Case/Firm Strategy Analysis Project Description & Requirements

•
Formulating a research strategy: what is required, what are the sources, how are they accessed and how should our team proceed to gather the information?

•
Locating and using library sources of information: directories, CD-ROM and other databases (e.g., Lexis-Nexis, ABI/Inform), periodical indices, and industry surveys and outlooks published by a variety of organizations and current business periodicals (e.g., Wall Street Journal, Business Week, Fortune) must be used to provide depth to phase two of the project.

•
Using and locating non-library sources of information: the Internet/www can be used to access the home pages of commercial firms, government agencies (such as the Department of Commerce or the Securities & Exchange Commission), trade associations and brokerage firm reports for phase two of the project.

•
Organizing what appears to be unrelated data/information into a logical format and communicating it in a logical written form or style.

To satisfy the major research requirement of this course, each team will prepare, submit and present a set of recommended strategic actions to be taken by the firm that is the focus of their assigned case. The Case/Firm Strategy Project is to be completed in two parts that will be included in a single written report–following the requirements provided–and an oral presentation. For additional guidance as to format, refer to the Guidelines for Written Analyses in the course syllabus and information provided in this document and on BlackBoard.
The completed combined analysis and update report (including PowerPoint slides used in the presentation) must be submitted by the date noted in the Course Outline/Schedule.
Include a Table of Contents with the name of the team member responsible for completing each major sub-section
.

•
Part one of the project requires that students perform a 1brief analysis of information provided in the assigned case to provide background related to the firm’s external and competitive environments. This enables the team to [1] identify any external opportunities and threats facing the firm, [2] describe the firm’s competitors and their approaches to competing and [3] identify key success factors (KSFs) for the industry.

The next section of the part one analysis requires that a firm analysis be performed to [1] identify the firm’s strengths and weaknesses (the value of the firm’s resources, capabilities and competencies) relative to its competitors and key success factors and [2] identify immediate problems or opportunities facing the firm as well as decisions to be made as identified in the case.

Using the external and internal and external analyses as background, the team then will develop alternatives and make strategy-related recommendations. This requires that the team [1] identify alternatives available to the firm that will enable it to solve its problems, take advantage of opportunities and offset threats to its competitive success, [2] assess each alternative as to its viability by identifying the firm’s resource-based restrictions or advantages, in other words, identify any resource or capability gaps and [3] identify potential solutions to resource gaps (e.g., outsourcing, strategic alliances, joint ventures, acquisitions).

•
Part two of the project requires that each team revise or update the case and the team’s part one analysis and perform all analyses described in part one using new, updated information developed from outside research that brings the case up-to-date. This means that, if the case ends in 2010, all major events from 2010 through October 2013 should be included in the update to [1] identify any strategic actions taken by the firm since the time of the cae and the outcomes of those actions, [2] identify any external opportunities and threats facing the firm,
[3] describe the firm’s competitors and their approaches to competing (e.g., a five forces analysis) and [4] identify key success factors (KSFs) for the industry.

The next section of the analysis requires that teams complete an updated analysis—2010 to the present–to [1] identify the firm’s strengths and weaknesses (the value of the firm’s resources, capabilities and competencies) relative to its competitors and key success factors, [2] identify current problems or opportunities facing the firm as well as decisions that must be made as identified by student research and [3] provide a discussion and tables (or graphs) setting out the firm’s financial performance—including stock price and competitive performance—from the time of the case to the present date..

Using the updated external and internal analyses as a base, the team then will develop alternatives and make new strategy-related recommendations. This requires that the team [1] identify alternatives available to the firm that will enable it to solve its current problems, take advantage of current opportunities and offset current threats to its future competitive success identified as a result of research, [2] assess each alternative as to its viability by identifying the firm’s resource-based restrictions or advantages; in other words, identify any resource or capability gaps, [3] identify potential solutions to resource gaps (e.g., outsourcing, strategic alliances, joint ventures, acquisitions) and [4] make specific, detailed recommendations–including objectives, strategy and tactics, organizational changes, action steps, scheduling and related changes–that will enable the firm to solve the problems, take advantage of opportunities or make the decisions identified as a result of current research.

The summary (or background) analysis of the original case, the updated analysis and recommendations will be presented to the class.
A copy of the PowerPoint slides (3-to-a-page) used in the class presentation must be submitted when the firm’s presentation is made.

A comprehensive bibliography of all outside research sources of information must be provided for the phase two written report. It is required that students utilize current business periodicals (e.g., Wall Street Journal, Business Week, Fortune, New York Times) in addition to Internet-based sources to update information provided in the case. Sources must be cited throughout the report.
