The Impact of Internet of Things in Manufacturing Management ()
ABSTRACT
The study investigated the impact of the Internet of Things in manufacturing management. Specifically, the study

in Camanov Ltd.; and to what extent IoT implementation
contributes to the saving of cost and time of the organization. The
research design is a survey. The population of this study consisted of all 141 staff of Camanov Ltd. Port
Harcourt. Since the population is not large,

questionnaire. The two research questions were analyzed using simple
percentages and all two hypotheses were tested using sample proportion statistics (Z test) at a 0.05
level of significance. The result showed that the Internet of Things has a significant impact on organizational efficiency in
Camanov Ltd. (Z = 4.73); and that the Internet of Things significantly contributes toward saving cost and time of the organization
Camanov Ltd (Z = 4.95). It was recommended that organizations should encourage
