This project aims to study into a critical factor behind DHL’s success as a freight transportation service provider: the price of its corporate shipping contracts. Contract bidding refers to the process of DHL submitting a tender to secure a corporate contract in order to provide its freight services to a company. To secure its shipping contracts, DHL has to go through several bidding rounds with competitors, which include major players such as UPS, Fedex and other companies in the same region. By discovering insights into the factors affecting the bidding price for its shipping contracts, this better allows DHL to understand the thought process and motivation behind the bidding results of its customers, across various industries as well as different countries, and potentially better prepares them for negotiation with their customers for future contract bidding rounds by offering better terms which are of greater concern specifically for different types of customers, thus enabling them to have a higher chance of earning contracts and reaping more profits.

Kivalogo.png

Kiva is an online crowdfunding platform which extends financial services in the form of loans to the poor and financially excluded people around the world, who are otherwise unable to raise funds from financial institutions and banks given their financial capacity and background. Since its inception, Kiva lenders have provided over $1 billion USD in loans to over 2 million people. This project provides a journey of starts with an overview of the business and the motivations and activities for people in Philippines taking up these loans, followed by kernel density analysis to observe how the intensity of spatial point patterns differ across the different islands and provinces, and lastly the implementation of Exploratory Spatial Data Analysis using measures of spatial autocorrelation and Local Indicators of Spatial Association (LISA) to gain insights into the impact of neighbouring areas and presence of clusters, by using Queen’s case contiguity-based weights, and 2 distance-based weighting methods, namely the K-Nearest Neighbour and the Inverse Distance Weighting.
