Strategic Recommendations

Strategic Recommendations

In developing this assignment, you have an opportunity to synthesize and apply the concepts, principles, and theories. You will be writing a paper in response to the following hypothetical situation.
Scenario:
You work in strategy planning for an organization. You?ve been in the organization in a variety of roles for five years. Recently, the senior leadership team determined that your organization needs a more effective strategy planning process, and you?ve gladly stepped into a role to help determine what the improved process or activities might be.
You?ve been asked by your manager to put together specific strategic recommendations to help the executive team better understand the concepts and principles of a well-designed strategy process. Further, these recommendations will include a set of examples of strategy planning activities specific to your organization.
Instructions:
Your well-written paper should include the following elements and meet the following requirements:
Your paper should be 6 pages (not counting the title and reference pages that you must include). Remember that your audience is a team of senior executives.
The choice of organization is up to you. Describe your organization in terms of its industry, type (closely held for-profit, publicly traded for-profit, not-for-profit, or public sector), headquarters and other locations, and size.
Present the strategy concepts, theories, and principles that you believe are important for the senior executive leadership team to understand. If there are contradicting opinions from strategy experts, you may want to present both sides in an objective discussion.
Present four examples of strategy planning activities from four different modules that are designed specifically for your hypothetical organization. For each of your strategy planning activities, include a clear and understandable title along with a brief overview description of one or two sentences for each.

Example: In this Strategy Planning course, the focus of Modules 2 and 3 is on Industry Analysis and Strategy. One example of an activity that would be relevant to content from those modules is a Demand and Competition Analysis.
Include the titles of the example activities, with more complete descriptions for each. Explain the benefits and value of each activity specific to your organization.
In addition to your textbooks, you must incorporate a minimum of four additional credible sources. Be sure these are included on your reference page(s).
Your paper should be formatted according to University academic writing standards and APA style guidelines.

how to maximize their daily profit

how to maximize their daily profit

Oilco produces two products: regular and Premium gasoline. Each product contains .15 gram of lead per liter. The two products are produced from six inputs: reformate, fluid catalytic cracker gasoline (FCG), isomerate (ISO), polymer (POL), MTBE (MTB), and butane (BUT). Each input has four attributes:

Attribute 1 Research octane number (RON) Attribute 2 RVP

Attribute 3 ASTM volatility at 70?C

Attribute 4 ASTM volatility at 130?C

The attributes and daily availability (in liters) of each input are given in Table 1.

The requirements for each output are given in Table 2.

The daily demand (in thousands of liters) for each product must be met, but more can be produced if desired. The RON and ASTM requirements are minimums. Regular gasoline sells for 29.49?/liter, premium gasoline for 31.43?. Before being ready for sale, .15 gram/liter of lead must be removed from each product. The cost of removing .1 gram/liter is 8.5?. At most 38% of each type of gasoline can consist of FCG.

A-) Formulate an LP whose solution will tell Oilco how to maximize their daily profit. Clearly define all decision variables.

B-) Solve your formulation in part A and find the optimal amount of gasoline to be produced. (Use OPL and attach the OPL files to your submission)

C-) Which of the regular or premium products are not used?

D-) If the Premium product cannot be produced more than 30000 liters, what would be the new optimal solution?
