Description
general objective of the study was to establish the factors affecting e-procurement in tea processing factories and it was guided by the following objectives; to establish the extent to which system security affects e-procurement implementation, to find out the extent to which cost affects e-procurement implementation, to determine the extent to which legal requirements affects e-procurement implementation in Tea Processing Factories In Nyamira County. This study employed a case study research design to assess e-procurement implementation in Tea Processing Factories in Nyamira County. This study targeted 50 individuals from Tea Processing Factories in Nyamira County. The heads of procurement and stores department and employees among other departments which work with procurement function will be targeted. This study adopted a stratified sampling technique whereby the researcher will carry out a simple random selection of five respondents from the procurement departments and 5 from given sections in finance, marketing and production functions giving a sample size of 40. From the findings it was revealed that; Legal protection of confidential information and the ability to authenticate and enforce electronic contracts were clearly the most cited challenges. Lack of support from the existing legal infrastructure and means for protecting and safeguarding business interest legally while using electronic platform was also seen to be a key challenge. This is clearly corroborated by the fact that currently the ICT policy in existence has not fully created a supportive legal framework where related issues are addressed. The integration of suppliers into a seamless procurement platform as a key objective of any e-procurement system was also noted. Notably internet connectivity and system integration with those of suppliers were key impediments. Lack of trained personnel and necessary support hardware were still key impediments just as was in the case of cost consideration. I recommend that, Supplier enablement to be considered since it might be a component that requires both the firms and its suppliers to work together and create a system that is efficient and mutually integrated. It is Is recommendation as well that both the company should look at a means of working together as a team and build systems that will allow easier e-procurement functionality. More so each party must solicit the support of the other either by sharing related costs, IT platform and resources. Despite internet connectivity being currently a challenge it may not last due to the advent of the fiber optic cable spreading across the country.

effects of computer literacy on the job performance of modern secretaries- Secretarial studies research project
This project attempted to identify the effects of computer literacy on the job performance of modern secretaries and to find out if secretaries without computer knowledge can be conveniently employed in a modern office.
The researcher used all the secretaries and some administrative staffs in Kisii Government Secretariat which is 75 staffs as the population of the study. However, because of the smallest of the population size, the researcher used the entire population of secretariat for the study. The instrument used for data collection was a 20-item structured questionnaire called ECLOSEC (effects of computer literacy on secretaries) which was prepared by the researcher.
The researcher in order to get the needed result distributed questionnaire to some staff of the CountyGovernment secretariat which was the area of study of this project, and their responses were converted. The researcher was able to found out that there are some effects of computer literacy on modern secretaries which are speed and accuracy, neatness, easy edition, formatting and saving of documents. Also that secretary without computer knowledge cannot be employed in a modern office.
Furthermore, the researcher agreed that the major problem of secretaries is the fear that computer has come to replace them because they know fully well that without computer knowledge they would not be able to do their work perfectly in a modern office. The researcher noticed that students are not taught word processing as a serious course and this has contributed to their failure in performing their job.
It was as a result of these findings, the researcher suggested that every secretary should try hard to become computer literate by going for the training so as to secure gainful employment in a modern office.

challenges faced by the Nyamira libraries in Kenya in selecting and acquiring resources- library science research project.
This study surveyed the challenges faced by the Nyamira libraries in Kenya in selecting and acquiring resources. The descriptive survey research method was adopted for the study. The population consisted of 30. Questionnaire and interview were used for data collection. Data collected from the questionnaire were analyzed using simple statistics (mean). None of the libraries under study was into a consortium with one another. However, the study revealed twelve challenges with cost as a major challenge of selection and acquisition of resources. The study recommended that the Nyamira libraries in Kenya should improve on the libraries budget in order to attain to the cost of resources electronically and for the training of staff that will handle the resources collection development. That the libraries should take a drastic initiative of acquiring resources through a consortium in order to enjoy the discount associated with consortium subscription.

Desgin of a model biogas- science lab technology
e main purpose of this project was an attempt to modulate and simulate two existing biogas plant, situated in Meru and evaluate how the process reacts to certain conditions regarding feeding, layout and substrate mixture. The main goal was to optimize the existing processes to better performance. Both the modeling and simulation were executed in Biogas with accordance to the real conditions at the plant in question. The simulation of each model was validated against data containing measurements of, CH4 yield, CH4 production. The data was obtained from each plant in accordance with scheduled follow ups. Both models were statistically validated for several predictions. Predictions of N-total and NH4-N concentration failed for some cases. Both plants were tested with new process lay outs, where promising results were obtained. The model was provided with a post-hygienization step to handle domestic tasks. The biogas model was provided with a dewatering unit, where 35% of the concentrate was recalculated back to the system. Both setups were configured to yield the highest CH4 production. This study suggests that Biogas can be a tool for predictions and optimizations of the biogas process.
