digital leadership capability
2026
This study investigates the interactions among leadership capability (LCAP), organisation capability (OCAP), emphasising the mediating role of digital mindset (DIND) and the moderating effect of digital technology capability (DCAP) in the Malaysian construction industry. Data from 341 managerial leaders, analysed through confirmatory composite analysis and the bootstrap method, indicate that a strong LCAP significantly enhances the leadership styles. The DIND mediates the relationship between LCAP and OCAP, confirming that enhanced digital leadership capability (DLCAP) is crucial for transforming OCAP towards effective organisational innovation. Furthermore, DCAP negatively moderates the relationship between leadership and organisational capability. The current lack of automation demands more effective management of organizational challenges, highlighting a key area for future technological advancement. These findings extend the discourse on digital literacy by offering practical insights for construction stakeholders striving to incorporate the Construction Industry Competency Standard (CICS) through advancements in digital capabilities. Moreover, provides an understanding of DLCAP on the synergy between digital technology, leadership styles and organisational innovation, offering valuable perspectives for policymakers and construction leaders aiming to foster continuous digital transformation within the construction industry.

This study investigates the interactions among leadership capability (LCAP) and organization capability (OCAP) in the Malaysian construction industry, emphasizing the mediating role of digital mindset (DIND) and the moderating effect of digital technology capability (DCAP). Data from 341 managerial-level personnel were analysed through Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), indicating that strong leadership styles significantly enhance the organization’s innovation and digital mindset. The DIND mediates the relationship between LCAP and OCAP, confirming that enhanced digital leadership capabilities (DLCAP) are crucial for transforming leadership styles towards effective organization innovation. Furthermore, DCAP negatively moderates the relationship between LCAP and OCAP; the deficiency of automation demands to manage organizational management challenges effectively, but as future development. These findings extend digital literacy by integrating leaders and organizational innovation dimensions and offer practical insights for construction stakeholders striving to incorporate Construction Industry Competency Standard (CICS) practices through technological and digital advancement. This research enriches the disclosure on the synergy between technology and environmental innovation within the knowledge of DLCAP standards. It provides valuable perspectives for policymakers and construction leaders aiming to foster awareness, realization, and transformation of technologically adept constant innovation as a digital roadmap.

Organizations now use warehouse efficiency as a centre of expertise or a strategic weapon. A warehouse that works well can meet customer needs quickly and helps a business do better. So, the goal of this study is to look at how the attributes of a warehouse affect warehouse efficiency. This study looks at two attributes about warehouses: their layout and warehouse operations. A literature review was first conducted to find the role of warehouse attributes (layout and operation) in warehouse efficiency to draw lessons from the literature. The articles that were published between 2019 and 2022 were examined. The authors evaluated the studies' eligibility, retrieved data from the studies that were included, and assessed the study's quality and bias risk. Several studies showed that the attributes of a warehouse make a big difference in how well it works by showing the good effects on efficiency. Also, a warehouse is more efficient when it is set up in a way that makes it easy to meet customer needs quickly. Along with how the warehouse is set up, warehouse operations are a key part of making it more efficient. Layout and operations work together to make a warehouse more efficient as a whole.

A Framework of Intra-Organisational Knowledge Sharing Practices in Implementing Bim within the Malaysian Construction Industry
2019
The Malaysian construction industry has been urged by the government to implement BIM to become a stable, developed, and modernised country by the year 2020. In the Malaysian context, research has shown that BIM implementation is relatively low and is still facing some challenges. Lack of understanding and knowledge remains a significant barrier to BIM adoption. Meanwhile, knowledge sharing (KS) is acknowledged as the essence of technological capability development to start the dissemination process, preventing the loss of knowledge and lessons learned, and also to increase operational efficiencies. The practice of knowledge sharing will enable learning development in implementing BIM. This will potentially help to avoid the same problems that other organisations have faced, hence speeding up a successful BIM implementation process. However, there seems to be little effort in developing a knowledge sharing framework for BIM implementation. Therefore, this study attempted to expand the literature and to support improvements in construction organisations by developing a framework of intra-organisational knowledge sharing practices for an effective implementation of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in the Malaysian construction industry. This study explored and identified the critical factors of knowledge sharing as the main components of the framework. Since BIM is relatively new within the Malaysian construction industry, a few steps were taken to identify a suitable organisation that has an understanding of BIM and fulfil the research scope. The first step was through a review of implementation cases in publications. The second was by a direct conversation with a gatekeeper who is incharge of monitoring the development of BIM in Malaysia, and thirdly through preliminary interviews with thirteen (13) organisations identified from all the three steps taken. However, only nine (9) responded, and six (6) matched the scope of this study. This study uses multiple-case studies as a research strategy for the primary data collection through semi-structured interviews with nine (9) respondents across six construction organisations that have implemented BIM in Malaysia. Content analysis techniques were used to analyse data from each case study before it was crossanalysed to determine further results. Then, the findings were discussed and theoretically validated to produce a preliminary framework. Consequently, the final framework was presented after the preliminary framework was validated via peer interviews supported with a questionnaire survey. The framework outlines three elements (people, process, and technology), which consist of eight practices and 32 KS components according to their KS ranking in implementing BIM. Each of the practice describes the KS requirement that the organisation needs to develop to allow the success of knowledge sharing in implementing BIM. It highlights the need for organisations to focus their efforts on eight essential practices; Leadership and management support, Team characteristics and organisation, Individual attitudes and personality, Communication and collaboration, Policy, Operational, IT infrastructure and Appropriate tools. The framework could be used to guide the construction organisations to identify the capability of the organisation in determining the requirement of knowledge sharing practices in implementing BIM. This will improve the workflow and speed up the successful implementation process of BIM in Malaysia.
