Use a fictious company that HAS implemented a sophisticated systems approach to management:
If you happen to work in an organization that applies a systems approach to management, you may choose to evaluate
the existing management systems of the firm in relation to the materials presented in the course. Your goal for the session
will be to develop an overall written evaluation and presentation to be presented to management. If you do not have an
appropriate organization in your experience to discuss, you can develop your project through research by learning about
an organization through resources available in the library and by interviewing individuals who work for your organization of
choice (Hint: companies that are part of OSHAs VPP program follow a systems based management approach to safety).
In various units in this course, you will be asked to share information about the firm to determine the level of congruence
between the facilitys management approach and what you have learned about the management systems approach up to
that point.
Assignment for Option 2:
Please provide the following sections in your essay:
Identification of the organization: Identify an organization that you would like to evaluate, and identify the scope of
the activity (the organizations function or business area). Be sure to see above information regarding proprietary
and confidential information.
Reasons for choosing the organization: Describe why you chose to evaluate this organization, and where you
think the organization stands in relation to utilizing a management systems approach to quality and ESH. Also,
discuss where you think the organization is in relation to considering or implementing a systems approach.
Information sources: Identify information sources which are available to you including documentation (procedures,
quality/ESH manual, work instructions), personnel for interviews, records, or web page information. Include a
description of the level of confidence that the information will be complete and accurate in providing evidence of
the management system. Also, describe your process for reviewing the information and data.
Your response should be a minimum of 700 words in length, not counting references listed at the end or repeating of the
question, and cited per APA guidelines. You are required to use at least your textbook as source material for your
response. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have
accompanying citations.
