We want to simplify our product development and operational processes to make our business more efficient and reactive to customer feedback. The focus of this project should be on clearly identifying ways to improve our operations and efficiency and reduce time and cost allocations across our operations and suggesting actionable solutions.

Students should focus on:

• Developing a business plan
• Analyzing the competitive environment in our industry.
• Creating a Business Model Canvas for an existing or potential business and outlining strategic changes to our organization’s value proposition.
• Optimizing business processes and strategies.
• Competitor analysis
• Recommendations for scaling
• Recommending improvements to optimize our organization.

We hope to implement changes that will help us reduce costs and accelerate innovation for the upcoming monthly boxes we are rolling out in the next year.

Our goal at the end of this experience is:

• Strategy - For the student(s) to help us capture increased market share; for the student(s) to help us capture new revenue streams; for the student(s) to help us secure new partnerships.
• Operations - For the student(s) to help us implement more efficient and effective processes that maximize performance and customer satisfaction.
