compared to the published biochemical and serological properties, and sequences and genome organizations of other small isometric plant viruses, all of these viruses should each be considered new, distinct members of the Carmovirus group of the family Tombusviridae. Hybridization assays using recombinant DNA probes also demonstrated that PLPV, PelRSV, and ELV produce only one subgenomic RNA in infected plants. This unusual property of the gene expression of these three viruses suggests that they are unique among the Carmoviruses. The development of new technologies for the detection of these viruses in geranium was also demonstrated. Hybridization probes developed to PFBV (radioactively-labeled cRNA riboprobes) and to PLPV (non-radioactive digoxigenin-labeled cDNAs) were generally shown to be no more sensitive for the detection of virus in infected plants than the standard ELISA serology-based assays. However, a reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction assay was shown to be over 1000 times more sensitive in detecting PFBV in leaf extracts of infected geranium than was ELISA. This research has lead to a better understanding of the identity of the viruses infecting pelargonium and to the development of new tools that can be used in an improved scheme of providing virus-indexed pelargonium plants. The sequence information, and the serological and cloned DNA probes generated from this work, will allow the application of these new tools for virus detection, which will be useful in domestic and international indexing programs which are essential for the production of virus-free germplasm both for domestic markets and the international exchange of plant material.
