As the Greek economy is still in a deep and prolonged recession, exploring profitability issues in specific sectors could help identify those sectors which could act as drivers of growth for the Greek economy out of the recession. The tourism sector, which accounts for almost 25% of GDP in Greece (directly and indirectly), is an obvious candidate for contributing to this end. The econometric results suggest that the recent crisis has resulted to a differentiation of the determinants of profitability of Greek tourism firms.","PeriodicalId":42560,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Investment Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2016-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64786543","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A number of programs such as Beyond Zero campaign, investment in Kidney Dialysis machines, Cancer Scanning machines among others have been launched towards quality health care. It is in this light that this study delves into the influence of public procurement planning practices on provision of quality health care services. Procurement planning involves material requirement planning, resource planning and capacity planning which will be linked to health care service quality. The indicators of procurement planning are used to formulate the specific objectives. The theories on which the study was based on include the Resource Based View Theory and Systems Theory. The research used survey design as only one organization was studied. Therefore, the target population was comprised of top, middle and lower level managers which totals to 98 at Nakuru General Hospital. The study adopted stratified random sampling which gave a sample of 79 managers to be included in the study. Questionnaire was used to collect necessary data and the questionnaire was closed ended. The data collected was then processed using SPSS. Inferential statistics was conducted to test the relationship between the variable where Karl Pearson correlation coefficient was used. Further, descriptive statistics was used where mean and standard deviation were used for generalization of respondent’s opinions. The findings of the study are beneficial towards enhancing health care quality at the Nakuru Level V Hospital. Further, it is beneficial to other Hospitals around the Country struggling with offering quality health care services with respect to the role of procurement planning in achieving the same. The results (p = 0.001) indicated that there is a statistically significant relationship between public procurement planning practices and provision of quality health care because P value is less than 0.05. Regarding the influence of public procurement planning and quality health care, the study established that capacity planning had the greatest influence on quality health care (Beta =.372), followed by master production schedule (Beta = .359), then resource planning (Beta=.117) and finally material requirement planning which had a Beta of .132.","PeriodicalId":42560,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Investment Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2016-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64816991","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the shortage of funds, lack of technology and the lack of professional talents, small and medium-sized enterprises are facing the bottleneck of information construction. Therefore this paper puts forward a cloud service model in the information construction. This paper compares the differences between cloud computing and traditional patterns in the aspects of stability, flexibility, cost, and security. The practical significance of the cloud model is also discussed. Cloud model can improve the operational efficiency of the existing equipment, reduce the initial investment and operating costs, including management, update, and reduce the overall cost of the user. Finally, verify the cost advantage of information construction by using the actual data of small and medium-sized enterprises. Cloud model in two aspects of software cost and service cost advantages.
