Objectives:
1. We will arrange a visit out to a local enterprise KPW in our community. 2. We hope to carry out a SWOT analysis of KPW. 3. I hope to improve my communication, organisational and mathematical skills while carrying out this investigation.
Research methods:
a) We will write a letter to request permission from our principal to visit KPW on Tuesday 29th March 2011 at 9:10 am. b) We will use the Internet to research KPW’s business. c) I will ring the bus company to arrange a date and time for transport to the company.
Analysis of Research:
a) We were granted permission from our principal for the date and time requested. b) We researched KPW’s business on the Internet and found that it is a family run business set up in 1941. c) I called Declan Fahy, the owner of the local bus company and booked a bus for the agreed date and time of our visit which would cost €20.
