Industry/Market Research and Analysis

We are a temporary placement company that offers services to businesses in the medical, renewable, light industrial amongst others. We are seeking to deepen our presence in the markets where we currently operate in. Our operations span across several states in the United States but have the capacity to extend our presence across the entire country. We are looking to conduct market research for temporary placement services across several industries and that is the basis of this project. Furthermore, we are seeking to understand market entry strategies, pricing strategies along with the major players in that industry. Exploring and identifying specifics of current clients’ needs and challenges that are been experienced within certain market segments and potential possibilities there off. This project can also try to research the impact of different technologies that can assist in ensuring that we are market leaders in any sector that we choose to operate in. This project is about new service research just as much as a new product research. Identification of different trends within different markets is also an expected output from this project.

Enterprise resource planning and integration

Positions available: 4 (2 teams of 2 students each) A staffing organisation that is looking to create a fully integrated ERP system. Currently we have no way of accessing real time data for various aspects of our operations. This ERP system is expected to have a data warehouse, while every other aspect of the organisation operation will have to communicate with the database to be able to access certain data on real time, while some other data in intervals. This system is expected to integrate with our various business units which includes medical, assisted homes and renewables (addition units might be created with time) along with their departments which are recruitment, scheduling, client’s services, HR reports and accounts. All data is currently collected manually, so basically there will be need to determine data will be collected from all aspects of the operations. There will be need to also determine what kind of data warehouse to be created and the kinds of applications that will be used to communicate with the database. This system is needed to be able to make business decisions using real time data and so dashboards will be created for the different aspects of the organisation. It is very important to make this system very flexible so that it will be able to respond to the ever-changing needs of all stakeholders. First important MVP for this project will be the ability to setup our ERP system to be able to retrieve different forms of data from the different application or documents that clients provide us in an automated system.
