Assessment Task 1: Case study report
Goal: To analyse a business case using the work centred analysis framework
Product: Case Study Report
Format: Report Question
1500 word report.
You are to write a report outlining the changes that have occurred in a business due to digital innovation using a work centred analysis approach. Two matrices will be required, 1) a work centred analysis (WCA) of a company of your choosing prior to a digital disruption event. This will involve a retrospective analysis and any assumptions, due to a lack of relevant information should be included. The second matrix will be another WCA of the same company after the digital disruption event. In the report you will need to provide an assessment of the effect of a digital disruption event, provide recommendations on how to handle the event and provide an implementation plan for your recommendations.
This is an individual assessment and needs to be submitted electronically through SafeAssign.
Criteria • Identify the salient points associated with a digital disruption event in a company of your choosing.
• Provide recommendations and an implementation plan to help the company cope with the event

3. Assessment of the effect of digital disruption Based on your comparative analysis of both work centred analysis framework matrices that you have recorded in Appendix A, provide an assessment of the effect of digital disruption on the business. Your assessment must be supported by concepts and other material from the literature (text, readings, etc.). 5
