Weaknesses: You also identified your organization’s weaknesses in your SWOT analysis. Describe how your organization’s weaknesses make it difficult for the organization to compete. How will implementing the trend impact your organization’s weaknesses?
Recommendations: What recommendations can you make to help the organization make effective decisions to improve its weaknesses? What recommendations can you make to help the organization make effective decisions to capitalize on its strengths? How can these recommendations help the organization implement the trend and improve operations?
Risk: Managing risk is part of improving operations. What potential risk does the organization face in implementing the recommendations to improve operations? Why?
Tools and Techniques: What continuous improvement tools and techniques could you suggest to the company to use in implementing the trend? Why? Explain your suggestions.
Longevity: Does the trend you selected have longevity to support sustainable operations? Will it remain relevant in operations management? In other words, do you see this trend in operations management continuing? Support your opinion with research or real-world examples.
