Question:
You are a Project Manager working for an Ontario hospital of your choice. The hospital administration has decided, after many months of deliberations, to consider the implementation of the block-chain method into their record keeping. You are expected to oversee the implementation of this change, but first write a report discussing the cost, how long it would take, any potential problems, any new hires needed, etc. Many of these aspects would depend on the hospital you choose - so conduct research into the size and profile of the hospital of your choice first.
Your Research Report Proposal must include the following components:
Introductory paragraph (no heading)
Problem statement
Opportunity Statement
• Topics to Investigate
Research Methods Used
• Qualifications/ Facilities/ Resources
• Work Schedule
YOUR TASK
Put down a research proposal addressed to your boss/upper management, presenting your research report approach, and trying to get their feedback and approval before you start working on the full report.
• Rationale: since writing an analytical research report is a time-consuming process, at work, you would typically submit such a proposal first - in order to get the permission to spend a number of working hours/ days to produce the full report.
REOUIRED LENGTH AND BASIC FORMAT:
•Proposal Length: Two -three pages in typical block format. The one section that will be significantly longer if your group is larger than a pair is the Qualifications/ Facilities/ Resources section, since you will have to mention each team member's credentials (qualifications).
• All the sections should have clear headings adapted to the content, with the exception of the introductory paragraph, which should not have a heading. Use lists in bullet-point form whenever necessary (within some of the sections of the document - such as when you list topics and subtopics you will investigate).
• Set up the document in memo format, since it is an internal document.
• Apply all of the principles of effective professional communication discussed so far. Edit your text carefully to eliminate stylistic problems such as wordiness, vagueness, informal writing, subjective writing, etc., as well as punctuation, grammar, word choice, and spelling errors.
