Case Study
You can choose ONE of the following case studies to complete your assignments or you can discuss
another option with your trainer:
You and your business partner own a catering company. You have been employed to cater for a
formal dinner party for 10 people in the client’s home as a special New Year's Eve celebration.
You will be cooking an elaborate 6 course meal including appetizers and a palate refresher between
entree and dessert. There will be a cheese course and fine wines will be chosen to match each
course. Your budget will be $10,000.
You are responsible for the entire event including food, drink, wait staff and entertainment. You may
even need to hire some table ware and accessories to make the occasion really special.
Overseas Holiday
You have recently joined a boutique travel agency and, along with another new person, you have
been asked to put together a small group trip overseas for Skiing in the USA.
It will be a small guided group, with 1 guide and 12 participants (no children).
The expected duration is 3 weeks.
The idea is to make it a premium experience with no expense spared.
This is the first time your company has offered skiing trips to the USA so you will need to research
and contract suppliers.
You and your business partner own a kitchen renovation company. You have been contracted by a
client to renovate their kitchen, it is very old and needs to be gutted and refitted.
Your client has a budget of $30,000 including appliances.
You will need to provide alternate cooking facilities for the client whilst the renovation in underway.
For all of the above Case Studies consider yourself as the Project Manager.
