MGMT 530 Week 7 Course Project (US Foods) FOR
MORE CLASSES VISIT www.mgmt530rank.com   Objectiv
es The objective of the Course Project is to
provide you with practice in creating,
justifying, and explaining a decision-making
proposal. All elements involved in the creation
of this proposal, from problem definition through
action plan, must be covered. Further, the
proposal, as constructed, must meet the tests of
any sound business plan, namely that it has
specific and measurable goals and objectives,
clearly defined activities, stipulated time
frames during which those activities will take
place, and clearly defined measurable outcomes.
The subject matter of your paper should be
business-oriented in nature and should avoid
decisions that depend largely on intuition to
solve.
