Abstract This article explains the execution and delivery progression phases of the project lifecycle. It is the third phase of the project lifecycle that leads to the final realization of the project's goals. However, this essay will describe the understanding of the ‘enlightened planning’ approach during the execution and delivery strategy progress of a project’s lifecycle. The features and details in the Enlightened Planning and PMI PMBOK Guide are compared. The author explored the nature and role of basic frameworks such as the project lifecycle, the process phase structure, and key project definition questions — the seven Ws (Who, Why, What, Which way, Wherewithal, When, Where). Combining Enlightened Planning and PMI PMBOK Guide, the differences between the two approaches are given. In addition, the author elaborated the advantages and disadvantages of the two approaches in current practice.

AbstractHow could labour be mobilized for the production of agricultural commodities in colonial lands? This question was discussed by European powers on many occasions between 1895 and 1930, within the International Colonial Institute (ICI). Three key phases and issues can be identified in these debates relating to Africa: the recruitment of Indian indentured labour (1895–1905); the recruitment and management of indigenous peoples as paid labourers (1905–1918); and the mobilization of indigenous smallholder agriculture (1918–1930). During the whole period under study, the use of constraint, and its legitimacy, appear as a permanent feature of ICI debates. Associated first with European plantations, the use of force became a means to mobilize native farmers in accordance with the conceptions of colonial administrations regarding good agricultural practices. In addition, the ICI’s vision of colonial realities evolved from an out-of-date position during the first and second phases to a forward-looking one during the third phase, albeit one quite unrealistic in the scope of its ambition.

Rural Tourism is an important feature in development of emerging states in India. This case study, an UNDP funded project with ministry of Tourism, GOI, focuses the problem faced by a NGO in developing a rural tourism in Jharkhand in India for a decade. The management issues are feasibility and financial viability, lack of project and infrastructure planning, role of government agencies. The case stresses need of project risk management in this type of private partner partnership

AbstractBackgroundCOVID-19 quickly spread to the world, causing a pandemic. While some studies have found no link between Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) and COVID-19, the role of the opioid on COVID-19 is challenging. The present study aimed to determine the relationship between OUD and COVID-19.MethodsThis was a prospective cohort study. We used data from the third phase of the Shahroud eye cohort study on 4394 participants which started in September 2019 and ended before the COVID-19 epidemic in Shahroud in February 2020. The participants were followed for 10.5 months till November 2020. COVID-19 was detected by RT-PCR on swap samples from the oropharynx and nasopharynx. The incidence of COVID-19 compared in OUD and Non-OUD participants, and relative risk was calculated in Log Binomial Regression model.ResultsAmong the 4394 participants with a mean age of 61.1 years, 120 people had OUD. The incidence of COVID-19 in participants with OUD and Non-OUD were 3.3% and 4.5%, respectively. The relative risk of OUD for COVID-19 was 0.75 (95% Confidence intervals: 0.28 – 1.98; P= 0.555).ConclusionsOpioid use disorder was not associated with COVID-19. The claim that people with OUD are less likely to develop COVID-19 is not supported by this data.

Overview of the conventional PRM methodology is based on the introduction of a PRM system that comprises a PRM context, a PRM process, and PRM tools. Typical PRM process steps to identify, address, assess, monitor, etc risks are reviewed to comply with PRM context (i.e. features and challenges of a project). Main sorts of uncertainties related to risks as possible impacts on project objectives—uncertainties of identification, manageability, assessments of impacts and probabilities, and favourability—are discussed. Key PRM tools to support the PRM context and the process—a PRM plan, a bowtie diagram, a risk breakdown structure (RBS), a risk assessment matrix (RAM), and a risk register—are introduced. A role of psychological and organizational bias as a systematic error in the PRM process is elaborated.

The article reviews the main sources of regulatory and legal enforcement of risk management in commercial enterprises: international standards, codes of practice and manual, as well as laws of the Russian Federation, rules and requirements of regulating authorities. The evaluation of the completeness and role of international documents and legal acts in support of the development of risk-management is given; the problem of their use in home business is examined. As a result of comparison of different approaches used in the international standardization of risk management, the main advantages and disadvantages of use of international standards as a guide to risk management and infrastructure management are identified. The ways of improving the regulatory framework of the national risk management are suggested.

In the modern world based on open national economies, individual countries are closely related and even interdependent in terms of trade, investment flows, labor migration, as well as cooperation at the level of enterprises. The role of enterprises in foreign markets in the form of FDI is growing, while the national economies compete for the inflow of such capital. Due to the fact that since the 1990s Poland has been extensively involved in internationalization processes, it seems important to find answers to the questions: how has the inflow of FDI into the country evolved over the years; what position have Polish investors built in foreign markets during this time; and, finally, what is the current position of Poland on the investment development path. To answer these questions, research tools such as the review of domestic and foreign literature were used and desk research (based on NBP and UNCTAD statistical databases) was carried out to determine the position of the Polish economy in the IDP model. The analyses indicate that since 2008, Poland has been moving towards the third phase of the IDP model in a slow but steady manner.

The first phase of the magnesium effect, the increase in tension with increasing concentration of magnesium, up to about 25 µm, is abolished by the metal chelators DCTA and EDTA, but not by EGTA. DCTA is much stronger than EDTA in abolishing this first phase. The second phase of the magnesium effect, the decrease in tension with increasing concentration of magnesium, from about 25 µm to about 1 mm, is reduced when the concentration of ATP is decreased from 5 mm to about 0.5 mm. The third phase, the increase in tension with increasing concentration of magnesium to above 1 mm, is also reduced by metal chelators. However, EGTA is the strongest and DCTA is the weakest in reducing this third phase. From these observations, it is suggested that the first and the second phases are due to Mg (probably in the form of Mg-ATP complex) and that the third phase reflects the effect of a small amount of Ca which has been well established ( J. Biochem., Tokyo 50: 236–244, 1961 and J. Biol. Chem. 234: 2764–2769, 1959).
