The external environment refers to the forces and factors outside the organization but they are directly related to the organization's performance. Take any multinational organization working in Pakistan and briefly discuss how external environment affects its performance. Include at least four such factors.

Solution:-
I would like to choose ABN AMRO BANK and effects of Enternal environment on it. There are a number of challenges that have emerged following the most recent Macroeconomic developments in the domestic and global economy.

These are what I would like to call as external challenges.

S. No Factor Effect on the Organization
1

Interest Rate Variations
Depends upon KIBER (Karachi Inter Bank Exchange Rate) So ABN EMRO BANK cant select a fix interest rate whole year & tats cause variation in I.R.

2 Consumer-Durable Demand
The robust growth of auto and mortgage finance in preceding two years has significantly increased the prices of these assets, and thus has created inflationary pressures in the economy.

3 Equity Stock Investment Given the volatile nature of the equity markets, banks’ investment in equity stocks needs a cautious approach.

4
E-Banking
Another area where still a lot of progress should be made is the E-banking. This will not only lower the transaction costs but will also help in improving the customer services. The ATM penetration ratio is still quite low in Pakistan and the efforts are needed to not only further expand the ATM network more aggressively but also to improve upon the security standards.

5 Islamic Banking Islamic banking is a relatively new concept in our banking system. More and more banks are seeking license to open Islamic bank Branches. At present two full fledged Islamic banks having 37 branches are operating in Pakistan.

Discussion Objective:
To understand distinct marketing approaches which are used for the same product in its different stages of product life cycle and to realize the difference in these approaches. 

Point of discussion:
Assume that a group of business editorial writers related to leading newspapers of Pakistan are discussing the current business practices in Pakistan. You are there as a third party observer of this discussion and have to closely observe what they are talking. The description of discussion is as following. One of them initiated the discussion by saying that in the recent past it has been observed in the IT equipments market of Pakistan that used IT equipment are being imported and traded in local market at a massive level. The major IT equipments being traded are personal computers (both the desktop systems and laptops), printers, monitors, key boards and mouse pointers. Then he put forth a question that what can be the possible reason behind importing these used equipments? Are most of these products faulty and out of order and so these are firstly repaired and then sold in Pakistan or there is any other reason. Another question was raised that if these products are still usable then why the foreign countries sell these to Pakistan? One editor came up with the point that might be these products are exported to Pakistan because these products were at the last stage of their product lives and were declared outdated in the foreign countries. You have now been welcomed by them to bring your own flavor in discussion and to bring the discussion to a conclusive level as they are not clear about the whole happening. 

Discussion Agenda:
You have to give your opinion by responding to the questions raised and opinions given by them.

According to CIA World Fact Book, current population growth rate of Pakistan and China are 1.57% and 0.493% respectively. In both countries, ratio of females is more than males. Logically discuss that how this increasing ratio of females will affect the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of both countries?


Solution:


In these two countries (as well as others) women are given a lower standard of education and are usually either at home or doing low paid work. So unless they get their act together really soon there will be many vacancies for skilled workers which cannot be filled , the result will be a lower rate of increase of the GDP over the coming years compared to the rate it would rise if women were properly educated and had access to skilled work.

Many smokers claim that their habit helps them to relax, but there is no doubt that smoking is harmful to health and has a detrimental effect on athletic performance. Tobacco smoking is a major, preventable factor leading to death. Almost 20 per cent of deaths in the USA have been attributed to diseases associated with inhaling the products of combustion from the tobacco plant, Nicotiana tobacum. These products include nicotine, carbon monoxide, and tars.

The psychological and addictive effects of smoking cigarettes are attributed to nicotine, a drug that stimulates the central nervous system and enhances arousal. Nicotine affects blood pressure and heart rate directly, increasing the risk to smokers of coronary heart disease. It also affects hormone production. For example, cigarette smoking lowers blood oestrogen levels and therefore reduces bone mineralization. When inhaled, the carbon monoxide passes into the bloodstream where it combines with haemoglobin, reducing the ability of blood to transport oxygen. Among heavy, chronic smokers the reduction may be as much as 10 per cent, reducing their ability to take part in strenuous exercise, and accounting for the breathlessness experienced by most smokers. Tars inhaled during smoking are microscopic, organic substances which can stick onto cells in the lungs. Some tars release free radicals that may be carcinogenic and increase the risk of lung cancer. The high production of free radicals in smokers may explain why they break down vitamin C faster than non-smokers (vitamin C is one of the antioxidants that mops up free radicals). It is estimated that the vitamin C requirements of smokers may be twice as much as non-smokers. In the UK, the RNI for adult non-smokers is 40 mg but smokers require more vitamin C (possibly as much as an extra 80 mg); in the USA, the RDAs are 60 mg for non-smokers and 100 mg for smokers.

Smoking is highly addictive. Smokers who try to give up may suffer withdrawal symptoms including a persistent craving for tobacco, irritability, poor concentration, and weight gain. The weight gain is popularly attributed to eating more to compensate for the lack of oral gratification provided by smoking. However, the gain may also be due to metabolic changes because nicotine increases metabolic rate, particularly during exercise. It is sensible for ex-smokers to moderate the effects of weight gain by increasing their aerobic activity. They should also control their feeding habits carefully. For example, snacks should consist of nutritious, low calorie foods such as raw vegetables and fruit.

Mr. Ahmad is an overseas Pakistani and wants to settle down his family in his native country. He is facing problem in choosing the best available schools in the city for the admission of his child. By following what criteria/dimensions, he can judge the quality of educational services offered by different schools.


Last Date 25 October 2011


Solution:



Judgment for Quality of education


•To Participate
Parents have the right to refer their child for special education services, to participate in the development of the IEP and to be informed of all program options and alternatives, both public and nonpublic.


•To Receive Prior Written Notice
Parents have a right to receive prior written notice, in their native language, when the school district initiates or refuses their request to initiate a change in their child s identification, assessment, or educational placement in special ducation.


•To Consent
Parents must provide informed, written consent before their child is assessed or provided with any special education services. Parental consent must also be provided before any change in special education services may occur. The district must ensure that parents understand proceedings of the IEP team meeting including arranging for an interpreter for parents with deafness or those whose native language is other than English.


•To Refuse to Consent
Parents may refuse to consent to an assessment or the placement of their child in special education.


•To Be Given a Nondiscriminatory Assessment
Children must be assessed for special education through the use of methods that are not culturally biased or discriminatory.


•To Receive Independent Educational Assessments
If parents disagree with the results of the assessment conducted by the school district, they have the right to ask for and obtain an independent educational evaluation at public expense.


The parent is entitled to only one IEE at public expense each time the public agency conducts an evaluation with which the parent disagrees.


When a parent requests an IEE at public expense, the school district must, without unnecessary delay, either ensure that an IEE is provided at public expense, or request a due process hearing if the district believes their assessment was appropriate and disagrees that an IEE is necessary. The school district also has the right to establish the standards or criteria (including cost and location) for IEEs at public expense.


•To Access Educational Records
Parents have a right to inspect, review, and obtain copies of their child s educational records.


•To Stay in the Current Program If There is a Disagreement About Placement
If parents disagree with the district regarding their child s special education placement or a proposed change in placement, the law requires the student to stay put in the current program until the dispute is resolved.


•To Be Given a Hearing Regarding Disagreements About an IEP
Parents have the right to present a complaint relating to the provision of a FAPE for their child; to have an attorney, an advocate, and the student, if appropriate, present at the due process hearing; and to make the hearing public. Under certain conditions, the hearing officer may award, reduce, or deny the reimbursement of attorneys fees and fees paid to nonpublic institutions by parents in the settlement of a case. To request a due process hearing or to receive a complete notice of procedural safeguards related to a due process hearing, contact the Office of Administrative Hearings (see contact information below).


•To Receive Mediation
Parents are encouraged to consider settling disagreements regarding their child s special education program through voluntary mediation, a process through which parties seek mutually agreeable solutions to disputes with the help of an impartial mediator. Parents may seek mediation alone or separate from due process, or they may participate in mediation pending a due process hearing. Mediation cannot be used to delay parents right to a due process hearing.


•To File a Complaint Against Your School District
If parents believe their child s school district has violated the law, they may file a complaint with the California department of Education. The Department must investigate complaints alleging violations of noncompliance with IDEA, state special education laws, or regulations, and issue a written report of findings within 60 days of receiving the complaint.


•To Be Informed of School Discipline and Alternative Placement
There are specific rules regarding the suspension and expulsion of students with IEPs. Generally, a student with a disability may be suspended or placed in an alternative educational setting to the same extent that these options apply to students without disabilities.


If the student with a disability is in such a placement for more than ten days, an IEP meeting must be held to consider the appropriateness of the child s current placement and the extent to which the disability is the cause of the misconduct. Regardless of the child placement, the district must provide FAPE


•To Be Informed of Policies Regarding Children Who Attend Private Schools
School districts are responsible for identifying, locating and assessing students with disabilities enrolled in private schools by their parents. However, school districts are not required to provide special education or related services to these students. There is no entitlement for services, though some private schools and students attending private schools may receive some services from the school district.

Semester “Fall 2011”
“Principles of Marketing (MGT301)”
Assignment No. 01 Marks: 20

“Case Study”
Khurarrianwala (Faisalabad) is well known as an Industrial Hub in Pakistan. Many Textile firms are manufacturing different products and mostly export these products to foreign customers. Merchandisers of each industry send their product’s samples to foreign customers for approval of product design, shape, and quality etc. Till 2004, most of the industries had to go to FedEx office Faisalabad to handover their parcels to be delivered to the foreign customers. By analyzing the growing demand in this area, DHL opened its office in Khurarrianwala in 2004. DHL offered the logistic services to all firms for sending their product samples to foreign customers. Textile firms in that area used to hand over their parcels to DHL at their Khurrarianwala office and the daily closing time of sample collection was 05:00 PM. Some of the students of a University located in Faisalabad conducted a research and found that 70% market share in that area was captured by DHL till end of 2005. At the end of 2006, all firms switched over from FedEx to DHL. The major reason of switch over was the distant location of FedEx as it was 40 KM away from the area. Afteranalyzing this situation; FedEx started to collect samples (parcels) from each and every firm in that area and created the competition for DHL. FedEx got the 90% market share in that area at the end of 2009 but DHL had only 10% market share at that time. Customers are more satisfied with FedEx as many merchandisers said that FedEx delivery system is bit fast.

Answer the following questions:
1. How could DHL have got the lost customers back?
2. If DHL had also started collection of samples from every firm then how would FedEx have retained its competitive edge?

Question No.1
How could DHL have got the lost customers back?


Solution:
In order to get back customers, DHL have to take some necessary steps. DHL have to chose Marketing mix also known as 4 P’s. DHL should provide home collecting facility so that customer vusolutions get ease and chose their service. Apart from providing home collecting facility DHL should give different kinds of offers and discounts.

1) The right product
2) Sold at the right price
3) In the right place
4) Using the most suitable promotion.


The Right Product:
The DHL service should have the right characteristics - for example, it looks good and works well. The price is right. Customer need to pay in large quantities to produce profits.

All aspects of the marketing mix, the price is that it creates sales - the rest are costs. Price of the product is vusolutions clearly an important factor in the value of sales. In theory, the price is really determined by the discovery of what customers perceive the value of the sale.


Right Place:
Although the figures vary greatly depending on the service, about one-fifth the cost of the service goes to the customer.
