Content :

- Is it clear from reading your assignment that you read the case and understood what happened that led up to the Deepwater Horizon explosion?

- Did you ‘dig deeper'? Some people identify very technical issues - did you find the underlying reasoning that may have driven decisions to go a certain way technically?

- Did you keep your writing concise and to the point? Part of the intent of this assignment is an exercise in expressing important ideas in as efficient a way as possible.

- Was there a logical flow from your Issue Identification to your Proposed Solutions, to your Pros and Cons and to your conclusion?

- If you did have ‘extra' information to exhibit, did you put it in an Appendix rather than in the body of the text? Again, the focus is on a concise, crisp presentation of your arguments.

References and resources:

- Did you provide several relevant references that helped make your points? Of course you can use the main MIT/Sloan case as a reference, but did you reach out and find out more about the Deepwater Horizon from other sources?

Other things to consider:

- Did you add value from your own professional and/or personal experience?

- Did you make appropriate use of figures and tables in an appendix? Don't substitute quantity for quality here - one good, relevant, and meaningful small table is worth 100 randomly inserted graphs and charts.

- Did you really take on the viewpoint of a project leader here, and consider the way the team was motivated, the way the different stakeholders communicated (or didn't), the culture of the different companies?
