CanGo, Inc., founded in 1996 by founder and CEO Elizabeth and her friend Andrew, is located in Hudson Valley. It is an online company that is able to offer a wide variety of books, music and videos to consumers and end users. In addition to that, the company also recently included online gaming service for a low subscription fee. Although it was stated in the video that the company quickly became the fastest growing company in Hudson Valley with its larger than expected growth over the last few years, it is clearly all by chance. They may have been growing tremendously, but the fact of the matter is that they don’t know which direction is best for the company to go.

NCsoft had achieved massive success and brand recognition after it had launched its initial games like Lineage 1, Lineage 2 and Guild Wars. But since then the tastes of its customers had been gaining diversity, therefore, the company needed to look out for ways to fulfill the demand for its products. The company later also developed other products within its simple product portfolio to increase its customer base and also to expand its company to acquire chunks of market share. Play NC was also one of the products it had launched which gained little success, almost negligible. Since then, the company has been focusing on its key issues which were also considered by its CEO. The first issue related to maintain the top position of the company in the leading game market. For this, the company needs to expand, especially by acquiring new subsidiaries in other parts of the world where it had not previously marketed its products. The company’s second most important issue is to counterattack the global competition coming from the gaming industry and also other related industries, which might threaten NCsoft indirectly. The company needs to create customer oriented products that feature their personal lives, so that they are attached to the product and to the company itself. The company needs to formulate a globalization strategy. They need to increase its customer base. They also need to diversify to increase the range of its offerings and by including elements that emotionally attach the customers to its products, NCsoft could fulfill its long term dream of becoming a leading player.…
We have received the request to evaluate the current management system and practices of Game Shop Inc. We have taken actions to identify problems and the areas of improvement based on the information provided. Our team has concluded maintaining a good reputation in the industry is a critical success factor for Game Shop Inc. because this industry is an oligopoly and anything that affects your reputation would affect your reputation with all members of the video game industry. We began by analyzing the current billing system. Past errors in the billing process have negatively affected your reputation and this could critically harm your future success in this industry. Then, we narrowed the potential causes of the problem down to the project managers lacking financial management skills, their compressed schedule, the deviation between the company policies regarding the purchase order system, and the current practice by the project managers, and the technical difficulties in the billing system. To satisfy the desired objectives, we have come up with three possible solutions: offer ongoing education to project managers to be capable of performing financial management, have a specialized billing system customized for Game Shop Inc., or integrate a new role under each PM to focus exclusively on the financial aspects of each project.
