Dynamic Capabilities in Accelerating U-Shape Girder Precast Production for the Jabodebek LRT Project

LRT Jabodebek as the first LRT infrastructure project in Indonesia has provided lessons on the implementation of dynamic capabilities on manufacturing aspects for the construction industry. In order to meet the requirements 2900 units of U-Shape Girder, production under normal conditions is expected to be completed by 2020. The acceleration of completion led to a significant increase in project requirements, accelerated completion of construction led to production shortages. Meeting the need for acceleration requires factories to be able to increase their production capacity by using steam curing methods. This case study uses a qualitative approach and focuses on dynamic capabilities in the production process. As a role model of application of manufacturing dynamic capability, the project has demonstrated the role of technology in increasing productivity. The integration of methods, asset positioning, and management processes are the most dominant productivity factors in accelerating the production of U-Shape precast girder. Optimum production performance can be achieved by integrating factory roles, project sites and management supported by adequate resources and staff experience
