There is no single template that works for the project. I have seen great projects take different forms. Some use conventional text, with tables and numbers inserted at the right places and some use powerpoint presentations.The key is to take the numbers that you have for your company and write a narrative about what the company does well or badly. I have some examples of past projects that have done that well (but please don't just replicate their formats) as well as the summaries of findings from prior classes.

Sample Project Reports

These are a few sample group project reports from past semesters. They are in pdf format, and you need Adobe Acrobat to read them. They illustrate the diversity of the companies analyzed and the ways in which different groups answered the same questions.
