Awesome food strongly believe that management responsibility social ethics are
obligatory to raise the performance and reputation of the franchises are as follow because
it helps to develop customer service oriented culture with special emphasis on customer
care and convenience and seeks to maintain high standard of survive now for that purpose
we implies two certain ethical approaches
Right approach
At Awesome food every employee who’s working in the organization has fundamental
rights like
• Awesome food gives free speech right to employee who report legal
violation by their employees
• Awesome food gives the right of freedom of conscience
• At awesome food there is the right of privacy, personal matter of every
employee are protected and not disclosed to any one

a leave so we can facilitate him
Justice approach
Awesome food impose and enforce rules fairly and impartially .at awesome food every
single job has its importance like if there is a maintainer boy has been employed in an
organization then its obvious that there is a need of him so we also treat him with justice
and take care of his rights
o It provides the same rate of pay to the individuals who are similar
in their level of skills, performance and responsibilities
o At awesome food we try to create the “we” culture not focus on” I
“where there is a mutual trust and respect for each other
• Distributive approach
At awesome food we don’t take biased decisions like if any
employee is the nephew of chairman or any other top manager and
the other is not they will be treated equally in case of distribution
of rewards, incentives and procedurals duties as well
• Procedural approach
At awesome food the rules and regulations are same for every
employee’s .we hire the employees with the bench standards we
made and there will be no variation according to various changing
situations
Utilitarian approaches
We believe majority is authority so we follow the democracy principle in setting up the
rules and regulations .Regarding this we use quantitative method for ethical decisions to
satisfy the maximum number of employees in an organization and to provide the greatest
goods for greatest numbers .And by following this approach where we need the large
number of employees so we hire their accordingly and where we need the large
workforce we shift it to the franchises or departments where their need is required and it
also depends upon the volume of sales where sale is high there ill be large workforce as
well .

Whistle blower
It can be a key part of any company’s ethics programs because they are willing to step
forward and expose unethical behavior no matter what the cost professionally or
personally .like in awesome if the team leader observes the unethical behavior of the
assistant manager like he smokes in workplace area and he doesn’t provide the team
leader the balanced amount of money against our work or he shows the favourism in
procedure following rules then team lead will tell to the restaurant manager about it then
that team leader would be named as whistleblower.
In case of any mishaps in the “AWESOME” fully investigation be made by the authority
before coming on the conclusion.
• First investigation team evaluates ethical issue criteria. At what level problem is
and be solved.
• After that team take every and each employee in consideration regarding
problematic situation. Whether how decision will affect every employee.
• Their consequences should be judged by the investigation team not to harm the
interest of innocents.
• In “AWESOME” all the decisions are made according to proper statement
developed. So there is no chance of any favoritism. Because first rule in that is to
secure rights of employees. Decisions also be made on the judgment of one’s
character and value.
• So all the final decisions are made by the higher authority in that enterprise.
Because higher management is our sole power authority and more creative. They
always make decisions according to facts and figures mentioned in ethical policy
statement.
Office Romance
“AWESOME” is very much clean from these kind of disasters. Because we hired men
employees, there is no lady recruit in our franchises. And we also take consideration not
to hire any blood relation together, as they could affect their performances due to
personal conflicts.
Gift Offering
We never allowed any person to exchange any kind of personal activity in our enterprise.
Like giving gifts to each other unless it is the organizational party or event.
Social Responsibility
It is our main duty not to lead any activity which is harmful to people. Because they are
the main source of our values. So we developed our factories out of stations in keeping
view not to harm pollution. As it losses waste of food creation and effect the
environment. Our brand name is core of our enterprise. So we selected it by taking
consideration every aspect. “AWESOME” reflects that every thing be made in our
enterprise is awesomely pure and secured from any environmental consequences.
• In addition to above these we focus on the customer mania plus like the people
who cannot walk we give them wheel chairs to get to us and made different paths
for their arrival.
(CHAMPS)
AWESOME CULTURE
About our culture we are very conscious and optimistic about it . we made a culture like
which reflects a family .our culture is most likely to encourage ethical standards is one
that is high in risk tolerance, control and conflict tolerance our employees in such a
culture are encouraged to be aggressive and innovative and are aware that unethical
practices will be discovered and feel free to openly challenge expectations they consider
to be un realistic or personally desirable.
Visible culture
In it, we are being recognized as a organization who has dress code and
good customer relationship management which iz a visible thing from
which a layman can perceive something about us
Exposed value
It is totally opposite to the visible scenario, like the things which are not
be recognized by the lay man can be called as exposed values like how
employees thinks about the customers in real manner what is the reason
for the existence of this organization
SOCIALIZATION PROCESS
Pre arrival
We focus on the close contact with the customers like what they say about our products
what they feel what they want what the change they desire because these kind things we
believe if does well then a person will come in the awesome with optimistic attitude
Encounter stage
And now when he encounters in real manner with the awesome then the things he heard
and listened from the media and people his mind works accordingly to it so,we full
heartedly focus and struggle on this part because that one person is linked with 1000
people and he unintentionally going to do the buzz marketing so we do care about our
credibilitys
Metamorphosis stage
After it when he perceived the things now he is going to make the decision which is not
in our control like what should he say about it when he came back the two things are
going to be happened whether he is being inspired or not .basically the decision process
about an organization takes place in this stage.
• At awesome we have separate offices of proper size for the restaurant manager as
well as for the assistant managers etc.
• At awesome we have a separate neat & clean kitchen where foods been cook n
stored. We take care of cleanliness in a kitchen as well as in ingredients.
• At awesome we follow a self service concept we don’t hire waiters for service.
Awesome heroes:-
• In every organization there are some heroes who really work hard for the
organization and give their 100% for the development of an organization and will
be awarded with some incentives or reward. Now at awesome we have different
ways to appreciate our heroes.
Awesome Language:-
• At awesome food there is not a specific language for employees to adopt like e.g.
Microsoft employees adopt has a unique language called work judo” or death
march for shipping new products etc. but eventually at awesome food we develop
different terms to describe things equipment like NCR machine etc . or products
related to our business.
• On the other hand employees must know Urdu and English as a compulsory
language to communicate with the customers. Urdu because its our national and
officially language and English because it’s a international language and the most
important thing is that a person who can speak English he can treat our foreigners
customers in a better way and can communicate easily but if they cant speak
English fluently they must understand it they should be good listener.
Leadership:-
Being a important function of management leadership is also important at awesome. At
awesome manager motivate employees, team members and influence individuals or team
as they work and deal in any way with employee behavior issue and concerned with
employee job satisfaction that they are satisfied with the job getting salary on time.
• At awesome food employees must create a humor , and ease in the workplace
• Employs should not involve in any kind of conflicts with in the organization and
resolve issues based on the good of the organization verses personal interest.
Types of culture:-
Strong culture:-
At awesome food we a strong culture Employees are required to follow rules and
regulation Managers supervise employees closely to ensure that there are no deviations
management is concerned with high productivity. At awesome food our strong culture
key values are following:-
• Commitment
• Integrity
• Fairness
• Teamwork
• SERVICE
At awesome our strong culture represent by our rule that shows in an organization that
out side food is not allowed at awesome food. People cannot bring in outside food in an
organization. At awesome employees know what they are supposed to do and what is
expected of them so that they can act quickly to take care of problem.
Culture uniformity:-
At Awesome food the whole organization follows the same culture there is not
particularly separate department culture at awesome. The whole organization must follow
the same customer responsive culture, same dress code, and same working conditions.
Involvement culture:-
• Direct competitions
• Indirect competition
Direct competition:
KFC is upscale Pakistani restaurant that has a limited selection of food dishes. Although
the selection is limited and pricey, the dishes are quite good.
Mc Donald’s is another fast food provider in Pakistan so this also a direct competitor of
Awesome and it has a decent food selection however the quality is in consistent.
Indirect competitors:
The indirect competitors are local fast food provider and Bamboo.
Awesome does not consider Bamboo as its direct competitors. As Bamboo has a limited
menu and cater to different segments of society e.g. Bamboo is catering to lower middle
society of Pakistan..
Now awesome food provides more quality, taste and freshness and most upscale
services and charging acceptable prices. Awesome food is introducing a new item
“Vegetable Burger”, Burgers in different categories at different prices with different
combination of vegetables Vegetable Burger, Chicken Vegetable Burger, and Beef
Vegetable Burger with even more attractive and charming taste. As compared to the
competitors.
Planning:-
Planning's role is to ensure that our underlying business performance is analyzed &
understood, that our business & units have suitably stretching performance targets and
that our continual drive to improve our business returns is well on track. Planning
involves the setting goals establishing strategies for achieving those goals and developing
a set of plans to integrate and coordinate different activities seem pretty complicated.
Now at awesome we got the different perspectives of planning which are as follows:-
• At awesome we planned to compel the managers in a way that they would be able
to see ahead look forward to change and think about the impact of change by
reduces uncertainty.
Type of Planning:-
Formal Planning:-
At awesome we have followed the formal planning:-
At awesome goals are in written form and they shared with the organization because the
reason behind that is If the employees don’t know what they are working for? What they
are trying to accomplish? How they can contribute to achieve their objectives? How the
work efficiency of different work units can be raised. The organization cannot achieve its
goals. At awesome now under formal planning plans develop by top level managers
flowed down to all the organizational levels.
Objectives of Awesome food:-
Our Supreme objective is to provide best meals, high quality burgers on reliable prices &
services. We are committed to offering superior, differentiated meals to help you manage
your money better. As well as to build and maintain the organizational performance with
different aspects.
To build the strong and long term relationship with the customers.
• At awesome Strategic planning helpful for having the solutions for products,
policies and procedures.
Resource allocation:-
At awesome the resource allocation involves performing an activity and making of an
financial plan and the programming of subordinates work.
FINANCIAL PLAN
1.Control
2.Planning
Control:
The overall role of Control is to ensure that our financial statements are accurate and
reflect a true and fair view of our business performance. It ensures that all
transactions entered into by awesome are appropriately recorded. It also has a
responsibility to ensure that our assets are protected, through appropriate controls and
processes.
Planning:
Planning's role is to ensure that our underlying business performance is analyzed &
understood, that our business & units have suitably stretching performance targets and
that our continual drive to improve our business returns is well on track.
· Business Planning, who manage the total business and individual unit budgeting
process, as well as providing commercial analytical support to our Operators
· Strategic Planning, who drive the long range planning process, and who support
strategic projects around the business
· Financial Investment, where our focus on returns is displayed through control of our
investment processes
Implementation:-
Authority:
As every Organization At awesome every plan needs the official approval before
implementation and this thing always done by the top management of the organization
e.g. CEO, General Manager.
Persuasion:-
Persuasion involves the satisfaction to employees So awesome always take care of
employees and their satisfaction we try to avoid the lack of trust and understanding in the
organization and focus on the employees involvement and negotiations.
Policy:-
Policy is basically a guideline for making decisions and to maintain check and balance of
given persuasion enough benefits to be filled. E.g. Customer always comes first and
should always be satisfied.
Feed Back:-
Now at feedback we got the Reponses of success or failure of plan after implementation
How much plan or decision was effective? And if there is any problem arises in it correct
it properly.
Decision:-
When we have to choose from one or more alternatives becomes decision.
Programmed Decision:-
Programmed decisions are basically those decisions which we do in our daily activities or
so called recurring decisions.
Now at awesome we also make different program decision e.g. If a server in a awesome
spills the drink or food on the customer clothes and the manager found an offend
customer and something needs to be done because drink or food was frequently spilled.
Now manager has to do something to handle this situation to keep the prudent
environment in an organization. So what manager can do? So manager offers to have the
clothes cleaned on an awesome expense. Awesome affords all the expense in the cleaning
of a customer clothes. For this purpose managers do not need to make a list of solutions
to solve this problem because this problem does not need to have the alternative decisions
because these kinds of problems are well easily defined and uncomplicated problems and
can find solutions easily.
At awesome we also make non programmed decision e.g. whether to build a new
franchise of an awesome in a particular city or the area of the city by having and
calculating all the facts and figures regarding that What would be the volume of sales?
Competitive analysis and how can we easily modify our facilities and operations out
there and much more etc... After having all the information regarding these kinds of
things we build a new franchise in a particular city or somewhere in the area of the city.
So for this purpose Any decision would be taken either in the form of structure a new
franchise or not will be called non programmed decision and these kinds of decision
usually have done by the top management of an organization because for this we need a
precise and exclusive decision .
Certainty decisions:-
In a certainty decision making managers can make precise decisions because all outcome
are identified so it becomes easy got the managers of an organization.
At awesome we also have certainity6 decision in which manager realizes to maintain and
coordinate different activities between different level of management in an organization
On the other hand just in time and to improve the performance of an organization
restaurant manager establish suggestions and comments box in an organization in which
an organization has an Questionnaire in which the customer pass their comments about
organization that how they serve their customers what about the quality of the products ?
Does the prices of the products are reasonable? Now on the basis of the results of this
Questionnaire that what has been saying by the majority of the customers Restaurant
manager can improve the working condition of an environment due to this fact he can
make accurate decision.
Uncertainty decision:-
In the uncertainty decision managers do not have relevant information regarding problem
or the problem related information be vague and unclear in this case managers do not
have the choices of alternatives.
At awesome We face the uncertainties decision in a way that if any employees comes to
the manager and complain the other employee that he is doing something wrong not
fulfilling his duties properly or trying to create a awful environment in an organization .
At this stage manager must not agree with him on first sight and managers must identify
the obligation because may the person is doing all this because of his jealousy with him
on the other hand manager must analyze that either the information is correct or not that
Does the person is creating trouble in an organization or not ? By doing self observation
or anything else so after analyzing the situation then manager must take a step that either
the employee been rusticated or not as well as there should not be environmental
certainty.
Risk:-
Risk is the situation in which the manager is able to estimate the odds of certain
outcomes.
Now at awesome whenever we take any kind of risk regarding production and
manufacturing process or introducing a new technology like upgrade NCR Machines into
the business. We explore that what we could lose or what might be hurt .Whether we
reach our goals in another way and observe all those factors involve in this risk like the
timing the people changes will it entail and the benefits. Now after getting observing
facts we decide to take this risk or not.
Decision Scope:-
Now in the awesome we have the wide decision scope we see the effects of our decision
in organization that how much our decision is strong or accepted by the employees for
this purpose we do employees involvement in an decision and do negotiate with the
employees and analyze that what would be the impact of decision on the employees.
For this purpose we need to compete with our competitor by doing some actions like In
door and outdoor advertising and sales promotion skills which helpful to attract
customers again towards awesome. Which are as follows:-
• Quantity discount:-
At this stage awesome offers quantity discount which is the specific reduction in price for
specific customers first of all those customers who visit the awesome regularly and for
those customers who buy the large volume of meal from awesome .So all these type of
customers will get the especial relaxation in price.
• Promotional allowances:-
Awesome offers promotional allowances price reduction in their products specially to
dealers just to motivate them and for the efficiently participating and favoring in
advertising campaigns and sales supporting programs of awesome so by doing this effort
awesome can get its position back and increase profitability ratio.
At awesome while we communicate with the other franchises of awesome and got the
problem that the one of the new franchise of awesome which has been made yet has got
the problem. The franchise generates large volume of sales and got the huge customer
responses but the problem is that the middle managers include assistant managers are not
able to operate and coordinate activities regarding sales and customer responses in a
efficient manner although they are three in numbers but still they are facing problem now
for this purpose they have to communicate with the other franchise just to recruit the new
and sharp assistant manager from the other franchise. Now on the other hand in this case
The other franchise who generates the average revenue and do not have much stress in
their franchise regarding sales and customers relationships and they have three assistant
managers in their franchise but they can operate activities with two managers for a while
now in this situation the third assistant manager of this franchise been sent to that
particular franchise who got the problem just to satisfy and solve that problem and this is
the most good enough decision for that kind of situation .
The advantages we have in our awesome food related to the decision making group
are as follows:-
Devil’s Advocate:-
In an organization devil’s advocate is the person who make criticism on a particular idea
just to reach the best idea or the solution for the problem and this criticism usually in
favor of the organization.
Now at awesome when top management of an awesome decided to make a new product
development introducing a new product scheme of vegetable burger in an awesome. On
the other hand the general manager of the awesome raise the issue regarding competitors
and plays an role of devil’s advocate at that time by saying that the Subway has started
vegetable burgers it will be threat for our product because Subway has already
established a strong market position and enjoying a high customer loyalty. Now for this
purpose awesome need to come with the strong strategy and market position and should
introduce the vegetable burger with a rational price ,quality, and on time delivery 17
min approx Product will also be designed for those who are health cautious. Now after
implementing these things we are able to reach our goal and make a successful new
product development.
Delphi Technique:-
Now at awesome we use Delphi technique in an organization in which restaurant
manager plays an important role in an organization At awesome there is a proper
elegance of furnishing there is proper sitting arrangements there is no congested place for
customers but even though with the passage of time increasing competition day by day
Technology advancement ,and as awesome volume of sales is also increasing rapidly
then due to this fact we need to present our organization in more efficient manner and we
have to do some changes in the franchise related to sitting arrangement and furniture and
come up with more stylish furniture and sitting arrangement for this purpose the
restaurant manger starts negotiations with the assistant managers and other employees of
the franchise via Questionnaire and by email in which restaurant manager ask them about
changes in an organization regarding furniture and sitting arrangement that should we
change our franchise furniture upgrade it or not the answer will be in yes or no? Now if
the majority of them say yes? And are in favor of changing the furniture then the
restaurant manager should take an action on it and sent this document to top management
for consideration and approval and for implementation on this application.
Strategic management:-
SWOT Analysis:-
The purpose of SWOT is the matching of specific internal and external factors, which
creates a strategic matrix and which makes sense. SWOT analysis determines what may
assist the firm in accomplishing its objectives, and what obstacles must be overcome or
minimized to achieve desired results. One commonly used strategic tool is the SWOT
Analysis which is used to analyze those factors that may influence success.
S: Strength
W: Weakness
O: Opportunities
T: Threats.
STRENGTH:-
• The business dedication to the customers need through quality customer service.
• The staff employees of the business are well trained qualified and experienced.
WEAKNESS:-
• Awesome do not have Strong Brand equity Being the new one If the awesome
launches new product development like the combination burger with vegetable is
very unique so it will some how it will difficult for awesome to get new
customers attention.
OPPURTUNITIES:-
THREATS:-
• Now a days flour prices are high This will affect raw material cost due to which
our production cost will be rise up and in result we have to rise up our prices or
our profit margin will reduce.
Scanning:-
Scanning is a component which identifies those factors which directly or indirectly effect
the organization. At awesome we have different factors which directly or indirectly effect
it and usually these factors are related to the general environment. Which are as follows?
Economic Conditions
Political/ Legal forces
Social Conditions.
Demographic Condition
Technological changes
Economic Conditions:-
Economic conditions are very important to see for doing any business in a particular
country. Now In a Pakistan there are many implications in the economic sector and the
growing food industry in Pakistan also face different economic circumstances so same as
this can be happened with awesome food because now a days there is a Shortage of flour
and sugar in a country due to this fact the prices of flour and sugar are raised due to
which production cost been rise up. So due to this fact this fluctuation can effect the
awesome in a way that the production cost of awesome can be raised after facing this
fluctuation and the result of this may be in result of increase in prices of awesome
products. On the other hand the inflation rate increases it may also a cause of increases in
sugar and flour prices and can be a source of trouble for awesome production process.
Socio-cultural Conditions:-
Socio-cultural conditions also does matter to operate any business in a country and there
has always been specific different social trend regarding food industry and for awesome
as well. Socio cultural condition can effect the awesome in a way that those people who
do not like unhealthy fried fast food or the health conscious persons will not be attracted
towards awesome and the people who just like home cooked meals or the desi food will
not be attracted towards awesome. On the other hand a major social trend in a rural areas
of Pakistan still presenting guests with typical village food like lassi and saag due to this
fact those people who like typical village food even though they migrate from rural to
urban still like that food .Socio culture also relates to the changing customer demand .So
in this case awesome will also face trouble to attract those type of customers.
Demographic Conditions:-
Now the demographic conditions encompasses trends in the physical characteristics of a
population such as age, geographic location income etc Now awesome also majorly
target specific group of people 13-19 years for children and also target adults from the
age of 20-50 years now if people of these age group do not attracts towards awesome
then there’s been a somewhere problem so managers must organize and control this
factor. On the other hand awesome usually target average income level now if the income
level of people fluctuates or goes down then their demand for the awesome products will
be decreased so this may affect the awesome food.
Technological Changes:-
Now technological changes are obligatory for recombining existing knowledge to
develop new process and materials. Now at awesome whenever we try to develop new
product we must go through the specific process in which we involve idea generation in
which we get ideas as much as we can using internal and external sources after that
Secondly, we use idea screening in which we drop down poor ones now after getting the
idea we develop specific strategy and do business analysis of that product on the other
hand we do technological changes regarding machinery by upgrading NCR ,Credit
machines just to meet the demand and to facilitate the employees .
Monitoring:-
Now after identifying those factors and conditions which directly or indirectly effect the
organization we must keep on eye on those factors Now awesome keep on eye every
external general environment like awesome keep on eye on economic sector to see and
analyze economic fluctuations and problems arises like prices of flour and sugar raised
and analyze also its effect on awesome on the other hand must aware of the government
policies or tax rate polices regarding sales tax or duties to run the business in a
profitability ratio. At socio cultural awesome must keep on eye on customers changing
demand and those customers who do not like fast food or not attracted by awesome. In
demographic conditions awesome must need to analyze the specific income level group
and their income fluctuation and the specified target group of age for the awesome
products and in the technological changes awesome must need to take care of the new
product development process or the up grade of the machines using in the organization to
meet the requirement.
Forecasting:-
Forecasting is all about to predict tour future anticipation the importance of the firm or
the time frame. Now at awesome we forecast about our competitors KFC and Mc Donald
that may be they will launch a new or innovative product with combo price and good
quality that product can affect the awesome business process by attracting awesome
customers towards them. Now in this way awesome use controlled test marketing in
which we can make defensive strategies or come out with new product before our
competitor launches the product because in this thing the timing is very important so in
this way we can beat our competitor product before launching or commercialization of
the product.
Assessing:-
Now in assessing we evaluate the environmental data for the implications of the firm.
Now due to the recent economical condition of Pakistan in which we are facing shortage
of flour and sugar due to this fact the prices of raw material called ingredients for the
finish product has been increased due to this fact awesome competitors KFC and Mc
Donald increase their prices of the products on the basis of their strong brand equity or
the strong market position but now this is the time for awesome to overcome their
competitor or to break their regular customers by giving them a surprisingly offer by not
to increase their prices of their products and too away their competitor market share now
in this way we can increase our number of customers in an organization and we will be
able to get more profit margin in the long run .
Industry Analysis:-
Threat of new entrance:-
Threat of new entrance is always been in any kind of industry. Now for awesome which
is a fast food industry also has threat of new entrance As awesome food already has its
strong competitors in the market like KFC and Mc Donald etc So the entrance of new
competitor as a threat can also raise the problem for awesome Now to avoid or to stop
this new entrance of threat awesome make its strategies regarding market and valuation
of products so strong so due to this fact it will not be easy for any one to enter into the
industry first of all he would have been match up the strategies of awesome and other
organizations as well. Somehow on the other hand there are also some other factors in
this food industry due to which no one can easily make their entrance Firstly, There are
established brands identities in your industry like Mc Donald etc Secondly, there is a lot
of capital needed for the industry and the service use of expensive equipment and finally
the overall cost or strong financial plan to set up franchises in different areas.
Threat of Substitutes:-
As awesome food have different competitors in a market like KFC and Mc Donald So
due to this fact Some how there is a similarity of offering products between awesome and
its competitors like both are offering products like Zinger burger ,French fries, Nuggets
Sand witches and many more etc now in his way we suppose the If awesome take a step
and increases its product prices then the result may be the switching of awesome
customers towards hi competitors because some customers do not compromise on price
same as this thing related to product quality if awesome product quality don’t match up
with the customers taste and expectations then in this they can switch to the competitors
where they found food according to their taste. On the other hand the traditional Pakistani
dinning, home cooked meals, food streets, Street vendors are also count as substitute
products.
Threat of Supplier:-
Now At awesome we have different type of suppliers which are responsible to supply us
the required particular items and those suppliers include Poultry products supplier ,
Cooking Oil and Bakery products Supplier , Paper and Packaging Supplier , and
construction related machinery supplier . Now if one of the supplier missed in this whole
process or Switch to our competitors by having a great deal so due to this fact the work
cannot be done in an efficient manner and we got to be in trouble on the other hand if one
of the supplier stop supplying us the required product due to the circumstances like
poultry product supplier stop supplying us chickens due the disease of bird flu so due to
this fact we will be facing a problem or finding out a new supplier so this might be also
include as threat of supplier to the awesome.
Threat of Customers:-
Now the threat of customer is a major threat of any business process because customers
are the ones who just run the business process. Now at awesome we must take care of our
customers by giving them quality customers service and also offering them special meals
deals on a reasonable prices At awesome we must take care of the product prices and
product quality because these are those important elements which grab the attention of
the customers but if we will not focus on product prices and quality this can be a cause of
Switching customers towards competitors like KFC or Mc Donald because if we will
increase our product prices the impact of the is action can be in the form of switching
customers because some customers do not compromise on prices same a with the product
quality if we do not focus on our product quality this may be also cause of switching of
customers towards competitors where they found better food quality or the food which
match up with their taste because like prices some customers also not compromise on
product quality .
Threat of competitor:-
Now threat of competitor is also a major threat in the market awesome must keep on eye
on their competitors include KFC Mc Donald, Pizza Hut etc. Now awesome must keep
on eye on their strategies and their innovations as well as the must analyze the prices of
their products because if they decreased their product prices by using pricing strategy this
can effect the awesome and focus on whether they broader their product line or not and
by doing the strong advertisement and marketing campaigns they can attract customers
towards them so all of these are those threats which must be analyzed by the awesome.

As we discussed above in the project about competition of awesome food with the other
competitors we discuss it in the following form that awesome divided the competitors in
two categories one is direct competitors in which we include KFC, Mc Donald both are
fast food providing restaurant in Pakistan the selection is limited and pricey, the dishes
are quite good and has a well-mannered food selection however the quality is in
consistent. And the second one is indirect competitor in which we include Pizza Hut and
Bamboo as Bamboo and Pizza Hut has a limited menu and caters to different segments of
society e.g. Bamboo is catering to lower middle society of Pakistan...Awesome got the
relevant information regarding its competitors from their annual reports , by attending
different seminars, visiting their web sites as well as there are also internal and external
sources are involved and helpful to get the relevant information regarding their

is detained in esteem. Being the new one in the market awesome try to build its strong
reputation in the market even though awesome got the good market share and financial
position and in start establish its good reputation in market but not at the peak level
because still awesome has the danger of the failure of its new product development as
compared to its competitors like Mc Donald who got the brand equity. On the other hand
awesome try to build its strong reputation in the eye of customers by offering them good
meal schemes on reasonable cheap price with high quality and also do aggressive
promotion for its products due to this fact consumers attracted towards awesome and that
time is not that far when awesome will also recognize as brand equity holder.

Types of diversification:-
There are so many types of diversification Strategies but at awesome we use Two specific
Strategies which are as follows:-
• Concentration Strategy.
• Vertical Integration Strategy.
Concentration Strategy:-
At awesome we follow Concentrate strategy because being the new one in the fast food
industry we do not want to take a risk to diversify to another industry. So we try to focus
on a current single business due to this fact awesome has opened its franchises in many
cities of Pakistan include Islamabad, Rawalpindi ,Lahore and Karachi and many more as
well awesome wants to expand his business in a country as much as he can. At awesome
we concentrate on our primary line of a business and increase the number of products
offered or market served, Sales revenue in this primary business.
Differentiation Strategy:-
Now at awesome we also use this strategy by making our product different than the
competitors or by introducing new product development like different types of vegetable
burgers on the other hand we also introduce different meal schemes to attract the
customers like Happy price menu , Quantity Discount etc. Where as at awesome we try
Provide high quality products at least better than our competitors so that customers also
find uniqueness in quality as well.
Entrepreneur ship:-
As many fast food restaurants are already established in a country so we cant say that we
have the monopoly in this industry and the particularly specified entrepreneur in this
industry but being the new entry or new one in the fast food restaurant we use concept of
intra preneurship
Intrapreneurship:-
Now in intrapreneurship awesome is developing new business outlets or franchises in a
country just to expand his business through out the country now in franchises awesome
assumes fewer risks like management training and assistance in operating the business,
economies of scale for advertising and purchasing so being the fast food restaurant
awesome mainly focus on franchises system in intrapreneurship because in this way
awesome can come up with new product development like different types of vegetable
burgers for the customers just to satisfy customer .
Unity of command:-
The unity of command is basically a management principal in which every individual has
to report only one manager. Now at awesome the unity of command has been showed by
the following hierarchy of different levels of managers in an organization that who
reports to whom in an organization. According to the Top level of hierarchy of awesome
food in which General manager reports to CEO of the awesome food then it’s the CEO of
the organization responsibility to report chairman if the awesome and finally chairman
has to inform all the matter all the information regarding profitability ratio, strategies,
goals of an organization to the board of directors. On the other hand at the middle
managerial level which is mainly applied in the franchises of the awesome food in which
all the assistant managers reports to their restaurant manager regarding daily activities
and routine work of an organization where as the numbers of assistant mangers depend
upon the volume of sales of the franchise usually there are three assistant managers deal
in one time and restaurant managers further reports to general managers where as first
line managers or non managerial employees in which counter workers , maintainance
boys all of them reports to shift supervisor who just take care of the non managerial
employees shifts when it will be changed how they should be organized and manage and
keep an eye on workers. And shift managers are responsible to inform assistant managers
regarding every thing.

Span of control:-
The span of control determined the number of employees a manager can efficiently
manage. In this way awesome do not face difficulty because as awesome deals with
franchises system and in each franchise awesome has 17 employees in which we include
our 6 counter workers 6 maintainance boys, security guard, shift supervisors and three
assistant managers so it becomes easy for restaurant manager to deal and control these
number of employees in an organization efficiently and effectively and usually these
number of employees are remain same in each franchise of an awesome food.
Formalization:-
Coordination Mechanism:-
Now at awesome we always try to make a strong working relationship between managers
and employees by giving employees right to speak and share their opinion regarding any
matter with managers as awesome has the open culture environment employees has the
freedom of conscience and given equal rights further organizational reward system also
helpful to motivate employees and develop strong coordination between employees like
at awesome franchises one of the counter worker can become their leader or supervisor in
the future and given by the complement called “Star” and got an increment in salary
where as one of the assistant manager can become the restaurant manager in future if he
work efficiently and effectively and will be awarded by officially car and increment in
salary as well .So all these kinds of efforts will be helpful to make positive coordination
between employees and managers .
Organizational Design:-
Organic organization:-
Awesome has basically a organic organizational structured which is highly adaptive and
flexible as we used decentralized approach in which we believe on sharing of ideas with
employees and job involvement of employees related to any matter with in the
organization As awesome deal with the fast food Being the new one in the fast food
industry we need to keep an eye on the competitor what they are doing with in or outside
the organization? By keeping this thing in mind awesome usually flexible in making his
strategies or decisions by involving employees either it is related to with in the
organization or outside. At awesome employees are highly trained and empowered to
handle different job activities and problems. At awesome in start we focus on high
formulization in which tightly focus on organizational rules and regulation to follow them
but later it becomes the part of our organizational culture basically we use high
formalization in started off the awesome just to which employ behavior is guided by rules
and regulations and policy statement and to make a structured job behavior and to control
over employees to follow the organizational polices then later on once the job behavior
become structured we become flexible and change our behavior toward low formalization
and decentralized session for a long run in which we now do job involvement with the
employees and share ideas with employees take their opinion regarding solving any
problem and keep them aware with all the necessary information regarding the
organization.

Staffing process:-
After estimating the labors demand how many employees will be needed to run the
particular franchise with the labors supply means getting and keeping of skillful
competent employees in an organization .Now awesome go through the staffing process
to obtain the required competent people for the organization so the first step in staffing
process of an awesome is recruitment.
Recruitment:-
The recruitment is the process of locating, Identifying, and attracting capable applicants.
ss
Job Analysis, Description, and Specification:-
Now after analyzing the major sources for getting competent workers awesome make the
job analysis in which awesome defines the job behavior and establish the particular
behavior which is required to perform that job e.g. what are the duties of the restaurant
manager or the assistant manger who works for the awesome food. Now after job
analysis we make job description it is basically a written document of what a job holder
does how it is done why it is done at awesome the job description explains the job
content, environment, and conditions of employment. Now after job description the
process of job specification comes in which awesome make the statement of minimum
qualification that a person must posses to perform a given job successfully like at
awesome food for the assistant managers we required persons who have done MBA and
preferable if they got experience somewhere else before it identifies the knowledge’s,
skills, and attitude needed to do the job effectively.
Selection:-
Now awesome use selection process to screening job applicants to ensure that most
appropriate candidates are hired. At awesome the selection process able to predict which
applicants will come up to the organizational expectation level. Now at awesome
franchise we have different criteria to select the employees first of all the selection of
restaurant manager for any franchise is always been decided by the head office of the
awesome called RSC (Restaurant support center) which is situated in Lahore through a
specific process eventually one of the assistant manager of that franchise who perform
his work efficiently and effectively can be the restaurant manager but in the end as
discussed above the decision will be taken by the RSC. Another thing at awesome we do
not hire any person for the post of the restaurant manager directly awesome selects or
hire employees usually for the assistant managers or counter workers positions and the
qualification which awesome required for the designation of assistant manager is
assistant manager must done MBA and preferable if got job experience anywhere else
before and the counter workers, Shift supervisors are hired by Restaurant managers
.Where as awesome use different selection devices include Application forms in which
applicant gives his name ,address, telephone number, and interviews of the applicants in
which the interviewer watch the reaction of the candidate and assume that how he or she
will be interact with the customers all these methods are for hiring all the assistant
managers ,counter workers ,Shift supervisors, or other no managerial employees Where
as the top management level positions decided by the board of directors of the
organization like who will be the next CEO, or General Manager of the awesome.
Orientation:-
Now after the selection of the employees the next step which awesome does is the
orientation of the employees this orientation means the introduction of a new employee to
his job and the organization. Now at awesome we mean the orientation of employee in
two ways firstly work unit organization which familiarizes the employee with the goals
of the work unit that shows how the employee can contribute to the unit goals like if there
is assistant manager hired then what are the duties of the assistant mangers and what
responsibilities must be fulfilled how he can contribute in achieving unit goals same as
this thing related to counter workers if new counter worker is hired then its job is how
can he serve customers in a better way which is apart of his unit goals on the other hand
it also include the introduction of an employee to his co workers. Secondly awesome
make sure organizational orientation in which awesome tells the new employees about
the awesome overall policies, rules and regulations, procedures and objectives.
Training:-
we train new employees on the two things FSM (food service module ) and
CSM(customer service module ) on the other hand we trained employees to enhance their
different skills like interpersonal skills and technical skills in which we focus on
customer services, culture awareness, conflict resolution, team building, computers
applications , technology etc we give lectures on theses subjects for three months and
after it we used to take the tests and evaluate the performances of individual and this
procedure is for the Middle management and top-middle management include restaurant
manager is being trained in the head office RSC (restaurant support center) and
operational and non managerial employees like counter workers are being trained by
assistant manager (middle management ).
Career Development:-
Now at awesome we realize the career development of the employees like after passing
all the above steps of human resource management process it is time for employee to see
its career that at which stage its career is moving on. Does its career remain the same the
way it was when he started off its career or now he does progress by leaps and bounds in
his career and today he has the improved career
Building on diversity:-
Now in building on diversity awesome chooses different business strategy and human
resource strategy to improve the management of diversity in the organization
Motivation:-
Motivation is basically related to the processes that explain for an individual keenness to
exert high levels of effort to reach organizational goals conditioned by the efforts ability
to satisfy some individual need.
At awesome we motivate our employees by using two different theories which are
equity theory and ERG Theory
Equity theory:-
At awesome the first theory which we used to motivate employees is equity theory in
which we give equal rights, rewards and opportunities to all employees equally.
According to equity theory employees compare their job outcomes and inputs ratio with
that of relevant others and then corrects if found any inequity. Now at awesome we
believe that employees found their ratio to be equal to those of relevant others a state of
equity exist in other words he finds his situation is fair that justice prevails and in this
way he will be motivated and do focus to enhance its work performance .
Outcomes A = Outcomes B
Input A = Inputs B
Equity Ratio.
Awesome impose and enforce rules fairly and impartially at awesome food every single
job has its importance like if there is a maintainer boy has been employed in an
organization then its obvious that there is a need of him so we also treat him with justice
and take care of his rights It provides the same rate of pay to the individuals who are
similar in their level of skills, performance and responsibilities
• Distributive Justice
At awesome this means perceived fairness of the amount and allocation of
rewards among individuals At awesome food we don’t take biased decisions
like if any employee is the nephew of chairman or any other top manager and
the other is not they will be treated equally in case of distribution of rewards,
incentives and procedurals duties as well so in this way we treat all our
franchise middle managers and non managerial employees equally.
• Procedural Justice
At awesome food the rules and regulations are same for every employee’s .we
hire the employees with the bench standards we made and there will be no
variation according to various changing situations.
ERG Theory:-
At Awesome the second theory which we used to motivate employees is ERG Theory
ERG theory is basically related to needs and based on three core groups’ existence,
relationships, and growth.
E: Existence
R: Relationship
G: Growth
Existence:-
The existence group is concerned with basic requirements of life corresponding to
psychological needs and safety needs. At awesome the first object which we focus on is
to take care of our employees basic psychological and safety needs Firstly we give
salaries to our employees on time however they fulfill their needs on time What ever they
want to do or purchase in this way employees get motivated Secondly if any employee
has not proper arrangement of shelter then in this case awesome arrange proper and safe
haven for him. Where as regarding safety need Awesome do not give any danger task to
employees awesome usually offers danger avoidance jobs to employees awesome
provides healthy working conditions for his employees and reliable day to day activities
so in this way employees will be motivated.
Relationship:-
The relationship group of needs is concerned with people desire for social support ,
interpersonal relationship etc Now at awesome we try to make strong relationship
between managers and employees and believe on supervisory support at each level in an
organization Awesome food gives free speech right to employee and freedom of
conscience employees can share their opinion with their supervisors or managers in a
friendly environment where as if employees got any problem regarding any problem so
this may also discuss in an friendly environment Awesome celebrates his employees
birthdays so at awesome we make birthday parties for our employees and give different
gifts on that occasion so this shows a positive sign and a way to motivate employee in a
nice manner. At awesome food there is the right of privacy, delicate matter of every
employee are confined and not disclosed to any one so all these efforts will get motivated
to employees.
Growth:-
Now after getting the basic requirements of life or psychological needs and making a
strong social relationship in an organization now it’s the time to growth and raise your
bar from the previous stage and try to find out what you need to become or what you are
capable of becoming this include in a higher order need basically it’s the time to find and
develop your talent Awesome do focus on this part of the story and observe those
employees who perform their duties efficiently and who are basically problem solving
persons who got sharp mind and are precious for organization may be he can be awesome
counter worker or the assistant manger designation doesn’t matters if he is capable of
becoming something big in future we treat all of them equally and on the other hand
these kinds of employees can be the part of top management of an organization in a
future because of his skills so awesome motivate these kinds of employees by giving
them promotions ,increment on salary all of these incentives are on skilled based and may
be he will be awarded as employee of the year so these kinds of efforts are helpful for
the organization to get those employees in touch with the organization.
Leader Ship:-
At awesome leadership is all about the process of influencing employees toward the
achievement of goals.
Theories of leaderships:-
At awesome we consider two theories of leadership which we think that can be utilized in
awesome and these theories are as follows:-
• Trait theory.
• Behavioral theory.
Trait theory:-
Trait theory is basically related to an individual personal trait and this factor is very
obligatory for any manager and helpful to control and coordinate organizational work
activities these personal traits can be the Self confidence, honesty and integrity,
intelligence, job relevant knowledge, desire to lead .Now at awesome being the fast food
restaurant we have opened many franchises in different cities and in each franchise we
have restaurant manager and numbers of assistant mangers which have the responsibility
to lead and control the organizational activities of awesome on the other hand at awesome
franchises we deal with customers every day or we can say its customer oriented business
so in this way its important for managers to make long term customer relationships by
doing customer satisfaction in a way of solving their problems like service or food etc
and these mangers can manage the organizational activities customer satisfaction and all
others responsibilities if they have personal traits like self confidence ,intelligence,
tolerance, honesty and integrity and many more which we mentioned above
So awesome focus on personal traits for their mangers because awesome believe that if
managers have the personal traits they can tolerate customers and keeping in mind the
rule of customer is always right then in way they can be an effective mangers and leaders
for the organization.
Behavioral Theory:-
Behavioral theory basically identified behaviors that differentiated effective leaders from
ineffective leaders and describes what efficient manger can do? Now at awesome we
consider behavioral theory because it’s related to the employee’s behavior that shows
behavior of employees at work place in which we include specifically awesome
franchises managers that how they behave with other employees at work place or they
should be? Now in this way we discuss important point which are as follows
• Initiating structure
Initiating Structure:-
Initiating structure is the element which shows and identified roles or duties of mangers
and other employees in an organization to attain the required objectives of the
organization. Awesome focus on designed initiating structure because due to this factor
Restaurant manager can set performance standards of employees of a franchise in which
we include assistant managers, supervisors, counter workers etc like how can the assistant
managers assigned duties and can control and coordinate first line managers include
supervisors, counter workers and other non managerial employees and then reports to
restaurant manager same as with shift supervisors they have to control and observe
counter workers individually and then reports to assistant managers regarding their
performance .
Democratic style:-
As awesome believes on employee oriented behavior and to work like a team and share
different ideas, decision with employees and take their opinion regarding any matter or
include employees in finding out the solution for the particular problem arises in the
franchise so that is why awesome chooses democratic style for the organization’s.
