  • A4 Paper Format / International Standard Paper Sizes
    A4 paper format / International standard paper sizes International standard paper sizes by Markus Kuhn Standard paper sizes like ISO A4 are widely used all over the world today. This text explains the ISO 216 paper size system and the ideas behind its design. The ISO paper size concept In the ISO paper size system, the height-to-width ratio of all pages is the square root of two (1.4142 : 1). In other words, the width and the height of a page relate to each other like the side and the diagonal of a square. This aspect ratio is especially convenient for a paper size. If you put two such pages next to each other, or equivalently cut one parallel to its shorter side into two equal pieces, then the resulting page will have again the same width/height ratio. The ISO paper sizes are based on the metric system. The square-root-of-two ratio does not permit both the height and width of the pages to be nicely rounded metric lengths. Therefore, the area of the pages has been defined to have round metric values. As paper is usually specified in g/m², this simplifies calculation of the mass of a document if the format and number of pages are known. ISO 216 defines the A series of paper sizes based on these simple principles: ● The height divided by the width of all formats is the square root of two (1.4142). ● Format A0 has an area of one square meter. ● Format A1 is A0 cut into two equal pieces.

  • Facilitating Project Management Through Effective Quality Management: the Need for Implementing ISO 9000 in Construction
    Built-Environment-Sri Lanka -Vol. 03, Issue 02:2003 Facilitating project management through effective quality management: the need for implementing ISO 9000 in construction N.D. Gunawardena Abstract This paper describes the relationship between project management and quality management. It identifies the similarity between the recognised project quality management processes and the ISO 9001 quality management system; then it illustrates how ISO 9001 quality requirements could be applied to construction project management. The paper also presents the results of a survey carried out to identify quality management practices adopted by local construction companies, using ISO 9001 standard as a yardstick. According to the survey, the companies had some shortcomings with respect to quality management during the construction stage. The results indicate that the lack of proper quality management could, in turn, affect the project management adversely; this point is supported by the Project Management Process Maturity Model, which is a quality improvement model that uses five levels to determine the relative maturity of any organisation and its ability to achieve cost and schedule objectives of a project. Finally, the paper suggests that the quality managements systems based on ISO 9000 could be very effective in facilitating the project management efforts in the construction industry. Introduction A project can be defined as a complex, non-routine, parties must have mutual understanding as to what one-time effort limited by time, budget, resources and services are to be provided by the contractor in return performance specifications (Gray and Larson, 2000). for the agreed consideration; this usually is ensured by Project Management is the application of knowledge, a set of documents such as drawings and specifications skills, tools and techniques to project activities in order that define the scope and the performance aspects of to meet or exceed stakeholder need and expectations the product.

  • Influence of ISO 9001 Certification on Project Management Performance in Software Industry
    European Online Journal of Natural and Social Sciences 2018; www.european-science.com Vol. 7, No.3(s) Special Issue on Contemporary Research in Social Sciences ISSN 1805-3602 Influence of ISO 9001 certification on project management performance in software industry Anum Safder*, Samina Yousaf Comsats Institute of Information Technology, Lahore, Pakistan *E-mail: [email protected] Abstract For the success of software projects, the Project Management is considered as an important tool. Organizations can understand Project Management Performance in an improved way if they exercise Quality Management System. This empirical study investigates the impact of ISO 9001 certification on Project Management Performance (six constructs of PMP) and how PM Performance varies for ISO- certified software houses and Non-certifies software houses. Data was collected from project managers of both ISO-certified and Non-certificated software organizations registered under P@SHA and PSEB of Pakistan. 192 questionnaires were used for analysis. Independent Sample t- test was used for conducting the analysis and results concluded that software houses with ISO- certification show a better PM Performance than with no certification. Keywords: Project Management, ISO 9001 certification, software industry. Introduction Currently, project management is being extensively used in business. Quality management and project management are two interlinked terms and can be described in similar manner. The situation in which there is a strong influence of repetitious processes, the quality management is most successful field. In reference to the project management process, how to conduct a project is a scenario where there is a very vivid effect of QM which is slightly ignored or a limited focus is paid on its effect by academic professional.

  • Avoiding Greenwashing in Event Marketing: an Exploration of Concepts, Literature and Methods
    Journal of Management and Sustainability; Vol. 7, No. 4; 2017 ISSN 1925-4725 E-ISSN 1925-4733 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education Avoiding Greenwashing in Event Marketing: An Exploration of Concepts, Literature and Methods Kai-Michael Griese1, Kim Werner1 & Johannes Hogg2 1 School of Management, University of Applied Science, Osnabrück, Germany 2 School of Management, Fresenius University of Applied Science, Hamburg, Germany Correspondence: Kai-Michael Griese, School of Management, University of Applied Science, Osnabrück, Germany, Caprivistraße 30a, Tel: 49-541-969-3880. E-mail: [email protected] Received: August 25, 2017 Accepted: September 20, 2017 Online Published: October 25, 2017 doi:10.5539/jms.v7n4p1 URL: http://doi.org/10.5539/jms.v7n4p1 Abstract Greenwashing, defined by the Oxford Dictionary as “disinformation disseminated by an organization so as to present an environmentally responsible public image” can cause multifarious problems for companies. The phenomenon of greenwashing has, however, not attracted much attention in the event marketing literature to date. The purpose of this paper is twofold. It first describes and analyses the specific characteristics and features of greenwashing in event marketing. It then seeks to identify the current fundamental approaches of how to avoid greenwashing in event marketing and to assess their potential. A two-step literature analysis with complementary search approaches served as a methodical framework. First, journals related to event marketing were screened for the keywords “greenwashing” and “greenwash”. Next, the general literature was consulted for the same keywords. The results clearly demonstrate that the subject of greenwashing has been widely neglected in the event literature.
