FACTORS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO THE INEFFICIENCY
OF SPACE USE AT THE PUBLIC TRAINING INSTITUTES:
A CASE STUDY

ABSTRACT

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to identify the factors influencing
use of spaces in public training institutes (PTIs). Most of the PTI buildings
are motivated by social welfare or to provide services to the public as it is
one of a government's responsibilities rather than a profit-making entity.
Due to several incidents involving PTI building management weaknesses
over the past few years, the government has taken a serious view on the
space management for PTI buildings which are not only related to property
management but also on space management efficiency.

Design/Methodology/Approach – the author conduct literature reviews
from a variety of text sources in relation to the factors influencing inefficient
use of space. Afterwards, a qualitative content analysis has been
conducted to determine the factors that contribute to the inefficient use of
space.

Findings – The results show that there are eight factors that influence the
use of space in which five of them are factors that greatly influence the
use of that space. These five factors are user requirement factor,
organization factor, work environmental factor, spaces factor and
technology development factor.

Research Limitations/Implications – Due to the application of
Movement Control Order (MCO), the author was unable to conduct the
field survey and only depends on the secondary data sources.

Originality/Value – The findings have confirmed that the user requirement
factor, which is still a key factor in INSPEN, will be the discovery that will
help INSPEN overcome more efficient use of space in the future.
