Domino's Pizza Inc. is the largest pizza chain in the world, headquartered in Ann Arbor, Michigan. It was established in 1960 and has over 17,000 stores globally. Domino's faces a class action lawsuit from employees claiming wage underpayment and issues with franchisees demanding cash from workers for visas. Its strategy focuses on increasing carryout orders over delivery and doubling its global store count to 10,000 by 2025. However, this strategy faces risks from the COVID-19 pandemic which has reduced demand and forced some store closures. A financial analysis shows rising annual revenue but identifies the pandemic as a current top risk.

Dolce Mamma Bakery
The paper explores a bakery business located in San Diego. The business name of the company is Dolce Mamma Bakery. The paper will explore the bakery in terms of functions and location. It will investigate the best price discrimination technique to acquire more clients while enabling the firm to make more profit. The study will calculate the Economic Order Quantity to examine the optimal order quantity to maintain for soft drinks. Also, it will analyze other aspects of business, such as bribery, false advertising, and protecting the company from copycats.
The Business
The name of the bakery is Dolce Mamma. Dolce Mamma will provide the best qualities and variety of fresh bakes, cakes, sweets, beverages, and homemade juices. The bakery located at San Diego-CA, specifically in the Pacific Beach area, where it has the most significant number of Brazilian who miss an excellent Brazilian fresh bake, sweets, salty and taste of Brazilian cuisine. Dolce Mamma bakery opened to the public to all ages, and social classes, mainly for people who enjoy a fresh-baked. The main products sold in the bakery include cakes, pies, bread, and pastries. The business will have their orders packed so that they can eat at home or any other convenient place. However, we shall have coffee, tea, milk, fresh juice, and soft drinks for the majority of the clients who would like to consume baked food at the beach. Dolce Mamma will employ qualified staff to cook delicious products. It will use a skilled bread-baker and a talented cake decorator for efficient products. Customer care is also an area of great concern and the employees will be efficiently trained to handle consumers complaints.
Price Discrimination
The best price discrimination to engage in a bakery is third-degree price discrimination (Allain, Chambolle, & Turolla, 2019). It entails charging a diverse price to different groups of clients. Dolce Mamma should put such discounts on bakery offers so that people get to know that the business cares about the particular groups. The company should give special discounts to members of a given group such as seniors, disabled, and students. The third-degree price discrimination helps to expand the market by selling the product to a group that wouldn’t buy if there were no such discounts such as the students. The action should not cause a bad feeling among clients who don’t fit in the discounted group because it doesn’t add the price of a good. Also, Dolce Mamma can split its market into off-peak and peak seasons. For example, the demand for cakes can be high during holidays when people are doing weddings. Thus, the bakery should find a way of charging high prices during peak time and charge low prices during off-peak.

History
Growing up in foster homes most of their childhood, Tom Monaghan and his brother James borrowed $900 in 1960 to purchase a mom-and-pop pizza store in Ypsilanti, Michigan, named Domi-Nick’s. After trading his brother James a Volkswagen Beetle for his half of the business in 1961, Tom changed the store name in 1965 from Domi-Nick’s to Domino’s Pizza Inc. The company experienced steady growth during the 1960s, and by 1978, there were 200 Domino’s stores in the USA. During the 1980s, the company expanded rapidly both in the USA and internationally. By the end of the decade, Domino’s had more than 5,000 stores in the USA, Canada, United Kingdom, Japan, Australia, and Colombia. By 1998, there were more than 6,000 Dominos, with 1,500 located outside the USA. Tom Monaghan retired in 1998 and sold 93 percent of the company (worth $1 billion) to Bain Capital Inc. In the six years following the sale, Domino’s enjoyed great success under Bain Capital and in 2004 Domino’s became a publically traded company on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol DPZ. The initial stock price was $16 per share and placed a value on the company at more than $2 billion (double the price Bain paid).
Domino’s changed its 49-year-old recipe at year end 2009 and started a heavily advertised marketing campaign called “new inspired pizza.” Domino’s stock price appreciated from around $8 a share at the start of 2010 to $60 in mid-2003. Fueled by the new recipe and new products, Domino’s celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2010 and was awarded best pizza chain in 2010 and 2011 by Pizza Today magazine, marking the first time ever that the same pizza chain had received the award in consecutive years. Domino’s CEO Patrick Doyle was named the best CEO of 2011 by CNBC. Domino’s was recently ranked number 1 in Forbes magazine’s “Top 20 Franchises for the Money” list.
About 96 percent of Domino’s stores are owned by franchisees. There are very few company-owned Domino’s stores.
Corporate Philosophy and Mission Statement
Domino’s does not have a stated vision statement, but the company mission statement is as follows: “Exceptional franchisees and team members on a mission to be the best pizza delivery company in the world.” Domino’s “guiding principles” are based on the concept of one.

SWOT analysis is a strategic analysis tool that is used to help in the understanding of the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and the threats that are involved in a business activity. It defines the objective of the business and identifies the internal and external factors that are very important in the achievement of business goals. The strengths of a business are the characteristics or traits that give it an edge over others whereas weaknesses are those characteristics or traits that pace the business at a disadvantage. The opportunities are the elements that the business has not yet exploited and would result in profit whereas threats are those factors that would be detrimental to a business leading to its decline. Strengths and weaknesses are internal factors that contribute to the business’s survival while opportunities and threats are external factors that should be implemented or put in check for the business’s growth.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!

2. DOMINO’S PIZZA INCORPORATION 2
Domino’s Pizza Inc. that is also branded Domino’s is a multinational pizza restaurant
chain that is based in America. The corporation was established in the year 1960. The company’s
headquarters are in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and incorporated in Delaware. In 2018, the chain
turned out to be the largest seller of pizza across the globe following sales. The mission of
Domino's Pizza Inc. is the maintenance of high standards of the global chain of pizza delivery in
the United States and offer the experience of outstanding products with outstanding customer
service, remaining to be the exceptional persons serving the best pizza across the globe, selling
more pizza and having more fun (DOMINOS PIZZA: Mission and Vision, 2019). The vision of
the corporation is to be the best operator Domino's Pizza system with the best talent, number one
in pizza, and number one in people.
All corporations exhibit stakeholders like specific, group, or organization. Domino's is a
successful establishment and is required to be aware of not only the needs but also the
dependence of his stakeholders. Domino's has several stakeholders that include customers,
franchise holders, employees, and shareholders. Regarding the employees as key stakeholders,
the corporation is facing class action that is centered on underpayment claims. The corporation is
said to be facing a class action that is emanating from in-store employees of staff as well as
delivery drivers whereby the said stakeholders claim that they have been facing underpayment
for about the past five years. The class action is said to have been filed in Federal Court and is
being funded by Therium Litigation Finance. It has been brought forward by a specialist law firm
called Phi Finney McDonald. Following the claim, from June 2013 to January 2018, the
corporation mandated the franchisees to remunerate delivery drivers and in-store employees in a
series of wrong employment agreements even though they should have been remunerated
following the Fast Food Industry Award 2010. The agreement lacked various entitlements, for
3. DOMINO’S PIZZA INCORPORATION 3
instance, 25% loading for casual employees, extra rates of penalty for operating after-hours, on
public holidays and weekends, allowances for laundry to help in the cleaning of uniform as well
as most delivery drivers and in-store employees became victims of underpayment as a result
(Domino's facing class action over underpayment claims, 2019). Following the corporation's
current corporate strategy and capability, Domino should defend the proceeding and hold
bilateral talks with the franchisees to make the correct agreement regarding how the employees
should be compensated hence avoiding the recurrence of the menace. The agreement between the
different parties will help in solving the hitches hence restoring the relationship for smooth
operations.
In 2017, the corporation faced claims that franchisees were demanding cash from
workers in return for their visas. Accusations that franchisees at the corporation contacted the
employees regarding the payment for the sponsorship of visas prompted employment lawyers to
make a reminder to businesses concerning the potential repercussions associated with the failure
to abide by the workplace and immigration laws. In response to the allegations, Domino's cited
that it was oblivious of the accusations of visa fraud across its networks but investigations
resumed with an immediate effect (Domino's hit by claims that franchisees are asking employees
for cash in return for visas, 2017). Following the corporation's current corporate strategy and
capability, Domino's should ensure that there are strict policies regarding visas to ensure that
employers do not create positions to obtain visas. There should be clear terms on what the
positions are and their description. The corporation should sit with the immigration department
to assess its requirements hence formulate the necessary policies to counter the fraud.
Domino's strategically relevant or success factors in the macro-environment include the
economic factors, social factors, political factors, technological factors, environmental factors,
4. DOMINO’S PIZZA INCORPORATION 4
and legal factors. Per their order of importance, the above factors can be ranked from the most
important to the least important as follows; political factors, economic factors, social factors,
technological factors, environmental factors, and finally, legal factors. The basis for my
arrangement is centered on the impact of each factor on Domino's Pizza Corporation. Political
plays the most significant role in the determination of the factors that can influence a
corporation's long term profits in various countries or markets. Secondly, macro-economic
factors like interest rates, savings rates, and inflation rates among others play a significant role in
the determination of the aggregate demand and investment in any economy (Domino's Pizza, Inc.
PESTEL / PEST & Environment Analysis [Strategy], 2019). The legal factors appear to be of the
least importance. In many nations, legal frameworks and institutions are said to be less robust
enough for the protection of intellectual property rights of corporations.
Domino's competitive forces include the threat of new entrants, suppliers' and buyers'
bargaining power, threats of substitute products as well as rivalry amongst existing firms. The
forces are strong because the firm is aimed at the innovation of new products and services, the
creation of efficient supply chains that have multiple suppliers, the creation of a broad customer
base, remaining service-oriented as opposed to product-oriented as well as creating sustainable
differentiation. Biotechnology is an industry factor that is driving great changes in areas such as
agrochemicals. Through biotechnology, Domino's has mobilized the standard of the pizza
industry to a great level. Domino's remains at the top as the market leader in the United States
market. The corporation is seconded by Pizza Hut. The third position is held by the Little
Caesars while Papa John's holds the fourth position. Domino's is said to bucking the trend. As a
market leader, the corporation is gaining market share and is posting same-store numbers that are
said to outpace the industry (Whitten, 2018). While Papa John's and Pizza Hut are still looking

for concrete footing, smaller actors may soon be taking bites of Domino's sales. Even though still
much smaller compared to Domino's, chains that are fast-casual such as Mod Pizza and Blaze
Pizza are rapidly growing and may soon prove to be substantial threats. The blaze has acquired
over 300 locations and backs from Lebron James hence more directly challenging Domino. It is
important to watch the technological factors to ensure that Domino's makes the necessary
adjustments the following technology hence a future factor to be watch ed at the present (Lucas,
2019). For instance, Papa John's is using post mates, third-party service as opposed to own
drivers to actualize its deal.
Domino’s has over 17,000 stores in over 90 countries across the globe and over 400,000
franchised and corporate team members across the globe. Over half of the corporation's sales
come outside the United States. The company's biggest pizza market for Domino's in the U.S. is
Texas while outside markets include India, UK, Australia, Mexico, Japan, Turkey, Canada, South
Korea, France, Germany, and Spain (Fun Facts - biz.dominos.com, 2015). Their U.S. generic
competitive strategy is the differentiation combined with a cost leadership strategy to attain
growth objectives. Domino's strategic goal in the global market is to become a global market
leader by 2020. The corporation is aimed at delivering the ultimate pizza ordering experience.
Their global competitive strategy towards the achievement of this goal is Domino's new brand
strategy that is to be an e-commerce company that sells pizza. Domino's employs the
differentiation strategy together with cost leadership strategies to gain market share (Willard,
2013). Through differentiation, the corporation ensures that its products are unique and hence
attractive to customers that lead to an augmented demand. Consumers prefer buying a superb
product at a lower cost hence the strategy is quite benevolent in expanding Domino's market
share.

The SWOT analysis is composed of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats.
Domino's strengths include good returns on capital expenditure, strong free flow of cash, and a
strong portfolio band among others. The corporation's weaknesses include the need for more
investment in technology to maintain the market shares, the firm is not very good at forecasting
product demand that translates into high rates of missed opportunities. The corporation also
exhibits restrained success outside its core business. Even though the corporation is amongst the
leading firms in the industry, it has encountered drawbacks in the movement of products to other
segments with its current culture. Examples of opportunities include the fact that new technology
offers an opportunity for the company to practice differentiated pricing strategies in new markets
that helps the firm in maintaining its loyal customers with excellent services. Additionally, the
company can obtain new customers from online channels. Some of the threats include a lack of
regular supply of innovative products, intense competition, and the fact that the corporation may
face lawsuits in different markets due to the different laws and constant fluctuations in the
standards of products in particular markets. Some of the key competitive factors that can be
identified from the value chain analysis are home delivery model, the speed in pizza preparation
as well as its delivery (Domino's Pizza SWOT Analysis Matrix [step by step] Weighted SWOT,
2020).
The competitive value of their core competence is embedded in the capacity to bring
about new products, their production as well as marketing. They exhibit no dine-in alternatives
that have substantially minimized their cost of operation. The corporation exhibits tangible assets
that increase its competitive value. For instance, the corporation possesses machinery, stock,
cash, and building among other assets that help in continuous product improvement hence
competitive advantage. Similarly, the corporation exhibits intangible assets that help in
7. DOMINO’S PIZZA INCORPORATION 7
increasing its competitive value hence competitive advantage, for instance, the company exhibits
trademarks, goodwill, brand recognition, trade names as well as customer lists that help in
increasing the competitive value of the intangible assets. Domino's capabilities play a crucial role
in enhancing the company's competitive advantage. For instance, the company is capable of
carrying out product differentiation that inclines its competitive advantage.
Domino’s annual revenue in 2018 was $3.433 billion while in 2019, the annual revenue
amounted to $3.619 billion hence an increase of about 5.42 percent (Domino’s Pizza Inc.
Revenue 2006-2019 | DPZ, 2019). The corporation’s annual net profit in 2018 amounted to
$0.362 billion while in 2019, the annual net profit amounted to $0.401 billion hence a substantial
increase of about 10.7 percent (Domino’s Pizza Inc. Net Income 2006-2019 | DPZ, 2019). The
top three rivals in the U.S. pizza market include the Domino’s, Papa John’s and Pizza Hut. The
market shares for the three rivals in 2018 were 29.3%, 7.2%, and 13.2% correspondingly
(Whitten, 2018). In 2019, the market shares in the United States were 31%, 9.2%, and 9.4%
respectively (Bloomberg, 2019). Concerning the life cycle, Domino’s and Papa John’s can be
said to be at the growth stage while Pizza Hut is at the maturity stage. This is because Domino’s
and Papa John’s are recently recording an increase in sales while Pizza hub is recording a decline
in sales.
In 2020, Domino's Pizza has unveiled a new strategy for its domestic and international
operations (MautzKey, 2020). Domino's will not be focusing on delivery anymore. In its place,
they have switched their attention to carry out orders, which are more lucrative since they do not
need to pay a driver (MautzKey, 2020). To support this current strategy, top management of
Domino's Pizza has begun boosting the number of Dominos stores locally and internationally
and will undertake renovation to their current stores (MautzKey, 2020). This implies that the
8. DOMINO’S PIZZA INCORPORATION 8
company will have a huge presence in both domestic and international markets. As a result,
customers will get what they want within a short period.
The current strategy is achievable because it just needs boosting the numbers of stores in
domestic and international markets. Also, the emphasis on carryout implies a captivating
opportunity to steal huge market share as the entire carry out the market is larger compared to
delivery. It is nearly 2.5 times bigger than delivery (MautzKey, 2020). According to MautzKey
(2020), this is an intriguing business strategy as Domino's is focusing on what is known for. The
company has returned to something it can better control, its physical stores, in both quality and
quantity (Hunt, 2020). By doing so, it is fishing a bigger market, based on the fact that carryout
is a more profitable and larger pie and they are going after a bigger share of it. This makes the
current strategy more realistic and achievable.
At the start of 2020, Domino's Pizza unveiled ambitious long-term objectives as part of
the plan to follow the current strategy. The Michigan based Pizza Company currently has more
than 1500 store worlds. It anticipates the global stores to grow by approximately 60% over the
next five years, with a target of 10,000 new chain stores by 2025 (MautzKey, 2020). That goal
will approximately double the current growth rate of 5,000 stores over the last five years
(MautzKey, 2020). Also, the company is projecting $25 billion in yearly sales internationally, a
number that would double the annual sales of $12 billion in 2017 (MautzKey, 2020). As a result,
the company expects both international and domestic store sales to grow by 3% to 6% over the
next five years (Domino's Pizza, 2020). This implies that the current strategy should be
implemented in line with these objectives.
These long-term objectives are achievable because DPZ has adopted an intriguing
strategy to achieve these long-term objectives. First, the company has unveiled to boost its
9. DOMINO’S PIZZA INCORPORATION 9
number of stores this year as one of the masters plan to achieve these objectives (MautzKey,
2020). Also, the company is focusing on carrying orders than delivery. The company is now
focusing on something it can adequately control, its physical stores (MautzKey, 2020). By doing
so, it endeavors to get a bigger market in terms of sales increase, based on the fact that carryout
is a more profitable and larger pie and them to get a bigger share of it. This makes the objectives
more genuine and attainable.
The organization chart structure of Domino's Pizza shows that the company 8 subsidiaries
and 82 executives as of January 2020 (Domino's Pizza, 2020). The DPZ's chief executive officer
is Richard Allison. The company has four operational functions such as corporate operations,
strategy and insights, finance, human resources, information, marketing, supply chain, and
international business segment (Domino's Pizza, 2020). It is noted that the company has a
decentralized organization structure, which makes it possible to implement strategies.
DPZ's decentralized structure is designed for strategy execution since it involves all
stakeholders during strategy implementation. This decentralized structure leads to a faster pace
of strategy execution as it facilitates faster and informed decision making (MautzKey, 2020). The
top management has allowed employees to give their opinions before the current strategy is
implemented. Also, the employees were fully involved in the planning process as the
organization structure requires. As a result, the decentralized organization structure is designed
for strategy execution since it encourages a faster speed of strategy execution.
The top current risks result from the Covid-19 pandemic. The disease has continued to
spread significantly across the world. Nearly every country has reported positive cases of
COVID-19 (Domino's Pizza, 2020). This global pandemic has made the company to close down
some of its global stores, especially in countries with higher cases of this virus. In the domestic
10. DOMINO’S PIZZA INCORPORATION 10
markets, the company has downsized its operations as the containment measures have made
compelled most of its customers to stay at home. Besides, the company is recorded a significant
decline in demand for Pizza as the pandemic upsurge (Domino's Pizza, 2020). People no longer

Based on the research on the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, identified by the in-
laws it’s clearly noted that there are no changes in those parameters. Thus, the company is
supposed to focus on its strengths and opportunity, weaknesses and threat.

There are some companies which do fall under the same category sale of fast foods which

competitor companies for Domino's Pizza. The food company in question poses a lot of stif
competition to Domino’s Pizza since it’s characterized by some strengths and opportunities. Some
13. DOMINO’S PIZZA INCORPORATION 13
of the key strengths of the KFC include; it has a very high bend loyalty among its potential
clients, it offers a high number of fast-food products such as chicken wings, burgers among other
products.
Additionally, we also have Pizza Hut food and Beverage Company. It’s posing a lot of
competition for Domino's Pizza (Jham, & Tandon, 2012). Because it has some strengths and
opportunities. Some of the strengths of Pizza Hut include; it has got good marketing and
advertising approaches. Also, this food and beverage company prepares innovative and more so
hygienic food.
Key issue embedded in the Domino’s Pizza Incorporation that needs to be addressed
Domino's Pizza Incorporation has sold a terrible part of its not-excellent pizza. Possibly
it's cost, perhaps its comfort, or possibly there are simply parts of the nation (and world) where
scarcely tolerable pies draw an enormous crowd. Whatever the explanation Domino's has been
on a tear, posting amazing Q4 just as entire year results. Those positive numbers made the
organization's stock hop from an end of $117.61 on Feb. 24 to $132.90 on Feb. 25, after it
announced outcomes - a 13% bounce (DOMINO’S, 2020).. Offers have exchanged that go in the
weeks since proposing that the knock may not be a momentary spike because of good numbers.
Be that as it may, because Domino's had a decent year and the market remunerated those
outcomes doesn't imply that the organization has no issues ahead. It's entirely conceivable that
the conditions which helped its ascent could change, sending shares moving back off course
Strategic Alternatives for the future of Domino’s Pizza incorporation
Increasing the number of its branches
14. DOMINO’S PIZZA INCORPORATION 14
The Domino’s Pizza Incorporation has opened up some of its branches in some counties. The
analysis of the performance of those branches which are already operational in those other
countries indicates that they are doing well. Therefore, the company has to establish more of its
branches in other nations to increase the rate of meeting the needs of its clients.
Improving quality control management
The Domino’s Pizza Company is characterized by some lower levels of quality control
management of its processes. This has led to the loss of some of its clientele. Therefore, there is a
need for the company to enhance the control of the quality of its products to meet customer
demands.
Incorporating the latest flavor into its food and beverages
The tastes and preferences of the clients keep changing and thus the Domino’s Pizza Company is
supposed to incorporate its clients preferred flavors (Holmes, 2014). By the company doing this,
they will increase their rate of customer retention as well as acquiring more clients.
An alternative strategy for the implementation
A strategic alternative that deems fit for the implementation by the Domino’s Pizza
Company is the one to do with improving the quality control management. This is because the
quality of the product is what drives the clients.

restructuring the organ of the company’s unit of quality control (DOMINO’S, 2020). By the
company doing this, it will achieve quality product production. Consecutively, the quality
products delivered to the clients will relt in a positive reputation for the company.
