Assignment 4 – Case Study 40%
This component of the assessment involves conducting a waste assessment and preparing a
draft waste management plan for an individual facility or workplace. The outcome of your
investigation should be a report that explains the specific waste management issues relevant
to the site under investigation and provide practical recommendations on how waste can be
reduced over time. Your recommendations must relate back to the data and information you
have gathered.

Case Study

write a minimum of 600 words in length defending your responses to the following questions.
 Do you think this was a financial audit, a project audit, or a management audit? Why?
 Was the purpose of the audit to exert cybernetic control, go/no-go control, or postproject control? Explain?
 Given the comments in the case, do you surmise that the reason for the audit was to improve future projects or to ascertain the reasons for not meeting the project’s goals, and if the latter, its direct goals or ancillary goals?
 Do you think the GAO was the best choice for an audit team? Would it have the trust of the project personnel?
 Given the minimal elements of a project audit present in Section 12.2, which element(s) would have been primary to the audit team? Why? Which section would have contained the “underlying problems” reported in the case?
Your assignment must:

Case Study-Director’s Request for PCs Using MS table, MS Acces, MS PowerPoint

 

Case Study Instructions
Director’s Request for PCs
Completion of the Case Study will utilize (1) an MS Word Table, (2) an MS Access database, and (3) an MS PowerPoint Presentation

You will meet the Director’s requirements that are described on this page by creating and submitting a Word Table (Part 1), an Access Database (Part 2); and a PowerPoint Presentation (Part 3). These 3 assignments are due on separate dates. See the Course Schedule for due dates.

NOTE: the standard applications to use for these 3 assignments are those within Microsoft Office. MS Access is available only in the Professional OFFICE package. If you are a MAC user OR if you have absolutely no way to use a machine on which MS Access has been loaded, you may download and use OpenOffice/Open Libre – for the database project only. Please inform your instructor if you are going to use Open Office for the database assignment.
Instructions for installing Open Office can be found in “Open Office – Database Alternative for Mac OS X” under the Office Resources topic.

Case Study – Director’s Requirements
Your office has outgrown its old desktop machines and is in the market for new PCs, but would like some guidance on what to purchase. The Director wants to ensure that the office obtains PC machines that meet the requirements stated below. You, as an employee of a small educational company, have been tasked to buy 5 PCs and associated equipment for the office. You only need to determine the specifications for ONE PC, not five. The office will likely buy five of the same computer model/configurations you propose.
The Director has defined some capabilities that the PCs will need to have to ensure optimal performance. These tasks and system needs are collectively the office’s requirements. The requirements are as follows:

1. Create documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and send and receive email.

2. Participate in online video conferences, web courses and forums (the Director is a part-time professor at a local university).

3. Create and edit audio and video files and share video and audio files via emails, instant messaging, and in chat rooms via mobile devices.

4. Create small databases to manage all audio, video and photo data.

5. Take high quality digital photos and videos and download them to the PC as well as scan and edit the photos and videos. Manipulate/edit various image and video formats (in the relevant table, please specify at least two image and two video formats that can be accommodated by your solution(s)). .

6. Print documents to include photo quality color printing.

7. Manipulate pdf files, including editing pdfs, conversion from pdf to Word and vice versa.

8. Transfer information (audio, video and photos) between PC machines.

9. Manage the Director’s schedule by using an online calendar and day planner.

10. Utilize the internet to make online purchases, conduct banking services and research new audio, video and photo editing methods using a broadband service (in the relevant table, please specify service provider).

11. Connect all required peripheral devices you deem necessary to the system unit.

12. Protect the PC and all components from dirty electrical power including under voltage (brownout or blackout) and overvoltage (power surge or spike).

13. Manage and protect the system, data, and information while working on the Internet including scanning all incoming emails, email attachments, and files downloaded from Web-based sources; firewall, virus and spyware (security) protection; and checking websites for phishing and fraudulent activities.

Your specification must address each of the 13 items listed in the requirements.
Case Study- Director’s Request for PCs using MS Word Table, MS Access, and MS PowerPoint

Case Study – Using MS Office 2010 / 2013 / 365

Please use the document “READ FIRST – Case Study Instructions – Director’s Requirements” for each of the parts described below.

Part 1: Specifications Table (MS Word)
For a review of the complete rubric used in grading this exercise, click on the Assignments tab, then on the title Case Study Part 1 – PC Specs (Word)– click on Show Rubrics if the rubric is not already displayed.

For the case study provided to you, create MS Word tables that identify and contain the hardware and software requirements to meet the director’s requirements. The MS Word document in its final form will include 6 MS Word tables. It will include a two-paragraph narrative summary that classifies the user type and identifies the PC category that will be recommended. The specific instructions are found in the table at the end of this file.

Students are expected to conduct external research to adequately address all aspects of the assignment requirements. It is suggested that students use a computer manufacturer’s site (i.e., Apple, Dell, Toshiba) to help in identifying all the components needed to meet the director’s requirements. Remember, although there are 5 computers to be purchased, you are required to configure only one, as the same one may be purchased for all 5 employees. Any outside sources should be correctly cited in APA style at the end of the table. Students will need to include specific requirements from the case study to show why each item is being recommended. Each element listed below must be incorporated into the assignment. Omissions will result in loss of points.

Make and model and description are required, when at all possible.. For example, if the solution suggested is a 32” IBM Monitor, say so. Do not just say monitor because that does not provide sufficient information for a purchase. It is not necessary, for example, to identify the make and model of a USB port.

You must also consider components that may be a part of a machine or device. For example, the System Unit table will require elements such as USB ports. The monitor and mouse are typically separate devices on a desktop, but on a laptop or tablet they are often integrated. You should identify the various forms of input and output for your computer(s) on the Hardware table, whether they are separate devices or integrated elements.

There should be sufficient detail in this case study for procurement/purchasing personnel to buy the systems. Details are crucial.

Don’t focus on web references as to where the equipment can be found, although you may include your source(s). Focus on a solution to specific requirements.

Do not ‘number’ requirements in your table, even though they are numbered in the “Case Study – Director’s Requirements’ document. In many cases there are several requirements expressed in a single numbered listing. It’s important that you are clear about which requirement is addressed by a specific piece of hardware or software.

All identified hardware and software and relevant requirements must be listed in the tables. Mentioning an item or a requirement in the two paragraph narrative is perfectly ok, but it must also be in the tables.

Additional information:

You are supposed to tie back your recommended specs to all of the original requirements. Spell out the requirements that apply to your selection of hardware, etc and do so in the tables. Your customer would not appreciate having to go guess as to which requirement is being met by your items.
Suggested layout for the tables (other layouts are possible):
Four columns: Group (Input, Output, Etc), Device, Requirement; then one row for each Device. Arrange your tables so that you don’t leave lots of blank rows. See the Sample Tables for suggested layouts.
Include details where it makes sense. For example:
Scanner. This isn’t enough information to tell what the device is capable of. The customer wants to know how it’s “tricked out”. What model is it? Is it an All-In-One or standalone (why?)? How much RAM does it have? Does it have wireless capability? Can it accept camera memory cards? What resolution can it handle?
Adapter Cards. Your customer wants to create and edit high quality photos and videos. This usually means you’ll need a beefed-up graphics adapter. Be prepared to answer these questions: What model is it? How much RAM does it have? Is it integrated or discrete? This means you need to understand a little about graphics cards. Integrated means it is a chip (not an actual card) that is part of the motherboard. Typically, integrated video is ok but not as powerful as discrete video cards. These are actual adapter cards that have lots more circuitry and dedicated RAM than the smaller integrated chips. So they are more powerful and better for the customer’s requirements.
Monitor. While the software applications actually enable video creation and editing, the hardware enables the “high quality” requirement. You can hook up a display to the standard VGA port on the computer. However, the newer machines come with HDMI ports, which enables High Definition displays. If the recommended desktop or laptop has an HDMI port the user can get full 1080p on the video display unit. These specifications may satisfy the customer’s requirement to create and edit high quality digital photos and videos.
Ports. Everybody needs ports, right? I just described an important one – HDMI. How about Ethernet, SATA, FireWire, USB (2.0 or 3.0), media cards? Think of the data transfer/exchange requirements and what kind of speeds are necessary to make them work effectively.
External Storage. The customer may want users to exchange data quickly. Are CDs or DVDs the way to go? What about USB flash memory cards? Or some kind of network storage?
Here are the specific instructions:

Part 2: Provider Database (MS Access)

As you recall, data is a collection of facts (numbers, text, even audio and video files) that is processed into usable information. Much like a spreadsheet, a database is a collection of such facts that you can then slice and dice in various ways to extract information or make decisions. However, the advantage and primary use of a database over a spreadsheet is its ability to handle a large volume of data and yet allow for quick access to the information that is desired.

Databases are everywhere now and impact our lives in a multitude of ways. It can accurately be said that “your life is in a database” or, more accurately, in multiple databases, and information about you (a retrieval of facts about you) is easily accessible. Your shopping history, credit history, medical history, even your driving history, is stored in one or more databases.

This exercise will introduce you to the basic building blocks of any database – fields, records, and files (also called tables). Although you will create a database with a single table containing a small amount of data about computer component Providers, the more applicable use of databases involves the creation of many tables linked together with a common field or “key.” Regardless of the size of the database, the data is stored in the same way – in fields which are combined to create a record. And those records are stored in a file or table. The data is entered into the field via a data entry form, and the information is extracted (to answer a particular question or need) via reports and/or queries. Note that Access uses the Field Size parameter in Design View to limit the number of characters or digits in a given field. Specific instructions for the project can be found in the table below.

Create a provider database and related reports and queries to capture contact information for potential PC component providers that might be used to purchase the equipment your specified in your MS Word project – the PC specifications..

This MS Access database assignment has the following parts:

1. a simple database table to hold provider contact information; some of the required fields in the table require that a Caption be added to the field characteristics. The Caption will be displayed in the report that is to be generated.
2. a simple database form that can be used to enter data into the database table;
3. two simple database reports that can used to present the data as information; and
4. a separate MS Word document answering questions about the database.

All aspects of the assignment will be evaluated according to the following criteria and overall professional, business-like appearance. This would include clear readability and formatting for both screen and print-based output.

• Mark at least one Provider as a Preferred Provider based on the criteria you identified in the Preferred Provider field.
It is important to complete all data entry prior to moving on to create the report. You should also use the table to manually review and audit all entries to ensure accuracy and consistency prior to report setup. If find any data entry errors or inconsistencies, simply go back the item in the form and make the appropriate corrections. Missing data or including data that should be ignored will result in a deduction. 1 When you are finished, the Provider Information Table should contain all the contact information for the providers. You may need to create fictitious information for contact names –other field information should be available from the provider’s company website. For YTD Orders simply input fictitious values. Marking at least one provider as Preferred should be based on criteria for YTD Orders (those that exceed a specified YTD amount that you determine). That criteria must be included in the field Description for Preferred Provider.
The form will automatically populate the Provider ID for you because this is your primary key. Provider’s Company Name will be your five providers.

Our course textbook describes the case study of Genie. For this week’s discussion, consider this case in light of Genie’s inability, after being rescued, to fully catch-up to the enormous language growth seen in children her age not tragically isolated as she was, what do you think this implies about the existence of a sensitive period for language development? Second, let’s talk about the ethics of this situation. The work with Genie following her rescue from a childhood of brutal deprivation raised controversy regarding whether her best interests were considered foremost in decisions about who would provide her care. Share you thoughts here about that situation, including both pros and cons related to the decision about where she would reside.

Holden Case Study

 
Assessment Description:
The purpose of this case study analysis is to develop students’ skills in both theory and application as it
applies to the learning outcomes of GB500, Business Perspectives. This will enable students to apply business perspective theories and concepts relating to a ‘real world’ business scenario. Through this
case study, students will be researching and deliberating on a macro-environmental factor that has impacted severely on an Australian company, Holden.
Scenario:
“Australians love their cars. And for much of the past six decades the cars they’ve loved most have been home-grown. In that time, Australia has been one of a select group of countries with the capacity to
design, engineer and build its own cars. For 60 years that capacity has been a cornerstone of the
country’s industrial capacity. Now all that is about to change.
When the new Coalition Government made it clear it wasn’t prepared to spend more money assisting the
car industry, the big manufacturers Holden and Toyota said goodbye”

As an individual assignment, students are required to apply a case study to prepare a 2000 word report addressing the following:

A. Explain how external environmental scanning could have alerted Holden to change its business
strategies and avoid business closure in Australia?

B. Using readings from week 2 (“critical reflection”), demonstrate how critical reflection can bring forth
managerial foresight for Holden to remain competitive in their business in Australia.

C. Critically analyse how innovative thinking and intrapreneurial orientation could have saved the Holden
Manufacturing Group.

Your Case Study Analysis should follow professional report structure:
Title Page
Executive Summary
Table of Content
Table of Figures
Introduction:
Industry Overview
Organisation’s background
Body:
The three questions for report discussion
Conclusion
Appendices
Reference List

NB: Title page, Table of Content, Table of Figures, Executive Summary, Reference List &
Appendices does not count towards word limit of your report

You must use a minimum of 10 references. These must comprise:
• At least 6 academic articles
• Up to 2 text books (including the prescribed text: BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT: A market-oriented perspective written by Hans Eibe Sørensen)
• Up to 2 other authoritative sources of your choice. E.g. quality newspaper or professional journal, government or NGO website. Please avoid the use of corporate websites as these tend to be promotional and not authoritative.
•Wikipedia and other ‘popular’ or non-academic sources are not to be used.

Firstly read the articles and watch the DVD provided below, however this will not be sufficient to complete this assessment task and students are required to research independently to justify their analyses.

Case study

CarMax –
It will focus on applying course concepts by re-examining an experience within an organization in which you were an active member. (The organization is “Used car dealer – CarMAX)

Part 1: Case Description (investigation stage)
You will organize and conduct the Discovery stage, in which you identify a significant issue that requires an organizational response involving key decision makers.
You will research and explain the context for the case, focusing on the organizational frames and necessary background information.
You will identify possible solutions and possible outcomes, and provide supporting rationale.

Part 2: Case Analysis and Solution (consulting stage)
Here you will select and explain the main issue and underlying causes, and how you acquired this information and conclusion. You will review the potential responses (solutions) and recommend one or more, using sound logic and theory.

Four frames:
Structural frame:
1. We might see an emphasis on goals – that don’t mention people
2. Division and specialization might be very clear
3. Coordination and control may be important
4. Problem solving – looks at structure
5. Technical qualifications, not personal qualifications
6. Other perspectives (frames) may receive less attention

Human Resource frame:
1. We might see people as a reason for the organization
2. Work may be designed so that people can see the meaningful whole of what
they do – how they fit.
3. Individual wishes and needs might get attention
4. There is emphasis on developing people
5. Compensation might reflect “people emphasis”
6. HR has a human resources strategy
7. Supervision may focus on people and relationships
8. Problems are solved by considering people and relationships
9. Groups and teams are used
10. Communication is relatively plentiful, and both horizontal and vertical

Political Frame:
1. Important decisions focus on who gets what
2. Look for bargaining, negotiations, stakeholders
3. Is this frame where we might look at ethical challenges? Why?
4. During stressful times – more politics
5. Do all goals originate at the top of the organization?

Symbolism:
1. What something means is most important
2. Symbols overcome uncertainty and ambiguity
3. Symbols create patterns of meaning and purpose
4. Symbols are visible parts of culture; culture defines
groups and organizations with boundaries.
