BUSINESS PROPOSAL 2
Executive Summary
The Temple University should introduce a to set up electric car charging station programs
to make it easier for students to access the car power rather than moving out of the university. It
will lower the time used to go for the charge outside, and instead, they use that time to do other
constructive things. Most Universities have faced the problem of students and instructors moving
out of the university to seek a place to charge their cars. When they access the service quickly in
the university, they fix possible problems that might have occurred in moving out. If Temple
University focuses on developing and implementing an electric car charging station, it will stand
able to support environmental conservation positively and benefits users in several ways. By
accepting the implementation of setting electric car charging stations the university will resolve
the problem of students and lectures using a lot of time going out to recharge their vehicles and
improve environmental conservation (Energy, n.d.).
The electric car charging station can be implemented to operate within nine months. The
program will require a budget of about $4,250 for initial start-up costs in providing installation
tools, required materials, and labour cost (Ference, 2017). However, in other cases, the installation
processes might cost higher than this if the charging point will need major electrical upgrades. The
university can fund the proposal to be refunded after the trial period. If Temple University does
not implement this program, it risks the chance of students and instructors wasting a lot of time,
money to go and purchase the charges outside the university as well as increasing the risk of air
pollution from cars which use diesel. It is essential for the University to understand the primary
benefits of implementing this proposal as it can solve problems within the college and build a
competitive environment.
Problem
New trends in business across the United States and other countries are being implemented
daily to push towards business competitions on different products. The phenomena concerning car
fueling products evolution from the traditional diesel and petrol stations have developed to new
products such as the electric car charging stations which have more benefit to the owners as well
as the general environment (Holland, 2016). In Temple University there is higher congestion for
students and instructors driving out of the school to go and charge their cars outside the University.
It could be beneficial to the university as well as the if the University extends its investments and
come up with the electric car charging st.

Workplace charging works! - so why make it expensive and complicated?Proterra Inc
Recently the Department of Energy's "Workplace Charging Challenge" survey of employers that offer workplace charging, revealed that employees that are offered charging at work are 20 times more likely to drive a Plugin Electric Vehicle. The survey also showed that 80% of these employees offered this as a benefit to retain and attacked talented modern workforce. Since 78% of commuters drive 20 miles or less to work, replenishing this amount of electricity is consistent and equals the cost of a cup of coffee in the break-room. This means that companies don't need to install $5000, high powered, fast, communicating, chargers. Many willing companies are getting discouraged by these industry practices. Simple level 1 charger or the lower powered Level 2, like the Telefonix PowerPostEVSE product line, is a simple, safe and practical solution.

Survey on efficient plug in hybrid vehicle chargingeSAT Journals
Abstract
Our future depends upon the renewable energy sources. Since many years vehicles have relied on combustion fuel like oil and
diesel, which will create problem in near future as there are limited reserves of fossil fuels. Hence the most important fact is to
preserve energy. So, plug-in hybrid vehicle (PHEV) is good and effective solution for eco-friendly transportation system.
Therefore, in this paper a plug-in hybrid vehicle approach is presented along with portable solar panel mounted on it to charge
battery. As solar panel is less efficient, a new technique called external light trapping is presented. A 3D printed parabolic
concentrator is used for this purpose. It redirects reflected photons back to solar cells and hence due to multiple reflections its
power conversion efficiency increases. If in any case, battery run out of charge then to charge it mobile chargers (MC) are used.
An android application is developed to support PHEV mobility. It provides full support to driver through its various functions like
monitoring of battery, prediction of range it can travel with current battery state and its location. The mobile server based on
queuing approach determines design parameter for such mobile charging system. An NJN (nearest-job-next) strategy is used to
serve this purpose. In NJN, MC serves next closest PHEV when its current job is done. Moreover, driver can reserve charging slot
based on their availability. So, in short our main purpose is to reduce carbon dioxide emission and mitigate PHEV driver range
anxiety problem.
Keywords: Battery Charging, 3D Printed Parabolic Concentrator, Queuing Theory, Slot Booking, Plug-In Hybrid
Vehicle.
We can reduce pollution by switching over to electric vehicles and to popularize wide usage we have to remove distance anxiety. To remove that this presentation Anywhere Anytime Charging through annual subscription at solar charging stations. Give me a feedback.

2.3 - Case Analysis: Funding the Railroads
I. Summary
The speculative benefits of a transcontinental railroad were easy enough to articulate:
there was fertile land out west for migrants to farm, gold and silver to be mined in California,
and of course it was a matter of national pride (Ambrose, 2000). According to Ambrose (2000),
the whole country was clamoring for it to be done, yet few were crazy enough to invest as “the
risks of financial failure and ruin were huge” (Union Pacific, n.d. para. 3). Ultimately, funding
was provided by the United States government via the Pacific Railroad Act of 1862, “mostly in
the form of land grants to the railroads; the railroads would sell the unused land to fund the
construction” (Ambrose, 2000, p. 47). Much of the land was all but worthless at the time, but it
was assumed that as transportation cost were reduced, the land would become more valuable
(Garrison & Levinson, 2014; Ambrose, 2000).
II. Problem
The problem is multifaceted. Unfortunately for the railroad companies, they could not
sell most of the land until after the railroad was built, and they could not build the railroad
without the proceeds of the land sales (Ambrose, 2000). Some relief came with the Pacific
Railroad Act of 1864 which doubled land grants and (more importantly) provided the ability to
borrow against the land grants by issuing bonds (Union Pacific, n.d.). However, even with
doubled bonds and the ability to borrow against them, the transcontinental railroad had major
financing difficulties (Ambrose, 2000; Union Pacific, n.d.).
On the other hand, Illinois representative E.B. Washburn (as quoted in Ambrose, 2000)
called the 1864 bill “the most monstrous and flagrant attempt to overreach the government and
2.3 - CASE ANALYSIS: FUNDING THE RAILROADS

the people…” (p. 94), charging that the Wall Street elites pushing for funding were only out to
profit off the public (Ambrose, 2000). Eglin Air Force Base Archaeologist Benjamin Aubuchon
(personal communication, August 17, 2016) affirms that while the Pacific Railroad Acts were
instrumental in building the transcontinental railroad, many railroad corporations in the
Southeastern U.S. were formed with no intention of following through.

Biblical point of view relies on the scriptures of God. The bible is a Christian holy book that gives the moral compass for what Christians engage in, whether in action or utterances. Through modern technologies and other methods, the secularized view of the criminal justice system in America has been influenced by the biblical concept.
Gaps and Omissions
Comprehending juvenile criminal justice, according to the biblical worldview, is to understand the leading cause of crime and human iniquities. Sin is a component of a biblical worldview. All crimes are treated as a sin, but not all sins are viewed as crimes. The juvenile criminal justice system would not exist if there were no crimes (Laurence, 2012). According to sinful human nature, crime always exists; hence the juvenile criminal justice system should be established to help in curbing crime.
The literature is mainly focused on the need to have a separate criminal justice system for juveniles but does not justify the punishment that juveniles ought to receive for crimes they commit. The literature gives detailed views on the topic, but it fails to conclusively articulate what should be done to reprimand crimes committed by youth. The bible is the book of Deuteronomy chapter 16:19 “do not pervert justice or show partiality ...” God is expecting impartiality those who serve distributive justice regardless of age, social status, or gender.
The biblical aim of justice is restoration, as illustrated in the stories such as Jacob and Esau. Human beings are equal in the eyes of the lord, meaning that justice has to be severed equally, although the literature focuses on separate justice for juveniles and adults. God created all human beings with equal value, but the literature seems to favor and try to treat juveniles who have committed similar crimes with adults differently. The literature does not mention that committing crimes against other people is committing a crime against God’s greatest creation.
Biblical Integration
Today youth are facing various risks of being involved in many forms of crimes that end up exposing them to the criminal justice system. Therefore, Christian adults are called upon to guide and bring significant transformation in the lives of the youth. Christians are called upon by God to exhibit unconditional love for juveniles. The church should advocate for fairness and justice for the young. Although some youth have a criminal record, the juvenile justice system's main goal should be to rehabilitate them. These youth can learn and grow from their mistakes. For Christians to create a just society, they should always restore a convicted offender back to society so that they can be integrat.

Jane Q. Student

CJMS 630 90XX
Seminar in Security Management (2XXX)
Vulnerability Assessment: Era Church, City, State
Site Selection and Rationale
This vulnerability assessment was conducted at Era Church (“Era”), 429 State Street, City, State 90909, on the dates of September 25 - 28, 2017, and was followed up with subsequent interviews of relevant church personnel. The site was chosen for multiple reasons including the potential for a violent incident such as a mass shooting, and the potential for fraud or other financial crime. A vulnerability is defined as “weakness[ ] or gap[ ] in a security program that can be exploited by threats to gain unauthorized access to an asset” (Threat Analysis Group, 2017). Threats are events or persons, such as a natural disaster, fire, criminal act, or terrorist incident, that can exploit a vulnerability (Threat Analysis Group, 2017). A vulnerability assessment “evaluates all opportunities that may be exploited by a threat” and through a detailed process identifies areas where vulnerabilities can be mitigated to lower the risk (DiMarino, 2017). Risk is defined as “the potential for loss, damage or destruction of an asset as a result of a threat exploiting a vulnerability” (Threat Analysis Group, 2017). The vulnerability assessment at Era Church covers multiple areas to include physical, operational, technological, and financial vulnerabilities. While Era has taken measures to mitigate vulnerabilities, there are some recommendations in each area that could further mitigate risk.
Religion is a contentious and polarizing topic in the United States, which makes churches prime targets for groups or individuals who want to make a statement. Perhaps the most infamous church shooting in recent memory is when white supremacist Dylann Roof shot and killed nine African-American church members of Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, SC, on June 17, 2015 (Blinder & Sack, 2017). Roof brought a .45-caliber semiautomatic handgun into the church in a waist pouch, and attended the Bible study for approximately 40 minutes before he shot and killed the members using seven magazines and over 70 rounds (Blinder & Sack, 2017). This incident is just one of many violent incidents at places of worship. There is no sure-fire way to completely avoid incidents such as this shooting, but there are steps that can be taken to help minimize or avoid a large-scale incident.
In addition to the threat of violence, churches are also prime targets for fraud, both from internal and external threats. For instance, the Center for the Study of Global Christianity reports that in 2014 churches lost an estimated $39 billion to internal financial fraud (Thomason, 2016). Theft and embezzlement of church funds are two significant risks faced by faith-based institutions. (Thomason, 2016). In addition to an ins.

Author Note
The author note is typically used in manuscripts that will be submitted for publication. The author note may provide additional information regarding the affiliations of the authors. It is also used to acknowledge those who contributed to the study, but not at the level of authorship. Lastly, the author note typically includes contact information for at least one author (see APA guide p. 24, section 2.03 & sample paper on p. 41.)
Remember to format the author note using block format (no indents, left or right justification).
Abstract
The abstract is a brief (usually 100-150 words) summary of your experiment. What was your question? What did you do? What did you find? What is your conclusion/interpretation? Try taking the lead sentence or two (but not word-for-word) from your introduction, results and discussion and integrate them into your abstract. Additionally, add a sentence or two describing your procedure, especially if it differs from those typically used to study the phenomenon.
The abstract is page two. Nothing goes on this page except the abstract. Center the word "Abstract" on the page and format in bold-face type. Do not put the title of your paper on this page. Begin typing the abstract on the line directly below the heading.
Notice that the abstract is not indented, and is written in block format. It is also double-spaced. Typically, the abstract is one paragraph in length.
Keywords: type a few words (or phrases) that would be useful if someone was searching for a study similar to this one. For example, if you studied reaction time in a card sorting task your key words might be “card sorting,” “response time” and decision making. (Note: the word “keyword” is italicized and indented.)
Title
On the third page, you typically begin your introduction. Notice that the word "INTRODUCTION" does not appear at the top of the page as many of the other headings do. The title used is the same one that appears on the cover page.
The first paragraph should contain a description of the phenomena that you are studying. Make a general statement about the phenomenon and how it is typically measured. Also, talk about how one might manipulate or influence the outcome (i.e, what variables could potentially influence the results).
Subsequent research should describe previous research that examined the phenomena. These studies serve to provide the rationale for your study. What did the researchers do? What did they find? What did they conclude?
Do this for each study cited. Typically, one or more paragraphs are necessary to explain each study. Try to make the transition smooth from one paragraph to the next. Use transition words (see SIGNAL WORDS hand.

Virtual organizations refer to organizations whose employees are geographically spread and connect through phone, internet or email (Hebert, 2017). The concept of a virtual organization utilizes technology from a management perspective in which employees engage in different tasks to achieve the organization’s objectives. There are various benefits associated with virtual organizations. First, the owner of the business incurs lower overhead costs because a virtual organization needs no office space, furniture or paying for utilities (Shamsuzzoha & Helo, 2017). For example, an online education business only needs tutors and students. Secondly, employees are more satisfied due to the comfort of working from their own houses, for instance, tutors in a virtual institution can lecture students at the comfort of their homes. Lastly, the owner of the business can expand the business without having to worry about moving the many employees to a larger office.
However, a virtual organization is prone to many risks that hinder its effectiveness in terms of achieving its objectives. One of the risks is lack of cohesiveness in the organization. This is brought by the fact that the employees are spread and thus difficult to call for an emergency meeting in case an urgent need arises (Wohlers & Hertel, 2017). Secondly, there is a risk to reputation for customers may not perceive a virtual organization as a real company. Lastly, lack of social interaction discourages teamwork. Despite all these, there are various opportunities associated with virtual organizations such as the opportunity to reach the vast majority of the customers as well as an opportunity to change the strategy used by the business easily and for less cost.

Abstract
Abstracts are research tools that can help you readers determine if the scope of your article/essay will help them in their own research. In APA, abstracts are typically 150-250 words in length and provide an evaluative summary of the essay to follow. The personal opinion of the author is strictly prohibited in abstracts. Unlike a body paragraph, the first line of an abstract is not tabbed-in. For many student essays, especially in lower-numbers courses, an abstract will not be required; still, it is good to practice this skill.
Title of Essay
In APA style, the introduction of the essay should begin here, followed by the body paragraphs. APA is typically a more formal style than most students are accustomed to using in a writing course. For the purposes of this course, the level of formality should be based on the assignment. For example: APA asks that students always write in third person (avoiding words such as I, me, we, our(s), you, your(s), etc). Certain rhetorical modes, however, don’t cater well to third person (narrative and reflection writing are two such examples). In these situations, first person (I, me, we, our(s)) may be, and should be employed; second person (you, your(s)) should be avoided in all academic writing unless an essay is specifically designed to relay instructions (there are few assignments that will employ second person).
Like any essay, students should make sure their essays are formatted with one inch margins, with their text exclusively in Times New Roman 12-point font, and students should double space their lines. This document can be downloaded and used as a template wherein students may simply replace names, titles, dates, and so on with their own information.
The final page of this document will demonstrate a References page. If a student uses information from any source, that source must be identified within the text and listed on a References page. These citations should be listed in alphabetical order and, opposite to the way a normal paragraph works, the first line should be flush left and each following line should be tabbed in. Though there is really no substitute for a good APA Style Manual, students can refer to a citation generator such as www.citationmachine.net to ensure proper formatting. Any further questions should be directed to the instructor of the course.

On-Boarding
Felicia Griffin
Professor Keith Lipscomb
BUS 325: Global Human Resource Management
February 13, 2019
Onboarding process is a usual process in the recent past in many business organizations. Onboarding seeks to ensure that new employees are easily embedded into the systems as fast as possible. New employees can adjust much more comfortable when they have better employees to ease them in. It helps new employee recruits to adjust to the social and performances. It is mainly aimed at maximizing success. Various vital steps need to be followed in ensuring that new recruits are effectively realigned into the organizational structure.
This is an essential procedure in organizational performances it ensures that new recruits take the shortest time possible to settle and establish better relations with other employees. It is the best way that a business organization can ensure that new recruits concentrate on the primary purpose of the organization rather than focus on how they can settle in their new working environment and social environment.
The onboarding process is an exceptionally chronological process where a beginner follows a given order of events in the organization. The first step is to study the new employee characteristics. It involves understanding their character and their ability to be integrated into the company operations smoothly. This process is very significant because the company can know quite earlier the behavioral adjustment that a given new employee can make to become successful.
The next step in the process is the deployment of newcomer tactics. Within this stage, the new employee develops a relationship with the existing employees within the organization to have a conducive business environment. The next step in the onboarding process is the readjustment of new employee tactics and behavior to conform to organizational culture and be in a position to work effectively towards the achievement of the set organizational goals.
One of the most critical elements of onboarding in a global environment is studying and understanding the characteristics of the new hire to be in a position to know how easy the new recruit will be able to adjust to the organizational culture and its operations. Another vital element in onboarding is the creation of an understanding between new recruits and the already existing employees within the organization to formulate a formidable team that can propel the organization to new heights.

Abstract
This paper will discuss psychology and Christianity: Two disciplines that seem to be difficult subjects when discussing an integrated approach. There are some people who believe that, psychology has become one completely different subject than Christianity and both at times have lost all connection with the other. In addition, there are integrative models of disciplinary that think psychology is strictly a science and Christianity is solely based on faith and religion and the two cannot be integrated together. After further review of evidence, it seems that the integration approach for both disciplines are given by God and that they both should be integrated to create a more understanding of humanity. The focus of this paper is to describe the Allies” model and how it relates to integrating two disciplines; psychology and Christian faith. In addition, the strengths and limitations of the Allies model will be discussed. Also included are definitions of both subjects and views on different approaches towards this matter. Scriptures will be added that correspond with this approach, as well as, several factors that lead to the integration process of both disciplines. After further studies of the evidence of various disciplines, it seems like the “Allies” model best fits the relationship between psychology method and Christianity.
Integration between Christian faith and Psychology
Webster dictionary states that psychology is, “The science of mind and behavior and the study of mind and behavior in relation to a particular field of knowledge or activity” (Merriam-Webster, 2017). Whereas, Christianity is defined, “A religion based on the person and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, or its beliefs and practices” (Merriam-Webster, 2017). After the evidence from various disciplines of study, it seems that a person’s foundation is based on what we see and how we know. This leads a person to believe that it is crucial for Christian counseling to use both psychology and Christianity. There are several different methods that psychological theory and science use to gain knowledge. These are: “Logic,” “Empiricism,” “Revelation,” and “Hermeneutic” (Entwistle, 2015. P. 97). Whereas, experiments in psychology use deductive logic when testing a hypothesis. Inductive reasoning uses experiments that show a correlation by manipulating the variables. For instance, we use science to find out if a statement is true or false. An idea is a suggestion upon which an argument is based or from which a conclusion is drawn. For.

LETTER OF ADVICE 2
Dear Cassy and Jeremy,
Congratulations on your recent engagement. It’s such a great time in your life. My wife
and I have been married almost 8 years. I also just took a class on interpersonal communications
and would love to share with you some of what I learned in addition to some personal
experiences.2 Knowing how your partner communicates and uses verbal and non-verbal
communication is important in a relationship and will help in reducing miscommunications.
Know going in to your marriage that there will be conflict but learning how to manage or resolve
those conflicts will help in a successful marriage. I know you both love each other very much
and that will help get you through those difficult times.3
Interpersonal Relationships4
Interpersonal relationships are part of our everyday life. Getting married forms one of
the most important interpersonal relationships you will ever have. But with any relationship there
are barriers to effectively maintain those interactions. Our self-concept is developed through our
interpersonal relationships and changes over time. Emotional intelligence also has a great impact
on how effective a relationship will be. The amount an individual discloses of themselves in a
relationship can vary depending on the type of relationship and can have both negative and
positive effects. Interpersonal conflict is probably one of the most challenging aspects of a
relationship and managing these conflicts effectively is important to the relationship’s wellbeing.

Executive Summary
As with any new technology, risks can arise in e-commerce that is not common to those traditional “brick-and-mortar” stores. A huge concern for e-commerce applications is credit/debit card use. Major damage can be done to an organization if the credit/debit card transactions are not secured in terms of financial fraud, loss of consumer confidence, identity theft, or legal regulations.
Online Goodies provides custom promotional gifts to corporate customers and is an Internet-based company. Some of their products include mugs, computer accessories, t-shirts, and office décor. The majority of its income comes from online credit card purchase. They give their repeat customers a discount based on their annual purchase amount.

The purpose of his test plan is to ensure the Goodies site meets all of its business, functional, and technical requirements. The test plan describes the schedule of test activities, test plan strategy, activities, resources, and scope. This document will identify the features on the site to be tested, the testing tasks, the user assigned to each task, each testing environment, techniques, explanation of options, and risks.
Before actually testing the site, you have to create test cases. This is the sample data which will be used to go through the system. These can be created as soon as the requirements are received. Additional test cases should be created to test other aspects of the system due to its complexity.
Explanation of Testing
Usability testing is one of the most important aspects of building a website. Users are not going to take the time to try to use a website that is poorly designed. We are used.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

BUSINESS PROPOSAL 2
Executive Summary
The Temple University should introduce a to set up electric car
charging station programs
to make it easier for students to access the car power rather than
moving out of the university. It
will lower the time used to go for the charge outside, and
instead, they use that time to do other
constructive things. Most Universities have faced the problem
of students and instructors moving
out of the university to seek a place to charge their cars. When
they access the service quickly in
2. the university, they fix possible problems that might have
occurred in moving out. If Temple
University focuses on developing and implementing an electric
car charging station, it will stand
able to support environmental conservation positively and
benefits users in several ways. By
accepting the implementation of setting electric car charging
stations the university will resolve
the problem of students and lectures using a lot of time going
out to recharge their vehicles and
improve environmental conservation (Energy, n.d.).
The electric car charging station can be implemented to operate
within nine months. The
program will require a budget of about $4,250 for initial start-
up costs in providing installation
tools, required materials, and labour cost (Ference, 2017).
However, in other cases, the installation
processes might cost higher than this if the charging point will
need major electrical upgrades. The
university can fund the proposal to be refunded after the trial
period. If Temple University does
not implement this program, it risks the chance of students and
instructors wasting a lot of time,
money to go and purchase the charges outside the university as
well as increasing the risk of air
pollution from cars which use diesel. It is essential for the
University to understand the primary
benefits of implementing this proposal as it can solve problems
within the college and build a
competitive environment.
Problem
New trends in business across the United States and other
countries are being implemented
3. daily to push towards business competitions on different
products. The phenomena concerning car
fueling products evolution from the traditional diesel and petrol
stations have developed to new
products such as the electric car charging stations which have
more benefit to the owners as well
as the general environment (Holland, 2016). In Temple
University there is higher congestion for
students and instructors driving out of the school to go and
charge their cars outside the University.
It could be beneficial to the university as well as the if the
University extends its investments and
come up with the electric car charging station which will
accommodate all the students and
instructors, thus improving its profit incomes.
Across the University, most people use electric vehicles (EVs);
therefore, through the
implementation of this program, they will experience lots of fun
associated with their excellent
functionality. The electric car charging station will make it easy
for electric vehicles to recharge
efficiently and without waiting for long lines like it is outside
the University. By their
implementation, students and instructors will be able to avoid
problems of having few focal points
which are not accessible in the University. These vehicles fuel
consumption is frequently
associative than other conventional cars. The recharging of
electric vehicles has excellent torque
and higher responsiveness because they have rapidly responded
(Holland, 2016). With the
university having numerous EV in the college, it opens a chance
to implement the charging stations
as it gives them a choice to control charging at home, at the
school, or out and about. Students and
4. other staff members can leave their vehicles to charge during
class time, which will make it

BUSINESS PROPOSAL 3
convenient for those who have to drive in places where they
cannot access the charging stations.
If they charge them frequently, they avoid the chances of going
to a service station again!
A 21st century EV is more than 80% efficient at turning energy
into a force that moves the
car. A 20th-century gas car is about 80% efficient at being a
furnace (Rajakaruna, 2014). If the
primary purpose of a vehicle is to produce heat, then gas is the
way to go. If the primary goal is to
move the car, the EV is the way to go. Implementing the station
is an advantage to the students
because the fuel for an EV is about 1/4th the cost of gasoline
and nowhere near as volatile. The
prices of oil products are affected by natural catastrophes such
as a hurricane, but the amounts of
electricity stay the same.
Proposal to set an electric car charging station in Temple
University
The Temple University should implement the electric car
charging station in the production
for a more honest evaluation of customer’s feedback and
outcomes. This program will aim at
establishing an electric car charging station which helps the
students and school staff to save their
time, money and manage their vehicles effectively.
From a survey I conducted, I enquired several students and staff
members if they felt
9. interested in the university setting an electric car charging
station in Temple University. Most
responded positively by claiming the program will allow the
most student to enjoy fast services,
save money and time as well. The survey results also indicated
the program would benefit not only
the customers but also the University as well. They all agreed to
participate and promised to
support the trial for nine months.
Therefore, I propose Temple University to implement this
program for nine months as a
trial. The electric car charging program should have level 1 and
2 standards so that services offered
could be much yielding. The commonality of charging standards
is significant for car owners. By
installing a level electric charging station, customers will have
not to worry about the charging
plug. The gasoline-powered brethren can use any gasoline pump
with the caveat that the diesel
and gasoline nozzles are different because those fuels are
incompatible. Although electricity is
electricity, electric car owners should focus on using this
station because it is part of their assets. I
propose the station to have “AC Level 1 (120 volts up to 20
amps) and AC Level 2 (240 volts up
to 80 amps) because the station will have typical charging
methods to accommodate all cars”
(Guinn, 2018). However, the most typical implementation will
need a 6+ kilo Watt charging station
that gives about 25 miles range per hour of charging. These use
the J1772 protocol, and there are
two varieties of connectors the European and non-European
connector, (Zou, 2015).
If Temple University sees a positive change after the trial
10. period with improved sales and
profit margin, then it should expand the investment to keep the
program forever. The new changes
will be tracked using the profit and loss sheets and balance
sheets. The organization will then
maintain an ongoing evaluation to examine all consumer
feedbacks, ideas, and opinions for
improved product development.
Implementation Plan
The implementation of the programs should be for the
organization’s business year 2019-
2020 as a trial period. In case after that period, it proves to have
a positive outcome; then the
organization can move on and keep the program working for the
next year. Before implementation
of the program, it is necessary to adjust organizations basic
requirements of setting a standard
electric charging car station. For easier cope in the program I
suggest the following timeline;

For full funding of this proposal, an estimation of $4,250 can be
used as the initial budget
for the first-period cost. Due to the influences of changes in
technology and economy, the price
seems reasonable to be easily included in the budget for
maximum performance. The cost
breakdown is as follows;
– $400 to $600
– $1000 to $1500
- $500 to $700
– $1200 to $1800
Benefits
Setting the electric car charging station in Temple University
will promote the economic
growth of the university. It will also increase the chances of
attracting and retaining students and
instructors because they are sure they will access all driving
service they need for their electric
14. vehicles (profitableventure.com, n.d.). To students and other
staff members, they will enjoy
opportunities of accessing fast services, affordable, and quality
services within their institution.
They will also have the advantages of saving much of their time
to students because they can leave
their cars charging during class times.
Conclusion and Recommendations
The Temple University should set the electric car charging
station in the university as a
service to enable students, and administrators to save much of
their money and time. Today the
technology in vehicles has changed, and companies are coming
up with a car which has a positive
impact on the environment. Through the installation of the
electric car charging station in the
university, it will be thus supporting the current technology to
avoid air pollution within. Through
the use of electric car charging stations, the University will be
able to address business
opportunities, which might be available in the college. The
program will solve the possible
problems which might occur due to lack of enough facilities to
service the electric cars. The total
cost of purchasing, installing and running the trial at the
University is about $4250 within nine
months.
Focusing to invest in innovation models, partner management,
and product management
are vital roles which the University can implement to sustain
the program. For instance, if the
university chooses to adopt the electric car charging station,
then it will be essential to understand
these roles because technology might be hard to make them shift
15. from one process to another.
Starting the new electric car charging station will expand the
university’s income sources. It is thus
essential to make sure the project sales, profits, and customer
loyalty, are managed wisely. If the

BUSINESS PROPOSAL 5
University is not sure about its performance, it can first have
the trial phase, and if it works well,
then expand it.
