    Thanks a lot for the valuable input.

    I understand that I have used more models, and I realize that Porters 5 forces model is not of much use for this topic.

    Ratios / trend analysis is important as it explains the impact on profitability,
    Force filed analysis is also critical, as it identifies the driver for / against the change,

    I have one question here. SWOT and PEST are two different business models, but they go along very well. Can I use them combined, as a single business model?
    I understand that SWOT and PEST analysis is important as it expands the strengths/opportunities/other factors which lead to the drivers for change and also explain the threats/weaknesses/other factors which entails the drivers against the change.

    Would love to hear further input and feedback on the matter.

    Thanks

    Yes I have covered the requirements in Part 1 and Part 2. I have used 5 different models for analysis, conclusions and recommendations, namely, Ratios/Trend, SWOT, PEST, Force Filed analysis and Porter’s five forces model. Therefore, I require more word count for Part 3. (I am working on topic 7)

    Thanks for your response.
