Case project identification

This report is about improving the playground and barbeque area of Alexandria Park. They are planning to modify the barbeque area at the Park of Alexandria. They wanted to establish the design of the concept. In the next 10 years then wanted to modify as well as update more than the 60 parks over the area of Sydney, from the little pocket parks and gardens to huge local parks and gardens. They are interested in understanding who utilizes the recent parks, what works as well as what does not work. They also liked to listen to some ideas and views about the new parks and playgrounds. Alexandria Park is a very important location for the local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. As the upgrade part then the city would also work with the knowledge holders of culture, the community members of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, and local students of schools to establish the strategy of cultural design that would train how First Nations stories are celebrated in the garden or playground. In this project, the infrastructure and heavy construction project types had been selected. The risk that comes in this project is management (organizational and leadership) risk, technical risk, physical risk, and logistic risk. The requirements of the construction are an evaluation of the progress, performance of the schedule, actions for the contractor before real commencement, contracts management, and activities for the employer during the cycle of the project. For controlling the construction of this project some best practices are setting the scope clearly of the project, concentrating on the details, anticipating the setbacks of the project, the modification should be done according to the requirements, and communicating regularly (Plan, 2015).

 

Integration management plan

Project objectives

The objective of improving the playground and area of barbeque in Alexandria Park is to modify and upgrade the area. The Alexandria Park had been developed for the perfect sports as well as a picnic.

Scope

Their scope is that in the next 10 years they wanted to modify as well as update more than the 60 parks over the area of Sydney, from the little pocket parks and gardens to huge local parks and gardens.

Business case

This report is about improving the playground and barbeque area of Alexandria Park. They are planning to modify the barbeque area at the Park of Alexandria. They wanted to establish the design of the concept. In the next 10 years then wanted to modify as well as update more than the 60 parks over the area of Sydney, from the little pocket parks and gardens to huge local parks and gardens. They are interested in understanding who utilizes the recent parks, what works as well as what does not work. They also liked to listen to some ideas and views about the new parks and playgrounds. Alexandria Park is a very important location for the local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. As the upgrade part then the city would also work with the knowledge holders of culture, the community members of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, and local students of schools to establish the strategy of cultural design that would train how First Nations stories are celebrated in the garden or playground. In this project, the infrastructure and heavy construction project types had been selected.

Risk

The risks that are coming in this project are:

Management (organizational and leadership) risk: The management risk involves the wrong selection of the team of the project, there is inadequate communication infrastructure is a car, no document processors, project manual and processes, Unsatisfactory control, poor quality control, lack of experienced persons in the team of the project, and inability to take the time appropriate actions. If there are some failures to know some specific hazards then some steps in the risk management could not be executed for the risk. It is extremely suggested to consider the risk before starting this kind of construction project.

Technical risk: Technical risk includes anything that bounces from making the product that is needed by the customer. It could involve resources uncertainty, the uncertainty of materials availability, incomplete design, and inadequate investigation of the site. This risk could usually happen if there are variations in the scope as well as the requirement of the project and when there are errors in the designs.

Physical risk: Low-quality procurement or Inadequate resources, weather conditions like cold temperature, heavy rainfall, extremely hot, materials non-availability like quantity and quality, Unsecure working conditions, theft, wastage on fire, and many more.

Logistic risk: Logistic risk could be considered in some form from every market supply-chain view. This risk involves the transportation availability facilities and the construction equipment availability like construction machinery, labor, spare parts, and fuel. Without locating all these issues of the logistics that the risk could become big and it could also be loss in the project and the project could also be delayed (Municipality, 2012).

Constraints challenges

Cost overruns- Various projects of construction face miserably if it comes to meeting their starting estimates of the cost. On the worldwide range, the overheads of the average cost in the project of construction initiates at 16.5%. The individual project might exceed or extend their project by 175%. If the project is used then the rest could be higher the cost overruns. Project the scale and complexity word specifically define your capability to satisfy the requirements of the original cost. The problems that could come are:

  • Unrealistic measurements due to ignorance, deception, or naivety
  • Material amount escalation, external risk, and adverse conditions of the weather
  • Scope changes, demand of the client, and starting the design of the project.
  • Performance error and inadequate project management

Schedule overruns and unrealistic deadlines- This problem is usually in the project management of construction as the budget overruns and may stem from the reasons similar variety that involves poor management and unforeseen issues. The important ones or lack of preliminary analyses and forecasting. It could give result in unworkable deadlines as well as unrealistic expectations. When the limits of the project time hours are so tight and they were not in line or sequence by the work actual score then the manager is probably to face some other negative impacts or issues besides the overruns of the schedule. The unreasonable Deadlines course employee burnout, the morale of a low team, and excess stress. The influence of performance quality as well as productivity. Therefore To deliver the project on schedule as well as establish realistic deadlines than one had to revise your entire strategy of time management.

Inadequate risk management- It is already mentioned that the failure to control the risk leads to schedule and budget overruns. In the construction projects, the risk management is a huge challenge that deserves special outlining as the risks businesses face in this construction industry are more costly as well as diverse than in others-

  • Unknown conditions of this site
  • Economic crisis and issues
  • Security risk that outcomes in injuries and accidents
  • Issues by suppliers and subcontractors
  • Inclement weather and natural disasters
  • Problems with team coordination
  • Escalation in cost of materials
  • Shortages of workforce and turnover of the staff

There are some of the risks that the manager of construction should take into account before starting the real work. Otherwise, they had to suffer from the low-performance quality, stakeholder issues and conflicts, and constant delays that could also decrease the chance of a successful project. Therefore all the projects are unique, the security and number of factors that could threaten their completion depend to a huge exceed. To deal with issues well then you must be required to obtain an approach of methodological to the risk management (Sears et al., 2015).

Requirements

Get the right people or train your team- The industry of the construction could experience a lack of labor shortage. When you start the project then you must confirm that you have to take the right people. Also, give the correct people the correct responsibilities and jobs and confirm your crew or dream is clear by their expectations on the quality of construction. One should spend their time with the team to train them. It is because training is very important to effectiveness. For the supervisor, the training required principles of sound management and techniques to maintain the project running easily and smoothly. If supervisors assist their team members to master the critical skills then one would see the advantage in productivity in terms of their project.

Invest in technology- Now for successful construction projects technology is very important and one could also say it is the key to construction. For many organizations and industries, construction investment in technology will seem intimidating or even impossible. The reason for this is the convincing fear their workforce to get concerned regarding it being hard to obtain these technologies. But the technologies do not have to be finished with their innovative products for your processes of work. Investing in the correct technology said is the chance to set you apart from the other organizations.

Understand the specification of the project- Some of the persons start by laying down the plan of the project and it is very important to know about the plan of the project. The contractor is required to fully understand the specification as well as the standards that had been set by the team and the customer. All the standards and the specification must reflect the finished outcomes of the project that had been made (Harris et al., 2021).

Discuss with the team- It is very clear to give the ideas of the towers to your team and how things will be scheduled and what had been expected should be clear to the team members. A very good suggestion is a project kick-off meeting to do the discussions.

Lesson learned discussion

It had been concluded from the integrated management plan that the objective is to improve the playground and area of the barbeque of Alexandria Park. It had been established for the perfect picnic as well as sports. The toilets were also constructed in the park. It will be designed according to the plan and requirements. The plan and scope are to modify 60 parks in the area of Sydney city in the next 10 years. The risks that are coming up in this project are Management risk, physical risk, technical risk, and logistical risk. The constant challenges that are coming in this project are Cost overruns, schedule overruns and unrealistic deadlines, and inadequate risk management. The requirements for this project are to invest in the technology, discussed by the team members, get the correct people or train your crew or team,  and Understand the specification of the project. As the upgrade part then the city would also work with the knowledge holders of culture, the community members of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, and local students of schools to establish the strategy of cultural design that would train how First Nations stories are celebrated in the garden or playground. In this project, the infrastructure and heavy construction project types had been selected. The risk that comes in this project is management (organizational and leadership) risk, technical risk, physical risk, and logistic risk. The requirements of the construction are the evaluation of the progress, performance of the schedule, actions for the contractor before real commencement, contracts management, and activities for the employer during the cycle of the project. For controlling the construction of this project some best practices are setting the scope clearly of the project, concentrating on the details, anticipating the setbacks of the project, the modification should be done according to the requirements, and communicating regularly.

 

 

Change management plan

Reason for the change

The change management plan had been developed for improving the playground and barbeque area of Alexandria Park. In this plan, they need to develop the design of the concept. In the next 10 years, they also needed to update as well as modify more than 60 parks in the region of the city of Sydney. The change management plan had been established as they wanted to give many other facilities to the people. They also wanted to know some views and suggestions from the other team members regarding the playgrounds and parks. The change had been considered because they want to design a new map and a new design for the same area. Alexandria Park is a very important location for the local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. As the upgrade part then the city would also work with the knowledge holders of culture, the community members of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, and local students of schools to establish the strategy of cultural design that would train how First Nations stories are celebrated in the garden or playground (Birss et al., 2016).

Phase Stakeholder Change type Impacts Actions
Design Engineering or design consultant There are the changes in the codes and regulations that are the reason the change is done on the project site and redevelopment is occur. The impact will be that the design rework will be done. Better design control, and extreme buildability in the design.
Construction Subcontractors or the contractors The defect of quality can come while taking the materials. Orders of change, design change, and rework of site. Quality control

Coordinated drawings and documents

Daily and regular logs

Specifications User, owner, client, or architect Changes to needs like project scope, brief of design, and specification of the project. Changes in the construction process and design. Give detailed specification document before bidding

Benefits from the change

The change management plan had been established for improving the playgrounds barbeque area at Alexandria Park because they wanted to assess as well as understand the requirement and the change impact. They want to design another map for the parks and playgrounds. They also want to do changes in the regulations and codes that are done at the site of the project. The rework of the site should be done according to the requirements and schedule. The stakeholders that are involved in this are our design consultant, sub-contractor, user, client, architect, and contractors. Through the change management plan, they could align the resources inside the business to support the change. The change management plan also manages the diverse change cost. It could also decrease the time required to execute the change. The change management plan will be done according to the staff and helps the staff members to understand the process of the change. After the change, Alexandria Park will look very well and perfectly designed. Therefore the change is needed in this project.

Case study 1

Monitoring of working hours and efficiency included in those hours

First and foremost, GPS trackers could be used for tracking the drivers and developing an understanding regarding how their work is going on, since it is very tough and exhausting for drivers to complete a whole tour, one more driver or a guide should be appointed so that the work will get divided and there will not be much pressure on one person only.

Use of consultative process for systems and procedures

Every driver will be made aware of the use of GPS devices on vehicles, and if they feel fine regarding the same. After the difficulties of drivers were assessed regarding regards to them not being able to finish their job effectively, it will be their choice whether they want to add one more person either as a driver or guide for helping them in finishing their job. Before application, each staff member will be properly trained and fully energized (Li et al., 2020).

Measures were taken for preventing the hygiene issues

  • Every vehicle will be taken for professional auto repairing as well as inspection.
  • The professional car engineer will be summoned for regular inspection.
  • Application of regulations regarding food safety as well as hygiene will be done by each staff member.
  • Training will be provided to staff for complying with the standards of hygiene.
  • Rewards, as well as fines, will be set, and the staff members will be able to report each other for not obeying the rules.
  • Some of the tour fees will be refunded to customers if any kind of hygiene issues will be reported by them

Involved delegation process

  • A meeting will be conducted with all the staff members regarding the new work plans.
  • If anyone will have any questions or problems regarding the new changes, they will be addressed.
  • All responsibilities in line with the vehicles, like cleaning as well as inspection will be of the drivers.
  • The guides will have to manage the routes of the tour and the time to be spent at each spot.
  • The team involved in the preparation of food will pay attention to the suppliers, hygiene as well as the offering needs of different customers.
  • It will be the duty of the guide to ensure the issues regarding the safety of any customer.

Yes, the specification of the new job will have to be provided in writing, at least 6 of such specifications will be written.

Estimation of budget and determining whether training will be required for accommodating new jobs

The direct cost of estimation involves the salary cost of the new tour, inspection cost of vehicles, material cost (paper printing, new hygiene qualified equipment), and repair costs. While the indirect cost will involve the HR cost, office cost, or the non-operation losses during this time of adjustment (He et al., 2020).

Yes, there will be the need for pieces of training. Some professional guidance will be needed by the rivers and hygiene study class by the team of food preparation. But the newly hired guides, need to know every spot of the complete tour, which will be already offered to them for studying before work.

Ways in which daily operation won’t get impacted due to proposed changes

  • The day-to-day operations won’t get impacted since everything is planned and executed systematically and things will not add more responsibilities but is a delegation of appropriate responsibilities to each staff member.

Case study 2

Nature of complaint

The nature of the complaint here seems to be that of sexual harassment. Since it has been clear from what Elena told that she gets silent offensive remarks from her supervisor very frequently, she also noticed him stalking her on numerous occasions after the work and he also ensure that he is working the same shifts as her.

A procedure that should be followed for receiving a complaint

  • In the first place, Elena should be reassured that she is being taken seriously.
  • All the evidence provided by Elens will be collected
  • Changing the shifts of Elena and her supervisor.
  • Investigating whether her complaint is real, by checking the surveillance camera or inquiring the office staff (Siuta & Bergman, 2019).

Standard procedure for investigating a complaint

  • Assuring Elena’s supervisor, that a fair investigation will take place on behalf of the accuser and the accused.
  • Interviewing all the main witnesses in this matter and asking open-ended questions along with seeking facts that approve or disapprove the allegations made by the employee.
  • Interviewing supervisor, applying the same respectful approach with him as accorded with the accuser.
  • Consulting with the attorney for making sure that the whole situation is looked upon reasonably and purely based on the collected pieces of evidence.
  • Make sure that the attorney also supports your direction.
  • Deciding whether this incident of sexual harassment took place, is based on documentation as well as advice from attorneys and colleagues.
  • Changing a reporting assignment if required.
  • Assuring the employees that no incidents like this occurs by follow-up, and documentation of that follow-up, with the employee who filed the original complaint, keeping all the documentation separate from the personal file.

Legal responsibilities as a manager

As a manager, it is my responsibility to understand completely the act of sex discrimination along with other laws on discrimination, and sexual harassment, and should also make sure that the development of a written policy is done, that prohibits sexual harassment and assure employees of a safe workplace. The complaint should also be immediately reported to the EEO officer (Hardies, 2019).

 

 

Case study 3

A systematic approach for investigation areas

The areas that are to be investigated are the operational issues, meal servicing, quality of meals, one-on-one conversations with the sous chef and the head chef regarding the lack of equipment capacity they say have been faced by them, and conversations with the front-of-house office.

A systematic approach for the same will be –

  • Interviewing all the staff members regarding the issues in their specific areas individually.
  • Take a note of the reviews of the customers and the problems they have been facing.
  • Trying to understand their problems and discussion of best possible solutions for the same problems.
  • Implementation of the solutions in a systematic manner.

Solutions for limitations

Since the budget is still 5 months away, the potential solution will be to buy this equipment on credit or rent them for some time, until and unless the equipment is acquired.

Aspects to be investigated in food as well as beverages service areas

In the food as well as beverages section, the quality of meals is to be inspected and since it is bad, what are the reasons for the same. The lack of some equipment capacity and other issues faced by chefs and the investigation of complaints regarding the meal services (Phucharoen & Sangkaew, 2020).

Details of staff involved

Details of staff that are involved in this process include:

Operational staff – for operational issues

Kitchen staff- in quality and preparation of food.

Waiters – regarding the delays in service of food.

Front of house or F & B staff – according to whom everything is going normal.

 

 

Case study 4

Suggestions for an effective implemented and detailed system for each department

A meeting should be conducted with the manager as well as supervisor, and the new set up policies, as well as the procedure, should be discussed for all the departments involving each product as well as services and should also be enforced strictly for each staff member.

HR: a full-time staff needs to be hired, the number of part-time staff should be decreased in each department of the hotel. Because of the new management, there should be re-interview as well as observation of all the staff members, and only those who are suitable and excellent should be chosen to make them stay. A series of training classes should be arranged on service for the staff members to put inappropriate job positions and providing apt induction for the senior staff.

Food, as well as beverages: a written procedure, should be developed for weekly or daily presence of beverages, every head chef as well as sous chef who cooks, should ensure making the same recipes and same presentation of food. All the processes of cooking should be organized as well as recognized in the meeting (Ushakov et al., 2020).

Housekeeping: all the staff of housekeeping should be trained for cleaning as well as setting up of the room under the same kinds of procedures. There should be daily operational meetings for monitoring the progress as well as discovering the problems and also ensuring to solve them.

Implications for the existing staff

Establishment of transparency as well as effective communication, since the selection of staff, has already been done because of new management, we need to encourage and compliment these staff members, For all the pieces of training as well as strict policies for the future of hotel for getting better as well as competitive.

Personal counseling should also be provided when needed, the implementation should be monitored, by observation as well as an examination of their performance, with the help of customer reviews. Rewards, as well as a punishment system, should also be implemented for encouraging them to behave as well as study better.

Introduction

The development in the personality will help the person to learn and increase their working style. There are most the people in the society as they want to increase their personality. The real use of personality development is to help the person to get more and more opportunities. They will get a better life and new goals in their life as this is an important thing to do for the personal level development. The real meaning of this blog post is to describe the technologies and the ideas that will help the person to improve their image on the professional level.

Gender stereotypes

As the person wants to develop their professional image even if there are men or women.  But most of the time only men will get the advantage to do these things (Kurok, 2020). The importance of developing a professional image. The person will get the opportunity and the option to explore their talents. While developing their professional image and development they get a chance to explore more things in the market. They have gotten their aura in society. The importance of developing the professional image in society. As a person, they get a chance for a better exploring level. Therefore they will get the chance for improving their background and their working status. There are competitors in the market and the reason behind this is the covid-19. This is the reason the unemployment increase in the society. Due to the private sectors and the co-operative department will not be able to hire the candidate. The reason behind this is that there is a competition level. Also, therefore they have to find out a solution to increase the selection procedures. This is the main reason the candidate has to develop their personality development. The development of their professional image will get the chance to reach near to their goals (Tkachenko, 2017).

Importance of the development in the image to fight the competition on a personal level. Also, this will help them to make their aim and the goals clear in their life. As they will have to give better deliveries in return for the development of these methods in the person’s life (Zaplatynska, et al., 2020).

They have to use a better level of solution to resolve this issue. As a person for the development, they have to improve their image in the professional section. They have to build confidence in themselves. A positive thought in the person’s mind will help them to boost their thinking. As the social development and the development of the person on the professional level. They will get a chance to learn differently and the various types of activities. The person becomes active and also, able to get the chance to explore and express themselves in the company. The companies will love to give the chance to the people like this and they will be able to identify their positive and the negative path.

 

The solution is required to improve the personal image of the person.

On the professional level and this is the theory and the solution method.

Image development and exploring their mind thoughts while sharing (Little, et al., 2015). Their ideas express their feelings. For the time being their professional image develops in the society and they feel confident from the inside and the outside. This has been very clear that a positive thought makes the person and helps them to deliver their thoughts. As the company will give them appreciation and this is the reason the person. According to the person’s point of view as they think if their personality will get develop then this will be their positive point. The reason behind this is that more people will ask for their choice and their advice. As they get the chance to lead the group and impose their thinking on the others. Based on their experience and their thinking they can do the changes in the working society in both the private and the government sectors. Therefore they will get the advice and their popularity will be increased in the society (Little, et al., 2015).

Power

As a human beings, they want to set their goals and the aim. Therefore for reaching that point they have to make sure to do the possibilities which will provide them success in return. There is the famous scenario which is run in the society. “that is people will follow only the successful personal life and their working ways. But! No one is ready to examine their failure results”.

This is the reality and thinking of the people of the society against their thought. As some people choose the right path to develop in their life. Therefore some chose the wrong to become the successful person with the shortcut route. This is the reason professional image development will help the person to define the difference between the wrong and the right. They will also, get the chance for better achievement in the future and build a bright future for themselves and their family members. Person to develop a personality they have to make themselves a person with a positive mind and thoughts. They have to learn and explore various types of technologies and the thinking way. Therefore they have to expand their way of thinking and not make themselves a narrow mind person. During the process of the development of the personality and the professional working scenario, they have to make sure to get the better advantage and disadvantages. Working with people on the professional level will help the person to develop their background areas and image in the society and workplace.

A positive working environment will boost the person’s confidence and build a new type of identity inside the person’s mind. This will help the company and the areas of the working sector to get a better level of the results and the innovative ideas in the society. This will lead to a better level of development and most of the most important things the other members of the society. They are ready to take your advice and suggestion for future development and improvements. Personality development and professional image changes will change the person’s surroundings and the working environment. A professional image will include the education, qualification, expertise, certificates, and specialty of the person in their life (Elias, 2018).

Moto of the professional image development of the person will include all these types of elements that make a person ready to lead in the working sectors. Increasing their thought and technologies for better results. These are the thinking and the thought that will help the person to do the changes in their mind and they will be able to improve their professional image by learning from others.

Self-monitoring

Based on the data above and the experiment also, the method will apply to the person. These methods will help them to get a better level of the deliveries and improve the personality of the person. Therefore their image will be developed and their professional image will get better day by day after understating their thoughts. This is the way the professional image will be developed by the person in the society.

Introduction

The usage of social media apps and their importance in today’s lifestyle. This has been very clear that most people depend on social media apps. There are various types of digital platforms available in the market. The people are using them for their better development. Some of the apps will be used to reduce the workload. Therefore they use it to save their time and money. There are social media and digital platforms that are available in the market such as Instagram, Youtube, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and Facebook. These are the apps that will explain in detail in this report and their usage will also be identified.

 

 

Explanation

Apps Development Evolved Personal usage and purpose Frequency Duration
Instagram Instagram is an app that is launched in October in the year 2010. This is an app known as the social media app and the motive of this app is to share pictures and videos just like Facebook. There have been so many changes happening in the app of Instagram while using it. But there is a drastic level of changes that happened on Instagram within the 5 years. These are the changes that describe the increment of Instagram in society. Most people use this app for chatting with their friends so I do the same things. The motive for my using this app for share the meme with my friends and chat as  I love this app’s features. My frequency of mine using this app will be 1-2 hours a day (Jesse, 2015). Most of the time when I use Instagram it will be in the nighttime as everyone gets ready to sleep that is the duration of my using this app.
Youtube The day youtube was launched in this world will be on the day valentine’s day in the year 2005. In the starting, this is the app for placing the videos, and comments, like, and the share are the features that are used in this (Auxier, et al., 2021). In the past 6-8 years massive changes are happening on youtube as this has become a community of the people. The people who love to post their videos and become the creators and the editors. Therefore they get the platform to show their talent to the world. On the other hand, the biggest production companies in Hollywood will create channels to realize their upcoming project and movie trailers. This has become the platform for people to earn more and more money. The purpose and the usage of this app most the people will do it and their motive is to become famous. The people who love to post their videos and become the creators and the editors. Therefore they get the platform to show their talent to the world (Montag, et al., 2019). The frequency of using this app will be 45 minutes per day. Also, the duration will be in midnight or morning mostly.
LinkedIn The establishment of this app will be in May 5t in yar 2003. This is the platform that is built by the American business and for the employment-oriented from the online basis. This app will become the most famous app after the pandemic situation created in the society this means. During the covid—19 there is an increment in the unemployment rate increase so high in the market and due to this people are using this app for the employment and the internship bais. This is the app that is used in the market for building the connection between the people of the private sector and for me, the usage of this app is to get to know more details about the internship and the various types of the programs. I will use this app for 5 hours a day to increase my knowledge (Maglietta, et al., 2018). The duration of this app is in the morning.
Pinterest This app is established in December 2009. Also, the official website of this app is issued in March 2010. This is an app that is innovative by the ben Silberman and their colleagues also, friends. The motive of this app is to share the ideas of the people related to clothing, apps, quotes, and the shopping website. I use this app for the shopping purpose Duration will be 30-45 minutes a week. Evening and at the night I use this app.
Facebook This  is an app that is launched on October 28th in 2003 and the pp for  sharing the  pictures and connecting new friends online This app has become famous in the year of 2008 to 2010. In most of people start using this. After Instagram, I was not that much interested in using this   app Once a week Nighttime

 

Suggestion

According to the table that have explain the difference between all the apps. Based on my thought I want to advise that LinkedIn and Instagram is the app that is used the most in the public sector. They have o make sure to improve the working department and the features of their apps. This will help the people to explore more and this will increase the use rate of the apps in the market. Both of the apps have to increase their market and the contingency with the people. This will increase the use rate of the people of their apps as the unemployment increase in the market due to the pandemic situation in the society. As they have to increase the extending level of their app use (Auxier, et al., 2021).

 

 

Conclusion

Based on the data above details and the information of the using app and their details. The company has to provide a better level of cybercrime and protection from the cyber risk in the society so that people use their app more freely.

Plagiarism

While cooperative effort and the sharing of information are encouraged, you must ensure your assignments and assessments are representative of your own effort, knowledge, and skills. You must not take the work of others and present it as your own. Plagiarism may result in the assignment/assessment being deemed to be “not yet competent” by the Trainer / Assessor.

Students accused more than once of academic misconduct, including plagiarism, may be dismissed or cancelled from their course at the discretion of the Clinton Institute Director of Studies.

Plagiarism can take several forms:

  • Quoting from a book or an article without acknowledging the source.
  • Handing in someone else’s work as your own.
  • Stealing and passing off another person’s words or ideas and claiming them as your own.
  • Giving incorrect information about the source of a quotation or idea.
  • Downloading information from the internet without acknowledging the source.
  • Copying a section of a book or article and submitting it as one’s own work.
  • Presenting as a new and original idea or produce something which was derived from an existing source.

 

Referencing Materials

If you are unfamiliar with how to reference, we recommend that you review http://www.citethisforme.com/harvard-referencing. Two types of citations are included:

  • In-text citations are used when directly quoting or paraphrasing a source. They are located in the body of the work and contain a fragment of the full citation. Depending on the source type, some Harvard Reference in-text citations may look something like this:
    • “After that I lived like a young rajah in all the capitals of Europe…” (Fitzgerald, 2004).
  • Reference lists are located at the end of the work and display full citations for sources used in the assignment. Here is an example of a full citation for a book found in a Harvard Reference list:
    • Fitzgerald, F. (2004). The great Gatsby. New York: Scribner.*
  • It is preferred that students utilises Harvard Style referencing. Generally, Harvard Reference List citations follow this format:
    • Books: Last name, First Initial. (Year published). Title. City: Publisher, Page(s).
    • Journals/publication: Last name, First initial. (Year published). Article title. Journal, Volume (Issue), Page(s).
    • Websites: Website name, (Year published). Page title. [Online] Available at: URL [Accessed Day Mo. Year].

Understanding your results

The great thing with competency-based training is that you either deemed ‘competent’ (you can demonstrate the required skills and knowledge) or ‘not yet competent’ (at this time you haven’t been able to demonstrate required skills or knowledge). The key word is “YET”.

Your Trainer / Assessor will provide you with feedback on your assessments so that you know what you have done well in your assessment and what you need to improve upon or fix. An “NYC” result does not mean that you have failed and that is it – you have the opportunity to try again.  It could be that one question in your assessment was deemed not yet satisfactory and this is the only question that will require review.

Assessment outcomes

Each assessment task will be given an outcome of either Satisfactory (S) or Not Yet Satisfactory (NYS). You must complete all tasks satisfactorily to achieve an overall outcome of Competent (C) for a unit. If one or more of tasks are assessed as not yet satisfactory, you will be given an overall outcome for the unit of Not Yet Competent (NYC).

 

You will be allowed up to two (2) reassessments attempts to complete each task and achieve a satisfactory outcome. You will be given a timeframe for resubmission and advised what you must include in the resubmission.

 

There is an Assessment Task # – Outcome Record incorporated within an Assessment Cover Sheet at the beginning of each discreet assessment activity. Assessors will complete the Outcome Record section for each assessment activity. The summary of the outcomes will be transferred to the Overall Unit – Record of Assessment Outcomeslocated on the reverse of the first page Cover sheet of this Student Assessment Booklet.

She also, the planning and training procedures to fulfill the need of their clients and match their needs. This is the better option in the marketing policy (Park, et al., 2019).

There are various types of clients available in the market and there is the various choice and demand that appears in the market. As the products are delivered and the brand manufactured they have to make sure to meet their client’s needs. The benefits of using the E-commerce platforms are they will be using the less time and consume less time. This is the main reason they choose the E-commerce platform and service to provide the better and the innovative services (Slootweg, 2018).

Seeling with the help of the beauty parlors and communicating with their owners. Rahas organization is famous for its business and beauty products deliveries. Therefore if they communicate with the owners of the parlors and ask them to promote their goods in the local market. All the dealing will depend upon the market policies as they have to communicate with them. Shanan knows the importance of the marketing policy and this will describe the company’s development. They have to make sure to deal with them and for that, they have to use these types of techniques (Ottman, 2017).

They have to handle both the marketing dealings from the E-commerce platforms and the other hand (Ganesan, 2016).

Marketing dealings

The marketing dealings on the local level. Due to this, they have to set the different levels of the pricing of their products and the reason behind this. According to the data and their analysis, most of the people in today’s time will use the online shopping store and their apps for the shopping and this is because this will help them sot save time. Also, this will consume less amount of time and do fast deliveries. Therefore if they went to buy the products from the local and the general level of the parlors. Then the price demand and they have to set the extra level of the margin in the products. The main reason for setting the extra level of the margin in their products including the pricing of the products is because there is a system that is run and famous in the environment of the local market (Harnvanich, et al., 2020).

Most of the local people will do the barging in the market to buy the products at low prices.
