On Tuesday, 14 May 2024, a Dissertation Examination for a DRM student specializing in Strategy & Growth on behalf of Wihaga Satya Khresna [2340004091] entitled “Big Data Analytic and Knowledge Management Factors Leverage on Upstream Oilfield Service Industry’s Project Management and Quality Management Practices in Achieving Sustainable Project” was held in Alam Sutera Campus, Room B0301, Bina Nusantara University.
The dissertation examination was led by Prof. Dr. Mts. Arief, M.M., MBA., CPM, and attended by a team of promotors and examiners. There were three promotors in attendance with Prof. Dr. Ir. Harjanto Prabowo, MM. as Promotor 1, Prof. Dr. Ir. Mohammad Hamsal, MSE., MQM., M.B.A., CISCP as Promotor 2, and Dr. Ir. Boto Simatupang, MBP as Promotor 3. There were also examiners present, with Prof. Idris Gautama So, S.E., S.Kom., M.M., Ph.D as Examiner 1, Dr. Elidjen, S.Kom., MInfoCommTech as Examiner 2, and Dr. Irwan Djaja, M.App.Fin as Examiner 3. Prof. Dr. Pribadiyono, Ir.,M.S was also present as a guest speaker for the dissertation examination.
DISSERTATION SUMMARY
The study aims to determine leverage factors of big data analytics and knowledge management implementation that affect upstream oilfield projects’ success from the lenses of project management and quality management practice in ensuring project sustainability. Upstream oil & gas projects executed by the project management office of oilfield service contractors globally are the focus of this study. This study delivers strategic insight as well as pathways for future research in bridging the resource-based theory of big data analytics, knowledge management, and the strict nature of project and quality management practices in the era of environmental uncertainties within the context of the high-risk nature of upstream oil and gas projects. Based on this research, it can be concluded that in achieving project sustainability in the upstream oil and gas service industry, as seen from the integration of the implementation of Project Management Practice and Quality Management Practice, it needs to be supported by existing research results. Big Data Analytic can find out how to monitor quality and Big Data Analytic can also assist managers in making decision making. In this study it was proven by an analytical test on each research variable and the results were obtained as Big data analytic capability has positive influence on project management practices.
