I'm doing the case "The Dimensional Analysis Case and the DI Consulting" Can you please help me with this assignment so that I can understand it clearly.

1. Use the Facts, Data, Information column to summarize the current status of the dimension in the organization. Be sure to note the page # from which the information was drawn.

2. Use a coding system such as: +++ Very strong strength; ++ Moderate strength; + Low level strength; - Low level weakness; -- Moderate weakness; --- Strong weakness

3. Ask the five VIRO/E, S questions. Indicate V if valuable, I if imitable, R if rare, O or E if opportunity/positioned to exploit, and/or S for non-substitutable. Thus, some dimensions might be indicated as V only, some VI, VR, VO/E, etc. In some instances, there will be VIRO/E, S, i.e., a five-star rating.

4. Use the Implications column to summarize expectations (positive) or concerns (weaknesses esp.) regarding the issue if no changes are made. NOTE: ULTIMATELY MUST CONSIDER THE External Environment trends (i.e., from PEST and Five Forces analyses).

5. Use the column to think through recommendations for action. (Sustain may be an appropriate recommendation!)
