Indonesia has been striving to become the world’s largest ornamental fish exporter for the past two decades, but success has been limited. This study analyzes Indonesia’s export competitiveness and identifies the barriers encountered. A trade analysis using the UN-Comtrade database for 2012–2021 was conducted using the Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA), Constant Market Shares (CMS), and Competitiveness Matrix formulas to evaluate the competitiveness. Qualitative data from interviews with forty-three industry stakeholders were analyzed using NVivo to evaluate export barriers. The findings revealed that Indonesia had not been optimally exporting to some of the world’s largest markets and faced various barriers, such as product quality and continuity, regulations, marketing, shipment, and other internal and external barriers. The government’s role in overcoming those barriers is crucial while maintaining environmental sustainability. We also propose a matrix model for export barrier levels consisting of export readiness, export market accessibility, export operational challenges, and dynamic export environment.

Micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSME) are vital to economic growth, particularly in developing nations. In ambiguous and unpredictable business situations, strategic management in various industries has extensively used dynamic capabilities (DC) theory to pursue a competitive advantage. The objective of this study is to construct an integrated conceptual model for DC in MSME in the agribusiness sector. Using the PRISMA (preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analysis) protocol, the study employs a systematic literature review methodology in order to achieve the goals. A comprehensive search of the Scopus database using keywords and search strings returned 443 papers published between 2002 and 2022, with 26 relevant research highlighted and synthesized. The study results indicate that the integrated model of DC focuses on three aspects: the antecedent, the process, and the outcome. This article’s findings should be regarded as a guide or road map for future empirical studies on the subject of DC in MSME.

One key to a project’s success other than the competence of the Project Manager is the competence of the project team personnel. Many problems occur that affecting the success of the Oil and Gas EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) project such as project schedule delayed, cost overruns, poor quality project performance to a life-threatening safety problem caused by incompetent personnel. The goal of this paper is to develop competency standard for Engineering Manager as one of the key personnel in the EPC project in the oil and gas industry. The competency standard will be developed based on literature study and data from several project execution plans in Indonesia which are validated by experts. Furthermore, risk analysis will be conducted by survey to get major risk that may be faced by an Engineering Manager which affecting time, cost, quality and safety to the project. As a result, risk based standard competency for engineering manager is expected to be produced.
