General skills
When communicating in general it is important to be aware of a number of general skills and making sure that you consider the needs of your
audience when to best address their needs.
Cultural Differences – You should be aware of cultural differences so that you do not offend your audience. This means being aware of who you will
be communicating with in advance and learning about their cultural background. You will alsoneed to be aware of your body language and personal
presentation as you want to make a good impression and show that you have taken any cultural differences on board to make your audience feel at

You can use a range of questions to find out about the needs of the other party that you are working with during initial conversations. Similarly being
able to answer their questions and preparing for this in advance is just as important. Questions and answers is the basic format of communication but
doing it effectively is something that can be improved over time. The number one thing that you want to do when using Q&A in a business context is
to find out about your customer and make them feel that you are going to do everything in your power to meet their needs in the most cost–effective

Hardwick Designs will start as a home office/home visit start–up, using one room within the owners home as well as owner's personal vehicle to assist
customers in the Indian Wells Valley/ Searles Valley area. After the 1 year mark Zackery plans to have moved into a leased storefront for a more
professional customer interaction with popular product display. As sales increase I will hire more technicians from the community mainly sourcing
from the local Cerro Coso Community College. The business will be located in the center of Ridgecrest, Ca. making it accessible to residents in the
surrounding communities.
1.2 Industry Analysis
Hardwick Designs will provide computer support in both a consulting and technical capacity to home PC users in both High end and general usage
clients. Since Hardwick Designs is currently a one man operation, its ability to grow in the first three months will be limited by the owner 's capacity
to complete work while having a second form of employment. However, the first three months are very important to build a relationship with
customers and a reputation for getting the job done quickly and well. Zackery will focus on delivering excellent service, and using word of mouth to
network with other new clientele.

Swot Analysis : ' пѓ Innovation '
ShopKeep.com SWOT Analysis Strengths of ShopKeep.com:
пѓ Innovation – ShopKeep is geared for small businesses and has created a reputation for catering to food and beverage sellers. It is an elegant piece
of software that most retailers will feel at home with and the retailer does not even have to be in the food business to use it. It provides an intuitive,
secure POS system that can empower business owners by providing staffing optimization, regulating inventory, accessing sales reports, and collecting
customer information on one seamless, cloud–based platform. (Hamilton–Romeo, 2015). The ShopKeep system is often highly reviewed for its simple,

Each consecutive year for the last three it has grown three times in revenue.
Now used independently by more than 18,000 merchants, ShopKeep announced July 2015 that with Series D funding they have raised $60 million.
ShopKeep plans to use this injection of capital, which was led by investor Activant Capital and with support from existing investors, to aggressively
grow its overall US customer base, launch international operations, and strengthen industry partnerships. (Herian , 2015)

callbacks or recalls. With the help of surveys conducted and logs kept by individuals companies, the standards of the company can be revised to a level
that accurately measures and improves upon customer satisfaction which can only be achieved by the data taken from tests and measurement tools that

Monthly or biweekly discussion groups, meetings, or seminars on performance of products or services could provide the ideas and strategies required
to power the continuous improvement cycle.
v.Integrity – It requires the authority and empowerment to make decisions and carry out tasks without requiring a superior's seal of approval. The
customer service agent should be able to authorize refunds, exchanges, repairs or upgrades based in established principles. This not only speeds up
customer service response time, but also empowers and engages the specialist in the integral running and success of company.
2.The three distinct groups of customer service functions are –
i.General Customer Support – Staffed primarily by generalists and non–technical personnel. They also provide front line assistance such as "walking"
the customer through the owner's manual, assessing the nature of interest–technical or non–technical, and responding to literature requests and other
general issues. ii. Technical Customer Support– Staffed by technicians and engineers that provide technical assistance in the areas of

Risk 1)
Description of Risk – The project does not get funded.
Cause – Senior management determines that it cannot fund the project.
Likelihood of Occurrence – The likelihood of occurrence is considered low. Senior management initially commissioned the project. This was done to
address risks related to the current remote connectivity and the corresponding corporate goals of expansion.
Severity of Impact – The severity of the impact is considered high. The project would be delayed or eliminated and the current risk to the organization

The information for sizing the server infrastructure is gathered from existing server utilization for the applications supported. The amount of servers
selected for implementing the environment is based on projected cpu and memory needs to support the users. As part of projecting resource needs,
allowances are made for variances in versions of system hardware.
Severity of Impact – The severity of the impact is considered medium. If user application performance is negatively affected, the users will not be able
to meet their daily expected workload. In other words, users will not be able to complete their assigned tasks timely.
Risk Response – This issue can be mitigated by deploying additional server resources to support the end users. To improve performance, a group of
users would be moved back to the original vpn access until the performance of the published applications is considered acceptable. At that point the
amount of additional server resources needed can be projected and deployed to support the total user load. Once these additional server resources have

1. What factors suggest that Microsoft's PSS Division needs a more comprehensive and flexible approach for its service offerings?
Admittedly, Microsoft's support services were not as good as those offered by some competitors. Several factors contributed to the nondescript nature of
Microsoft services. Previous support service policy had been determined at the product level. Annually, each product manager negotiated with PSS
over the type, extent, and pricing of services to be offered to customers along with their products. Because Microsoft had 150 products, the result was a

Gates was willing to invest significant resources into technical support services to improve their overall quality and customer perceptions of them.
Choice, Quality, and Simplicity should characterize all technical support programs. Based upon several market research studies and experience, the
task force concluded that customer satisfaction would be sustained by delivering technical support that met customer needs in three ways. First,
support programs should offer customers a choice. Those who "did not want to pay for support they didn't need" should be able to buy software
alone, at a price that did not include service costs. At the same time, customers that "wanted more support and were willing to pay extra for it" could
also do so. Second, all technical support provided by Microsoft should meet or exceed industry standards for quality. Third, all technical support
programs should be marked by simplicity; that is, customers should have little difficulty understanding Microsoft's offering and how it applied
specifically to their needs.
Technical support services should be a "cost center" for the Microsoft Corporation. On this point, there was uniform agreement in the company. As
managers saw it, Microsoft's "core competence" was its technology. Though important, technical support services were not seen as a potential source of
corporate profits. Instead, Microsoft was prepared to invest in them in

Stakeholders will include clinical informatics and bioinformatics experts, providers (both specialists such as genetic counselors and geneticists, and
generalists), pharmacists, information security and privacy personnel, and laboratorians.
The process of developing the EHR interface and CDS content will need to involve users, decision makers, and evaluators. The users will need to be
asked about the tasks they do on a daily basis to provide patient care, and about the clinical decisions that would benefit from computer decision
support.
Stakeholder/users should be surveyed to find out their needs, by asking questions in the following areas: What information do you need that you don't
have? Where in the EHR would pharmacogenomic information be located? Would a link–out to a curated definitive information source help? Or would
you prefer a more concise summary linked to the moment of prescribing? Or both? How will you decide which drugs–gene pairs to implement alerts
for in the EHR? What process will be used to update the system? Who will be responsible? How will new genomic results be put into the EHR, and

they are after. Enriching your content with impactful pictures, graphics, video, bullet points, and bolded text has the effect of forcing the user to glance
at these elements when scanning the page, and likely increase their engagement.

Case Study Of Personal Computers In The U. S. Consumers
The uncertainty created by impersonal and overseas long distance customer service provided by companies that specialize in direct sales of personal
computers has led many U.S. consumers to buy from more local retailers. This sales model follows the push strategy on page 46 of the text, this
strategy "pushes" the product to the end user or customer through sales promotions and other incentives. (Min, 2015) The contemporary consumers are
given a multitude of options when purchasing personal computers and related hardware devices that were not readily available in the past. With this

Retail stores will need to have high quality upgradeable models available for sale, along with onsite technical support that can provide any consumer
modifications being requested. The retail store's tech team could then provide local delivery service of end products to consumers using rates similar

3.What are the potential problems associated with traditional retail sales?
Contemporary consumers have grown more knowledgeable with the specific capabilities that their personal computers are equipped with. They are
seeking more customization and performance levels than that of many standard models available in retail stores. Many retail stores outsource their IT
customer service that has U.S. consumers frustrated with lack of clear communication and cultural relatability. Retail locations can offer more local
and personal customer service with a competent tech support team available by phone, email or internet to alleviate breakdowns in communication
such as language barriers. Rapid delivery to customers can be provided by contracting with local delivery services like UPS and Fed X or an in–house

Global Information Systems ( Gis )
Global Information Systems In this critical essay, I have tried to identify the major processes of designing, developing, and implementing Global
Information Systems (GIS). I have also provided the discussion of how the level of Global Information Infrastructures (GII) affects the design,
development, and implementation of GIS, and how these processes differ from those in a domestic context. Finally, I have also explained how firms
should employ appropriate GII to support these processes.
Design, Develop and Implement Global Information Systems
Implementing the GIS is a huge challenge for many multi–national organizations. There are numerous reasons for which a GIS is required, for
example, to provide the base IT support in each and every country, where the business units of the organization are located. A properly designed,
developed, and implemented GIS helps exchanging information globally, and has also been flexible enough to provide local features and
functionalities (Markus, 2007).
An iterative approach is recommended at each phase of design, development, and implementation of a GIS. Throughout the system development
process a close connection between the end users, the system analysts, and the technical team becomes a high priority. The end users should be allowed
to select, and prioritize the most important requirements. The system analysts should be able to understand and translate the non–technical language of

The Types Of Support That An End User May Require
Chapter 2: Literature Review
The four types of support that an end–user may require are general support, functional support, data support, and purchasing support. General support
includes networks, software, hardware, and other training related support (Govindarajulu, 2014). General Support is the only form of support that will
be included in this study. A university will on average work only with general support for their users. While some authors (Gibson, 2014, for example)
focus on a general overview of help desk requirements, others PChelps (2008) look more closely at different aspects including costs, where users get
their support (Govindarajulu, 2014), and how to evaluate a help desk (Sheehan, 2007). This case study will take a quantitative approach to
evaluation of a help desk instead of a qualitative as other researchers have conducted. This literature review will discuss how the help desk affects a
company's reputation, the costs it has to a company, how a help desk can be evaluated, and how to improve a help desk's customer service.
Purpose of Help Desk
The purpose of a help desk is to provide internal users (employees or students) and external users with technical support. This support is optimizing
computer software, network troubleshooting, virus removal, password resets, and any other types of computer related problems that the user may
encounter (Gibson, 2014). The help desk staff is generally the most likely to be contacted by users, and are thereby

The Business Model Of Like Uber
DoorDash, like Uber, is an example of yet another "Peer–to–Peer" business model; this one takes orders and delivers food via company drivers. In
other words, DoorDash takes food from restaurants and delivers it to the consumer, thereby eliminating the relationships between restaurants and
clients. To that end, DoorDash operates not only as acustomer acquisition company, but also as a logistics company focused on food delivery.
DoorDash is disrupting the old way that food is delivered to customers by interjecting an intermediary.
In addition, while DoorDash only focuses on food delivery at present, it plans to expand to non–food areas and use its logistical delivery infrastructure
to deliver anything to anyone in the future. With great ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
This model will help the company to become profitable in the future.
Having a Strong Technical Team
In the story of this company, its CEO Xu said, "to make one delivery successful there's fifteen small things you have to get correct, which is
shocking." This is true because the company must consider every detailed problem like the most appropriate time to arrive at each restaurant. These
optimization problems make it difficult to make delivery times more efficient and satisfactory to customers. To solve this problem, the company hires a
team of engineers to build a high–functioning online system. This system allows DoorDash to obtain and keep customers and therefore obtain more
business. A strong technical team is crucial for any peer–to–peer business model like DoorDash.
Using Contract Workers
Food delivery is not the same as other delivery service because it has limited peak times. Most food deliveries happen during mealtimes. Due to this
fact, DoorDash uses contract workers instead of full–time employees. Therefore, it smartly and efficiently reduces the labor costs without hurting the
quality of the service.

Introduction
The evaluation and selection of suppliers, structuring the supplier base is an important task in any organization. It assumes utmost importance in the
current scenario of global purchasing. Every Organization especially manufacturing organizations need to have a Supplier evaluation matrix or model
in place. This paper tries to bring in a typical
Supplier Evaluation Framework, which blends with company's basic values, and help in establishing a Strategic sourcing policy. It also outlines ways
and means to reward a supplier and establish long–standing relationships with suppliers.

* Ability to meet current and potential capacity requirements, and do so on the desired delivery schedule. * Financial stability. *Technical support
availability and willingness to participate as a partner in developing and optimizing design and a long–term relationship. * Total cost of dealing with
the supplier (including material cost, communications methods, inventory requirements and incoming verification required). * The supplier 's track
record for business–performance improvement. * Total cost assessment.
Now when the agreement on the business and vendor requirements had been compiled, the team now must start to search for possible vendors that
will be able to deliver the material, product or service. The larger the scope of the vendor selection process the more vendors you should put on the
table. Of course, not all vendors will meet the minimum requirements and the team will have to decide which vendors you will seek more information
from.

The areas that company chooses to measure and manage and the criteria used will be a direct result of the company 's goals and strategy and the

is large and has a small tech support department), the organisation will not function properly and may face many issues thus the provision of IT
Support will be limited.
Another impact of organisational constraints on the provision of IT Support is the licensing and cost of software. The internal IT Support will need
to purchase software licenses in order to provide the support to users. Some software licenses for software like fault logging and VNC are expensive.
If the organisation cannot provide funding for the software licenses to be purchased, the IT Support will need to use alternative methods and this will
definitively impact the provision of IT Support.

SLA (Service Level Agreement)
SLA is a contract between the IT technician and the company which means that technician must to do and to meet with the company requirements, for
example IT technicians will produce the secure networks, authentication via username and password, and also computer troubleshooting and
maintenance.
Confidentiality
Confidentiality within all companies is very important as employees have access to a lot of important information on the company that they could
potentially steal, tell others about, post it online or more. Companies have policies in place which are put in place to let their staff know that these
such things are unacceptable and helps to reduce this from taking place but will not stop them from their employees doing it. Confidentiality is also
important between the company and all their customers and is part of the policy. The companies that hold information on their customers by law are
not allowed to give out the information they hold to anyone else without that person's permission, if this was to happen in the company it will result in
actions taking place such as a fine or even worse.

Any decisions to make changes are, to ensure the company's success, the employment agency's success, and the satisfaction of the employees and
consumers. Such changes are derived from planned or unplanned change processes. The focus of transformational change in this literature will
surround the employment agency in correlation with the company. Because the agency has proven success in providing superb technical support to their
customers, the company decided to offer other opportunities to expand their current lines of business. The opportunities exceeded the original plan of
introducing, computer support for desktops and laptops, and now included the chat support. Both of these new lines of business are already in place
with the company, but have tend to become overwhelming with the call volume, so the agency has transformed and adopted the 2 new lines of business.
However, before any focus can be applied to change, a solid foundation is required for an opportunity for a successful transformational. A solid
foundation is determined by honoring the past, which means moving from the Industrial Age paradigm (past), into the Knowledge Age paradigm

Financial Analysis Of Siriusxm 's Subscription Based...
Financial Analysis SiriusXM's subscription based revenues, yielded the company $4.2 billion in 2014, growing 10% year over year, continuing a
decade long trend of revenue growth. In addition to revenue growth, impressively high margins have produced free cash flow of $1 billion.
Despite impressive profitability metrics, financial struggles of the past are till casting long shadows in terms of debt and outstanding shares, yet
management is doing their best to dig themselves out of trouble. The key metrics found below form the basis for industry comparisons and will
discussed further hereafter. With $4.2 billion in revenue, SiriusXM is the industry leader of subscription based revenue, while iHeartMedia leads
the way with $6.2 billion in advertising based revenues. When comparing gross margin, which represents the percent to total revenue that the
company retains after covering its cost of goods sold, we see SiriusXM leads the way with 62%. This means they are retaining more on every dollar
of revenue that any of their competitors. Taking it one step further, looking at operating profit margin, which determines how well the company can
pay creditors and create free cash flow, we again see SiriusXM quite handedly leading the industry at 27%. With such a healthy operating margin, it's
no surprise free cash flow is a major strength of the company, clearing $1 billion in 2014. Free cash flow is extremely important as it allows

The EMR technician seemed to be uncertain and kept putting me on hold. Frankly she gave me the impression that this was her first day on the job.
At the end of the session I still had questions on how some of the features worked such as when does the camera prompt to update a photo of a new
insurance card? At what point are the patients given the options to authenticate? The technician was unable to answer any of these questions which I
felt were part of the set up and installation process. Could this have been a language barrier again? Or did I annoy her with all my questions? Another
communication challenge that I faced was with the staff and patients. I needed to convince both staff and patients that the kiosks are user friendly thus,
making the check in process much faster than checking in with the receptionist. I could hear the tone of reluctance, apprehensiveness and fear from
both the staff and patients as we began using the kiosks. Providing and communicating clear training and instructions on the use of the kiosks was
essential to the success of this new procedure.

instructions to the kiosks. After reviewing the specifications and installation instructions, I could plan exactly how many kiosks to purchase

The task force Nerdy Tech has been implemented to attempt to curb customer satisfaction and perform simple technical support tasks and order tracking.
However, the demand for technical support and follow–up was still higher than anticipated to the point where other staff received more complaints and

outsource or divide technical support transactions and have begun to supersede our company in revenue and progress, I believe it is time for ABC

also be installed with portions of the SA equipment and the entire network for Dahlgren to provide their support. As Dahlgren is contracted by
C3CEN for support of this equipment, C3CEN is also paying for the equipment that Dahlgren will use. Using the breakdown of hardware system
costs found in reference (b), if the system is assembled as designed, one entire network system at a cost of $130,000 and the repeated SA and Tactical
equipment amounting to $3,000,000 would not have to be purchased, saving the Coast Guard $3,130,000 in hardware costs alone. Further, there are

The amount of servers selected for implementing the environment is based on projected cpu and memory needs to support the users. As part of projecting resource needs, allowances are made for variances in versions of system hardware. Severity of Impact – The severity of the impact is considered medium. If user application performance is negatively affected, the users will not be able to meet their daily expected workload. In other words, users will not be able to complete their assigned tasks timely. Risk Response – This issue can be mitigated by deploying additional server resources to support the end users. To improve performance, a group of users would be moved back to the original vpn access until the performance of the published applications is considered acceptable.

What factors suggest that Microsoft's PSS Division needs a more comprehensive and flexible approach for its service offerings? Admittedly, Microsoft's support services were not as good as those offered by some competitors. Several factors contributed to the nondescript nature of Microsoft services. Previous support service policy had been determined at the product level. Annually, each product manager negotiated with PSS over the type, extent, and pricing of services to be offered to customers along with their products. Because Microsoft had 150 products, the result was a hodgepodge of service offerings. Some products had no support ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Gates was willing to invest significant resources into technical support services to improve their overall quality and customer perceptions of them. Choice, Quality, and Simplicity should characterize all technical support programs. Based upon several market research studies and experience, the task force concluded that customer satisfaction would be sustained by delivering technical support that met customer needs in three ways. First, support programs should offer customers a choice. Those who "did not want to pay for support they didn't need" should be able to buy software alone, at a price that did not include service costs. At the same time, customers that "wanted more support and were willing to pay extra for it" could also do so. Second, all technical support provided by Microsoft should meet or exceed industry standards for quality. Third, all technical support programs should be marked by simplicity; that is, customers should have little difficulty understanding Microsoft's offering and how it applied specifically to their needs. Technical support services should be a "cost center" for the Microsoft Corporation. On this point, there was uniform agreement in the company. As managers saw it, Microsoft's "core competence" was its technology. Though important, technical support services were not seen as a potential source of corporate profits.

I double–majored in Criminology and Socio–Legal Studies and French Studies, two programs that have allowed me to build on my research skills.

Stakeholders will include clinical informatics and bioinformatics experts, providers (both specialists such as genetic counselors and geneticists, and generalists), pharmacists, information security and privacy personnel, and laboratorians. The process of developing the EHR interface and CDS content will need to involve users, decision makers, and evaluators. The users will need to be asked about the tasks they do on a daily basis to provide patient care, and about the clinical decisions that would benefit from computer decision support. Stakeholder/users should be surveyed to find out their needs, by asking questions in the following areas: What information do you need that you don't have? Where in the EHR would pharmacogenomic information be located? Would a link–out to a curated definitive information source help? Or would you prefer a more concise summary linked to the moment of prescribing? Or both? How will you decide which drugs–gene pairs to implement alerts for in the EHR? What process will be used to update the system? Who will be responsible? How will new genomic results be put into the EHR, and converted to phenotypes with defined actions?

  • 15. Case Study Of Personal Computers In The U. S. Consumers The uncertainty created by impersonal and overseas long distance customer service provided by companies that specialize in direct sales of personal computers has led many U.S. consumers to buy from more local retailers. This sales model follows the push strategy on page 46 of the text, this strategy "pushes" the product to the end user or customer through sales promotions and other incentives. (Min, 2015) The contemporary consumers are given a multitude of options when purchasing personal computers and related hardware devices that were not readily available in the past.

Retail stores will need to have high quality upgradeable models available for sale, along with onsite technical support that can provide any consumer modifications being requested. The retail store's tech team could then provide local delivery service of end products to consumers using rates similar to Uber and Lyft. 3.What are the potential problems associated with traditional retail sales? Contemporary consumers have grown more knowledgeable with the specific capabilities that their personal computers are equipped with. They are seeking more customization and performance levels than that of many standard models available in retail stores. Many retail stores outsource their IT customer service that has U.S. consumers frustrated with lack of clear communication and cultural relatability. Retail locations can offer more local and personal customer service with a competent tech support team available by phone, email or internet to alleviate breakdowns in communication such as language barriers. Rapid delivery to customers can be provided by contracting with local delivery services like UPS and Fed X or an in–house service provided by the tech support team.4 4.What managerial changes have to be made to regain market share and become a global leader of the PC industry?

  • 17. Global Information Systems ( Gis ) Global Information Systems In this critical essay, I have tried to identify the major processes of designing, developing, and implementing Global Information Systems (GIS). I have also provided the discussion of how the level of Global Information Infrastructures (GII) affects the design, development, and implementation of GIS, and how these processes differ from those in a domestic context. Finally, I have also explained how firms should employ appropriate GII to support these processes. Design, Develop and Implement Global Information Systems Implementing the GIS is a huge challenge for many multi–national organizations. There are numerous reasons for which a GIS is required, for example, to provide the base IT support in each and every country, where the business units of the organization are located. A properly designed, developed, and implemented GIS helps exchanging information globally, and has also been flexible enough to provide local features and functionalities (Markus, 2007). An iterative approach is recommended at each phase of design, development, and implementation of a GIS. Throughout the system development process a close connection between the end users, the system analysts, and the technical team becomes a high priority. The end users should be allowed to select, and prioritize the most important requirements. The system analysts should be able to understand and translate the non–technical language of end users to the language understandable by the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 19. The Types Of Support That An End User May Require Chapter 2: Literature Review The four types of support that an end–user may require are general support, functional support, data support, and purchasing support. General support includes networks, software, hardware, and other training related support (Govindarajulu, 2014). General Support is the only form of support that will be included in this study. A university will on average work only with general support for their users. While some authors (Gibson, 2014, for example) focus on a general overview of help desk requirements, others PChelps (2008) look more closely at different aspects including costs, where users get their support (Govindarajulu, 2014), and how to evaluate a help desk (Sheehan, 2007). This case study will take a quantitative approach to evaluation of a help desk instead of a qualitative as other researchers have conducted. This literature review will discuss how the help desk affects a company's reputation, the costs it has to a company, how a help desk can be evaluated, and how to improve a help desk's customer service. Purpose of Help Desk The purpose of a help desk is to provide internal users (employees or students) and external users with technical support. This support is optimizing computer software, network troubleshooting, virus removal, password resets, and any other types of computer related problems that the user may encounter (Gibson, 2014). The help desk staff is generally the most likely to be contacted by users, and are thereby ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 20. The Business Model Of Like Uber DoorDash, like Uber, is an example of yet another "Peer–to–Peer" business model; this one takes orders and delivers food via company drivers. In other words, DoorDash takes food from restaurants and delivers it to the consumer, thereby eliminating the relationships between restaurants and clients. To that end, DoorDash operates not only as acustomer acquisition company, but also as a logistics company focused on food delivery. DoorDash is disrupting the old way that food is delivered to customers by interjecting an intermediary. In addition, while DoorDash only focuses on food delivery at present, it plans to expand to non–food areas and use its logistical delivery infrastructure to deliver anything to anyone in the future. With great ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... This model will help the company to become profitable in the future. Having a Strong Technical Team In the story of this company, its CEO Xu said, "to make one delivery successful there's fifteen small things you have to get correct, which is shocking." This is true because the company must consider every detailed problem like the most appropriate time to arrive at each restaurant. These optimization problems make it difficult to make delivery times more efficient and satisfactory to customers. To solve this problem, the company hires a team of engineers to build a high–functioning online system. This system allows DoorDash to obtain and keep customers and therefore obtain more business. A strong technical team is crucial for any peer–to–peer business model like DoorDash. Using Contract Workers Food delivery is not the same as other delivery service because it has limited peak times. Most food deliveries happen during mealtimes. Due to this fact, DoorDash uses contract workers instead of full–time employees. Therefore, it smartly and efficiently reduces the labor costs without hurting the quality of the service. Business Strategy: Making Money in the Long Run As mentioned before, DoorDash focuses on customer experience and consumer need in the short–term. According to its official website, it charges $6 per delivery, and the driver will receive a flat

If the organisation doesn't have either an internal or external IT Support (or the organisation is large and has a small tech support department), the organisation will not function properly and may face many issues thus the provision of IT Support will be limited. Another impact of organisational constraints on the provision of IT Support is the licensing and cost of software. The internal IT Support will need to purchase software licenses in order to provide the support to users. Some software licenses for software like fault logging and VNC are expensive. If the organisation cannot provide funding for the software licenses to be purchased, the IT Support will need to use alternative methods and this will definitively impact the provision of IT Support. ...

Confidentiality Confidentiality within all companies is very important as employees have access to a lot of important information on the company that they could potentially steal, tell others about, post it online or more. Companies have policies in place which are put in place to let their staff know that these such things are unacceptable and helps to reduce this from taking place but will not stop them from their employees doing it. Confidentiality is also important between the company and all their customers and is part of the policy. The companies that hold information on their customers by law are not allowed to give out the information they hold to anyone else without that person's permission, if this was to happen in the company it will result in actions taking place such as a fine or even worse.

Such changes are derived from planned or unplanned change processes. The focus of transformational change in this literature will surround the employment agency in correlation with the company.

Financial Analysis SiriusXM's subscription based revenues, yielded the company $4.2 billion in 2014, growing 10% year over year, continuing a decade long trend of revenue growth. In addition to revenue growth, impressively high margins have produced free cash flow of $1 billion. Despite impressive profitability metrics, financial struggles of the past are till casting long shadows in terms of debt and outstanding shares, yet management is doing their best to dig themselves out of trouble. The key metrics found below form the basis for industry comparisons and will discussed further hereafter. With $4.2 billion in revenue, SiriusXM is the industry leader of subscription based revenue, while iHeartMedia leads the way with $6.2 billion in advertising based revenues. When comparing gross margin, which represents the percent to total revenue that the company retains after covering its cost of goods sold, we see SiriusXM leads the way with 62%. This means they are retaining more on every dollar of revenue that any of their competitors. Taking it one step further, looking at operating profit margin, which determines how well the company can pay creditors and create free cash flow, we again see SiriusXM quite handedly leading the industry at 27%.

At what point are the patients given the options to authenticate? The technician was unable to answer any of these questions which I felt were part of the set up and installation process. Could this have been a language barrier again? Or did I annoy her with all my questions? Another communication challenge that I faced was with the staff and patients.

In order to have the Situational Awareness equipment function, portions of the Tactical system and the entire internal network between the Tactical and SA equipment must be installed. The reciprocal of this is also true for Tactical support carried by NSWC Dahlgren; the Tactical system must also be installed with portions of the SA equipment and the entire network for Dahlgren to provide their support. As Dahlgren is contracted by C3CEN for support of this equipment, C3CEN is also paying for the equipment that Dahlgren will use. Using the breakdown of hardware system costs found in reference (b), if the system is assembled as designed, one entire network system at a cost of $130,000 and the repeated SA and Tactical equipment amounting to $3,000,000 would not have to be purchased, saving the Coast Guard $3,130,000 in hardware costs alone. Further, there are duplicated Coast Guard specific software packages, operating applications, annual licenses and development tools that must be maintained. Per reference (c), the cost analysis revealed a cost of $2,255,000 for just the software.
