Week 8 Tutorial Logbook - 25/11

In preparation for the eighth tutorial we finally managed to get into contact with our client. The meeting is due to take place on Wednesday the 30^th of November in The Candidates office which is based in Deansgate. During the week the group collectively thought of questions to ask the client and during the session we picked a selection we thought were appropriate.

During the session we looked at competitor analysis, PESTLE analysis and Porters 5 forces. After looking into these in detail, we decided as a group to create a PESTLE and to apply Porters 5 forces to The Candidate and the project we are carrying out. We also decided that this should be done after  meeting with our client, just to ensure that everything is as accurate as possible.

For the rest of the session we focused on preparing for our meeting the client. We discussed the questions with our tutor Dr Bex and tweaked them to make them more suitable. As we had some time left to spare before our closing stand up meeting, we discussed pending tasks and how we should go about completing them. This was a challenging task as we currently have little information, this problem should be resolved after meeting with our client.
