CASE No. 1, Boeing: How Low Can They Fly

MGT 3020-3 (Are the names and matric numbers disguises?)

E-mail of sender representing the group: [e-mail]
Our group case 1 of 2
Due date: 27 July 2009 Date of submission: 27 July 2009.

Question:
(a) Identify one of the stakeholders in the case and discuss its relationship with Boeing. (Approximately 100-200 words, 1 ½ line spacing, 11-point, TNR, A4)

SAMPLE ANSWER
(a) There are many stakeholders that have an interest with Boeing: customers, employees, government, local community, stockholders, and suppliers.

We would like to discuss on customers.

The customers for Boeing are airlines for their airplanes and the United States Military for their defense systems. However, the customer relationship with Boeing is based on negotiations since it is a bid based process. Since the lowest bid will win the contract, it is critical for Boeing to have a strong positive relationship with the military. In addition, it is always helpful if you can also figure out what the competitors will bid based on insider information or the accumulation of thousands of pages of written documents.
