dc.description.abstract | In carrying out construction projects, many resources are needed such as
equipment, labor, materials, and finance. Good finance is obtained through optimal
cash flow planning. Determining the right payment system can provide maximum
profit for the contractor. To determine a good payment system and maximum profit,
so a research was conducted on the Palm Oil Mill Contruction Project.
Data were processed by making the sequence and description of each activity
on the project to determine the deadline (float) using the Microsoft Project application
that uses the PDM network principle to obtain the Earliest Start Time (EST) and Latest
Start Time (LST) scheduling conditions. Then the cash flow calculation is carried out
with a monthly payment system and a 10% progress term with a down payment of 0%,
20%, 30% respectively in EST and LST conditions so as to get an optimal form of cash
flow with maximum profit.
The results of the data analysis show that project scheduling under EST
conditions provides greater benefits to contractors than under LST scheduling
conditions and the payment system that provides maximum benefits is the 10%
progress term payment system with a 30% down payment on EST conditions and LST
conditions which both generate final closing value of Rp. 129,579,738 and a profit of
9.985%. | en_US |
