Reach UISU FE lecturers S3 from "Batik"

Dosen tetap Fakultas Ekonomi (FE) Universitas Islam Sumatera Utara (UISU) Eddi Suprayitno berhasil meraih gelar doktor (S3) dari Universitas Padjadjaran (Unpad) Bandung.
Gelar doktor yang diraih dengan predikat sangat memuaskan itu setelah mempertahankan desertasinya mengenai batik dengan judul ”Pengaruh Orientasi Pasar dan Kapabilitas Inovasi dalam Meningkatkan Nilai Pelanggan Serta Dampaknya terhadap Keunggulan Bersaing Perusahaan”.
Sidang yang digelar Selasa (10/11) itu diketuai Prof Dr Ir H Mahfud Arifin MS dan sekretaris sidang Prof Dr H Engkus Kuswarno MS. Tim promotor di antaranya Prof Dr H Sucherly SE MS, Prof Dr H Faisal Afiff SE Spec.Lic dan Nury Effendi SE MA PhD. Hadir pada acara tersebut,
Dekan FE UISU Edi Sofian SE MSi dan beberapa alumni FE se-Jabotabek.
Desertasi dengan survei pada industri batik di DI Yogyakarta menyimpulkan, industri batik Yogya sebagian besar belum menerapkan orientasi pasar terutama dalam menerapkan orientasi pelanggan, orientasi pesaing dan koordinasi interfungsional. Industri batik Yogya secara umum mempunyai tingkat kapabilitas inovasi yang masih rendah.
“Terutama dalam inovasi pemimpin/manajerial, inovasi proses produksi, inovasi produk, sumber inovasi internal dan eksternal serta implementasi inovasi. Hal ini harus dibenahi dalam mengembangkan industri batik Yogya,” kata Edi di kampus UISU Jalan SM Raja Medan, Jumat (13/12).
Dijelaskan, nilai pelanggan industri batik Yogya secara rata-rata dalam kategori superior customer value. Orientasi pasar dan kapabilitas inovasi mempunyai keterkaitan dalam meningkatkan nilai pelanggan pada industri batik Yogya. Kapabilitas inovasi berperan dominan dalam meningkatkan nilai pelanggan yang superior pada industri batik Yogya.
Oleh sebab itu disarankan agar industri batik Yogya harus berahi masuk ke segmen pasar yang lebih luas dan tidak terfokus pada yang sudah ada serta melakukan pengembangan produk terutama batik kontemporer.
Sementara itu, dekan FE UISU, Edi Sofian mengaharapkan dengan adanya penambahan tenaga pengajar yang bergelar S-3 dapat meningkatkan motivasi para dosen lainnya untuk melanjutkan pendidikan ke jenjang yang lebih tinggi. “Hal ini akan meningkatkan kwalitas pendidikan di FE UISU,” katanya.
