Strategic Plan and Presentation

Xerox is an organization which provides services for the customers at different state levels. There are services of printing for offices, IT and outsourcing, customer care, and human resource specialization. Its headquarters are presently in Connecticut, USA. Above all tasks it performs the tasks of the graphic designing and software supplies for agencies and offices. It has changed its strategies in the past few years. In 2000 it has shifted from analog to digital systems to increase the workflow. This also helped in enhancing its service base and making more loyal customers. This transition was there till 2006, but it started providing services to 50% of customers, so it was surely working.

The industry dominant economic feature is clearly to be on the running lines of digital technology while running an extremely lean business plan. The industry that Xerox is in is based purely on highly competitive for being cheaper. They fight on a cost basis against its competitors. This market is a very high cost market to enter so they do not need to worry about new competitors but focus on the competitors it already has. Their stock prices have increased close to 20%. The company has made decent progress despite struggles in its outsourcing services segment, which is the company's largest division.

Currently there are many issues present in outsourcing and information technology sector of Xerox. This research proposal will explain the benefits of expanding marketing and outsourcing. Currently Xerox is not as much well known as it should be. There are loopholes present in the system. Information technology can surely help Xerox to overcome the challenges which are set by other competitors in the field of outsourcing. This will increase its shareholders as well. Thus the strategy also includes the aspect of enhancing the shareholder's interest. When profit margins rise, shareholders will surely be presently there for Xerox. The strategy will look forward to developing relations with Medicaid. There can be collaboration with Medicaid which can help it in taking contracts of making health care centers for Medicaid. Moreover, the better implementation of information technology will help reduce all kinds of frauds in payments and red tapes. There are many abuses present in health care system at present.

The methods that will be used to collect the information are general website links of competitors and Xerox, government anticipations regarding communication sector development. There will be more qualitative information, but quantitative information regarding facts and figures of Xerox will be helpful. There is no general public involved in the sampling. The chief executives of Xerox will also be surveyed of how they are ready to compete with the competitors. The staff will be surveyed on whether they are satisfied with the working environment and what they want to change in IT infrastructure.

Because Xerox is one of the most renowned data management companies, information technology improvement can give it a chance to make more child payments than 60 percent as it is currently making. Fact based decisions are sometimes not taken because of lack of information present in the offices of Xerox. The staff is trained and well experienced but better infrastructures of information technology will increase its efficiency. In the research proposal, it will address how better implementation of information technology can be achieved and what are the ways through which Xerox can take up more system.

The research proposal will also explore the other hurdles in better performance of Xerox. It will explore how records to report service can help workers in general accounting of daily life, reporting, taxation and fix assets information. This strategic plan will make sure that there are:

· Equal availability of IT infrastructure to all active offices of Xerox.

· The enterprise culture will be similar in all of the Xerox services.

· The IT will help boost the services and thus the revenues.

· It will provide a road map to the executrices of the Xerox organizations to make policies.
