Assignment:

McGraw Hill wants to hire individuals to write Study Guides for ALL of their Business Text books. However, McGraw Hill does not have the staff to analyze the work that needs to be done to write Study Guides. They also do not have the staff to hire Study Guide Writers. As a result, McGraw Hill has decided to outsource this work to a consulting company.

To begin, McGraw Hill wants to hire a consulting company to do a PILOT Project. The pilot project would be limited to hiring 8 individuals to write four Study Guides (Chapters 1 - 4) from the NOE book. After the Pilot project is completed and assessed, then McGraw Hill intends to ramp up and hire Study Guide Writers for all of their Business Textbooks.

McGraw Hill is asking companies to bid on the PILOT PROJECT. The work details are below. However, in summary, the goal will be to hire 8 individuals to write 4 Study Guides for their Human Resources Book by Noe as a pilot process.

This is a great opportunity for your company. If your company is selected for the initial pilot work, then McGraw Hill might hire your firm when they eventually ramp up to write Study Guides for ALL their Business Books. This would eventually mean a multi-million dollar contract for your company.
