Abstract:

Has the industry seen the light on project delivery? Numerous signs of improved execution through the downturn in Australia and across the globe suggest oil and gas companies are finally getting it right after a lengthy period of dismal performance. Even before prices went to US$100 per barrel and beyond, the oil and gas industry had a poor track record of delivering major projects. However, higher prices exacerbated the situation, encouraging poor capital discipline and overconfidence in undertaking large-scale, highly complex projects that overstretched the supply chain. The results were delays, cost overruns and billions of dollars in value destroyed. Over the past decade the average project was delivered 6 months late, with costs up 14% compared with the forecast at final investment decision. The top 15 cost blowouts were a cumulative US$80 billion over budget. Much of that was in Australia. But lessons have been learned. Without the safety net of higher prices, the successful execution of capital projects has become of crucial importance to the industry. There is now evidence of post-downturn projects being delivered on time and on budget; in Australasia, recent examples include Greater Western Flank Phase 2 and the Bayu-Undan infill drilling campaign. But do these successes mean execution has really improved? It can be argued these are relatively simple brownfield, subsea developments. When we enter the next investment cycle with bigger projects (Scarborough, Browse and Barossa), will we see the same old mistakes repeated again?

Abstract:

Delivery options have become very diverse with online shoppers demanding faster delivery options (e.g, 2-day delivery, same day delivery options) and more personalized services. For this reason, transportation planners, retailers, and delivery companies are seeking ways to better understand how best to deliver goods and services in urban areas while minimizing disruption to traffic, parking, and building operations. This includes understanding vertical and horizontal goods movements within urban areas. The goal of this project is to capture the delivery processes within urban buildings in order to minimize these disruptions. This is achieved using a systems approach to understanding the flow of activities and workers as they deliver goods within urban buildings. A mobile application was designed to collect the start and stop times for each task within the delivery process for 31 carriers as they deliver goods within a 62-story office building. The process flow map helped identify bottlenecks and areas for improvements in the final segment of the delivery operations. It also highlighted consistent tasks conducted by all carriers as well as differences with given carrier type. This information is useful to help decision-makers plan appropriately for the design of future cities that encompass a variety of delivery processes.

Abstract:

Problems in the delivery of construction are supply chain issues in the procurement area, and not caused by the complexity of the construction industry. In order to prove this, Best Value Procurement has been applied in procuring travel services within pharmaceutical company Boehringer Ingelheim. In this paper the authors propose that there are similarities in the procurement of services at BI and the procurement of construction services. It is proposed that the best value PIPS process makes a procurement officer a professional, able to deliver any service. The BVP PIPS test to deliver travel services increased value and performance and minimized the cost of the service. The conclusion is that the best value PIPS process has great potential to increase the value and performance in the delivery of other services.

Abstract:

Abstract Background Prompt notification of critical laboratory values to providers is essential for effective patient care. To improve the delivery of these critical values, a quality improvement project was initiated to determine the obstacles to prompt notification and to identify possible interventions to improve this process. Methods Critical value call logs were retrieved, and delivery time, patient location, test name, and call time were abstracted and analyzed. All critical values with delivery times greater than 60 min were reviewed by 2 authors for 1 representative month in both the pre- and postintervention period. Results Based on the results of the data review, a modification to the laboratory information system call center color-coded alerts was introduced to address delays attributable to the laboratory. The overall rate of calls greater than 60 min decreased from 3.4% ± 0.8% in the preintervention study period to 1.3 ± 0.3%, postintervention. The average number of values not delivered within 60 min decreased by 64% across all locations, following with an 82% decrease for values originating from inpatient locations, and a 39% decrease for outpatient values. Conclusions Low complexity interventions to critical value callback protocols can significantly increase the efficacy of communication between the laboratory and providers.

Abstract:

Prematurity is one of the main causes of neonatal morbidity and mortality and is responsible for a high percentage of infant sequelae, especially in very early gestation ages. Every year an estimated 15 million children are born preterm and this number continues to increase. Approximately 1 million children die each year as a result of the complications of preterm birth. We decide to perform a descriptive and retrospective study of patients admitted to Ángel Arturo Aballí Maternal-Infant Hospital, during the period from July to December 2015. 102 patients who were admitted in this center with symptoms of threatened preterm birth, single fetus and intact membranes. The birth and medical records of mothers and newborns were reviewed, as well the statistics department. For the processing and analysis, the SPSS statistical program was used and the results were expressed in numbers and percentages. Results showed that the average age of the mothers was between 20-25 years, the gestational age between 30-34 weeks, the most frequent cervical modification was the shortening of the cervix and most of the patients were managed to reach 37 weeks gestation. It was concluded that transvaginal ultrasound increases the sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of preterm delivery and also the shorter of the cervix increase the risk of preterm delivery.

Abstract:

Purpose This study is embedded in social exchange and transaction cost theories. The purpose of this paper is to compare the relative importance of process value and outcome value in building affective and cognitive relationship strength and to compare the relative effects of each type of relationship strength on attitudinal and behavioral loyalty. Design/methodology/approach This empirical study features a quantitative approach. The sample comprises 167 business-to-business (B2B) customers of a large transportation and logistics company in Vietnam. Findings Process value and outcome value have different effects on affective relationship strength. The effect of process value is greater than that of outcome value. In addition, cognitive strength has a stronger impact on both attitudinal and behavioral loyalty than affective strength. Research limitations/implications These insights extend extant literature regarding the process and outcome components of the service assessment. Further studies also should use a cross-industry, cross-country sample to examine the potential moderating effects of country- or industry-specific factors. These findings show B2B managers how to make appropriate resource allocation and investment decisions to enhance relationship strength and resulting customer loyalty. Originality/value To clarify the links among customer value, relationship strength and customer loyalty, this study examines the relative importance of rational and non-rational factors (i.e. process value vs outcome value and affective strength vs cognitive strength) for relationship performance. Unlike most prior research, this study is set in the B2B context of a developing country.

Abstract:

Design-Build is rapidly becoming one of the most commonly used project delivery methods in the facility construction industry. The United States Air Force and the Air Force Reserve Command (AFRC) are expected to establish a target of 75% of all Military Construction (MILCON) projects delivered using the Design-Build method. The use of this delivery method will bring significant changes in the relationships between the various parties associated with facility project delivery when compared to the traditional Design-Bid-Build method. This paper demonstrates that Design-Build delivery with a best value selection is an important tool in accomplishing AFRC’s cost efficient, rapid response transformation goals applicable to facility construction. Three hundred thirty two projects in program years 2002 through 2006, constructed using both traditional Design-Bid-Build or Design-Build delivery methods, were examined. Parameters used for comparisons were construction cost and schedule growth, project cost, vertical versus horizontal construction, and number of days required to prepare solicitation documents, advertise and accomplish construction award. This research reveals significant project schedule advantages with Design-Build best value selection delivery. The advantages are apparent in both pre and post construction award activities. Potential Design-Build cost advantages are hindered by Defense Federal Acquisition Regulations requiring firm fixed price contracts at construction award.

Abstract:

IntroductionMental disorders are a major cause of disability in Europe [1]. However, organizational structures and information systems are focused on delivery of care, rather than providing value [2]. In the digital era, we have the capacity to change priorities through the analysis of heterogeneous databases that could support patients’ and professionals’ decisions.Objectivesto analyse the contradictions between the design and the theoretical structure of mental health services and the possibilities to evaluate the actual value of the delivered care.AimsTo reflect on changing the trend using a different conceptualization of objectives and evaluating methods.MethodsWe used a tool provided to clinicians by the Madrid's Regional Health Service SERMAS (‘ConsultaWeb’) combining primary care, pharmacy and hospital data (n = 395,073 patients for the catchment area), and a set of hospital-based data (patients attended by psychiatrists at the ER, n = 13,877, and patients admitted to the Psychiatric Inpatient unit n = 3318), to explore some of the present professional information resources.ResultsCurrently used healthcare databases only describe the diagnostic or therapeutic categories of patients and might be used to detect abnormal behaviours. However, they are neither able to show the functional status of patients nor designed to predict their clinical course.ConclusionsA clearer definition of value in patient outcomes is needed. This might help to organize the healthcare delivery and to create a new information system that would allow to asses health outcomes.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Abstract:

Contractual motivation is needed to avoid costly project failures and improve the delivery of stakeholder value. Only if the supplier management is made to feel the pain of project failure will it strive to avoid it. The current culture of rewarding failure, by paying for systems development work regardless of the product delivered, must be altered. Such contractual motivation must be supported by quantitative requirements and evolutionary delivery. Quantitative requirements allow project progress and success to be measured enabling monitoring and testing for contractual compliance Evolutionary delivery (that is, delivering early high value in small increments and using feedback from deliverables to determine future increments) allows early reporting of the ability of systems development to deliver and so enables any required corrective actions. Note: This paper specifically addresses the software problem, but the ideas most likely apply to the wider systems engineering problem to some interesting degree as well .

The sustainability and cultural change, including gender, was associated with the delivery of value between generations. The existence of well-established interpretation of the text, which does not allow a new interpretation of the text, which is delivered to religious community make gender values remained relatively unchanged, even continuously reproduced. In this case, the transmitter of religious value, the preachers, seen in the Muslim community as the respectable and credible persons. Therefore, the doctrine they convey tend to be trusted and obeyed, without any possibility of other interpretations. The delivery model of one-direction model of messages delivery with lack of dialogue and participation of the audiences, no chance to new interpretations are another causes that led the concept of gender relatively unchanged

Abstract:

E-government services refer to the emerging area of IS and IT services that are delivered electronically. The way that government agencies design and deliver services and configure and deploy underlying information and communications technologies, is central to the performance of e-government service delivery. This paper examines the effectiveness of website-supported Balanced Scorecards four dimensions (innovation and learning, internal process, veteran value proposition, and financial) in improving e-government service delivery performance. The study used content analysis to analyze the data obtained from a sample of 19 county veteran service officers (CVSOs) to test the hypotheses. CVSOs use websites to serve veterans on a Government-to-Citizen (G2C) basis. The results show that the different aspects of the relations between CVSOs and veterans fit with the four interrelated balanced scorecard factors. The results also show that three of the four website-supported Balanced Scorecard dimensions (learning and innovation, internal process, and veteran value proposition) have a positive impact on e-government service delivery performance. However, the impact of the fourth website-supported Balanced Scorecard perspective (financial) on e-government service delivery performance is different because of the digital divide among the various generations of veterans.

Abstract:

Background: High maternal mortality rate is a major public health concern in developing countries. Skilled birth delivery is central to reducing maternal mortality, yet health facility delivery remains low in Kitui County, Kenya. Our study estimated prevalence of unskilled delivery and identified factors associated with health facility delivery in Kitui County. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted December 2017-February 2018. 245 women from five administrative wards were interviewed. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data. Variables that had p value ≤0.05 in bivariate analysis were included in multivariable regression model to assess for confounders. Variables with a p value of ≤0.05 in multivariate analysis were considered statistically significant at 95% CI. Results: We interviewed 245 (240 analyzed) women from the five wards; the majority were 16-25 years age group (45.5%; 110/240). Mean age was 27±6.6 years. Prevalence of health facility delivery was 50.4%. Distance from a health facility, number of children in a household, occupation of the respondent’s partner, number of antenatal clinic (ANC) visits and means of transport were significant factors for not delivering in a health facility. On multivariate analysis, women who lived >5km from health facility were less likely to deliver in a health facility (AOR =0.36; 95% CI 0.15- 0.86). Women who attended ≥ 4 ANC visits were 4 times more likely to deliver in a health facility (95% CI 2.01-8.79). Conclusions: More than half of the respondents delivered in a health facility. A long distance from the health facility is a hindrance to accessing ANC services. Inadequate ANC visits was associated with home delivery. Improving accessibility of health care services and health education on family planning would increase delivery at a health facility. We recommend Kitui County introduce five satellite clinics/ambulatory services for expectant women to access ANC and maternal services.

Abstract:

The authors study how faster delivery in the online channel affects sales within and across channels in omnichannel retailing. The authors leverage a quasi-experiment involving the opening of a new distribution center by a U.S. apparel retailer, which resulted in unannounced faster deliveries to western U.S. states through its online channel. Using a difference-in-differences approach, the authors show that online store sales increased, on average, by 1.45% per business-day reduction in delivery time, from a baseline of seven business days. The authors also find a positive spillover effect to the retailer’s offline stores. These effects increase gradually in the short-to-medium run as the result of higher order count. The authors identify two main drivers of the observed effect: (1) customer learning through service interactions with the retailer and (2) existing brand presence in terms of online store penetration rate and offline store presence. Customers with less online store experience are more responsive to faster deliveries in the short run, whereas experienced online store customers are more responsive in the long run.

Abstract:

This paper uses the Extreme Value Theory (EVT) to model the rare events that appear as delivery delays in road transport. Transport delivery delays occur stochastically. Therefore, modeling such events should be done using appropriate tools due to the economic consequences of these extreme events. Additionally, we provide the estimates of the extremal index and the return level with the confidence interval to describe the clustering behavior of rare events in deliveries. The Generalized Extreme Value Distribution (GEV) parameters are estimated using the maximum likelihood method and the penalized maximum likelihood method for better small-sample properties. The findings demonstrate the advantages of EVT-based prediction and its readiness for application.

Abstract:

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to outline an unusual – and online-based – approach to sales and negotiation training and coaching. Design/methodology/approach – Interviews with organisations involved, augmented with case studies. Findings – The “Learn, Implement, Support” method of developing sales and negotiating skills is effective. It combats, cost effectively, the criticism that 30 per cent of all learning is forgotten within 30 days of receiving training unless it is reinforced in a practical way. Practical implications – Organisations of all sizes – not just global multinationals – can now increase productivity and profitability from the online delivery of relevant learning materials, followed immediately by virtual coaching and support for a period of at least 12 months. Social implications – People can learn how to sell products and services more effectively and efficiently, via online-delivered learning and coaching, which contains a high degree of video. Originality/value – Organisations of all sizes – not just global multinationals – can now experience and benefit from the knowledge, skills and experience of a master-performer in the fields of sales and negotiation, thanks to the advent of a system of online learning delivery followed by virtual coaching.

Abstract:

In the current health care system, high costs without proportional improvements in quality or outcome have prompted widespread calls for change in how we deliver and pay for care. Value-based health care delivery models have been proposed. Multiple impediments exist to achieving value, including misaligned patient and provider incentives, information asymmetries, convoluted and opaque cost structures, and cultural attitudes toward cancer treatment. Radiation oncology as a specialty has recently become a focus of the value discussion. Escalating costs secondary to rapidly evolving technologies, safety breaches, and variable, nonstandardized structures and processes of delivering care have garnered attention. In response, we present a framework for the value discussion in radiation oncology and identify approaches for attaining value, including economic and structural models, process improvements, outcome measurement, and cost assessment.

Abstract:

Three experiments with rats examined the effects of preexposure to an unconditioned stimulus (US; a single food pellet) on the subsequent ability of that US to effectively signal the delivery of three food pellets during a US-US conditioning procedure. In Experiment 1, latent inhibition (LI) rats showed attenuated conditioning, compared to control (C) rats, when a single food pellet, delivered 10 minutes into a session, was followed by three additional pellets. In preexposure, one pellet had been delivered 10 minutes into each session (in group LI), or placed into the magazine at the beginning of each session (in group C). Experiment 2 showed that this effect was evident when the conditions of preexposure matched those of conditioning for group C, and Experiment 3 showed that the difference between groups LI and C was not a product of context conditioning, or latent inhibition to the noise of the feeder in group LI. Implications of these results for theories of latent inhibition are considered.

Abstract:

The sFlt-1 (soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1), PlGF (placental growth factor), and their ratio are useful for predicting delivery because of preeclampsia in singleton pregnancies. Evidence on the utility of sFlt-1/PlGF ratio in twin pregnancies is lacking. We aimed to evaluate the predictive value of sFlt-1/PlGF ratio for delivery because of preeclampsia in twins. A retrospective data analysis of 164 twin pregnancies with suspected preeclampsia was performed. The sFlt-1/PlGF ratio, which was known to clinicians, was significantly higher in women who delivered within 1 and 2 weeks compared with those who did not (median: 98.9 and 84.2 versus 23.5 pg/mL, respectively; P <0.001). The area under the curve values sFlt-1/PlGF ratio levels were 0.88 (95% CI, 0.83–0.84) and 0.88 (95% CI, 0.83–0.93) for predicting delivery because of preeclampsia within 1 and 2 weeks of blood sampling, respectively. The predictive accuracy of sFlt-1/PlGF was independent of gestational age at sampling and chorionicity ( P >0.100 for interaction). The area under the curve values of sFlt-1/PlGF were significantly higher than for PlGF alone (mean 0.88 and 0.88 versus 0.81 and 0.80) for predicting delivery because of preeclampsia within 1 and 2 weeks of blood sampling ( P =0.055 and 0.001, respectively). sFlt-1/PlGF ratio lower than 38 was able to rule-out delivery within 1 and 2 weeks with a negative predictive value of 98.8% and 96.4% for delivery because of preeclampsia within 1 and 2 weeks, respectively. A cutoff of 38 is applicable for ruling out delivery because of preeclampsia in twin pregnancies.

Abstract:

Light weight as a primary factor in combination with strength and durability properties of aluminium alloys brings financial benefits accruing not only from material procurement but along the whole chain of production, manufacturing, delivery and installation, maintenance and even disposal. A significant contribution in the quest to deliver more value has been the development in the last decade of harmonized design and execution standards, the Eurocodes, National Annexes and adapted codes or recommendations for specific applications. The sustainability issue can be dealt with in a more reliable way due to the comprehensive data tools and comparative analyses available nowadays. Experience with growing numbers of applications also delivers benchmark values for initial cost and maintenance requirements.

Abstract:

Objective: To study the influence of antenatal and perinatal factors on umbilical cord blood thyroid-stimulating hormone (CB TSH) levels. Design: Cross-sectional study. Setting: Private Medical College. Methods: CB TSH levels were measured in 1147 neonates using chemiluminescence immunoassay. The effect of antenatal and perinatal factors on CB TSH values was analyzed statistically. Results: The mean TSH value was 6.811 mIu/mL. A total of 44 neonates (3.83%) had a CB TSH value greater than 20 mIu/mL and had to be recalled for a repeat workup. CB TSH was significantly raised in first-order births, those born via normal vaginal delivery, and in those whom the lower section caesarean section (LSCS) was done for fetal distress (all P value <.05). Male babies had a significantly higher CB TSH value as compared to the females. Babies having Apgar < 7 at 1 min also had a significantly higher CB TSH value. Maternal hypothyroidism did not have any significant effect. On multivariate analysis, we found a positive correlation between birth weight, Apgar, and gestational age with CB TSH values. Conclusion: The incidence of neonates having a CB TSH greater than 20 mIu/mL was 3.83%. Male children, those delivered via normal delivery, those delivered via LSCS where fetal distress was an indication, and those requiring resuscitation, were significant factors affecting CB TSH values.

Abstract:

PurposeDelivery punctuality is essential in supply chain management, yet the cost of untimely delivery is usually assumed to be given or based on intuition and not quantified by facts.Design/methodology/approachThe authors used a data set containing detailed transaction data for a nine-year period on orders and deliveries of sport goods. The methodology is based on applying a polynomial distributed lag model to longitudinal data on supply chain transactions.FindingsThe results indicate that small delivery delays up to two weeks decrease the sales by maximum 10% during a period of 3–4 weeks. Longer delays, up to 45 days, have a larger negative effect on sales, which can also last longer. For this case company, the estimated lost sales due to late deliveries (=5 days) were 5.1% of the delivery value. The longer delays got, the large the cost was: delays at least 45 days long were the most costly causing almost 40% of the estimated lost sales.Practical implicationsThis study offers a methodology for quantifying lost sales due to delivery delays and estimating how long the poor delivery performance affects retailers' order behaviour.Originality/valueThe results give a quantitative decision-making tool for supply chain managers to estimate the profitability of investments in the supply chain performance, especially on improving punctuality.

Abstract:

As the US transitions from volume- to value-based cancer care, many cancer centers and community groups have joined to share resources to deliver measurable, high-quality cancer care and clinical research with the associated high patient satisfaction, provider satisfaction, and practice health at optimal costs that are the hallmarks of value-based care. Multidisciplinary oncology care pathways are essential components of value-based care and their payment metrics. Oncology pathways are evidence-based, standardized but personalizable care plans to guide cancer care. Pathways have been developed and studied for the major medical, surgical, radiation, and supportive oncology disciplines to support decision-making, streamline care, and optimize outcomes. Implementing multidisciplinary oncology pathways can facilitate comprehensive care plans for each cancer patient throughout their cancer journey and across large multisite delivery systems. Outcomes from the delivered pathway-based care can then be evaluated against individual and population benchmarks. The complexity of adoption, implementation, and assessment of multidisciplinary oncology pathways, however, presents many challenges. We review the development and components of value-based cancer care and detail City of Hope’s (COH) academic and community-team-based approaches for implementing multidisciplinary pathways. We also describe supportive components with available results towards enterprise-wide value-based care delivery.
