SIEMES DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION CASE STUDY TOWARDS ORGANIZATIONAL SCALE AND SUCCESS IN ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING INDUSTRY”

This study investigates a range of scaling strategies for electrical engineering firms, with a focus on various crucial aspects such as internal innovation, strategic regional expansion, geographical proximity, and collaborative partnerships. Internal innovation is highlighted as a key driver of growth, as it allows firms to develop new technologies and processes that can differentiate them from competitors. Strategic regional expansion is discussed as a means to tap into new markets and leverage local opportunities, while geographical proximity is examined for its impact on operational efficiency and customer relationships. Collaborative partnerships are also emphasized for their role in enhancing capabilities and driving mutual benefits. The case study of Siemens AG serves as a prominent example, showcasing how digital technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and cloud computing have significantly transformed their approach to scaling. Siemens AG's experience underscores how these technologies can support internal innovation, streamline regional expansion efforts, overcome geographical barriers, and foster effective collaborations. The article proposes a detailed framework in which digital transformation is central to driving these strategies. It argues that digital technologies are not just enablers but essential components that fuel innovation across various domains. Additionally, digital transformation is posited as a critical factor in facilitating smoother and more effective expansion into new regions, bridging geographical gaps that can otherwise impede growth, and enhancing collaborative efforts both within and outside the organization. By integrating these elements, businesses can achieve sustainable growth and maintain a competitive edge in an ever-evolving and challenging market landscape.is considered near the evaluation of efficiency of management an enterprise.

Willingness to pay for broadband: A case study of Wisconsin

As broadband expansion efforts in the U.S. continue with historic investments, consumer demand for residential broadband services is of first-order importance. Several past broadband willingness to pay studies estimate the value of broadband to be low, compared to the current national average cost of internet subscriptions being around $65 per month. Additional estimates of household's willingness to pay for broadband are needed to provide more insight into how much households value these services and what type of support would be most efficient in increasing broadband adoption to close the digital divide. These estimates are helpful for policymakers, internet service providers, and community leaders working on broadband subsidy programs, trying to bring ISPs to communities, and setting service prices. Using choice experiment data from a 2022 broadband survey in Wisconsin, I find households are willing to pay $45-$334 per month to go from not having internet at home to having speeds between 25 Mbps and 1,000 Mbps and are willing to pay $10-$38 for greater reliability, depending on household income level. While consumers are willing to pay more for speed than reliability, the value consumers place on speed is diminishing. Connection is valuable to people, but getting connected at a much faster speed is not seen as worth a lot more. These estimates suggest households place a high value on home internet and are willing to pay at least, if not more, than prices already available on the market in many places.

Shoprite Holdings Ltd Case Study: Shoprite Holdings Ltd Case Study

This study investigates the obstacles faced by the African expansion efforts of Shoprite Holdings Ltd., a South African retailer. Shoprite pursued mergers and acquisitions within its native country but established wholly owned subsidiaries as its preferred entry route for expanding into other African states. As a result, Shoprite significantly increased its operations by expanding to 16 nations by 2020. However, Shoprite currently focuses its operation in ten countries, exclusively in southern African countries and its home country. This study seeks to comprehend the reasons behind Shoprite's rapid withdrawal from multiple African countries and shed insight into the challenges of conducting business in Africa's demanding business climate. The analysis revealed a combination of economic variables, such as reduced purchasing power of customers, currency volatility, increased operational costs, and the economic shocks caused by the COVID-19 outbreak. Additionally, high customer preference for informal markets and social factors were also identified. The findings indicate that Shoprite should prioritize strategic location selection, adopt a lower entry mode, and consider the potential for developing e-commerce as feasible measures. The report proposes that African retail businesses should comprehend the intricacies of the African market and employ strategies for international expansion, entrance techniques, and the significance of adjusting operations to local conditions and regulatory environments. These discussions offer insights to organizations considering international expansion, seeking to mitigate risks, and aiming to optimize their market entry strategy in various locations, specifically Africa.

Mapping Health Disparities: Spatial Accessibility to Healthcare Facilities in a Rural District of Ghana Using Geographic Information Systems Techniques

<i>Background:</i> Access to healthcare is crucial for health equity and outcomes, especially in resource-limited rural areas. Despite expansion efforts, access disparities persist, impacting rural well-being. Assessing spatial accessibility to primary and secondary healthcare is essential for identifying underserved areas and guiding effective resource allocation and intervention strategies. <i>Objective:</i> This study aims to evaluate the geographic access to healthcare services in a rural district of Ghana using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and spatial analysis techniques. <i>Methods:</i> Utilizing Geographic Information Systems (GIS) 3.28.6, spatial data including health facility locations, settlements, road networks, and population data were analysed. Buffer and distance to the nearest hub analyses were conducted to assess healthcare accessibility to all ten (10) healthcare facilities in the district. Travel time analysis was performed using specified travel speeds for various modes of transportation. Chi-square tests were employed to evaluate the associations between settlement characteristics and access to primary and secondary healthcare services. <i>Results:</i> Approximately 40% of the health facilities were located in Akumadan, the district capital. Primary healthcare accessibility within a 3km radius covered 35% of settlements and 59% of the population, while secondary healthcare, within a 5km radius, was accessible to only 11.3% of settlements and 27.2% of the population. The mean distance to health centres was 4.35±2.72 km and to hospitals was 10.35±5.77 km. Mean walking times were 87±54.6 minutes to health centres and 209.2±117.0 minutes to hospitals. By motorized transport, travel times were up to 24 minutes to health centres and 55 minutes to hospitals; by bicycle, up to 37 minutes to health centres and 190 minutes to hospitals. Chi-Square Tests revealed significant associations between settlement type and both primary (χ²(1, N=80) = 30.77, p <.001) and secondary (χ²(1, N=80) = 15.93, p <.001) healthcare access, as well as between population level and healthcare access. Proximity to health facilities (primary χ²(1, N=80) = 21.26, p <.001; secondary χ²(1, N=80) = 5.48, p =.019) and transportation accessibility (primary χ²(1, N=80) = 9.13, p =.003; secondary χ²(1, N=80) = 12.13, p <.001) were significantly associated with healthcare access. <i>Conclusion:</i> This study unveils substantial disparities in healthcare accessibility, characterized by uneven distribution of facilities and remote distances. Challenges include limited infrastructure and geographic isolation. Addressing these requires enhanced infrastructure, transport networks, expanding outreach services, and equitable policy reforms to promote health equity.

Recovery resources for college students: Leveraging web scraping to unveil current estimates.

Growing recognition of the importance of addressing substance use among emerging adults has led to a rapid expansion of recovery services on college campuses. However, existing estimates on collegiate recovery programs or communities (CRPs/Cs) and other services are outdated or lack rigor, leaving the extent of these resources unclear. This study aimed to fill this gap in our understanding by providing current estimates of recovery-related resources. Utilizing the Python web scraping library BeautifulSoup, we gathered a large sample of ".edu"-hosted webpages (N = 995) with references to recovery services (e.g., "collegiate recovery", "peer support"). Eligible webpages (n = 552) were screened by a team of 11 reviewers to extract information on these services. During extraction, we identified 270 institutions that advertised on-campus recovery services for students. Of these institutions, 176 advertised formal CRPs/Cs. A majority of CRPs/Cs (n = 164) advertised mutual aid meetings and sober/drug-free social activities (n = 138), while only 83 advertised drop-in centers. Relatively few historically Black colleges or universities (n = 5), Hispanic-serving institutions (n = 21), or native-serving institutions (n = 0) hosted recovery services. On-campus services to support recovery have greatly expanded since previous estimates, but gaps may exist in the services provided by these programs. By providing an updated estimate and examining service uniformity, this study can aid in future expansion and standardization efforts to support students in recovery.

Digital marketing ecosystems and global market expansion: current state and future research agenda

PurposeThis article aims to provide greater clarity regarding the conceptualization and critical role of digital marketing ecosystems for the global expansion of multinational enterprises (MNEs) and offer novel research directions to prompt future research.Design/methodology/approachThe authors first review the marketing literature related to marketing ecosystems, highlighting the evolution of this body of work across a range of domains such as services, innovation and new product development, communications and marketing strategy more broadly. Next, two case examples of MNEs whose global expansion efforts have been supported by their marketing ecosystems are used to highlight the role of marketing ecosystems in global market expansion. Finally, novel research directions are offered to prompt future research and provide greater insight into this emerging area.FindingsThe case examples we examine yield important insights into the role of marketing ecosystems for MNEs expanding from emerging markets (EMs) to developed markets (DMs). EM-MNEs such as TEMU face more communication and payment ecosystem challenges while opening their supply chain to DMs. Contrary to EM-MNEs, DM-MNEs face institutional and sociocultural challenges that require different marketing ecosystem orchestration approaches.Originality/valueMarketing ecosystems can provide MNEs with greater multinational flexibility, enabling them to adapt their global strategies to navigate increasing complexities in global markets, such as trends toward increased protectionism and geopolitical disruptions. However, there is surprisingly little research addressing this issue.

Unpacking unfair transaction experiences, competition, and imports in technology-intensive SMEs' FDI

In this study we examine how unfair transaction experiences with domestic partners might affect international expansion efforts, as moderated by industry competition and importing network. With survey data from the Annual Survey of Korea Venture Firms (2014–2018), we identify an explanatory role of unfair transaction experiences, together with moderating roles of industry competition and importing network, on FDI, such that small and medium-sized firms that suffer unfair transaction experiences in their home country are more likely to internationalize. Importing network can catalyze this outward investment, whereas industry competition tends to discourage such international expansion, because the firms need to focus on defending their positions at home, more so than expanding their business internationally.

Entrepreneurial alertness: A mechanism for innovation and growth in an emerging economy

AbstractIn this study, we draw from the conservation of resources theory to develop and test a model on the processes through which resiliency influences two entrepreneurial strategies, product differentiation and international diversification. Results from 226 entrepreneurs in Pakistan demonstrate that psychological resiliency predicts product diversification and international diversification through entrepreneurial alertness. Also, we find that institutional voids moderate the relationship between entrepreneurial alertness, product diversification, and international diversification. Our theorizing advances entrepreneurial alertness as a lynchpin variable for operationalizing founders’ characteristics to affect innovation and expansion efforts. Furthermore, by demonstrating the complementary effect of institutional voids on the entrepreneurial alertness–product differentiation and entrepreneurial alertness–international diversification relationships, we draw the attention of entrepreneurs to the brighter side of institutional voids. This is an important addition to international entrepreneurship literature and a critical contextual contribution to entrepreneurial alertness theory development because limited attention is devoted to examining how resiliency promotes entrepreneurial alertness for facilitating product differentiation and international diversification strategies in the Asia Pacific region.

(Invited) Growing Production Capacity in PEM Electrolysis: Learnings and Technical Accomplishments

Development of hydrogen production capacity with low carbon intensity (low carbon dioxide emissions) is an essential part of reaching global sustainability targets and mitigating long term climate change. While electrolysis has been commercial for decades, many applications have been smaller scale, and only a small fraction of the total hydrogen production is made from water rather than methane. In the US, there have also now been 7 Hubs selected which each have minimum targets of 50 metric tons of low carbon hydrogen production per day. The only way to meet these capacities in the near term is with proven commercial technologies such as liquid alkaline and proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysis. However, even though PEM technology has been commercial for decades, it has only recently reached megawatt scale, and most “gigafactories” that have been announced are not completely built out or staffed for these demands. It is therefore essential that PEM developers scale manufacturing capacity of cell stacks significantly in the next few years.Experience in commercial installations, manufacturing, and previous scale up are critical to success. Nel Hydrogen US has successfully scaled up cell stack active area by almost 2 orders of magnitude from its earliest products, and has gained decades of real world experience in how different field operation can be from controlled internal tests. The smaller platforms also offer built in verification testing for new designs and manufacturing methods. This talk will discuss Nel’s stack scale up journey, as well as updates on current expansion efforts.

Fueling innovation management research: Future directions and five forward‐looking paths

AbstractResearch about innovation management explores how the future is created—who is creating it (organizations, collaborations, etc.), for what aims (customer satisfaction, market performance, etc.), and with what broader effects (social, environmental, etc.). With this extended essay, we explore the potential futures of innovation management research in three ways. First, we briefly review the history of past research agendas and priorities published in the Journal of Product Innovation Management (JPIM), highlighting three broad topic areas (technological, social/environmental, and organizational) that have emerged over time and their potential disruptive implications for innovation management research. Second, we describe the outcome of a gathering of leading scholars in innovation management tasked with the challenge of identifying critical research paths for our field. This collaboration resulted in five “deep dive” essays into areas ripe for innovation management research in the years ahead: liquid innovation, artificial intelligence in innovation, business model innovation, public value innovation, and responsible innovation. Third, we reflect on this expansive effort and offer a discussion of implications (tensions, challenges, and opportunities) for future innovation management scholarship.

Investigating the potential of unconventional resources in the Midland Basin: A comprehensive chemostratigraphic analysis of a Cline Shale (Wolfcamp-D) core

Basinal mudrocks assigned to the Wolfcamp Group in the Midland Basin are prolific producers of oil and gas. Technological advancements in horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing have been successful in the exploitation of oil and gas from these tight mudrocks. However, many challenges remain unsolved in capturing their macroscale compositional variations to enhance recovery factors and delineate “sweet spots”. To gain improved insights into this fine-grained system, high resolution chemostratigraphic (XRF) data was integrated with mineralogical measurements (XRD), logs, thin sections, and TOC readings, as well as hierarchical cluster analysis to: 1) develop a sequence stratigraphic framework, and 2) reconstruct paleo-redox, as well as ancient water-mass, conditions within the Cline Shale (Wolfcamp-D) from a core in the Midland Basin.This study revealed the presence of three chemo-stratigraphically distinct depositional sequences in the Cline Shale, herein termed Lower, Middle, and Upper Cline from the base upwards. All three units exhibit distinct mineralogical and petrophysical characteristics, were correlated across the basin, and interpreted as third-order sequences. Superimposed onto the three interpreted third-order sequences within the Cline, are potential higher frequency (fourth-order) sequences. These fourth-order sequences typically consist of a lower interval, interpreted as lowstand deposits and an upper interval, which is interpreted as transgressive and highstand deposits. The lower interval is interpreted to be deposited during highly reducing conditions while the upper interval is interpreted to be deposited under suboxic conditions. The highest organic matter preservation is associated with the interpreted lowstand deposits, especially in the Upper Cline. Optimal landing zones (20 ft) are recognized in the upper zone of the Cline Shale based on their high resistivity, total organic richness, elevated siliceous content, and reduced percentage of clay minerals. These zones have been correlated with several nearby wells.The current study demonstrates the wealth of information that can be gained from a single core/well when properly investigated at high resolution with measurements on a cm-scale. The observed shifts in the chemistry of the sediments character and composition are distinct, with implications for sequence stratigraphic analysis, the reconstruction of ancient water-mass conditions, and the identification of “sweet spots” for hydrocarbon resources. The provided analysis lays a foundational basis for further studies in the region, serving as critical data input for expansive regional research efforts.

Security Concerns of the Russian Federation and Türkiye's Position Within the Scope of Georgia Intervention to South Ossetia in 2008

This article provides a comprehensive analysis of the geopolitical landscape in the South Caucasus, focusing on Russia's strategic interests, NATO and EU expansion efforts, and Turkey's role as a regional actor. It begins by examining Russia's "Near Environment" doctrine, emphasizing Moscow's perceived security threats and its proactive measures to maintain influence in its immediate surroundings. The 2008 conflict between Russia and Georgia serves as a focal point, illustrating the complex interplay of historical, ethnic, and political factors in the region. The article explores the origins of the Georgian-Ossetian crisis, the escalation into the "Five-Day War," and the subsequent recognition of South Ossetia and Abkhazia by Russia. It also examines Turkey's stance on the conflict, balancing support for Georgia's territorial integrity with economic and strategic interests in the region that advocates respect for Georgia's territorial integrity and sovereignty in the context of international law, but at the same time does not ignore its security concerns of Russia and aims to maintain a policy of balance in the Black Sea Basin and the Caucasus in the context of regional peacekeeping. Furthermore, the analysis highlights the international community's response to the conflict and its implications for regional stability. The conclusion underscores the significance of the South Caucasus in global geopolitics, particularly in shaping the balance of power in the Black Sea region. Overall, this article offers valuable insights into the complex dynamics of conflict and cooperation in a strategically vital area of Eurasia.

Community pharmacists’ attitudes toward and practice of pharmacy-based harm reduction services in Pittsburgh, PA: a descriptive survey

BackgroundIn Pittsburgh, PA, legal changes in recent decades have set the stage for an expanded role for community pharmacists to provide harm reduction services, including distributing naloxone and non-prescription syringes (NPS). In the wake of the syndemics of the COVID-19 pandemic and worsening overdose deaths from synthetic opioids, we examine knowledge, attitudes, and practices of harm reduction services among community pharmacists in Pittsburgh and identify potential barriers of expanded pharmacy-based harm reduction services.MethodsWe provided flyers to 83 community pharmacies within a 5-mile radius of the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center to recruit practicing community pharmacists to participate in an anonymous electronic survey. We used a 53-question Qualtrics survey consisting of multiple-choice, 5 or 6 point-Likert scale, and open-ended questions adapted from 5 existing survey instruments. Survey measures included demographics, knowledge, attitudes, and practices of harm reduction services (specifically naloxone and NPS provision), and explored self-reported barriers to future implementation. Data was collected July–August 2022. We conducted descriptive analysis using frequencies and proportions reported for categorical variables as well as means and standard deviations (SD) for continuous variables. We analyzed open-ended responses using inductive content analysis.ResultsEighty-eight community pharmacists responded to the survey. 90% of participants agreed pharmacists had a role in overdose prevention efforts, and 92% of participants had previously distributed naloxone. Although no pharmacists reported ever refusing to distribute naloxone, only 29% always provided overdose prevention counseling with each naloxone distributed. In contrast, while 87% of participants had positive attitudes toward the usefulness of NPS for reducing disease, only 73% of participants ever distributed NPS, and 54% had refused NPS to a customer. Participants endorsed a lack of time and concerns over clientele who used drugs as the most significant barriers to offering more comprehensive harm reduction services.ConclusionsOur findings highlight that while most community pharmacists have embraced naloxone provision, pharmacy policies and individual pharmacists continue to limit accessibility of NPS. Future expansion efforts for pharmacy-based harm reduction services should not only address the time and labor constraints identified by community pharmacists, but also fear-based policy and stigma toward people who inject drugs and harm reduction more broadly.

Empowering STEM students: A university-wide mentorship program fostering retention and belonging.

In the face of a challenging climate STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) higher education that is resistant to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion efforts aimed to increase and retain students from historically excluded groups (HEGs), there is a critical need for a support structure to ensure students from HEGs continue to be recruited retained. The Biology Undergraduate and Master's Mentorship Program (BUMMP) embodies this commitment to fostering scientific identity, efficacy, and a sense of belonging for first-generation and historically underserved undergraduate and master's students at UC San Diego. The mission of BUMMP is to cultivate a sense of belonging, instill confidence, and nurture a strong scientific identity amongst all its participants. At its core, the three pillars of BUMMP are(1) mentorship, (2) professional development, and (3) research. Quality mentorship is provided where students receive personal guidance from faculty, graduate students, postdocs, and industry leaders in navigating their career pathways. Complementing mentorship, BUMMP provides paid research opportunities and prioritizes professional development by offering workshops designed to enhance students' professional skills. These three pillars form the backbone of BUMMP, empowering students from all backgrounds and ensuring their retention and persistence in STEM. So far, we've served over 1350 mentees, collaborated with 809 mentors, and had over 180 mentees actively engaged in BUMMP-sponsored research activities. The primary focus of this paper is to provide a programmatic guideline for the three pillars of BUMMP: mentorship, professional development, and research. This will offer a blueprint for other institutions to establish similar mentorship programs. Additionally, the paper highlights the impact of the BUMMP program and surveyed mentees who have participated in the mentorship and research component of BUMMP. We showed that mentorship and research experience enhance students' sense of belonging, science identity, and science efficacy, which are key predictors of retention and persistence in pursuing a STEM career. Overall, BUMMP's expansive efforts have made a tremendous impact at UC San Diego and will continue to foster a community of future leaders who will be prepared to make meaningful contributions to the scientific community and beyond.

Factors Affecting Return on Assets in the Renewable Energy Sector during Supply Chain Disruptions

Return on assets (ROA) is a critical metric in assessing a company’s sustainability, especially in light of supply chain disruptions. Within the renewable energy sector, such disruptions often lead to a decline in ROA. Through the utilization of a within-between random model, this study uncovers the necessity for distinct strategies both prior to and during supply chain disruptions to maintain a high ROA. Pre-disruption, emphasis should be placed on securing additional funding for research and development (R&D) initiatives and expanding market reach. However, amid disruptions, sustaining a high ROA demands a strategic pivot. Specifically, renewable energy firms should scale back expansion efforts, redirect cash toward R&D, and exercise caution when venturing into new international markets, particularly in the absence of substantial government subsidies. Notably, this paper focuses solely on large-scale listed companies, overlooking potential innovative strategies employed by smaller-scale companies—an area ripe for future investigation. Despite this limitation, our findings offer valuable insights into enhancing sustainable performance within the renewable energy sector.

Concurrently, the imperative of sustainability compels organizations to operate with consideration for environmental, social, and economic factors. Bearing this reality in mind, the aim of this study is to investigate, from the perspective of entrepreneurs of internationalized Portuguese companies, the factors contributing most to the importance they attach to digitalization in inducing internationalization. Using statistical methods of regression analysis (linear and logistic multivariate regression), the study seeks to identify the complex interactions between digitalization strategies and international expansion efforts. The results shed light on the critical role that digitalization plays in supporting internationalization goals and furthering sustainability objectives, stating that there is a strong connection between the importance of digitalization partnerships, counselling, and access to the new technologies and resources. Additionally, budget constraints may pose challenges for companies prioritizing digitalization efforts.

Social Capital as a Framework to Address Organizational Climate Change Policy.

To examine state Area Agencies on Aging (AAAs) in Pennsylvania for services they provide to older adults regarding extreme events and how readiness can be captured through social networks and policies at the local, state, and federal levels. Using an online survey, 79% of AAA directors answered questions describing perceptions and actions related to social capital and its influence on policy. AAAs acknowledged weather/temperature changes impact the need to prepare for common scenarios of extreme weather, temperature, and flooding. AAAs reported major social connections with county government and one state agency, with limited connections with federal agencies. Multiple opportunities exist for AAAs to consider climate change in expansion efforts, specifically regarding health care. Geriatric nurses can play a key role in expansion, advocacy, and policy development for AAAs that serve older adults in the context of climate change.
