Environmental Analysis
Sikorsky Aircraft: Environmental analysis
PEST analysis
Political
At present, the U.S. is still embroiled in numerous conflicts abroad, although it is pulling out of one of its major conflicts (Afghanistan) slowly. Regardless of whatever party assumes control over the White House in the future, there will still be strong demand for military vehicles, including Sikorsky Aircraft Black Hawks.
Economic
However, the shaky U.S. economy means that there will likely be less available funds for military spending on vehicles such as the Black Hawk helicopter, which forms the core of the Sikorsky brand
Social
Socially, once again the economy plays a role upon in terms of public perception of the company: citizens are more reticent about supporting military spending, when many Americans are dependent upon social service organizations for basic necessities and cutbacks are necessary 'across the board.'
Technological
Sikorsky places a premium upon innovation in its aircraft technology. However, it should be noted that in the future conventional aircrafts may become less important in warfare, as they may be replaced with 'drones' and other non-manned vehicles. Sikorsky is currently developing an unmanned version of its famous Black Hawk, but Eurocopter, Kaman Corp. Of Bloomfield and Boeing, Sikorsky's major competitors have already created unmanned helicopters. "They [Sikorsky] are behind the curve a little bit, in that other manufacturer's around the world have been looking at unmanned versions of traditional helicopters for years"...
Environment The humanity has experienced an unprecedented level of scientific and technological progress in the last two hundred years. The progress, however, has been achieved with a heavy price. Human actions have significantly damaged the natural environment, leading to numerous problems such as pollution, climate change, diseases, and much more. Because of these developments, the subject of environmental management has become a critical one. Environmental managers therefore face certain challenges related
Additionally, the potential profits involved with the exploitation of the nation's resources, make for tempting business to acquire through corrupt activities and exploitation. This enormous poverty gap is "a testament to the government's corruption, mismanagement and callousness toward its own people," (Mouawad 2009). Yet, the environment can be used as an element to quell the conflict as well by providing a source to create unity within the region. The environment can
An important influence on Renaissance architecture was the Dome of the Rock, famous for its spatial harmony, balance and overall perfection. . . . The Dome of the Rock is basically a Byzantine building [with] classical columns, topped by arches in alternating black and white marble, the dome, and the gold and semi-precious mosaics that decorate the walls all speak of Byzantine heritage" (p. 119). Some scholars, though, have argued
Environments The real world companies that are being studied are Starbucks, Apple and FedEx. These three companies face different external environmental challenges and have focused on shifting their internal environments in order to better compete in their external environments. The PEST analysis will be used as the analytical framework (QuickMBA, 2012). Starbucks operates in the quick service restaurant industry, and is one of the top brands in that business (QSR Magazine, 2011).
Environment and Delinquency Over the last several years, the issue of juvenile crime and its impact on the criminal justice system has been increasingly brought to the forefront. This is because there are debates about what to do with these types of offenders and the kind of approach that should be utilized with them. These differences have resulted in considerable amounts of volatility in juvenile delinquency rates. Evidence of this can
Environment from a Christian Perspective Using Toulmin's Argument Model, this paper will explore the way in which Christians should act in response to the environmental challenges facing the planet. There are many reasons that all citizens should be paying attention to the problems that the earth is facing, due to climate change and pollution. And Christians, while they have spiritual values that differ from Muslims, Buddhists and other faiths, are citizens
