Your next step after analysis is to outline the alternatives you identify.

Background Information

Your next step after analysis is to outline the alternatives you identify. In addition, please identify the criteria that helped you come up with these alternatives. Have you overlooked anything? What business framework or theory can be applied to the situation or to the questions you have developed? What hypotheses can be identified to outline possible solutions? In other words, what outcomes will likely be generated by specific assumptions, recommendations, or actions?

If this is a quantitative question, crunch the numbers to identify trends or patterns in the data that will support your final recommendation. This is not the place to take a shortcut. However, be careful to evaluate the data in terms of what is relevant or not relevant to the solution that you are going to present in the final report. In some cases, extraneous information is included in order for you to demonstrate your ability to recognize what types of information and analysis are appropriate to recommend in a solution.
