Title A name given to the resource Assessing the Effects of Total Quality Management in Biomedical Engineering Services: A Case Study of Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Cynthia Fremah Gyakye Description An account of the resource The quest for providing quality services and quality biomedical devices in our hospital to ensure effective but efficient patients expectation cannot be overemphasized within the space of increasing competition and frequent lawsuits of patients on quality healthcare. The main purpose of the study was to assess the effects of total quality on the project operational effort of biomedical engineering services at Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital, Ghana’s premier teaching hospital with the aim of adding value to healthcare service delivery. Research methodology deployed was descriptive statistics for which Kruskal-Wallis a non-parametric group analysis was used to obtain the p-values and the median marks that compared means score from each group based on the cut-of-point of 4.00. It was found from the study that total quality management concept is less understood and practiced among biomedical engineering unit of Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital (KBTH). It was further found that challenges such as lack of top management support, poor definition of quality as process improvement practice, lack of collaboration and teamwork in Biomedical Engineering Unit, lack of training or practice of Total Quality Management, changing organizational need & culture towards quality improvement practices, less employees empowerment to undertake quality initiatives, less employees empowerment to undertake quality initiatives, among others were identify from the study. However, it was found that these challenges impact on healthcare delivery and affect Biomedical Engineering Services at KBTH as it increases cost of operations, increased system, and technology failure negatively; standard specifications procedures are followed, and improves organizational culture towards quality whiles contributing to continuous process improvement at KBTH improves biomedical engineering service positively. To improve performance, the following suggestions are made to be incorporated into management decision in improving healthcare delivery at KBTH. That there should be leadership, management commitment and resources support, communication to total quality policy, definition with management’s employees empowerment through training and education, changing organizational culture towards quality, improve internal customer satisfaction and implementing quality management systems among others.

Title A name given to the resource Assessing the Environmental Impacts due to oil spillage resulting from Oil and Gas products Transportation: A case study of Chase Petroleum g Ghana Limited Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Diakite Mody Seydou Description An account of the resource Oil spillage is a global worry which is associated with any oil and gas activities mainly during oil and gas products transportations. It is undoubtedly the most responsible for marine and terrestrial organisms acute killing causing biodiversity loss and desertification, human health threatening by several ways which can lead to mortality, loss of job increasing poverty and starvation and displacement; in short it is human’s nightmare. These can no longer continue otherwise the earth will be rendered unlivable for all living things and announced the end for human. In this research, the researcher used both quantitative and qualitative approaches to collect data. Its primary data were gathered from Chase Petroleum Ghana Limited which is one of the largest Ghanaian bulk distribution oil companies while its secondary data were collected from peer reviews, journal and internet. The findings showed that on all environmental issues exposed a mean of 29 respondents representing (71.7%) had admitted oil spillage to have extreme concern in all cases, a mean of six 6 accounting (14.4%) expressed that oil spillage played moderate concern in all cases, and a mean of five 5 weighting (13.9%) attributed that oil spillage produced low concern in all cases. For mitigating such impacts and avoiding similar fail in Ghana mining sector, the research findings demonstrated that the implementation and enforcement of health, safety and environment (HSE) practices have been effective in Chase Petroleum Ghana Limited, but these practices alone are not able to ensure safety during oil and gas products transportation. Therefore, finding showed that they had to be complemented by the following strategies for an effective regulation in order laws enforcement, binding national environmental laws concerning oil and gas transportation to international environmental laws, establishment of national legislations addressing only oil and gas industry, and implementation of Environmental Management System (EMS).

Title A name given to the resource Assessing the Ict Audit Practices in Ghanaian Private Sector Companies; A Case Study of Kpmg-Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Theophilus Nii Armah Description An account of the resource Efficiency and productivity in audit assurance has compelled auditors to apply tools of information technology and systems to facilitate work in both private and public institutions. These computer-based platforms assist both internal and external auditors to minimize errors, fraud and omissions to ensure accountability, transparency and value for money in corporate organizations. Although several businesses and organizations incur huge cost to deploy information and communication technology infrastructure, the purpose and value for acquisition is often not realized in the presence of technological advancement due to some determinants. This study was conducted mainly to focus on ICT audit and its necessitation. It also took into consideration the experiences, advantages and disadvantages or setbacks if any and why other organizations must integrate it into their systems. The study was undertaken considering Ghanaian private sectors with the main focus being on Klynveld, Peat, Marwick and Goerdeler (KPMG) auditing company. Its significance is to enhance system security and minimize vulnerabilities on infrastructure deployments and processes and to offer a guideline that is aimed at aiding companies in terms of policy enforcement. It can also help expatiate the possibility and importance of retaining company’s internal auditors and realign their mandate since most tasks and mandate has been provisioned to be handled by all enterprise systems. The study employed the use of mixed method thus the use of both qualitative and quantitative methods. Qualitative part of the study employed the use of semi structured meetings, face to face interviews, telephone interviews and secondary data obtained from the literature. The quantitative methods involved mainly the use surveys in the form of questionnaires. The data was obtained from a sample size of 20 staffs which were up of two (2) Leadership and Management Personnel, three (3) Heads of Department, six (6) Technical team staffs and nine (9) junior staff on ICT audit.

Title A name given to the resource ASSESSING THE IMPACT OF ENVIRONMENTAL ACCOUNTING DISCLOSURE ON CORPORATE PERFORMANCE IN CHINA. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Andrew Agyemang, Kong Yusheng, Maxwell Kongkuah, Alhassan Musah, Mohammed Musah Description An account of the resource The Chinese government has recently adopted green accounting as part of its national sustainable development plan, which highlights the importance of standardizing corporate environmental accounting. However, there is a lack of research on the impact of environmental accounting information disclosure (EAID) on firm performance in a specific industry in China. This study aims to fill this gap by exploring the relationship between EAID and firm performance using a sample of 34 listed mining companies and secondary data from 2000 to 2018. The study identifies 12 variables to measure firm performance and uses Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to reduce them to four factors. The Generalized Methods of Moments (GMM) regression analysis is then employed to analyze the data. The results show that there is a positive relationship between EAID and return on equity and quick ratio, while return on assets (ROA) has a positive but insignificant link with EAID. These findings are significant in the literature on environmental disclosures and performance from an industry perspective.

Title A name given to the resource Assessing The Impact of Information Security Awareness on Organization’s Operations towards Mitigating Vulnerabilities in Federal College of Education (Technical), Gusau-Nigeria A Case Study of Federal Colege Of Education [Technical] Gusau Zamfara State Nigeria Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Lawali Yau Description An account of the resource Information Security is a process of protecting the Confidentiality, Availability and Integrity of the information and information resources against unauthorized user. Educational institutions become increasingly dependent on information systems for strategic planning and operations, preservations and access. But due to the openness nature of educational institution the information asset and resources of the educational institution becomes the prime target of cyber attackers. Most institutions and organizations provide technology-based solution to the security vulnerabilities within their domain. But according to the literature, success in the information security could only be achieved when organizations invest both on technical and socio-organizational solutions. The technical aspect addresses the technology-based solutions, while the socio-organizational resources address the employee compliance with security policies and management. This research project investigates the socio-organizational resources in the tertiary institutions in North-West Nigeria. The research specifically investigates the influence of employee awareness towards providing security measures in the institutions. The research adopted the TAM principle to address whether awareness of information security policy, management, and breaches influence employee attitude towards mitigating security vulnerabilities in the institutions. The result indicated that, there is a high significant influence of ISPA, ISMA, and ISBA on employee attitudes towards providing security measures in the institution. The result also indicated that, 60-80 percent of the respondents intend to be applying security measures to mitigate security vulnerabilities in the institutions.

Title A name given to the resource Assessing the Impact of Social Engineering Risk on Information in Public Tertiary Institutions in Ghana: A Case Study of Some Selected Technical Universities Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Kwadwo Kyeremeh Description An account of the resource Social Engineering is the art of human hacking that made their targets do things that in their real senses will not do. The human factor is social is so huge that they normally use and insider to commit their malicious acts and they offers assailants a huge number of conceivable outcomes to reach through focused control and data to their coveted objective. An especially unsafe circumstance when the data of one individual is utilized to get to the computer systems of an organization. The abuser is effectively passed for a systems administrator or an IT director or network designer. Frequently the culprit is not even in coordinate contact with the casualty. Indeed, even the most traditionalist in the administration of sensitive data, individuals can fall into the trap of social designing. From one perspective, the "mechanical disregard" makes individuals helpless when they treat their sensitive information recklessly and distribute private data anyhow and is once in a while excessively sluggish, making it impossible to "tidy up" their online profile frequently. Then again, we as a whole are just human creatures continuously looking for acknowledgment, sweet talk, compliments, fellowship and so forth. Human temperance’s as accommodation and shortcomings as vanity are abused by social engineers to control their casualties. The greater part of the representatives of an organization trust that the most vital thing is to be a decent partner and solidarity with associates; which is regularly to the detriment of security in the long run. This examination depicts the effect of social engineering risk on information in the public tertiary institutions in Ghana. The investigation additionally talks about the findings and recommendations which can be utilized by the institutions to impede the risk of data spillage through social engineering.

Title A name given to the resource Assessing the Impact of Stakeholder Management on Project Implementation in the Telecommunication Industry: A Case Study of Eaton Towers Ghana Limited. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Tuwor Joseph Nartey Description An account of the resource The management of stakeholders in the telecommunication industry has not received much attention in Ghana. The purpose of the study was therefore to explore stakeholder management and its impact on telecommunication mast construction projects in Eaton Towers Company. A sample size of 80 comprising of both internal and external stakeholders of the Eaton Towers Company, was used for the study. The quantitative survey was the most appropriate study design as the researcher gathered varied opinions on the subject matter through the administration of questionnaires. Per the findings of the study, the three most influential internal stakeholders of the project included project management team, top management, and procurement team. Similarly, the most influential external stakeholders included customers, contractors, and government agencies. While the study revealed that stakeholder analysis, stakeholder engagement, stakeholder mapping, communication and reporting plan and stakeholder interest matrix were the internal management strategies used in managing internal stakeholders, stakeholder analysis, stakeholder engagement, stakeholder mapping and communication were the dominant strategies used in the management external stakeholders. Per the results, lack of acceptance of the project and support from relevant parties, ineffective stakeholder identification, and analysis, inadequate stakeholder engagement, poor management of stakeholders, relevant stakeholders were not carried along at the initial stages and finance were the crucial challenges faced in the management of internal stakeholders. On the other hand, key challenges in the management of external stakeholders identified were government agencies prolong bureaucratic processes in the approval and issuance of building permits, contractors not complying to project schedule, supplying of out-of-specification materials and inefficient work procedure. The study, therefore, recommended that internal and external stakeholders have to be involved in programs that would build good and healthy working relationship that drives cooperation towards common goals in achieving successful project implementation.

Previous studies have not really tied total quality management in the aspects of SERVQUAL as the major influence on customer satisfaction in the Ghanaian telecommunication sector, thus the need for this research. As customer satisfaction continues to rise, telecommunication customers expect service quality to improve to meet their satisfaction. The quality of service determines the customer satisfaction level in a service industry, such as telecom. Effective total quality management would result in better service quality. SERVQUAL is arguably the model to assess the effectiveness of customer satisfaction in the service industry. The aim of this study is to assess the influence of total quality management on customer satisfaction in the telecom industry from a TQM–SERVQUAL perspective. The study relied on questionnaires to gather data about the TQM services on customer satisfaction. A self-completion questionnaire was administered to customers and employees of MTN Ghana and Vodafone Ghana. Both companies operate with the same procedures and equipment, hence the need to use the same apparatus for all contacted customers and employees.
