Rental vehicle logistics and fieldwork performance in public institutions: A case of National Institute of Statistics of Rwanda (NISR)

Abstract

This study intended to conduct a study to examine the problem associated with rental vehicles logistic and field performance in NISR. The specific objectives to investigate the effect of quality assurance of the rental vehicles on the field work performance of NISR, to determine the impact of on-time delivery of rental vehicles on field work performance of NISR, to identify problems associated with rental vehicles logistics and field work performance in NISR, to examine the relationship between rental vehicle logistics and fieldwork performance of NISR. Descriptive research design with data was applied to a sample of 180 respondents extracted from 381 employees of National Institute of Statistics. The researcher used purposive sampling technique to selected 180 respondents, the researcher has used both questionnaire and interview data from the field. Thus, the findings have shown that there is a relationship between maintenance and repair and productivity (p = .903 and sig = .000), between driver behavior and skills and productivity (p = .822 and sig = .000) between driver behavior and skills and value efficiency (p = .801 and sig = .000) between driver skills and skills and on time delivery (p = .757 and sig = .000) between fuel management and productivity (p = .934 and sig = .000) between fuel management and quality assurance (p = .910 and sig = .000) between fuel management and on time delivery (p = .862 and sig = .000) because all calculated p-values are a lot much less than 0.01 levels of significance. Therefore, it implies that there is a relationship between rental vehicle logistics and fieldwork performance in NISR, Rwanda
