EFFECTIVE
TIME MANAGEMENT AS A TOOL FOR ORGANIZATIONAL SURVIVAL
CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE ESSAY
Management
study has revolved over long period of time and successive means of thought in
industry and commerce have severely described it as the basic ingredient of
administering a business.
In
support of this view Yakubu (1989) defined management “as a social process
entailing responsibility for effective and economical planning and regulation
of the operation of an enterprise, in fulfillment of given purpose or tasks”
while organization have been working hard to attaining the purpose for which
they have been established, the issue of the time it takes to achieve this
often neglected. This situation is unfortunate and need to be taken seriously
by organizations if the attainment of set goals is to be at maximum profit.
In
other words, organization have to properly manage the time it take to attain
their goals so as to reduce costs to the bearest minimum.
Adamu
(1974) has defined time management as “the art of planning a job, measuring
such jobs through reducing such activities to time elements (expressed in terms
of pieces per unit or time per piece) and monitoring it to determine efficiency
and productivity.
This
implies that work must be divided among and between specialist workers with at
a time instead of the whole, thus minimum effort is applied by individual
workers and maximum output achieved.
Despite
the gaining advantage of time management or not attention is paid to it by
organization.
This
evident when one carefully leads individual workers exclaims that it is not my
factors business are also find a lot of individual working hard over
organization are meant of the theories of management.
At
independence, the size of its armed forces were small and growth was to be a
gradual process, and if the influence of the country was to be yet in the sub
region, Africa and the world at large, a dynamic foreign policy was to be
vigorously pursued.
To
meet the part of the increasing needs of armed forces, the Omimi shoes factory
was producing boots for the whole army and local textile mills; rolled out
materials for the working dressed of officers and men of the armed forces. In
essence a good number of quarter master items were already being produced locally
to ensure that military orders for annum action will be met without resorting
to massive importation, the federal government set up the defence Industrial
Corporation of Nigeria (DICON).
DICON
came into being by act of parliament in 1964. it was charged with the
responsibility of locally manufacturing of ammunitions for the armed forces, to
reduce its over dependence on foreign countries for its ammunition
requirements. It was charged with responsibilities of:
a)
Operation, maintenance and control of
ordinance factories for the manufacture, storage and disposal of ordinance and
ancillary stores and materials intended for or capable of being used by the
armed forces.
b)
Operation of any ordinance factory
under its control on a sound commercial basis so as to fill the normal defence
requirements of the armed forces.
c)
Utilization of any excess capacity
for meeting civilian needs of Nigeria
d)
Inspection and testing or ordinance
and materials for use by the armed forces and duty to recommend for adopting or
rejection as the case may be.
e)
Testing and inspection on behalf of
any of the government of the federation any substance, material, machine or any
other thing intended for capable of being used by the armed forces.
To
speed up the achievement of the above goals, the federal invited a West German
arm manufacturing firm of Frintzwerne to provide the technical expertise
required to set up an ordinance factory in Kaduna
Presently,
DICON is running industries complex in the premises of the old ordinance
factory in Kakuri Kaduna south. The constituent factories are:
A: Armament Factory (ARMFAC)
B: DICON Casting Company (DCC)
C: DICON Furniture Company (DFC)
The
headquarter of the corporation is in Kaduna
1)
Directorate of Administration
2)
Directorate of Finance
3)
Directorate of Plan and Engineering
Services
4)
Directorate of Production and
5)
Directorate of Research and
Development
The
DICON has staff strength of 967 it is also headed by a director general who
must be a serving military officer of the rank of Brigadier and above.
He
is assisted by the directors and all staffs under them are answerable to their
directors. However, the researcher will limit herself to the head quarters
which has a staff strength of 124, among whom are five (5) Directorates, 17
executives officers and 54 junior staff.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Despite
the importance of time in the provision of services in organization, not much
attention seems to have been paid to it. There are those who hold the minority
opinion that paper qualification, not withstand ability to carry out assigned
roles (basing time used) should take precedence over ability to effectively use
minimum time to produce maximum outputs, consequently time management is not
given the attention it deserved, and when used to quantify jobs- it is applied
sparingly, which is insufficient to show results, it is because of those
development that this identified the following problems for the essay:
That
there is the existence of ignorance on part of management as regards to scope
and specific use of time saving formalities. That where such skills exists, the
level of utilization is too marginal.
That
lack of prior training of executive secretaries etc in the schedule of duty,
delegating duties when possible, to enhance output at its end of the day is
another cause for concern.
That
the introduction of such methods leads to exploitation of work.
1.3 OBJECTIVES OF THE ESSAY
The
major objectives of this essay is to examine the effect of time management on
the production of goods and services, as well as to determine the lessons, if
any to be learnt from the results of data collected through this essay.

1)

3)

4)

1.4 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE ESSAY

organization, it is hoped that the findings of this essay would be of benefit

it workforce using DICON.
In
doing this DICON with large number of staffs would be utilized to solicit
intention on whether or not the organization are aware of the services of the
time management and the application effect of time management productivity.
1.6 LIMITATION OF THE ESSAY
This
essay work requires time, and a lot of moving around. The limitation of time
was a major encumbrance encountered by the researcher in the cause of her work.
The fact that the research work requires the researcher to move around from the
headquarters in the metropolis into the factory complex at Kakuri requires
money, which the researcher is short of.
In
effect the researcher had to limit herself to the corporation headquarters in
the metropolis.
