PROJECT PROCUREMENT MANAGEMENT

This is a new book on Project Procurement Management ...well sort of. A decade ago my son and I wrote a book on this same subject which was entitled Subcontract Project Management: Subcontract Planning and Organization. Our book covered the subject of Project Procurement management, but it was targeted specifically to the aerospace and defense industry.

Procurement 20/20

Does my procurement organization already employ best-in-class practices, sophisticated tools with the right talent, and the necessary formal and informal cross-functional linkages? Some 50 to 90 percent of the companies that answer this question will respond “no.” On the one hand, this realization is a good indication of readiness for change and the acceptance that development is neede…

CRASH COURSE IN ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS

Crash Course is not an accounting textbook. We believe that standard accounting texts make the subject inaccessible for the nonaccountant. This is a crash course, born out of years of our experience training students and professionals who need to learn accounting quickly in order to understand financial reports, perform financial analysis, and speak the language of business. Our trainees come f…

INNOVATIVE MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Organisations are devices for creating value through the effective use of resources. While they need to create value for all contributors of resources, a premium is placed on value creation for customers and shareholders. After all, an organisation is unlikely to be able to offer inducements to other resource contributors if it does not provide value to its customers. Also, shareholders are awa…

THE ECONOMICS OF SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH AND HEALTH INEQUALITIES

In 2000, the World Health Organization (WHO) acknowledged the need to further explore the relationship between health and the economy by setting up the Commission on Macroeconomics and Health (CMH). One of the main conclusions of the work of CMH was that investing in health could not only be of intrinsic value but could in addition produce important economic gains. In response to the growing …

THE SIMPLIFIED GUIDE TO NOT-FOR-PROFIT ACCOUNTING, FORMATION & REPORTING

There are very few studies showing the exact number of not-for-profit (NFP) organizations in existence in the United States. The reason for this is the enormous diversity in legal structure, type of activities performed, and level of tax exemption and reporting that NFP organizations encompass. The few studies that have been performed show the number of NFP organizations has grown almost expone…

Long-Run Growth Forecasting

Forecasts are usually made to help and guide decision making. Good fore- casts are preconditions for good, informed decisions. These decisions may vary from a financial market bet on interest rate changes to the policy decision on how to structure a country’s pension system. Ideally, decision-makers should be as well prepared as possible for the future, which would allow them to act appropria…

Accounting Theory

This essay is concerned with the development of professional ethics in service institutions. The discussion deals with the transition from simple acceptance of definite responsibilities in functional relationships to the primal teleological problem of selecting among competing groups with their own semi-independent value systems and conflicting ends in view (objectives).

Virtual Futures for Design, Construction & Procurement

Architects and other designers inhabit a curious borderland between the virtual and the physical. They have always been concerned with conjuring up things that don’t exist but might, imagining them in detail, and eventually finding ways to translate these visions into physical reality. Over the last half-century, computer-generated virtual worlds have played an increasingly crucial role i…

Applied Econometrics with R

R is a language and environment for data analysis and graphics. It may be considered an implementation of S, an award-winning language initially developed at Bell Laboratories since the late 1970s. The R project was initiated by Robert Gentleman and Ross Ihaka at the University of Auckland, New Zealand, in the early 1990s, and has been developed by an international team since mid-1997.
