​ Part A: Analysis – Business Process Models and Strategy Analysis In this section you should develop

1. A series of Business Process Models, which capture the existing and proposed business processes. The models should follow the BPMN notation (see Introduction to BPMN in Unit 4's Resources). It is recommended that you

use Microsoft Visio to create the models although you may if you prefer use Word, PowerPoint or appropriate alternatives.

2. Strategic analysis for LC. You should use a recognised analysis technique such as SWOT, PESTLE etc

Part B: Open Source Software Comparison Table In this section you should conduct research into a suitable software solution for LC You should decide on the set of characteristics which you will use to evaluate the

software and your research should consider 4-5 alternatives in detail. This section should be presented as a table.

Part C: Report In this section you should write a report which provides an overview of the current

situation together with a roadmap outlining how the proposed changes to the business can be achieved to the benefit of the business. This should draw on your analysis in Part A, include your recommendation for software, and provide recommendations for ensuring that the strategy is effectively implemented, including consideration of the challenges ahead.

You should use appropriate theories, frameworks, models, that have been covered in the module, to inform and justify your recommendations. This section should follow a standard report structure:

Title Page – Contents – Introduction - Main Section – Conclusions and Recommendations - References. Part D: Reflection on your contribution to the online discussion

In this section you should submit a 250 word reflective summary, accompanied by your own self-assessment of your contribution to the online elements throughout the

module, using the table labelled Reflection Self Assessment Proforma in Appendix A to justify your assessment (copy and paste it into your assignment document). The reflective report should include your detailed reflection, supported with evidence from the online discussion. You should use appropriate theories, frameworks, models, that we have covered in

the module, to inform and justify your recommendations. ​
