How to Prepare Your Case Study Analysis

When you are doing the detailed reading of the case study, look for the following sections:

1. Opening paragraph: introduces the situation.

2. Background information: industry, organization, products, history, competition, financial information, and anything else of significance.

3. Specific (functional) area of interest: marketing, finance, operations, human resources, or integrated.

4. The specific problem or decision(s) to be made. What appears to be the issue (of concern, problem, challenge, or opportunity) and its significance for the organization?

5. Alternatives open to the decision maker, which may or may not be stated in the case.

6. Conclusion: sets up the task, any constraints or limitations, and the urgency of the situation

Task: Read the case study then prepare a MS-Word paper to analyze the case study. Your case study analysis must include the following 5 sections:

1) Abstract (what is the case study about)

2) Problem Statement: Overview of key issues arising from case analysis:

You want to deal with important issues in order of urgency to keep focused on your objective. Important issues are those that have a significant effect on:

- profitability,

- strategic direction of the company,

- source of competitive advantage,

- morale of the company's employees, and/or

- Customer satisfaction.

3) Case Analysis: Theory-driven analysis of case(s) identifying factors underlying key issues

- What are the constraints and opportunities implicit to this situation? It is very rare that resources are not a constraint, and allocations must be made on the assumption that not enough will be available to please everyone.

- What do the numbers tell you? You need to take a look at the numbers given in the case study and make a judgment as to their relevance to the problem identified. Not all numbers will be immediately useful or relevant, but you need to be careful not to overlook anything. When deciding to analyze numbers, keep in mind why you are doing it, and what you intend to do with the result. Use common sense and comparisons to industry standards when making judgments as to the meaning of your answers to avoid jumping to conclusions

4) Alternative Solutions: Pros and cons of possible solutions to problems

- improve (or at least maintain) profitability,

- increase sales, market share, or return on investment,

- maintain customer satisfaction, corporate image,

- be consistent with the corporate mission or strategy,

- within our present (or future) resources and capabilities,

- within acceptable risk parameters,

- ease or speed of implementation,

- employee morale, safety, or turnover,

- retain flexibility, and/or

- Minimize environmental impact.

5) Recommendations: Detailed description of optimal solution with rationale

Your paper must be 8-10 pages not including the cover page and references. Must be written in 12 Times New Roman and double spaced. Margins of 1" from each side.
