Abstract:

Management of an engineering consultancy unit in the Eastern Cape Province is concerned about the costs incurred by project managers and specialist engineers pursuing tender opportunities that are not feasible. Annual losses in this unit due to unsuccessful tenders amounts to R2,5 million annually, which equates to about 12% of the revenue generated by the unit. The aim of the research study is to assist the consulting engineering firm by investigating and identifying the key determinants for making the decision of whether to bid on a particular tender opportunity.

Abstract:

The advent of the global financial recession, its impact on the economy with respect to market turbulence and the increase in customer demands have put organisations under intense pressure to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of their operations. By virtue of it not being business as usual in the business arena, organisations are forced to constantly devise strategies that are geared towards growth, transformation and continuous improvement. This cuts across all spheres of organisational structures, which means that every division has a role to play.

Despite the increased availability and affordability, the perception exists that many small businesses are reluctant to adopt technology that might enhance their operations. Besides the opportunities brought about by information systems, this exposes businesses to additional risks and confusions.

A critical reading of these cinematic "apartheid landscapes" provides evidence of the historical context, discourses and values informing their production, as well as the construction and transformation of place and identity in apartheid South Africa.

The result is that many managers - very often without much financial training - have to steer their firm through very turbulent economic times. Apart from being in this state of siege, managers of these commercial printing firms have their problem compounded by the fact that they do not have any industry-specific financi

Abstract:

<p>The use of one form or another of team based work organization (TBWO) management policies and practices by firms with the aim of improving organizational performance and employee morale is well documented in popular literature. Empirical research has however found that the implementation of TBWO management policies and practices such as TB training, TB incentive schemes, participation in decision making, work teams etc. had minimal influence on the performance of firms (Locke and Schweiger, 1979).<br /> This research investigated the factors, which account for the effective implementation o

Aquesta Tesi engloba la fabricació i caracterització de materials sostenibles com poden ser partícules de bismut (Bi), capes de ferrita de bismut (BiFeO3) i aliatges de base Cu amb memòria de forma. S’ha emprat l’electrodeposició per obtenir partícules de Bi micromètriques i submicromètriques a partir d’un electròlit aquós així com també per sintetitzar capes de BiFeO3 a partir d’un bany de dimetilformamida seguit d’un tractament tèrmic en aire. Els aliatges amb memòria de forma de coure-alumini-níquel (Cu–Al–Ni) s’han fabricat mitjançant polvorització catòdica. Per obtenir les capes primes de

En ells, l'efecte fotovoltaic té lloc a la capa activa, la qual es troba formada per al menys dos materials semiconductors orgànics amb caràcter electrònic diferenciat: el donador o material transportador de buits, i l'acceptor o material transportador d'electrons, els quals apareixen barrejats formant una heterounió distribuïda en volum. Certs paràmetres d'aquests dispositius com la raó de la barreja donador-acceptor i el gruix de la capa activa s'han d'ajustar per maximitzar l'eficièn

S’han dipositat capes primes d’hidrogel per tal de modificar les propietats superficials i millorar el comportament dels biomaterials. Dues de les tècniques de deposició química en fase vapor més comunes s’han estudiat per poder dur a terme aquestes modificacions. La deposició química foto-iniciada en fase vapor (piCVD) és un mètode simple, ràpid i no agressiu que permet depositari films d’hidrogel. És un mètode que s’inicia a la superfície de la mostra i que permet recobrir de manera homogènia superfícies tridimensionals com és el cas de les micro-partícules. El piCVD ofereix un ventall molt

First of all, I revisit the history of Hong Kong comedy and start to bring up the significance of Chow’s films and performing style. I argue that Chow tries to convey the ideas which respond to the social events in different periods of his films. I suggest that he deals with the issue of the 1997 handover in Hong Kong in his films. In addition, though being the hero in his films, Chow paradoxically subverts th

(2008) report empirical evidence that firms manage earnings pwards to meet dividend thresholds. Li and Lie (2006) find that managers consider investor demand for dividend when they make dividend policy. As a result, managers cater to investor demand for dividends by paying dividends when investors place a premium on dividend-paying stocks, and vice versa.

Abstract:

Job Evaluation is the process of determining, as systematically and objectively as possible, the worth of one job relative to another without regard for personalities or existing structures. (Paterson, 1975) The purpose is to achieve and maintain an equitable distribution of basic wages and/or salaries according to level of position. The establishment of internal equity with a graded hierarchy of jobs within the organisation and of external equity with the external market rate for equivalent jobs (Paterson, 1975) is important and has lead to the overall analysis of the following problem statem

Cloud accounting software (CAS) emerged as part of the overall development of cloud computing. The cloud, as it is referred to, has heralded a new age in information technology and offers new and unique opportunities and challenges for organisations of all sizes. The aim of this study was to determine the awareness and perception of cloud computing technology by accounting firms in Cape Town. The findings of the survey reveal that significant awareness exists of CAS by firm managers and accountants. In some respects there are significant differences between small and medium-large firms regard
