Description
An account of the resource
Micro Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are considered the most enterprises that create jobs in the country when running consistently and very well leading to the achievement of high Gross Domestic Product (GDP) reflecting in the macro economy. However, this inheritance and dreams of MSMEs are not realized due to some endogenous (internal) metrics or factors. The study seeks to investigate the underlying internal factors leading to failure of selected MSMEs in Mallam in Greater Accra Region of Ghana. However, the entire population targeted for this research was 85 while 70 respondents were randomly drawn out of the total population. The 70 selected respondents assisted in proper flow of information required for the success of the research.The research has employed descriptive research design since it portrays accurate responses from owners that are targeted, MSMEs’ managers in the targeted …

An account of the resource
In this paper, the authors examined consumers’ intention to adopt and use mobile payment methods in
Ghana. Data for the study was obtained from a sample of 260 respondents through online and direct
survey using structured questionnaire. Structural equation modeling was used to analyse the data
through SPSS v.22 and SmartPLS v.3. Findings with regards to the determinants of mobile payment
system adoption indicate that perceived security, attitude, and perceived usefulness play active roles
in consumer decisions to adopt mobile payment methods in Ghana. Also, perceived usefulness and
perceived ease of use have a significant and positive influence on consumer’s attitude towards mobile
payment adoption. Further, subjective norm was found to influence perceived usefulness and perceived
ease of use of mobile payment adoption in Ghana. The study contributes to the literature on mobile

Description
An account of the resource
Universities in Africa are witnessing unprecedented growth; The government is establishing more
universities, and private institutions are also coming on board to meet the growing demands for
university places. As well as the increasing numbers of universities in Africa, there are also
international partnerships with universities in Europe and America, while some other universities
are opening campuses in Africa. Due to this increase, prospective university students have an
increasingly wide range of choices. Understanding this student choice is essential for the marketing
strategies of the universities. This process has been extensively researched in literature. This
plethora of knowledge, however, has focused on developed countries, leaving a gap in our
knowledge about student choices in Africa. This chapter introduces the coverage and contents of
the edited book which explores student choices in Africa. This book on Higher Education
Marketing in Africa - Explorations on Student Choice focuses on different factors that influence
the choice of prospective students in Africa to study at a particular university. The authors have
covered different geographies on the continent and employed different methodological approaches
to reach their study conclusions. The authors’ affiliations are also international in scope. The
collection reflects the diversity and breadth of current research within this stimulating and evolving
research area.

Exploring Key Factors Affecting Timely Project Completion in the Road Construction Industry: (A Case Study Of The Ghana Highway Authority)

Description
An account of the resource
Project delay or untimely project completion is among the very critical or key challenges encountered during the course of any project implementation, being it building project, sewerage project or road project etc. Construction project delay is a global phenomenon in project delivery and has an impact on the otherwise success or failure of any project. In an attempt to tackle this problem, several authors have attempted by undertaking researches but have all yielded little or no significant solutions to the problem both locally and internationally. The issue of delay on construction project has frustrated development process in many nations, has had an immeasurable cost implication to government and the society as a whole, and also had led to loss of reputation of the contracting parties in the project execution. The purpose or objective of this study was to explore the key causes of construction project delays in the road sector of Ghana’s construction industry. The study went further to identify some of the key or important effects of construction delays on the project itself, the stakeholders and society as a whole and how the causes of delays on projects can be solved. In achieving the aim of the study, data were collected from a sample chosen from the Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Road and Highways, Ghana Highway Authority, Road Construction Firms and Consultants who are major stakeholders or players
of the road construction industry in Ghana. The study adopted a quantitative method of data analysis with a structured questionnaire made up of closed ended questions for data
collection. Respondents for the data collection were selected by the quota sampling technique. Out of eighty one (81) questionnaires distributed, Sixty (60) were retrieved from
respondents representing seventy four percent (74%) responsive rate. In determining the most important causes of delay in road construction projects, thirty (30) factors each was identified for study for objectives 1, 2 and 3, after which questionnaires
were administered and analysis done on the data gathered from questionnaire. For objective 4 to be met, two (2) different groups of factors were identified, the first group involved fifteen
(15) factors to assess the impact or effects of delays on projects while the second group involved twenty one (21) set of factors to examine the most viable solutions to the factors
causing delay on projects. The following are key causes of delay on road construction projects; Delays in honouring Payment Certificates for work done, client’s inadequate financial resources planning, inadequate feasibility studies on the project, underestimation of the project duration, underestimation of the cost of the project, lack of the required key technical staff by the
contractor, lack of the required equipment by the contractor, severe or bad weather encountered during construction and unfavourable site condition. Some of the key impact or effect of delay are as follows; cost overruns, time overruns, abandonment or termination of contract, stagnation in cash-flow to contractor and no value for- money achieved.
The solution identified for solving delays on road construction projects are as follows; Client should do proper budgeting with a financial plan to enable payment upon submission of payment certificates, initial proper planning of the works must be done to avoid delays, decision making by the client should be prompt, accurate estimation of the project duration at planning stage, contractors’ financial standing should be properly verified before being awarded a contractor.
