The issue of corporate mandatory standards in production improvement programmes

Purpose: This paper aims to explore and describe how companies manage the level of standardisation of improvement practices in a multisite context. It seeks to explain the managerial strategies applied to change the standardisation level in manufacturing companies with multiple production sites worldwide.Design/methodology/approach: This paper collects data through interviews, observations and company documents from a large multinational producing company and, specifically, from of the largest production sites in the company. The research design resembles a grounded theory approach by being reflexive and open to emerging themes. The standardisation strategy was analysed at a company that strived to increase the standardisation of problem-solving practices within about 20 production sites as part of their corporate lean programme.Findings: Several managerial tools were applied at the corporate level to increase the standardisation level of problem-solving practices, such as developing standards and a company-specific toolbox aligned with an in-house maturity model. In addition, deploying change leaders and global implementation targets enabled audits and progress. However, consequences at the production-site level became minor adaptations of standards, the design of training models as a "roll-out", and a resource-demanding implementation process.Originality/Value: This paper empirically demonstrates strategic tools that corporate management teams apply to influence the company's standardisation level of practices. The study describes the purpose and consequences of the design of the toolbox, maturity model, training model, and implementation targets, which aims to simplify the complex task of managing standardisation in a corporate group. By applying a knowledge-based view, four processes (i.e. adaptation, integration, upskilling, and learning) were identified to improve the management strategies in multisite contexts.

Enhancing the Efficiency of the Individual Case Safety Report (ICSR) Quality and Compliance through Automation.

Over the past few years, major inspection findings have been identified in the "management of adverse reactions" that may be due to increasing workload in pharmaceutical organizations impacting the correctness of information in individual case safety reports (ICSRs). Although retrospective quality check (Retro-QC) and late submission analyses are important steps in ensuring ICSR quality, their manual application poses several challenges that can be overcome through automation. To improve the efficiency of the Retro-QC analysis and late submission analysis using a computer-operated tool called Compliance and Metrics Management (CMM) tool, and to measure the tool's effectiveness in terms of productivity, time, and cost savings by comparing against the manual process. Time savings were calculated by measuring the difference in time taken during the manual process versus the automated process. Cost savings were measured in terms of hourly remuneration for the time saved. Productivity was calculated as the difference between the number of cases handled in the manual versus automated process. Thus, the overall efficiency was measured in terms of time and cost savings along with increased productivity. Automation resulted in time savings of 49% and cost savings of 43% for Retro-QC analysis, and the productivity level increased by 67%. For late submission analysis, the CMM tool resulted in time savings of 88% and cost savings of 87%. CMM tool enhanced the efficiency of both Retro-QC and late submission analyses by increasing productivity along with time and cost savings. It also reduced the number of errors, thereby enhancing the accuracy of the process and overall compliance.

Risk Coupling Assessment of Vehicle Scheduling for Shipyard in a Complicated Road Environment

Vehicle scheduling at shipyards can involve delays due to numerous risk factors encountered in the complicated shipyard road environment. This paper studies the problems of risk coupling in shipyard vehicle scheduling based on the risk matrix approach, considering the complicated road environment, assessing the degrees of coupling and disorder. Based on safety-engineering theory and comprehensive analysis of the road environment, four key criteria are identified, vehicles, the road environment, the working environment, and humans, including 12 factors and their specific contents. The degree of coupling between various combinations of risk criteria is quantitatively determined utilizing the N-K model. Additionally, the degree of disorder in the risk criteria is assessed based on information entropy theory. The model’s correction coefficients are determined through comparative analysis of experimental data. By integrating the degree of coupling and disorder, delays caused by different combinations of risk criteria in scheduling tasks are computed. The quantitative evaluation model enables accurate appraisal of risk events during shipyard vehicle scheduling. The model provides a valuable managerial tool to analyze delays caused when specific risk criteria are met and to compare these delays to the potential impact on time resulting from adjusting vehicle scheduling plans. This research has significant implications for enhancing vehicle distribution efficiency in shipyards.

Experiences of Adversity and Validity of Baseline Concussion Testing.

Neurocognitive testing is a critical tool in the management of sport-related concussions. Adversity during childhood and adolescence affects cognitive tasks, behavioral outcomes, and academic performance. Adversity may be important in baseline concussion test validity as well; however, the influence of these experiences is not well understood. To examine the relationship between individual-level experiences of adversity and baseline test validity of Immediate Post-Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing (ImPACT). We hypothesized that experiences of poverty, maltreatment, or extreme neighborhood deprivation would be associated with lower odds of baseline test validity. Case-control study. Cuyahoga County, Ohio. A total of 6495 student-athletes born from 1995 through 2005 who completed a baseline ImPACT test between 10 and 18 years old and were identified in the Child-Household Integrated Longitudinal Data system, a comprehensive data system with demographic and social service usage outcomes for children in Cuyahoga County, Ohio. Baseline concussion test validity was determined using the ImPACT built-in validity measure. Experiences of adversity during the sensitive developmental periods of early childhood and adolescence were key independent variables. Our findings suggested that social mobility may play an important role in baseline validity. Youth with upward social mobility (ie, poverty or neighborhood deprivation in early childhood only) were not different from youth without such experiences (odds ratio [OR] = 0.91, P = .74). Youth with persistent adversity across childhood or downward social mobility (ie, poverty or high neighborhood deprivation in adolescence only) had 50% to 72% lower odds of achieving a valid baseline test (persistent poverty, OR = 0.59, P = .05; adolescent poverty only, OR = 0.50, P = .004; adolescent neighborhood deprivation only, OR = 0.28, P < .001). Maltreatment had no significant effect on test validity. These findings indicated that certain patterns of adversity may predispose youth to invalid baseline testing scores, potentially increasing their risk of inappropriate injury management and poor outcomes.

Grey preference for analyzing the influence of externality within the graph model for conflict resolution

Externality may have uncertain influence on decision makers (DMs). To address the conflicts with uncertain preference and externality, this study adopts the general grey number to measure the uncertain value of DMs’ option statements influenced by externality. It constructs adjustable grey preference influenced by externality (GPE), which can be dynamically adjusted according to the influence of externality. Subsequently, the study defines four equilibrium solutions for the graph model for conflict resolution based on grey preference influenced by externality (GPE-GMCR). Finally, the method is applied to a commercial bank operating conflict triggered by the Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) collapse in the United States, resulting in optimal results for conflict resolution. Specifically, the new model provides a practical tool for DMs, managers and policy makers to address conflicts arising from DMs’ uncertain preference under the influence of externality in complex environments.

PANDEM-Source, a tool to collect or generate surveillance indicators for pandemic management: a use case with COVID-19 data.

PANDEM-Source (PS) is a tool to collect and integrate openly available public health-related data from heterogeneous data sources to support the surveillance of infectious diseases for pandemic management. The tool may also be used for pandemic preparedness by generating surveillance data for training purposes. It was developed as part of the EU-funded Horizon 2020 PANDEM-2 project during the COVID-19 pandemic as a result of close collaboration in a consortium of 19 partners, including six European public health agencies, one hospital, and three first responder organizations. This manuscript describes PS's features and design to disseminate its characteristics and capabilities to strengthen pandemic preparedness and response. A requirement-gathering process with EU pandemic managers in the consortium was performed to identify and prioritize a list of variables and indicators useful for surveillance and pandemic management. Using the COVID-19 pandemic as a use case, we developed PS with the purpose of feeding all necessary data to be displayed in the PANDEM-2 dashboard. PS routinely monitors, collects, and standardizes data from open or restricted heterogeneous data sources (users can upload their own data). It supports indicators and health resources related data from traditional data sources reported by national and international agencies, and indicators from non-traditional data sources such as those captured in social and mass media, participatory surveillance, and seroprevalence studies. The tool can also calculate indicators and be used to produce data for training purposes by generating synthetic data from a minimal set of indicators to simulate pandemic scenarios. PS is currently set up for COVID-19 surveillance at the European level but can be adapted to other diseases or threats and regions. With the lessons learnt during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is important to keep building capacity to monitor potential threats and develop tools that can facilitate training in all the necessary aspects to manage future pandemics. PS is open source and its design provides flexibility to collect heterogeneous data from open data sources or to upload end users's own data and customize surveillance indicators. PS is easily adaptable to future threats or different training scenarios. All these features make PS a unique and valuable tool for pandemic management.

Regional brand: the essence and formation model

The most critical resource for development and promotion of Russian regions and cities, along with other strategic management tools, is regional bran ding. Branding effectiveness depends on many conditions, including the depth, consistency and scientific understanding of the brand as a tool of a region’s attractiveness. Using a theoretical analysis of scientific literature, the article explains the concept of “regional brand” in terms of key characteristics definition that reflect the specificity of the term. The results of the study concluded that the development and promotion of a regional brand is a complex process which starts with the formation of an integrated system of brand elements. The analysis of experience in designing of the Russian regions’ own brands and the use of the structural modeling method allowed to present a regional brand formation model, describing the main elements of the brand. In the presented model the following six elements were identified: brand platform, positioning, internal brand power, external brand power, communications, resonance. The correlation of each element in the overall system, their importance and influence on the formation of the image and increase in effectiveness of a region’s promotion were determined. The obtained results may be required by representatives of regional administrations that address the branding of territories issues.

Knowledge Conversion Abilities and Innovative Work Behavior of Indonesian Academic Librarians

This study aims to investigate the connection between knowledge conversion abilities and innovative work behavior among academic librarians. It was undertaken due to the scarcity of information on the knowledge conversion capabilities of academic librarians and their association with innovative work behavior. This study conducted quantitative research using a survey questionnaire to collect data from 320 academic librarians working in public and private universities in Indonesia. The study found that academic librarians reported engaging in all four knowledge conversion processes, with combination being the most frequently used, followed by externalization and internalization. Additionally, academic librarians reported being engaged in both types of innovation, but more involved in service innovation than process innovation. The study found that externalization, combination, and internalization were positively related to innovative work behavior, but socialization was not significantly related. The study emphasizes the need for infrastructure and competencies support for librarians to foster knowledge conversion and access to knowledge management tools. A conducive work environment is essential for innovation in academic libraries, and relevant authorities need to provide adequate support. Moreover, this research enhances our understanding of the role of knowledge conversion abilities and innovative work behavior in the context of Indonesian academic libraries.

Corneal Hysteresis as a Marker for Patients with Secondary Glaucoma

ABSTRACT Purpose To investigate and compare the association of corneal hysteresis (CH) in patients with secondary glaucoma to control patients and patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). Additionally, to determine the consistency of CH measurements in patients with secondary glaucoma. Methods A total of 84 patients (121 eyes) were prospectively included in this study. Twenty-three patients (46 eyes) were healthy controls, 24 patients (40 eyes) were diagnosed with POAG, and 27 patients (35 eyes) were diagnosed with a form of secondary glaucoma. CH and intraocular pressure (IOP) were measured using the Ocular Response Analyzer. Three measurements per eye were performed and used for the analysis and to determine fluctuations in CH data. One-way ANOVA with post-hoc Bonferroni analysis and Chi-Squared testing was done to determine differences between groups. Results All patients were matched for age. Patients in both POAG and secondary glaucoma groups were matched for age and IOP. All groups had similar sex and racial compositions as well as similar proportions of diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia. CH was lower (p < .05) in patients with POAG (9.32 ± 1.64) and secondary glaucoma (7.89 ± 3.18) when compared to healthy controls (11.16 ± 1.60). Fluctuations in CH measurements were minimal in all groups. Further analysis of the secondary glaucoma group revealed no differences in CH between different types of secondary glaucoma (p > .05). Conclusion Patients with secondary glaucoma have lower CH when compared to POAG or control groups. The ORA exhibits precision of CH measurements for control, POAG, and secondary glaucoma groups, making it a reliable tool in management of secondary forms of glaucoma.

Decarbonizing our environment via the promotion of biomass methanation in developing nations: a waste management tool

Abstract For a long time, fossil fuel has been a part of our everyday lives and has constantly led to the emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the environment. The release of methane (CH4) into our surroundings can be caused by the decomposition of organic wastes produced by our daily activities; CH4 produced by human activity is responsible for at least 25 % of global warming. CH4 is a known potent greenhouse gas that can trap about 35 times more heat than CO2. These greenhouse gases play a role in climate change and global warming. It, therefore, becomes important to explore measures for decarbonizing our environment. Biomethane production using our generated waste is a promising decarbonization approach with significant potential for mitigating greenhouse gas emissions. This paper overviews potential biomass methanation feedstocks and investigates several technologies, such as anaerobic digestion, combined pyrolysis and methanation, and combined gasification and methanation. SWOT analysis of waste conversion to biomethane was conducted, and important points related to the scaling-up of biomethane production processes were outlined. Also, insights into prospects for promoting biomass methanation deployment were provided. In conclusion, biomass methanation has great potential for producing sustainable energy. Hence, collaboration between industrialists, researchers, government agencies, and stakeholders including an understanding of the financial investments, return on investments, or potential subsidies and incentives could enhance the practicality of the proposed solution. Research and development should be continuously carried out as they are necessary to scale up and promote the technology. Also, there should be technical training for stakeholders as it is essential for the smooth development of the sector.
