The objectives were to identify time management problems, find appropriate solutions relating to issues, design a method to implement the solutions, and recommend the use of more sophisticated machinery and chemicals. Theoretical review used to analyse problems. Qualitative method was used to collect data. Data was gathered through a semi-structured interview with the company’s operations manager. The interview data showed solutions and recommendations for problems facing the organisation, which include scheduled operations time, following the Health and Safety Act 2015, ensuring customer satisfaction, conducting training and inductions programmes for new employees, and recommending sophisticated machinery and chemicals.
