Presentation

You are a consultant hired by Marcus Kingo (see 1-888-Junk-Van case study) to advise him on solving his information technology problems.  To complete this presentation, you will need to select a system solution — either one from the case or one of your own. Marcus is very busy and has only 5 minutes to review the business case you have prepared for him. You PowerPoint slide should be persuasive and quantify the value the new system will yield.  While there are some numbers in the case and you can find published information about ERP systems, I expect that you will be using fictional numbers. 

Make use of charts to present data in PowerPoint slide.

Business people need financial estimates that they believe in order to make spending decisions.  They need to know that by buying your solution, they will have higher profits than if they don’t buy

Deliverable – 

  1. Prepare a 6 slide PowerPoint presentation that will provide Marcus Kingo with a business case for a new IT solution. The first slide should have a title for your presentation. Make the slides professional looking.  Where the case lacks detail you feel you need to do this, you can make up facts and figures — but make sure they are reasonable for Junk Van’s business situation.  Don’t, for example, suggest that a company with sales under $1M, spend over $1M on an IT system! Include only the most important points that the CEO and CFO should consider in making the decision to go forward with the project.  Do include a “close” (sales term for ending the slides by asking the decision makers to agree to go forward with the project).

Slides should have Project Investment and Benefits (Sales & Engineering, Production, Purchasing &Inventory, Financials)

2. A 1-page write up addressing the following topics:a) how you approached the presentation assignmentb) why you believe the benefits you claimed in your presentation are a realistic expectation for Junk Van
