This study presents a four-parameter generalization of the Laplace transform, here called the Gbenga Gideon (G.G.) integral transform (GGIT), with kernel pv^m 〖{e〗^(-qv^w t)}, and develops its operational calculus for the solution of third-order ordinary differential equations. Elementary transform pairs are derived for constant, power, exponential, trigonometric and hyperbolic functions, and the fundamental operational properties — linearity, first and second shifting, change of scale, differentiation, multiplication by the independent variable, Laplace–GGIT duality and convolution — are stated and proved. A compact formula for the transform of the n-th derivative is established, with the third-order specialization required for third-order initial-value problems singled out. The parameter choices through which the G.G. kernel reduces to thirty-eight named transforms from the recent literature, including the Laplace, Sumudu, Aboodh, Elzaki, Sawi, Shehu and Sadik transforms, are tabulated. The method is then applied to third-order constant-coefficient equations with trigonometric and exponential-polynomial forcing terms. The GG Integrals Transform solutions were bench-marked against key existing transforms (Laplace, Aboodh, and Elzaki) and the results were shown to agree.
