Assessment of the Level of Automation and Utilization of Enterprise Resource Planning System – A Case Study of Kenya Medical Training College
Get PDFIn the twenty-first century, Enterprise Resource Program (ERP) systems have become widely used as the preferred corporate management tools. They are essential in a number of roles, including project planning, administration, finance, human resources, and supply chain management. In order to better management and administration, academic institutions, including Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC), have begun to replace their outdated systems with ERP projects. This study attempted to evaluate the ERP system\u27s installation at KMTC by evaluating the extent of automation in its various departments in improving efficient service delivery. A sample of 115 respondents were chosen using proportionate stratified sampling as part of a descriptive survey research methodology. Statistical analysis reveals that that most of the respondent with less than 50% reported little extent of automation of ERP system. However, the finance department had a large extent of automation as compared to other departments with 51.3%. Additionally, the extent of use of ERP for various functions recorded less than 30% overall in all the operations carried out by the College. In light of these findings, the study proposes stakeholders in KMTC to develop comprehensive ERP implementation plans incorporating change readiness assessments and robust training programs to boost user acceptance and competency
An Analysis of Bank-Level Determinants of Electronic Payment Innovations in Nigerian Deposit Money Banks
Get PDFThis study investigates the bank-level determinants of electronic payment innovations of Deposit Money Banks (DMBs) in Nigeria. The research follows ex post facto design using a panel of fourteen DMBs from 2012 to 2021. The Difference-Generalized Method of Moment (D-GMM) was utilised in the analysis at 5% level of significance. The results reveal that Bank size, bank age, research and development, capital adequacy ratio, and asset quality consistently and significantly influence the adoption and usage of various payment channels such as ATM banking, mobile banking, internet banking, and POS banking. This implies that electronic payment innovations in Nigeria are influenced by bank size, bank age, research and development (R&D), capital adequacy ratio (CAR), and asset quality (AQ). It is recommended that DMBs prioritise investment in research and development to foster innovation. There is also the need to create a supportive regulatory environment and facilitates collaboration between banks and stakeholders
Reforms in Muslim Personal Law: Dissolution of Muslim Marriage Act 1939
Get PDFEvery law must be revised to adapt it over time. So are Islamic personal laws. The Islamic Personal Law (Shariat) Application Act 1937 states that the personal affairs of certain Muslims are governed by their pure Sharia law. Several important provisions such as inheritance, childcare and custody, dissolution of marriage, polygamy, etc. have been modified, supplemented or reformed by both state laws and legal precedents. These reforms caused significant changes in the interpretation, application and interpretation of classical Islamic law. In many cases, the reforms so far deviate from the classical laws in these matters. This article attempts to examine and analyze these reforms based on whether they are compatible with Islamic legal sources
