Submission Turnitin on Blackboard
Requirements Scenario: As an individual consultant, you have been hired by a group of
investors to investigate a New Zealand industry, and report back on whether you
would recommend they invest in this industry. Hence, the purpose of this report
is to highlight the key opportunities and threats facing the industry, and to
provide an informed investment recommendation.
The industry you will analyse will be provided by your workshop lecturer. Only
analyse the industry provided. You will use the frameworks learned over the first
3 weeks of the course to analyse this industry, using the process practiced in
Workshops. You will write-up your analysis on the provided template, which will
require you to draw conclusions based on your analysis using each framework.
The template will require you to write in concise paragraph form.
Please see Blackboard and your Workshop Lecturer for additional requirements
for this assessment.
Important notes:
- This is an individual assignment. However, as you will be working on the
same industry as other members in your student group, you may choose to
engage in some exchange of research and brainstorming with other students
(but this is not a requirement). Although exchange of research and discussion
may take place, as this is an individual assessment, submissions must feature
original wording and students must ensure they do not plagiarise each other.
Instances of students handing in the same text will be taken very seriously,
and referred to AUT Academic Integrity Committee.
- You have access to the same information that is available to a professional
consultant, e.g., market intelligence databases, company reports, media
reports, industry trade publications, etc. You are producing a high-value
report that will highlight future opportunities and threats that investors will
need to consider. Information based on the past and present is of much less
value than well-supported credible data about future trends.
- A large portion of the marking of this assessment is based on your ability to
source and analyse quality data. Analysis drawn from blogs, miscellaneous
websites, and other analysis will be heavily penalised. You must, therefore,
demonstrate your ability to gather information from sources, and decide for
yourself what this means for the company – students who demonstrate this
ability will score much higher than those who are simply summarising others’
analyses or findings.
