    Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think the questions are:

    Question 1: Write a report on

    a) Identify the strengths and weakness of the value chain (production, procurement, sales & marketing, human resource, and infrastructure). (24 marks)
    b) Discuss how to address the weaknesses of the value chain (production, procurement, sales and marketing, human resource, and infrastructure). (11 marks)
    c) Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of budgeting. (11 marks)
    Professional mark (4 marks)

    Question 3:

    a) Write analyses based on the Harmon Process Strategy of the three processes mentioned in the case using the figures in the table. (15 marks)
    b) Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of outsourcing legal department. (10 marks)

    Actually I didn’t manage to answer the third question. I spent too much time on Question 1 and Question 3. There was too much things need to write for Question 1 and also it took me sometime to calculate the flex figures at Question 2.I left with 30 minutes only to answer the third question. Read and absorbing the case study for 15 minutes, and left me with another 15 minutes to answer the third question. I didn’t remember what I wrote. But well I’m screwed. I left 25 marks of questions. *sigh
    For P3, time management is really hard.
