3. Evaluation of information, analysis and conclusions Fail
Reasons for fail and advice for improvement:
Even though you have put good effort in the project, there is still work to be done to achieve the pass standard in the following areas: Though your analysis appears well done, from time to time, readers of your reports will want to verify the accuracy of information you present, consequently it is good practice to include an appendix with the details of the interview i.e. with who and when it was taken place. In the absence of this information I am unable to verify the accuracy of your interpretations and analysis, consequently I cannot determine your contribution and so I have to fail you on analysis for this reason as well. Your business analysis areas are particularly very weak with only bullet points mentioned. In addition you have relied on your interview for most of the information which need to be verified. I would suggest you to drop primary data collection as it is completely acceptable to rely only on secondary sources in your next submission.
For this i’m not sure how to gain information on business analysis aspect such as the SWOT analysis and PESTEL analysis without the use of primary information. It is true that i did not mention the interviewee’s details in the questionnaire appendix but in the research report i did mention the interviewee’s name and designation. Also could you please let me know how i can validate my interview. I did use bullet points but made sure they were not one sentence answers.
6. Information gathering and Referencing Fail
Reasons for fail and advice for improvement:
You have included information from interviews. I could not see a statement of who these interviews were with. The value of information gathered depends on the insight your interviewees might have into the business development over the period. Please state the names and status of your interviewees and dates interviewed to support the validity of your research.
Would appreciate your help on this. I’m planning on resubmitting for the November 2014 session.
