PROFESSIONAL BODIES:
Your consulting organisation has been approached by CIPFA one of the professional bodies concerned with accounting. Your consultancy team has been given the CIPFA project.
You are required to prepare and deliver a maximum 25 minute presentation to be made to the President and the Chief Executive of CIPFA.
You are asked to evaluate CIPFA’s current position and recommend ways forward based on an analysis of themselves and their major competitors.
This project is of such a sensitive nature that you have been strictly forbidden from making any form of contact with the client or their competitors.
