Supriadi, L S R (2014) Implementing business continuity management (bcm) using a knowledge based decision support system (kbdss) for indonesian contractors. PhD thesis, National University of Singapore, Singapore.
Abstract
To become resilient and capable of providing an effective response to crises, Indonesian contractors need to adopt a systematic management concept in their organizations. Business Continuity Management (BCM) provides this framework, where it is not only focusing on overcoming crises, but also conducting activities that are needed for keeping the business operations running during a period of displacement or interruption. The initial step in developing BCM for Indonesian contractors is to understand the BCM implementation through its principles and non-technical aspects which are the organizational culture and institutional forces. Moreover, a Knowledge Based Decision Support System (KBDSS) can be used for developing this guideline. This study provides the contributions to knowledge and practice, particularly to the improved understanding of BCM implementation for Indonesian contractors Also, BCM-KBDSS as the practical contribution is developed where it provides an effective BCM level of preparedness assessment process.

N.B. Descriptive scope is a count of how many of the five facets of empirical research are indicated by the words used in title, abstract and keywords. It is not intended as a judgement on the research; merely a count of the kind of word we would expect to indicate Phenomenon, Concepts, Theoretical framing, Empirical techniques, Analytical techniques. If all five are present, then a code of “5 PCTEA” will indicate this. If you feel the coding for this record is questionable, we welcome discussion around the terms we matched or the way we categorized them. The facet you would expect may not be coded, or a facet may be coded inappropriately. This can also bear on a larger question, of which facets should be treated as defining in construction management research. Please get in touch, and we will look at it. More details here
