Assessment Task 1: Prepare a Market Research Plan


Context

DMART is a home ware shop specialising in fittings, mirrors and other decoration pieces for
bedrooms and baths. The business has 15 stores based in Brisbane. The company's refreshment
seeks to expand the product spectrum to boost revenues and enhance sales. The project initiative is
to add lighting fixtures in the variety mix to meet this target. But the board would like to conduct
market analysis on this move in order to consider the likelihood of incorporating the latest
commodity to the current variety mix.
The strategy of the group wanted to outsource market analysis to a professional and reputable
agency, who could give the company great results with experience in multiple forms of research, so
they assume that an external consultancy will add impartiality material in the decisions to launch the
new product in the sales line.

Purpose:
To extend the store offer by including lighting fixtures in the assortment mix. Also to give the best
quality and quantity of the products with durability to the customers .

Scope:
Understanding the target market to create a new product in the assortment of products. And
increase the demand of there products.

Objective:
The research project has following objectives:

Expand the shop offer by the development of lighting fixtures in the assortment mix undertaken by a
specialist market research firm in the greater Brisbane region.
Growing and improving business profits by illustrating that the new product has a viable target
market.
To reflect on the data during the analysis by respecting the timeline.

Target Market:

In this part of the plan the team will identify the target audience. The group will be identified as a
research in the existing buyers of home wares including lighting fixtures. In that research the
descriptions of people, their behaviour, geographic, demographic and psychographics factors.

Sample Plan:

After identify the target audience is important breakdown each group to understand better who is
being target. To create the contents of the sample plan is important choose which kind of research is
better go through: qualitative, quantitative and multi-method.

Target group 1
Estimated population size: Value Sample size Value

Timelines/ Milestone:

Step 1 2 3 4 5
Preparation of research plan
Step 1- Preparation of the plan 1 week
Step 2- Choice of external consultants 2 weeks
Step 3- Resources identification 1 week
Step 4- Work on plan summary 1 week
Step 5- Conclusion of the project 8 weeks

Research Method:

The two methods which are used to explain data collection are primary and secondary analysis.
While secondary research has a strong set of data, for the following reasons, primary research
consists more of interviews and surveys that are the preferred research for this plan:
Have a sufficient number of instances to make the analysis relevant
The findings can be independently calculated.
The question must be more precise and the surveys and interviews should be checked with
consideration.

Budget:

The project budget is set at $15,000, which includes payments for external contractors and Via
external capital. Since the job is delegated to Delia Consultancy, there is no need to invest on
External capital, as the company has a market analysis team of its own. In addition, since primary the
analysis approach is to be adopted; secondary external services do not need to be accessed.

External Consultants:

To undertake the business mission, the company's policy analysis would prefer to hire a professional
external market research, so the findings would provide more objectivity in decision-making for the
external consultancy. That happens because external consultants will see convergent and divergent
solutions to the problem and come up with various outcomes, according to Reddy, 2016. A look at
the schedule and budget has been taken into account in selecting the external contractor.

Based on the review of the expertise, capability and budget of the three external consultants, it is
clear that Delia Consulting is the better choice, relative to the other two external consultants, to
work into the timeframe, budget and competence. It is also agreed that the market analysis initiative
would be consigned to Lombard Consultancy.
