Ashley Home Furnishing Ltd - Business Model

Element
Constraints and pressures

Analysis
Availability of suitable staff.
Green issues.
Planning regulations.
Availability of capital for expansion.
Health and Safety regulations which are too constricting.
Customer car parking facilities at the stores.

Evaluation
Employment laws together with Health & Safety issues cause managers most of the problems.
Green issues are now less of a problem since the adoption of Ashley's ethical policy on this matter.
More expertise is required by staff to deal with local government on planning matters.

Lack of adequate car parking at the Southampton store is limiting sales.

Strategy
Set up a team to look at and review those constraints which are seriously impacting the business.
Look at how additional capital could be raised to relieve some of the pressures.
