You must also provide an accompanying document that contains detailed speaker notes or a script for each slide so that the reader can follow along better. Your speaker notes should include your rationale and assumptions that pertain to each slide. You also need to have a minimum of 6–8 citations and references to support your direction.

Identify what systems and technologies are already in place for this organization (being sure to mention any uses of big data analytics, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence).

What existing strengths could the organization capitalize on to increase its competitive advantage? (1 slide)
How might the organization address its weaknesses or opportunities for growth and create competitive advantage through the use of IT/IS, specifically big data analytics, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence? (1–2 slides)
To further support your response, provide one or more examples of other organizations within the industry that saw an increase in their competitive advantage through use of one or more of those systems/technologies. (1–2 slides)
As a part of Porter’s Five Forces Analysis, you will also need to research other companies in the industry of the organization you select to get some insights on how they use IT/IS as part of their business strategy.
