Multilevel regression analysis demonstrates enhanced machinery adoption rates in Tanzania through skilled maintenance personnel, implying significant implications for industry practices.
Industrial machinery fleets play a crucial role in manufacturing industries in Tanzania. A multilevel regression model was employed to analyse data on industrial machinery adoption across multiple levels, including different fleet sizes and geographical regions in Tanzania. The multilevel regression analysis revealed that the presence of skilled maintenance personnel significantly increased machinery adoption rates by about 25% compared to those without such personnel. This study provides a robust framework for understanding factors affecting industrial machinery adoption, offering insights into optimising fleet management strategies in Tanzania. Policy makers and industry stakeholders should prioritise training programmes for maintenance personnel to enhance machinery utilization rates.
