1. A Canadian service organization competing in the transportation section has experienced exponential growth since its inception (a couple of decades ago). From their headquarters in Western Canada, they now spread their activities across the country, and they are ready to develop international markets (initially North America). One of the main issues they face is the large number of different solutions they use to run their processes (e.g., HR, Finance, Operations, and so on). These solutions are not compatible, and data is scattered across the different processes. Discuss how an integrated approach to enterprise systems can help them deliver their growth strategy.
2. As a manager you will be amassing large amounts of data. Like never, decisions are more complex and time sensitive. Discuss how a well-implemented business intelligence solution may help improve the effectiveness of your decisions. Feel free to think in terms of a specific business area, based on your interests (i.e., HR, Finance, Sales).
3. You oversee deploying a large digital transformation project into the Canadian operation of a transnational firm. One year after the official launch the adoption rate is abysmal (i.e., less than 10% of the workforce is fully utilizing the new platform and following procedures). After some inquiring and discussion, you realized part of the problem is resistance to change by local employees. How would you fix the situation? How would you prevent a similar situation from happening in future deployments? Feel free to focus on a specific industry (e.g., retail, manufacturing, hospitality) to contextualize your discussion.
4. Take one technology trend discussed in class (e.g., Al, Big Data, Block Chain, IoT, and so on), choose a specific industry focus (i.e., retail, manufacturing, hospitality, education, government) and discuss opportunities and challenges related to implementing a strategic, corporate-wide initiative to deploy a solution based on one of those technologies. Feel free to use a real company or examples to contextualize your discussion.
