Thanks for the response.
On the DB, I am considering AB&T and 8ways for 1-bed, 12 way for 2-bed. Community didn't allow us to take supply for 3-phase, so 3-phase DB was jettisoned for Single phase supply

Very true. The stabilization of the Naira against international currencies in connection with curtailing rampant inflation should take immediate priority with the incoming national administration.

Are we now going to have a successful APC national government? Well, a chick that will grow into a co-ck is spotted on the day it is hatched. Like you said, the days ahead will tell.

If you are looking into setting up equipment hire services, I say don't be discouraged by theft. It's a very lucrative business, like in all things, when done properly. If I'm home based full time, it's a business I will gladly invest in.

The lack of right tools for DIY and trade in Nigeria is shocking. Everything na hammer and nail.

There is another issue. I spent heavily on tools.

One of my tools got bad. It was dropped by the artisan I hired.

He dropped my nail gun.

Which I had earlier reviewed here.

The tool is so rare that I have to go online to get another.

So you need to 1. take pictures and even 2. videos of the tool working before the handover. Rinse and repeat when the tool is returned.

This is where I failed and got burnt.

How do you identify the artisan? I recommend a government-issued valid ID card, but you need to verify the information before you hand it over.

You will also need a caution fee.

This is a very common practice in the US.

They hire tools for sums way below the cost of purchasing them. however no one is going to play a fast one on the companies who hire out the tools in the US unlike what might happen here.

I spent a fortune repairing the tool, but the housing was so destroyed and since it is a power tool, I need to buy another one for parts and then replace the housing because it just won't work properly with the housing glued together.

The Nigerian process may involve sending someone along with the tool, but it does not make sense to me.

Validate the artisan with impossible-to-change government-issued identifiers and you should be good.

Run a social media KYC process too.

Study the home depot process the modify it to suit Nigeria

Just thinking aloud

How to build a kitchen (and why)

This article gives you a choice to spend up to 1/3 the cost of a modern kitchen if you are the DIY type and if you are not, then get a contractor to take the stress off you in exchange for the money.

Written by someone who claims he has built 17 kitchens.

In the US, you can get quotes of between $25,000.00 and $75,000.00 for this kind of kitchen.

In Nigeria, you can quote between N5,000,000.00 and N25,000.000.00

Over to you

Interesting facts about Employee transportation services automation

Employee transportation services Automation is the process of automating employee transportation services, which can be anything from a private car to mass transit. It’s important to note that this is not just about technology; it’s about understanding how employees need to get to work and what they need to do their jobs effectively.
5 Interesting Facts About Employee Transportation:

Employee travel has become a trend in many cities around the world. The ease and convenience of transportation services have made it easier for people to travel to work. This has led to a rise in the use of transportation service automation.
#1: Optimal Cost Management

Employee transportation service automation can help the organization save money.

The cost of running an organization depends on factors such as the number of employees and their locations, fuel costs, and vehicle maintenance costs.

It is estimated that the cost of employee transportation can account for up to 50% of a company’s total transportation costs. Automated transportation can help reduce these costs by automating the transportation process and reducing the need for human involvement.

By automating these processes, companies can save on fuel, maintenance, and driver time. This also makes working remotely easier because they do not have to worry about driving back home after a long day at work.

Additionally, organizations can streamline their vital processes by managing workflows more effectively. This can improve collaboration within the company and reduce redundancy.
#2: Improved Efficiency

One of the many benefits of employee transportation service automation is that it can help increase productivity. The company can provide transportation for its employees through employee transportation services automation.

With the advent of new technology, however, it’s becoming easier to ensure that your employees get where they need to go safely and on time. Arrival and departure times can be more accurately predicted, leading to fewer missed opportunities and delays.
#3: Enhanced Safety and Security

Employee transportation automation has many benefits, but the most obvious is enhanced safety and security. A GPS tracking system allows for complete coverage and mapping of the travel function.

This ensures that employees don’t have to rely on their own devices, which might not be working or have malfunctioned somehow. It also allows for customized routes based on the needs of each employee, rather than simply sending them out for a predetermined amount of time with no regard for their needs or preferences.

A GPS tracking system can provide enhanced safety and security for employees, including panic buttons, fully networked software-based emergency alarms, real-time vehicle tracking, background verification, and number masking so that employees and drivers do not need to share their numbers.
#4: Strict Monitoring

An automated transportation system integrates with vehicles and driver phones to provide extensive information on driving patterns. You can keep a closer eye on your drivers. Automation can help reduce the number of accidents and fatalities in the workplace.

It also helps you monitor drivers more closely, which means you can identify risky driving and reduce accidents, check insurance premiums and other costs associated with hiring and maintaining drivers, and prevent downtime for staff members.

This means that employees can be monitored more closely than ever before, ensuring they drive safely and follow all regulations.
#5: Error-Free Operation

Employee transportation systems are a critical component of any organization’s management. By automating these systems, you can ensure that your employees’ transportation needs are met promptly and reduce your costs associated with human error and maintenance issues by utilizing a tool that can store data on the cloud.

Automation tools are a powerful tool for the transportation industry. They allow businesses to operate their systems at scale and streamline operations while providing data-rich insight into how the process is working.
