Here is the assignment they completed:

Imagine that you work as a project management team for a concert production company. The city of Brooklyn is planning a July 4th celebration concert this summer, and your company is one of several that the city has asked for proposals. The city wants three of the country’s hottest artists to perform at this show, but they don’t know who they should pick, so they need a company like yours to do the research.

This research will involve asking a representative sample of the target audience for the concert (teenage students from throughout New York City) to rate five artists on a 10-point scale to determine which three artists are the most popular. You will also need to put together a budget that shows how much it will cost to produce the concert.

It will be up to you to use Excel, Word, and PowerPoint to analyze the data and put together a convincing proposal “pitch” that will impress Brooklyn city officials and make them want to produce YOUR concert and not your competitors’.

Congratulations & Great Work!!!
