Purpose: The aim of this study was to establish the impact of beneficiary involvement and participation in CDF funded projects with specific reference of CDF projects in LAMU Constituency.Methodology: The study adopted a descriptive case study research design. The population of the study consisted of 107 projects in Lamu East constituency. This implied that 107 project management committees (PMC) were the target population. The preferred data collection instrument was a questionnaire. The data was analyzed by both statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) and excel spreadsheet.Results: The study findings indicated that the beneficiaries /community members of Lamu East constituency were not given the opportunity or right to participate in evaluating, Selecting and prioritizing projects.   Overall, there was low beneficiary participation in CDF projects. From the findings, it is possible to conclude that that there is a low awareness of CDF projects in LAMU east constituency. Furthermore, the level of education of project beneficiaries was low. The low level of awareness may have led to the low participation of beneficiaries. To a large extent the level of education had affected the level of participation in CDF funded projects. It was also possible to conclude that the low level of education may have led to the low participation of beneficiaries in CDF projects. Finally, it was possible to conclude that, the low level of beneficiary participation affected CDF project implementation.Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy:  It was recommended that the project management committees should encourage the participation of beneficiaries in evaluating, selecting and prioritizing projects, determining the location of the projects, follow-up or monitor the project and participation of management of project funds. Furthermore, the Government through the CDF committee should carry out awareness campaigns to sensitize the beneficiaries of their right and obligation to participate in CDF projects.

The scope of this article is to explore the transaction profitability of frequent and sporadic buyers in the e-commerce arena. Evidence in relationship marketing literature stressing the impact of purchase frequency on customer transaction profitability as well as recent academic research challenging this approach and pointing out the importance of sporadic clients is analyzed and presented. A single case study research methodology was chosen for this article due to the exploratory facets associated with the subject and the industry under investigation. In order to gather relevant input to carry out this research, one of the largest retailing groups in Brazil was investigated. Conclusions are drawn showing that greater frequency of purchases does not necessarily translate into increased customer transaction profitability. Implications are presented, enabling practitioners and academics to grasp fully the real value of customers — both frequent and sporadic buyers — in order to develop coherent approaches for dealing with them adequately.

Purpose Additive manufacturing requires a systemic approach to help industry on technology applicability research. Towards this end, the purpose of this research is to help manufacturing business leaders decide whether digitalised manufacturing based on additive manufacturing are suitable for engineering applications and help them plan technology transfer decisions. Design/methodology/approach The methodology is based on case study research and action research, involving a mix of quantitative and qualitative research methods. The empirical part involved the study of the fatigue life of industrial component manufactured by laser sintering as well as a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods to define a strategic decision-making. Findings Laser-sintered plastic materials are suitable in end use automotive applications, especially when there are multiple product variations. Fatigue life of the tested coupling meets the design requirements. Additionally, production of mechanical parts can be substituted by additive methods while digitalising the manufacturing process to gain productivity, especially when there is a need for mass-customisation. Research limitations/implications This research relies on a single case study research. The application used is unique and its technical empirical data cannot be transferred directly to other applications. Practical implications Industry practitioners can use this research to shed light on technology transferability challenges considering technical feasibility of additive polymer materials, economic aspects as well as strategic implications for implementing digitalised manufacturing methods based on additive manufacturing. Originality/value This research presents a combined study of technical and strategic factors for additive manufacturing transferability using an industrial mass-customisation case as an example. In addition, a new cost comparison model is presented including the impact of geometry variations.

The Impact

The relationship between landscape installations and safety or pedestrian activity was evaluated in pilot studies. The sites selected for study were those adjacent to or within the areas often referred to as the “clear zone” of the transportation corridor, an area shared by pedestrians and driver perception. Case study research on the impact of environmental mitigation on driver safety is summarized to identify the landscape installations in the clear zone that appear to have an effect on safety. This is followed by case study research on the identification of variables that encourage walking for health purposes. Preliminary findings indicate that the improved definition of spatial edge resulting from typical curbside and median landscape treatment in the clear zone appears to solicit positive behavioral responses by either attracting pedestrian activity or improving driver safety. It is not possible to draw definitive conclusions from the results because of the small sample sizes in the pilot studies (a pedestrian survey included 52 responses), but indications are that the landscape in the clear zone may be having a positive impact on safety or pedestrian activity under certain circumstances. Both pilot studies were conducted separately in Canada and the United States.

The study explores the impact of participatory systems on information quality using Abu Dhabi as a case study. Participatory systems are used for deciding social change to affect residents and citizens positively. The case study research method was used to examine information quality in a participatory system. Content of the participatory system was assessed for information quality and it was found to support theoretical claims that Abu Dhabi residents and citizens participate in building sustainable competition using participatory systems. The limitations of the study are found in its focus on a single application, the app CityGuard. Through examining the use of CityGuard, specific issues were recognized which allowed the definition of steps on how its use could impact social change more positively. This paper presents findings from the use of CityGuard as a public participatory tool.
