Product: Sensors - Correct answer ✔Sensors are devices that observe physical conditions. For
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




example, the average cell phone contains dozens of sensors that allow it to interpret touch,
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




spatial orientation and signal strength. |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




New sensor businesses are created every day in areas as diverse as security, aeronautics and
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




biomedical engineering. ||||||




You are in a business-to-business market, not a direct-toconsumer market; the sensors your
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




company manufactures are incorporated into the products your customers sell. |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Foundation FastTrack - Correct answer ✔Every round, you and your competitors will have |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




access to an industry newsletter called the Foundation FastTrack. It is an extensive year-end
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




report of the sensor |||||| |||||| ||||||




industry. ||||||




It includes customer buying patterns, product positioning, public financial records and other
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




information that will help you get ahead. |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Every product's Customer Survey Score can be found in the FastTrack's Segment Analysis
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




pages. These scores determine sales distribution. In general, the higher the score, the better
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




the sales. ||||||




Situation Analysis - Correct answer ✔Will enable you to understand current market
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




conditions and how the industry will evolve in the next few years. It will assist you with your |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




operational planning.

Proformas & Annual Reports - Correct answer ✔Proformas are projections for the upcoming
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




year. The proformas will help you envision the impacts of your pending decisions and sales
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




forecasts. ||||||




Annual reports are the results from the previous year. The annual reports will help you
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




analyze last year's results. |||||| |||||| ||||||




Foundation Spreadsheet - Correct answer ✔The nerve center of your company |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




where you formulate and finalize management decisions for every
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




department.



Research & Development (R&D) - Correct answer ✔Your R&D Department designs your
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




product line. The department needs to invent and revise products that appeal to your
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




customers' changing needs. |||||| ||||||




R&D works with Marketing to make sure products meet customer expectations.
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




R&D works with Production to ensure assembly lines are purchased for new products. If
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Production discontinues a product, it should notify R&D. |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Marketing - Correct answer ✔Your Marketing Department prices and promotes your
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




products. It interacts with your customers via its sales force and distribution system.
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Marketing is also responsible for sales forecasts. |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Marketing works with Production to make sure manufacturing quantities are in line with
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




forecasts. Marketing's market growth |||||| |||||| ||||||




projections also help Production determine appropriate levels of capacity. If Marketing wants
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




to discontinue a product, it tells Production to sell the product's production line.
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||
