BEE1025 Statistics for Business and Management : Explanation of the Re

Introduction:

The paper has effectively helped in evaluating the facts associated with the quality of operations by various governments in various countries as well as its determinants. The strength of the study was also reflected throughout the paper as the use of standard production function was adopted which helped the management team for executing the entire work process. On the other hand, one of the fact evaluated throughout the study of the article was fundamental puzzles that are based on the quality of the government. It will suggest some of the factors that needs to be followed within the study based on government efficiency. 

Explanation of the research

The research executed throughout the paper revealed the construction of the new objective measures of the government effeminacy within the 159 countries. The study considers government efficiency as productivity that describes a significant relationship between few of the factors such as performance, technology and management quality. The use of these methods helped in evaluating the correlation with the other indicators of the quality proposed by the government. The research analyzes the postal service that is implemented in 159 countries where from each state two letters to the five largest cities were sent to an invalid address (Osei-Kyei & Chan, 2015). The use of these measures was also used for putting the argument that low public sector productivity is partly analyzed by the similar factors as that exited within the private sectors).  Based on international conventions that is being agreed upon by the specific nations where any undelivered mail must be returned within a stipulated time to the origin country (Roman & Miller, 2015). It is important for the concerned governments to work on their desire strategies and increase the reliability of the various work processes so as to bring out the positive results which finally gives rise to the development of the entire country.  

Summary of the approach, methodology and main findings

The key findings based on the particular study is related to technology that explains 30% of the difference in one standard deviation change and mail return efficiency rates in Weber bureaucracy index changes output per employee by 108%. A development in the non-political bureaucracy and the quality of professional increases an output higher than the double in comparison with the raised development in closed bureaucracy. The other statistically important variables involves the employees of public sector acts impartially and the public sector workers who works with the spirit of providing public service. By observing the productivity of supplying services the gauging government efficiency provides with the same outputs that are generally used by the existing practices at the time of preparing the research immune into the political affinity of the survey related to the respondents. The research provides the fact that government efficiency increases if the quality of management is developed in the public sector similar to private sector. An alternative measure concerning the capital stock was also considered with the number of offices based on per capita (Johnson, Leenders & McCue, 2017). The management quality throughout the public, as well as the private sectors, are obtained considering the different sources and these help in explaining the preferred variation in the pots productivity across various countries (Torchia, Calabrò & Morner, 2015).

Strengths and weaknesses of the study

Strengths

The research focuses upon the outcomes that helps to meet the efficiency of a specific service. Earlier researchers entirely depend upon the surveys that differs as per the sample size and the political affinity of the respondents. Thus, the research is not considering itself to be holistic in any aspect. Within, the study the researchers determines a range of various comprehensive factors that may put an impact on the returning of the mail to the developing countries (Chong, La Porta, Lopez-de-Silanes & Shleifer, 2014). It may put an impact on USA that involves attitudes or the religious views of the country towards USA. Ultimately for 159 states the study implements a service that will follow the similar global convention.  

Weaknesses

 The study possess few of the weaknesses based on government efficiency. Within the particular study the research the researcher adopts a non-political opinion of a political entity which is considered to be government. The researcher’s views government as a service provider that best suits to the Eurocentric belief (Davis & Metcalf, 2016). This particular factor might not be evident in other such cases where government efficiency and bureaucracy consist of more components as compared to service delivery.

Discussion of the implications of the study

The particular measures of the quality of management in the private as well as public sectors demonstrate the differences in the postal productivity all over the country. This will increase the postal productivity in private as well as the public sectors. It is observed from the study that college education and per capita income has removed the statistical significance and reduced the size of the management variables (Lavertu, 2016). In 159 countries the study had adopted the measures of government efficiency based on the return of incorrect addressed universal mail. The measures help in correlating with other factors of the government service that proves to be advantageous. It used another measure that finds a relationship between low public sector productivity and the factors discussed in the private sector. It documented a range of management variables that will help in finding a difference between postal efficiency (Djankov, Nikolova & Zilinsky, 2016). It is observed that government efficiency could be improved by paying less attention to the non-political factors such as, well management of the bureaucracy and investing in the technology. It can be seen that the adoption of corruption could be a significant problem for the developing countries that will lead to poor management of government services. Corruption could be considered to be a weakness for incentive and monitoring systems.

Conclusion:

The paper concluded by assuming government efficiency as productivity that is based on management quality and technology. It provided with the specific key findings that provides with the difference in the return efficiency and standard deviation change. Therefore, the paper explained the research study along with the summary of the approach, methodology and main findings. It also focused upon the strengths and weaknesses of the study based on the return of incorrect international letters. It is noticed that the strengths and weaknesses puts a direct impact on the developing countries like USA. Moreover, the paper provided with the implications based on the research study.
