TOPIC: The impact of Digitalisation and Technology Integration: Time tracking and Project Management solutions

RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS.

Your Results and Recommendations sections are based on your methodology and the type of data collection technique that you used. In this section you are reporting the analysed data you collected. This means you must provide your completed flow chart, time study sheets, pert chart, questionnaire and interview data $($not the completed

questionnaires or interview but the analysed data of the questionnaire, illustration below$)$

RESULTS

Types of results

$1.$ Flowcharts

$*$Purpose: Visual representation of the steps in a process.

$*$Use: Helps identify inefficiencies and bottlenecks.

$*$Provide completed flowchart and discuss each part of the process

Recommendations $=$ the new proposed flow chart

$2.$ Time Study Sheets

$*$Purpose: Templates for recording time taken for tasks.

$*$Use: Helps in capturing data during time studies.

$*$Provide completed forms: Element Breakdown sheet, Observation sheet, Analysis sheet, Summary sheet.

$*$Discuss the finding of each sheet and what they mean

Recommendation $=$ provide specific solutions based on what you found on the sheets

$3.$ Pert Charts

$*$Purpose: Visual representation of a project schedule.

$*$Use: Helps in planning and tracking project timelines.

$*$Completed Chart, including each process:

$$Identify Tasks: List all tasks required to complete the project.

$$Determine Dependencies: Identify which tasks depend on the completion of others.

Estimate Time: Gather time estimates for each task.

$$Draw the Chart: Create nodes for each task and connect them with arrows to represent dependencies.

$$Calculate the Critical Path: Identify the longest path through the chart to find the critical tasks.

Recommendation: Solutions based on your findings from the process above

$4.$ Questionnaire &$/$or Interviews

$*$Purpose: Collecting input from employees about processes.

$*$Use: Gathers insights on potential improvements and employee satisfaction.

$*$Provide at minimum of $30$ graphs and a discussion see example below:

$*$Recommendation: provide a specific solution based on your findings, which should be responding to each of your objectives.

Example of questionnaire result:

If $30$ people completed my questionnaire. $18$ indicated that they were Dissatisfied, $8$ were Very Dissatisfied, $1$ was Very satisfied and $3$ were satisfied.

How would you rank your overall satisfaction with the store?

Very Satisfied

$(1=3\%)$ Satisfied

$(3=10\%)$ Dissatisfied

$(18=60\%)$ Very dissatisfied

$(8=26\%)$

Figure $5\mathrm{.}1$ Customer Satisfaction

Discussion: The study found that $3\%$ of the population that participated in the study were very satisfied, $10\%$ were satisfied. $60\%$ of the participants$/$respondents stated that they were Dissatisfied and $26\%$ were Very dissatisfied. The overall percentage of participants are dissatisfied with the store, this is an area of concern and requires close

attention.

Be creative by using different graphs and charts for your results, Eg$.$ Pie charts, bar graphs, etc. This means you will have $30$ or more graphs in your results section, all from your Interviews$/$Questionnaires$/$Focus Groups. Your graphs must be properly labelled and numbered.

Ensure that you explain the result and discuss what it means as illustrated in the example above. This section has no references
