YOU WILL BE DOING PARTS 6, 7 AND 8. AGAIN, PARTS 6, 7 AND 8.
Part 6. Solution and its Implementation (40 Points)
This segment should outline your recommended solution to the identified issue. The solution will be one or a combination of the solutions provided in Part 5. This part should be specific, stating what benefit plans are recommended, timing for implementation, and in what sequence. It includes not only what should be done, but also how it should be done. A specific solution should indicate what benefit is most appropriate for the issue and how it will be implemented in the organization. Some questions to keep in mind when writing the solution section include the following:
Has an awareness of the problem of implementation been addressed?
Have you been too general?
Does the solution and implementation address the issues identified earlier?
Does my solution take into account the identified pros and cons?
How will you evaluate the effectiveness of the implemented benefit plan?
What process checks or procedures will I put in place to institutionalize the improvement?
Was the realism of your proposed action plan assessed? For example, is there adequate time, money, and other resources for your solution?

Best Practices
The following are best practices that should be used in preparing this paper:
Cover Page – Include your name, who you prepared the paper for, course name, and date.
Table of Contents – List the main ideas and section of your paper and the pages in which they are located. The illustrations should be included separately.
Introduction – Use a header on your paper. This will indicate you are introducing your paper.
Sub-Title each section ? Use the section titles to indicate in the body of your paper each individual section (i.e. Statement of Issue, Literature Review, Issue Analysis, etc.) Each section should be clearly marked.
Body of Your Report – Use a header titled with the name of your project. Example: ?The Development of Hotel X – A World Class Resort?. Then proceed to break out the main ideas. State the main ideas, state major points in each idea, provide evidence. Break out each main idea you will use in the body of your paper. Sub-titles will help divide each individual section; separate group of paragraphs; or headers. Include the information you found during your research and investigation.
Summary and Conclusion – Summarizing is similar to paraphrasing but presents the gist of the material in fewer words than the original. An effective summary identifies the main ideas and major support points from the body of your report. Minor details are left out. Summarize the benefits of the ideas and how they affect the industry.
Work Cited – Use the citation format specified in the Syllabus.
Additional hints on preparing the best possible project.
1. Apply a three-step process of writing: Plan, Write, and Complete.
2. Prepare an outline of your research paper before you go forward.
3. Complete a first draft and then go back to edit, evaluate, and make any changes required.
4. Consider using visual communication to further clarify and support the written part of your report. You could use example graphs, diagrams, photographs, flowcharts, maps, drawings, animation, video clips, pictograms, tables, and Gantt charts.
