AN EVALUATION OF DISTRIBUTION CHANNEL IN THE LOGISTICS MANAGEMENT OF PETROLEUM PRODUCTS (A CASE STUDY OF OANDO PLC ENUGU)

ABSTRACT This research was motivated to appraise the evaluation of distribution channel in the logistics management of petroleum product using Oando plc as the case study.  There was a problem of the tendency of distribution of those petroleum products to the Northern & Southern which effect to a scarcity of the product in other areas of the country.  On the contrary to the problems of this research work, an objective came to be as to ascertain whether there is an effective and efficient di...

Exploring ‘Creating Shared Value’ Strategies as it Relates to Operational Challenges & Digital Capabilities of the Oilfield Service Industry in Sub Sahara Africa-A Case Study of Schlumberger

By exploring the rationality of ‘Creating Shared Value’ (CSV) concept in the oilfield service industry in Sub Saharan Africa, the research focused on exploring unique challenges and the underlying factors that affect operations in the oilfield service (OFS) companies in SSA using Schlumberger as a case study. With a theory developed from the inputs of interviewed participants, the research analysed ways ‘CSV’ strategies could be used to address these opportunities using the digital ca...

Perinatal Factors Associated With Birth Asphyxia Among Neonates In Maternity Ward Kakamega County Refferal Hospital, Kenya

ABSTRACT Despite the important advances in perinatal care in the past decades, asphyxia remains a severe condition leading to significant mortality and morbidity. Perinatal asphyxia has an incidence of 1 to 6 per 1,000 live full-term births, and represents the third most common cause of neonatal death (23%) after preterm birth (28%) and severe infections (26%). Each year approximately 24% of neonatal deaths occur due to birth asphyxia with an equal number of survivors with serious neurologica...

Online Buying Behavior Among Maasai Mara University Students Using Logistic Regression Model

ABSRACT Primarily, the project has focused on finding out the Online Buying trends and behavior of Maasai Mara university consumers with an age range of 18- 25 years. The proposed primary objective of the study was further divided into secondary objectives with an aiming of finding detailed information on the research topic. Precisely, information regarding buyer’s buying frequency, average spending, and famous product purchase was gathered. Since the objectives were quantifiable, a quantit...

Group Acceptance Sampling Plans for Lifetimes Following an Odds Exponential Log Logistic Distribution

ABSTRACT A group acceptance sampling plan is developed for odds exponential log logistic distribution (OELLD) based on truncated lifetime with a known shape parameter. At a specified level of consumer risk and at the predefined test termination time, we derived the minimum number of groups required for a given group size and the acceptance number using the two-point approach by satisfying the producer’s and the consumer’s risks at the specified quality levels, while the termination time a...

Managing the Maintenance of Rural Water Supply Facilities in the Builsa District

ABSTRACT In Ghana, the issue of managing the maintenance of water supply facilities still remains a big problem in rural water provision. One of the recurring issues in rural water supply is how to ensure sustainability of water supply facilities. The main objective of this study therefore, was to examine the maintenance structures as they exist for the effective management of water supply facilities in the Builsa District. The research was a non-interventional study, and using simple random...

A New Acceptance Sampling Plans Based on Percentiles for Odds Exponential Log Logistic Distribution

Abstract: In this paper, acceptance sampling plans are developed for the odds exponential log logistic distribution (OELLD) introduced by Rosaiah et al. [1] based on lifetime percentiles when the life test is truncated at a predetermined time. The minimum sample size necessary to ensure the specified lifetime percentile is obtained under a given customer’s risk. The operating characteristic values of the sampling plans as well as the producer’s risk are presented. One example with real d...

AN EXAMINATION OF THE ATTITUDES OF TRADERS TOWARDS ENVIRONMENTAL SANITATION AT THE HOHOE MARKET IN THE VOLTA REGION

ABSTRACT Attitude as a component of human behavior is the pre-requisite for any action, and plays a dominant role in environmental sanitation. Unsustainable urbanization in Ghana has encouraged the increase in economic activities in various markets in urban settlements resulting in negative behaviors of people towards environmental sanitation in these markets. This study examines the attitudes of traders towards environmental sanitation at the Hohoe main market. It describes the general ...

New Acceptance Sampling Plans Based on Percentiles for Type-II Generalized Log Logistic Distribution

Abstract This article describes the development of an acceptance sampling plan based on percentiles for Type-II generalized log-logistic distribution (TGLLD) introduced by Rosaiah et. al. [1]. The plan is developed by considering the lifetime percentiles as a variable and the life test will be terminated at a pre-specified time. The objective of the test is to determine the minimum sample size required to achieve a specific lifetime percentile at an acceptable level of consumer and producer r...

On the generation of new generalized families of distributions with applications

Abstract: In this thesis, new generalized families of distributions namely, Weibull Odd Burr III-G (WOBIII-G), Ristic-Balakhrishnan Odd Burr III-G (RBOBIII-G), Risti ´ c-´ Balakhrishnan Marshall-Olkin-G (RBMO-G), Exponentiated Half-Logistc Odd Burr III-G (EHL-OBIII-G) and Half-Logistic Odd Power Generalized Weibull-G (HLOPGW G) families of distributions are developed and studied in detail. Furthermore, the mathematical and statistical properties of these new families of distributions such ...

Evaluation and assessment of relocation from a city to the outskirts: Case study DHL Gävle Sweden

Abstract The ‘City Logistics’ activities are contributing to traffic congestion and accumulating to environmental challenges, such situation has prompted the creation of urban consolidation centre (UCC), as a multimodal logistics park facility in the outskirts. The relocation of business from city to the outskirts requires the evaluation and assessment of the key factors in order to make the better decisions. However, no relocation decisions evaluation model has been found, neither its ap...

Assessment of Implementation of Tuberclosis Infection Control Measures Among Healthcare Workers at the Greater Accra Region Hospital

ABSTRACT  Background: Tuberculosis has become a global burden and of public health importance. Health care workers in developing countries are highly susceptible to workplace associated TB infection due to the long hours spent with patients who have undiagnosed or untreated TB cases, poor infection control measures and poor isolation of TB cases in health care facilities. Objective: To assess the implementation of tuberculosis infection control measures among health care workers at the Great...
