Title A name given to the resource Elimination of waste and inefficiencies through lean maintenance management in mining industries, Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Kofi Mintah Oware, Solomon Samanhyia, George Oppong Appiagyei Ampong Description An account of the resource Due to growing global competition, the mining industry has suffered significant share of losses and the mining industry in Ghana is no exception. Lean operations and maintenance is a widely accepted and adopted approach across many industries and this concept has not been tested in a Ghanaian situation. The Process Maintenance section of the Processing Department was studied to identify the successes, failures, and challenges of lean maintenance implementation, in the areas of maintenance system, rework and maintenance cost. Qualitative and quantitative measures were used to document and compare the individual case studies. Both primary and secondary data on the Processing Plant of Newmont Gold Ghana Limited was used to analyze the effects and benefits of the lean maintenance implementation in a pre and post comparison. Findings of the study showed that Newmont Gold Ghana Limited was able to reduce reworks (defects), plant down time, and maintenance cost and all these reductions added to the total improvement in the company’s operations. The general observation also revealed the need for a continuous training of workers on ways in improving lean maintenance culture.

Title A name given to the resource Determining mobile money service customer satisfaction and continuance usage through service quality Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource , Robert Ebo Hinson Description An account of the resource Mobile money service is a major retail financial service provided by telecommunication firms and formal banking institutions in many countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. The increased patronage of mobile money services demands that telecommunication firms enhance the quality-of-service delivery they offer in order to stay competitive. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the service quality factors that influence customer satisfaction and continuance usage of mobile money services. Data were collected from 494 users of mobile money services. Using structural equation modeling, this study tested hypotheses on the effect of service quality variables on customer satisfaction and continuance usage of mobile money services. The findings indicate that the availability of services, facilities, and security influence customer satisfaction, whereas the expertise of the service provider, the operator’s network system, and responsiveness influence continued use of mobile money services. The findings of this study will assist mobile money service providers and policymakers in planning services that will increase customer satisfaction and retention. The study contributes to identifying service quality constructs that influence customer satisfaction and continuance usage in the mobile money context Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://link.springer.com/article/10.1057/s41264-021-00138-5 Language A language of the resource English https://repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/776890f9178287e6cb08b6df6c8441e1.pdf de381a51d832d4df09187c5c93815eb8 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Factors influencing information security policy compliance behavior Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource John Agyekum Addae, Grace Simpson, George Oppong Appiagyei Ampong Description An account of the resource Globally, banks are deploying reliant data protection technologies to secure business continuity. However, information security attackers leverage on employees seldom predisposition to compromise firms' assets. The study therefore examines attributing factors influencing information security compliance behavior in the Ghanaian banking sector. A survey design approach was adopted to validate the research model. Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) were used to analyze 329 valid data. The model results showed that perceived threat, vulnerability, response cost, and efficiency had a significant effect on compliance but interestingly not for Self-Efficacy. Perceived threat severity had the most significant effect on IS compliance behavior. Overall, our model accounted for 60% of the variation in IS compliance.

Title A name given to the resource Comparison of rheological models for determining dark chocolate viscosity Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa, Alistair Paterson, Mark Fowler, Joselio Vieira Description An account of the resource Parameters in chocolate rheology, namely shear viscosity and yield stress, are important in manufacture and directly influenced by product particle size distribution (PSD) and composition. The Casson model was the standard confectionery industry strategy to quantify rheological properties of molten chocolate until in 2000, the International Confectionery Association recommended the use of interpolation data to describe viscosity. The two strategies are compared and correlated in defining rheological properties of molten dark chocolates prepared using different PSD, fat and lecithin content. Rheological parameters were determined using a shear rate-controlled rheometer and data examined using correlation, regression and principal component analyses to establish their inter-relationships. Correlation and regression analyses showed high correlation (r = 0.89–1.00) and regression coefficients (R2 = 0.84–1 … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Oxford University Press Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2009 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&amp;hl=en&amp;user=EZuX1N8AAAAJ&amp;pagesize=80&amp;citation_for_view=EZuX1N8AAAAJ:eQOLeE2rZwMC Language A language of the resource English https://repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/6d941477783659f9ae1ed2bcd85f1619.pdf 9baf9ca502243db2311cd312833945f2 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource The interplay between privacy, trust and self-disclosure on social networking sites Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Eli Fianu, Kwame Simpe Ofori, Richard Boateng, George Oppong Appiagyei Ampong Description An account of the resource Social Networking Sites (SNSs) have become an essential part of the daily lives of billions of people worldwide. Because SNS service providers use a revenue model that relies on data licensing (selling of user data), they share user data with other parties such as government institutions and private businesses. Sharing of user data to third parties raises several privacy concerns. Apart from privacy issues emanating from SNSs sharing user information with third parties, privacy issues may also emanate from users sharing information with SNS members. This study is motivated by the researchers’ interest in investigating self-disclosure amongst Ghanaians especially from the perspective of privacy and trust primarily because of recent reports of revenge pornography and other self-disclosure related privacy violations on SNSs in Ghana.

Title A name given to the resource Influence of pulp-preconditioning and fermentation on fermentative quality and appearance of Ghanaian cocoa (Theobroma cacao) beans Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource OA Emmanuel, Q Jennifer, SB Agnes, ST Jemmy, KS Firibu Description An account of the resource Studies were conducted to evaluate effects of pod storage (as a means of pulp pre-conditioning) and fermentation time on the fermentative quality and appearance of Ghanaian cocoa beans. The fermentative quality (cut test and fermentation index [FI]) and colour (L, a, b) of the cocoa beans were studied using standard methods. Increasing pod storage and fermentation time significantly (P< 0.05) influenced the fermentative quality and appearance of the beans. Fermentation caused significant increases in FI at all periods of pod storage whilst increasing pod storage resulted in darker, yellower and less red beans. Cut test scores revealed that storage of pods for 7 and 14 days increased the percentage of brown beans by 15 and 38% respectively by the sixth day of fermentation. Thus, Ghanaian cocoa pods could be stored for up to 14 days prior to fermentation with optimum fermentative quality and desired colour … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Universiti Putra Malaysia, Faculty of Food Science & Technology Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2012 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&amp;hl=en&amp;user=EZuX1N8AAAAJ&amp;pagesize=80&amp;citation_for_view=EZuX1N8AAAAJ:LYDvBi7O6RsC Language A language of the resource English https://repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/e862ffdb684928cc85fd232f6373d632.pdf 17aaa82d97b7796bb29f659838ec7b3e Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Owner-managers failure experience and business model innovations in B2B firms: The roles of coopetition, managerial persistence, and financial resource slack Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Richard B Nyuur, Francis Donbesuur, Diana Owusu-Yirenkyi, George Oppong Appiagyei Ampong, Ahmed Adel Tantawy Description An account of the resource This study proposes and tests a model of how and when previous failure experience can impact on subsequent business model innovation of business-to-business (B2B) SMEs. Analysis of survey data from a sample of 182 B2B SMEs in Ghana indicates that failure experience is positively related to business model innovation – and that coopetition capability mediates this failure experience. Further analysis of boundary condition effects reveals that high levels of financial resource slack strengthen the positive relationship between coopetition and business model innovation, while the level of managerial persistence has no effect on failure experience and coopetition relationship. We discuss the theoretical and managerial implications of these findings.
