Published: January 2023

This study considered supply chain management (SCM) practices and manufacturing firms’ performance in Delta State, Nigeria. Specifically, it investigated the relationship between strategic purchasing practices, strategic supplier partnership, customer relationship, and Just-In-Time capability as dimensions of SCM on non-financial performance of manufacturing firms. The descriptive survey research design was employed. Data were elicited from the employees of the thirty (30) manufacturing firms registered under the Manufacturing Association of Nigeria (M.A.N.), Delta State Chapter as at 30th June 2021 and are also registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC). The population of the study is 150 employees comprising only the managers, heads of: production department, logistics department, customer service department, and accounting department and the total enumeration sampling technique were used. The instrument for data collection is the questionnaire. It was designed to elicit information concerning the subject matter. The data retrieved from the respondents were analyzed using descriptive statistics while Pearson Product Moment Correlation was used to test the hypotheses in order to determine the extent to which the independent variables were related to the dependent variable at an alpha level of 0.05. Results showed that there exists a significant relationship between strategic purchasing practices and manufacturing firms’ performance; a statistically significant relationship exists between strategic supplier partnership and manufacturing firms’ non-financial performance; there is a significant positive relationship between customer relationship and manufacturing firms’ performance; and a statistically significant relationship exists between Just-In-Time (JIT) capability of a manufacturing firm and its non-financial performance. The study concluded that a significant relationship exists between all the studied dimensions of SCM (strategic purchasing practices, strategic supplier partnership, customer relationship, and Just-In-Time capability) and the non-financial performance of manufacturing firms in Delta State, Nigeria, which implies that an increase in the practice of these SCM dimensions would lead to a corresponding increase in their non-financial performance. Based on the findings, the researcher recommended that manufacturing firms in Delta State no doubt, recognize the essence of valuable SCM practices in their operations. Based on this, the Manufacturing Association of Nigeria should continually encourage these firms to uphold these practices by using them as benchmark for raising the standard of manufacturing firms across Nigeria.

Introduction: Identification whether of living person or of dead bodies have always been an uphill task for forensic experts. Traditional ways of identification are used commonly due to limited resources and lack of trained personals in the relevant field. Identification becomes very important when victim or assailant is unknown. To establish identification, methods commonly used are finger prints, foot prints, DNA technology. Lip prints a relatively neglected field of identification can be used to establish identification and sex determination producing almost same results as other methods of identification. Objectives: To determine whether lip prints can be used from their configuration to determine the gender identification. Material and Method: 75 medical college students with equal gender distribution, 35 male and 35 females were included in the study. Students were aged between 18 to 25 years. Inclusion criteria: Students with no lip abnormality were included in the study. Exclusion criteria: Students with any abnormality of lips or who have some lip surgery were excluded from the study. Results: The uniqueness of the lips was established by the facts that no two lips matched with each other.	Females revealed type I, I’ most abundant, whereas type IV was abundantly observed among males.	From the current study, with inexperienced observers it was revealed that from sample of 20 lip patterns from each gender, 18 females and 17 males were easily identified. Conclusion: Identification of a person whether living or dead is a challenging task for forensic experts around the globe. Lip prints are among the cheapest and easily available methods of identification producing almost same results as finger prints. It is a rather neglected area which needs to be focused more as it is cheap and can be equally effective in producing almost same results as other related methods used for identification and sex determination in particular unknown cases.

Pada PT. Pupuk Iskandar Muda yang bergerak di bidang industri kimia. Perlu diketahui bahwa pada PT. Pupuk Iskandar Muda di Tahun 2018 pernah mengalami kelebihan (over stock) persediaan bahan penolong dan spare part disebabkan human error dan perhitungan yang tidak sesuai untuk kebutuhan perusahaan yang mengakibatkan kelebihan stock yang membuat persediaan menumpuk di penyimpanan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengendalian dan merencanakan persediaan bahan penolong karena perhitungan atau metode dari perusahaan juga pernah tidak tepat sasaran. Perhitungan pemakaian bahan penolong yang optimal dengan menggunakan metode Material Requirement Planning (MRP) yang dapat mencegah terjadinya kelebihan dan kekurangan persediaan bahan penolong digudang. Terdapat metode MRP menggunakan teknik lot sizing dimana teknik yang digunakan adalah teknik lot for lot, economic order quantity, dan period order quantity serta menggunakan perhitungan peramalan sebagai acuan untuk mengetahui jumlah kebutuhan bahan penolong dimasa mendatang. Hasil metode optimal yang didapatkan dengan menggunakan metode MRP, adalah metode yang memiliki total biaya bahan penolong terendah. Berdasarkan hasil yang diperoleh dari perhitungan perbandingan biaya dapat disimpulkan bahwa pengendalian persediaan untuk seluruh komponen bahan penolong yang optimum dari metode yang baik diantara LFL, EOQ, dan POQ adalah metode lot for lot, dan period order quantity karena pada metode lot for lot memberikan pemilihan biaya unit terkecil. Pada bahan penolong Sodium carbonat sebesar 46.407.816. Sedangkan metode period order quantity memberikan biaya persediaan yang timbul kecil. Pada bahan penolong Coagulant Aid persediaan yang timbul sebesar 9.619 dengan pemesanan sebanyak 6 kali selama periode berurutan. Maka pembelian sebanyak kuantitas tersebut akan lebih efisien sesuai dengan kondisi perusahaan.
