You are working as a senior researcher for a company (of your own choice) to conduct business research in order to solve an issue/situation. The issue/situation the company is facing could be a problem, such as declined revenue, or a potential opportunity, such as the introduction of a new product or the exploration of new market. The issue that the company is facing requires rigorous business research. It is not a problem that can be resolved through sim
ple thinking or discussion. The research proposal is the research plan that you, as the senior researcher, submit to the management for approval before conducting the research. It is a contract between you and management in terms of the steps of the business, budget and timeline.
In a Prospectus–a plan to do research–you do everything except for collect and analyze the data. Keep in mind that you are hired by the company to conduct the proposed research in order to help the management make informed decisions

Required layout You need to follow the layout listed below, not the one in your textbook!
Cover Page:Include a title of the research proposal,course number, course name, and the author’s name Background /current situation

What led you to address this problem?
What are the
symptoms that led you to believe this problem needs to be addressed by business
research?
You should not discuss the histo
ry of the company
or
stat
e
how great
the business was/is.
In general, if you are investigating a current issue, anything
happened a few years ago is irrelevant.
Purpose of the Research:
What is the purpose of your research? Be very specific in
stating the
purpose. For example, your “purpose” might be that you want to investigate
the attitudes of consumers about a specific product and their decisions to purchase that product.
Research design and sample design:
You should discuss how the study will be conducted, including the source of data, how they are going to be collected,and the
type of research, exploratory, descriptive, or casual research.
If data are collected through surveys, you need to discuss what the target population is and how the sample will be determined. Also, instead of providing sample survey questions, you should provide general research questions to indicate what results the management can expect after you conduct the proposed research .

Budget and time schedule:
any complete research proposal should include a schedule of how long it will take to conduct each stage of the research and a statement of itemized costs. Although you may not have a very good idea about the budget and time schedule, you are supposed to provide such information to your best knowledge.
Note that the budget and time schedule is not for carrying out whatever solution or business plan you are suggesting.The example in the textbook does not provide any specific budget or timeline. However, you are required to provide itemized costs and detailed timeline for each step of the research process.
References:
If you cite any sources in your short paper, you need to put them in the
references.

Data analysis of nordstrom company (clothing)

Part 1: Time Series analysis: discuss the revenue data similar to what I have showed in the Sear example is expected: scatter plot of revenue; linear trend; moving average; structural break. Your company revenue may not exhibit strong seasonality. For practice purpose, you are required to fit a moving average to your revenue data nevertheless.

 

First explain what the graph tells you as a manager about the trend, seasonality, and structural break in this company data. Then conduct research to find out how management actually made the decisions in the data.

Note: you do not need to provide the graphs that cannot be obtained using Excel (eg. the four figures shown in the second to last slide in the Time Series Analysis ppt file)

 

Part 2: Linear regression using Macro data:

a. Select one variable from the macro data file that you believe can be highly correlated with the revenue data.

b. Run a simple linear regression using the macro variable as the independent variable and the revenue data as the dependent variable. Report the regression results: show the excel output.

c. Note that the dates for the revenue data and macro variables do not necessarily match each other. You will need to determine the date range that has available data for all variables and drop the extra data. For example, if the date for GDP ranges from 2000 to 2015 and the revenue data ranges from 1995 to 2016. Then you would only keep data from 2000 to 2015.

d. Comment on the significance of the slope coefficient. Briefly discuss the relationship (positive or negative) between the dependent variable and the independent variable. Is the relationship expected?

e. Report R-squared and briefly comment on the fitness of the model based on your opinion.

Management Support System Presentation

You are a consultant that specializes in Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP). You have been hired by a small start-up manufacturing company, with less than 500 hundred employees that specializes in electronic devices. The CEO of the company would like to incorporate a management support system (MSS) into the organization to help in making business decisions. This system will allow managers at the different levels to easily retrieve information from various databases in the organization to assist them in running scenarios, performing what-if analyses, and tracking organizational performance to determine goal achievement. You’ve been asked by leadership to present an MSS to help Company ABC understand how to integrate an MSS into their organization and how it will help them gain a competitive advantage over other companies. Throughout this course, you will be completing different assignments that will apply to this company.

Create a 4+ slide Narrated PowerPoint presentation that presents the material from the paper. This will be submitted with Gap Analysis and Training Recommendation.

Provided below are the assignment details, case scenario, task assignments, and notes to assist those responsible for answering specific questions.

Assignment:

Analyze the case “Determining Training Needs at Summit Credit Union”, which is found on page 153 of the text.

Do the following:

· Create a 4+ slide Narrated PowerPoint presentation that presents the material from the paper. This will be submitted with Gap Analysis and Training Recommendation.

Case-Determining Training Needs at Summit Credit Union:

 

Summit Credit Union, located in Madison and Milwaukee, Wisconsin, is a small company with 366 employees. A merger in 2015 doubled the size of the company and made it necessary to build a new corporate culture. Summit’s mission is to improve credit members’ financial lives to help them achieve their dreams. For example, in 2013 Summit members saved over $13 million based on higher savings rates, lower loan rates, and lower fees compared to for-profit banking institutions in Wisconsin. Summit has invested in creating a world-class learning function, which includes a team of seven professionals who are able to design and deliver instructor-led training as well as e-learning. Summit has shifted away from generic off-the-shelf training to develop online and face-to-face programs customized to employee needs and the company’s goals and initiatives. For example, the learning function is expected to play a key role in dealing with business issues such as efficiency, loan growth, and increased sales. All learning staff members are expected to contribute to new company initiatives, such as new products and services, systems, or regulations. Summit has recently identified a problem with its new lenders. They were starting to perform their jobs without the necessary skills, information, and knowledge that they needed. One potential reason for this is how the lending training curriculum is organized. New lenders attend a course on different types of loans and the lending system, start their jobs, and then later return for a course on lending guidelines, underwriting, and sales skills.

 

How would you conduct a needs assessment to determine if new lenders are starting their jobs without the necessary knowledge and skills to perform well, and if the organization of the training curriculum (or another training issue) is responsible for this problem? Who would be involved in the needs assessment?
