Boafowa, J.A. In the fast-paced, constantly-changing modern world, gaining and maintaining logistics excellence demands more effort. The main objective of the study is to examine when and how digital innovation capabilities influence firm performance. The quantitative research approach was adopted. Also, explanatory and descriptive research design was employed. Cross-sectional survey strategy was utilized with questionnaire serving as the instrument of data collection. The study adopted convenience sampling and purposive sampling techniques in sampling firms and respondents respectively. The quantitative data collected was analyzed descriptively and inferentially using statistical package for social sciences (SPSS latest version). The findings of the study indicated that digital innovation capabilities are very essential in firm performance. Also, the findings of the study indicated supply chain visibility mediates the relationship between digital innovation capabilities and firm performance. The findings of the study indicated that supply chain responsiveness does not moderate the relationship between digital innovation capabilities and firm performance. The study recommends that firms firm develop dynamic capabilities such as supply chain responsiveness to maximize the benefits of digital innovation capabilities in influencing firm performance.

In the fast-paced, constantly-changing modern world, gaining and maintaining logistics excellence demands more effort. The main objective of the study is to investigate the moderating role of IT capabilities on digital innovation on operational resilience. Data was collected and analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS), version number 29.0.2 of 2024. The study sampled 100 respondents to represent the population using the convenience sampling technique. The findings of the study indicate that digital innovation is very essential to operational resilience. Also, the findings of the study show that IT capabilities have a positive and significant relationship with digital innovation and operational resilience. In addition, the findings of the study revealed that IT capabilities moderate the relationship between digital innovation and operational resilience. The study recommends that firms formulate policies that lays emphasis on strengthening digital innovation and IT capabilities, in order to impact more positively on operational resilience A Dissertation in the School of Business, Submitted to the school of graduate studies, in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the award of Master of Business Administration (Procurement and Supply Chain Management) in the University of Education, Winneba Mon, 01 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT http://41.74.91.244:8080/handle/123456789/4765 2024-01-01T00:00:00Z http://41.74.91.244:8080/handle/123456789/4763 The effects of supply chain disruption on operational performance of the Ghana Armed Forces the moderating role of information technology. Sosuh-Kumassah, M. In the fast-paced, constantly-changing modern world, gaining and maintaining logistics excellence demands more effort. The main objective of the study is to examine the moderating role of information technology in the relationship between supply chain disruption and operational performance. The quantitative data collected was analyzed using Structural Equation Modelling using SmartPLS. The findings of the study indicated that supply chain disruption negatively influences operational performance. Also, the findings of the study indicated information technology positively influences operational performance. In addition, the findings indicate that information technology moderates the relationship between supply chain disruption and operational performance. The study recommends that firms formulate policies that stress on a strengthening information technology since it has been found to have no impact on operational performance.

Awortwe, S. This Study explores the extent of awareness and understanding among retailers in the Cape Coast Metropolis regarding Value Added Tax (VAT) and its Effect on tax compliance. Utilizing a sample size of 150 respondents and employing a descriptive research design, the study aims to evaluate retailers' awareness and comprehension of VAT, identify factors that influence this awareness, and examine how it affects tax compliance behaviors. The Finding reveals that retailers' awareness and knowledge levels of VAT are influenced by various factors. While formal education is a significant factor, other contributors include the accuracy of VAT information provided by the government, personal interactions with tax authorities, and communication within the market. These findings challenge the notion that awareness and knowledge of VAT are solely dependent on formal education, emphasizing the complex interplay of different factors in shaping retailers' understanding of VAT, which subsequently impacts their tax compliance practices. The moderate level of awareness observed among retailers highlights the need for targeted educational initiatives aimed at improving comprehension and compliance behaviors. Based on the key findings of the study regarding VAT awareness and its implications on tax compliance among retailers in the Cape Coast Metropolis, it was ascertained that Integrating VAT concepts into the formal education curriculum can lead to a long-term positive impact on tax compliance. By introducing students to VAT principles early on, they will develop an understanding of their tax obligations from the beginning of their business ventures. This foundational knowledge will shape their compliance behaviors as they transition into entrepreneurs.
