XYZ Company routinely faced penalties imposed by the United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for non-compliance in depositing federal withholding taxes related to the managed benefits plans for its clients.

Desiring to eliminate penalties by complying 100% with the IRS guidelines, XYZ Company considered various solutions. Finally, XYZ Company implemented a Robotic Process Automation (RPA) solution using the open source tool—taskt—to achieve 100% compliance in depositing federal withholding taxes and eliminate …

Factor Market Rivalry, Factor Market Myopia, And Strategic Blind Spots: The Case Of The Truck Driver Labor Market, Stephen A. Lemay, Dave Mcmahon, John Batchelor, Batchelor Keller
Journal of Transportation Management
This article explores the relationships among factor market rivalry, factor market myopia, and strategic blind spots in the context of the labor market for truck drivers. Levitt (1960) developed the concept of market myopia to explain how managers often overlooked key competitors in product markets. Trucking managers might do the same thing in looking at competition for truck drivers. Factor market myopia and strategic blind spots help to explain how this happens, and how it becomes more severe in the context of factor market rivalry. In the trucking industry, factor market myopia and strategic blind spots may mean that managers …

Selected Railroad Contributions To The United States: An Economic And Historical Review, Brian Gurney, Joshua P. Hill
Journal of Transportation Management
Railroads were instrumental in opening the western U.S. in the 19th century. The main incentive provided for the railroads to connect San Francisco, CA and Omaha, NB were land grants out of the public domain. In a period of 21 years (1850-1871), 174 million acres were patented (deeded) primarily to what would become four major railroads. Many acres were returned to the government, some were sold and many others were retained or disposed of through holding companies. This paper emphasizes an oft-overlooked reality: that in many cases the railroads leveraged these land grants in support of the growth and prosperity …

R&D Project Portfolio Selection With Multiple Stakeholders, Wenqi Lian
Dissertations and Theses Collection (Open Access)
Research and Development (R&D) is time consuming, expensive and risky; yet product life cycles are shortening and competition is fierce.

The two essays in the dissertation build stylized analytical models to examine R&D project portfolio selection in two different settings, academia and industry respectively. The models explicitly acknowledge the different information, goals and operational decisions of the stakeholders. In the first essay, we study a two-stage funding …

Shopping Activity At Warehouse Club Stores And Its Competitive And Network-Density Implications, Stanley Frederick W.T. Lim, Elliot Rabinovich, Sungho Park, Minha Hwang
School of Business: Faculty Scholarship
Warehouse club (WC) retailers have typically expanded to new markets using stand‐alone stores, rather than pursuing dense store networks as other (non‐WC) retailers have in the past. While this strategy generates operating efficiencies, it also imposes high travel costs on households to shop, which calls into question WC stores’ resilience to spatial competition from stores operating other formats. We examine this phenomenon by using data on households’ shopping activity across markets served by Costco Wholesale stores. Specifically, we evaluate these stores’ resilience to spatial competition by estimating the share of households’ expenditures relative to travel costs to shop at the …
