The Impact of strategic implementation on the employees and contractors of the Hewlett-Packard Company.
No full textConducted within the global corporation of the Hewlett-Packard Company, (HP),this research examines employee and contractor responses to strategic implementation. The research environment is a relatively small UK group withinthe corporation that has continuously experienced significant change as new strategies were implemented. Employee and contractor responses to three separate cycles of change are analysed together with data drawn from the wider corporation by using a psychological contract framework, semi-structured interviewing, a research diary and secondary data from the literature and electronic sources. The research is essentially qualitative but draws on quantitative data where appropriate. A case study approach within an action research paradigm is the chosen methodology to allow consideration and triangulation of multiple sources of data relevant to the natural workplace setting. The research has confirmed a change from old or original psychological contracts to new contracts where employees and contractors are more insecure in, and more cynical of, their employment. This change is perceived as a
violation of their psychological contract and is causing employees and contractors to adopt a more mercenary approach to their employment with HP. The special bond between HP and its employees generated by the values and
egalitarian working environment created by its founders has been broken by new leadership. Acquisition of the Compaq Computer Company has further impacted employees and contractors resulting in declining morale and increasing scepticism about its proposed benefits. Indeed the very legitimacy of the acquisition and the leadership of HP are being questioned as HP changes to a new form. According to the founders, the values established that made HP successful in its first fifty years were expected to continue for at least another fifty years. This research shows how changing these values has collectively impacted
employees and contractors resulting in a major threat to the continuing existence of HP in its present form

Business improvement Colombia HP connect
Full text linkEl propósito de este estudio exploratorio es diseñar y ejecutar un plan de mejoramiento a los procesos internos de la plataforma HP Connect en la oferta de portafolio, diseño de la página y la implementación de un nuevo proceso en donde se inspeccione, limpie y transforme los datos generados por la herramienta para entregar conclusiones y apoyar la toma de decisiones. Esta es una herramienta de categoría E-commerce optimizadora de procesos entre la empresa, el mayorista y los canales de distribución, fue una iniciativa originaria de Brasil que posteriormente se implementó en Latinoamérica. La investigación se realizará con los stakeholders externos de HP Inc como población y una muestra compuesta por los canales de distribución que tengan usuarios registrados en HP Connect. La idea principal de su ejecución, es que los usuarios con autorización del mayorista realicen una pre-cotización de sus próximos pedidos sin la necesidad de que este deba pasar por distintas áreas de la empresa en búsqueda de recibir un precio final. Colombia implementó la plataforma a partir del 2019 y desde entonces ha mostrado óptimos resultados, lo que posiciona al país como uno de los líderes en su manejo, no obstante, existen procesos internos que aún no han sido desarrollados en su totalidad y que no permite alcanzar su máximo potencial. Estos procesos influyen en la oferta de productos, diseño y organización de la información y el análisis de datos. ¿Cómo optimizar el funcionamiento de HP connect a través de la mejora de sus procesos internos de oferta de portafolio, diseño de la plataforma y análisis de data?HP COLOMBIA SASProfesional en Negocios InternacionalesPregradoThe purpose of this
exploratory study is to design and execute an improvement plan to the internal
processes of the HP Connect platform in the portfolio offering, page design and
the implementation of a new process where the data is inspected, cleaned and transformed
generated by the tool to deliver conclusions and support decision making. This
is an E-commerce category tool that optimizes processes between the company,
the wholesaler and the distribution channels, it was an initiative originally
from Brazil that was later implemented in Latin America. The research will be
carried out with the external stakeholders of HP Inc as a population and a
sample made up of the distribution channels that have users registered in HP
Connect. The main idea of its execution is that users with the authorization
of the wholesaler make a pre-quotation of their next orders without the need
for it to go through different areas of the company in search of receiving a
final price. Colombia implemented the platform as of 2019 and since then it has
shown optimal results, which positions the country as one of the leaders in its
management, however, there are internal processes that have not yet been fully
developed and that do not allow achieving its full potential. These processes
influence product offerings, information design and organization, and data
analysis.

Evolution of the use, effectiveness and safety of bismuth-containing quadruple therapy for Helicobacter pylori infection between 2013 and 2021 : results from the European registry on H. pylori management (Hp-EuReg)
No full textPublisher Copyright: © Author(s) (or their employer(s)) 2025.background Bismuth quadruple therapies (BQTs) including bismuth, a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) and two antibiotics have been shown to be highly effective for treating Helicobacter pylori infection even in areas of high bacterial antibiotic resistance. Objective To describe the time trends of use, effectiveness and safety of BQT in Europe using the European Registry on Helicobacter pylori Management (Hp-EuReg). Design Patients registered in the Hp-EuReg from 2013 to 2021 who had received BQT were included. The regimens prescribed, the number of eradication attempts, effectiveness, adherence and safety were analysed. The effectiveness was assessed by modified intention to treat (mITT). Time-trend and multivariate analyses were performed to determine variables that predicted treatment success. results Of the 49 690 patients included in the Hp-EuReg, 15 582 (31%) had received BQT. BQT use increased from 8.6% of all treatments in 2013 to 39% in 2021. Single-capsule BQT—containing bismuth, metronidazole and tetracycline—plus a PPI (single-capsule BQT, ScBQT) was the most frequent treatment mode (43%). Schemes that obtained an effectiveness above 90% were the 10-day ScBQT and 14-day BQT using tetracycline plus metronidazole, or amoxicillin plus either clarithromycin or metronidazole. Only ScBQT achieved above 90% cure rates in all the geographical areas studied. Using the ScBQT scheme, adherence, the use of standard or high-dose PPIs, 14-day prescriptions and the use of BQT as first-line treatment were significantly associated with higher mITT effectiveness. Conclusion The use of BQT increased notably in Europe over the study period. A 10-day ScBQT was the scheme that most consistently achieved optimal effectiveness.Peer reviewe
Direct numerical simulation of the turbulent flow around an airfoil using spectral/HP method
No full textSince the accuracy of the widely used Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) approach is limited simulating turbulent flow separation on airfoils, we applied a spectral/hp element method to predict the turbulent flow separation at an airfoil for an angle of attack of 12°. The spectral/hp approach allows to solve the incompressible Navier-Stokes equation with spectral accuracy on unstructured grids by means of Direct Numerical simulation (DNS). Here we present first results we obtained from DNS of the flow around a fx79-w151a airfoil section for a low Reynolds Number = 5000

A proof of concept of a BioMEMS glucose biosensor using microfabricated SU-8 films
Full text linkThe present project investigated and proved the concept of developing a novel
BioMEMS glucose micro-biosensor using a simple one-step microfabrication process of
the widely used SU-8 polymer. More specifically, the study focused on the investigation
of the suitability of the SU-8 polymer as a matrix for enzyme immobilisation that is
carried out during the microfabrication process. A comparative study between
commercially available SU-8 and “customised” SU-8 solutions showed that the
optimum concentration of photo-initiator for stress reduction can be achieved easier
with “customised” SU-8 solutions. The most appropriate type of microstructure for the
SU-8 matrix and the corresponding required microfabrication process were defined and
encapsulation of the enzyme GOx in the SU-8 solution was accomplished. A detailed
experimental investigation of the immobilised enzyme’s activity inside the SU-8 matrix,
was carried out using amperometric detection of hydrogen peroxide in a 3-electrode setup.
SU-8 films were immersed in a buffer solution and the platinum working electrode
was brought in close contact with the film. Films without enzyme showed negligible
variation in current upon the addition of glucose, as opposed to films with encapsulated
enzyme which showed a very clear increase in current. Experiments using films of
increased thickness or enzyme concentration, showed a higher response, thus proving
that the enzyme remained active not only on the film’s surface, but inside the matrix as
well. In the fluorescence spectroscopy experiments, the utilisation of the tris (4,7-
diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline) ruthenium(II) dichloride oxygen indicator, which was
also captured in the polymer matrix during the microfabrication process, was proven to
be very sensitive to glucose concentration changes during the glucose oxidation and
there was no photo-bleaching.
The experimental investigations proved that the proposed concept of using SU-8
matrices for the immobilisation of biomolecules, is a valid proposal for the construction
of a BioMEMS glucose biosensor. An important outcome was the successful
immobilisation of glucose oxidase in SU-8 microfabricated structures. The enzyme still
showed activity despite the “hostile” conditions during microfabrication The proof of
principle of enzyme immobilisation in SU-8 films opens up new possibilities for
combining BioMEMS with biosensors and organic electronics
