I have done some pre writing research on this report. It is ok if I share my work it may help the experts and save the time. second, please convey to expert that my tutor has suggested that while doing research on orionhealth one can found problems related to any department and can analysis it using VCA,swot and pest. so expert is free to select any internal deptt of orionhealth company but proper resaon should be there to explain it. PLESE FIND THE ATTACHMENT. ALSO INFORM EXPERTS THAT THERE ARE 2-3 COMPANIES WITH NAME OF ORION IN NEW ZEALAND,SO DON'T GET CONFUSE. THE ORION ON WHICH REPORT WILL BE MADE IS ORION HEALTH. 27932066_1VCA.docx. thanks for the report. It is well written and contains almost all info. This report is mainly on Value chain analysis which has to be explained by taking help of swot and pestle analysis. I wish if the expert can explain swot analysis first then pestle and then interlink both outcomes with vca analysis.... giving more importance to vca then other two. Rest of section like the intro, Orion analysis, and conclusion is not only perfect but also so well compiled. thanks for that.
