    Introduction – highlight relevant skills/expertise required
    Highlight problem solving examples
    Are we going to bear the cost of initial learning curve
    Provide details of previous jobs completed & referees

    3. Financial analysis, – The financial evaluation process provides a consistent framework within which to compare tender offers that vary in such critical factors as the timing of payment, contract price adjustment, foreign exchange exposure, initial purchase price and whole of life costs. The aim of financial analysis is to compare the value of each product over its expected useful life or services over the period of the contract using an appropriate Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) technique. The most common measures used are:
    • present value (PV) or net present value (NPV)
    • rate of return per annum
    • Payback period.
    • The financial analysis should be conducted separately from all other considerations, and include all matters which can be costed.

    Notes

    Company chosen was Qantas
    We can do it on a management training services for Qantas airline, as there is a current management issue with the Qantas with all the job cuts and the staff morale is really low. So we can do it on a managerial service to Qantas and we can say that it will provide a great incentives for them in order to gain competitive advantage against virgin airline.
