How much does this decision rest on the particular context of police work?
Subject: Human Resource Management
Topic: Legal Issues in Human Resources

Paper details:

A police officer began making complaints to his superiors about a fellow officer whom he believed was not spending sufficient time performing the community service work to which both officers had been assigned. At a meeting with the police chief and the officer’s supervisors, the officer became angry, demanded to see his union representative, stormed out, and later used an expletive in addressing one of his supervisors. The officer reported being “consumed” with anger and fear. A few months after the aborted meeting, the officer got in an argument with another officer during which he was visibly upset and swearing, he reported nearly losing control during a traffic stop, he was the object of a domestic violence call from his estranged wife (no charges were filed), and he made statements to officers like “It doesn’t matter how this ends.” He was ordered to undergo a Fitness for Duty Exam (FFDE). The examining doctor diagnosed a mood disorder and concluded that he was unfit for police duty due to a permanent disability. In conjunction with a subsequent pre-termination hearing, the officer obtained a second medical opinion which concurred in the view that he was currently unfit for duty, but which held out the hope that he could still be returned to duty after treatment. Although he appeared to be making progress, he was terminated after he refused to follow through with a second FFDE. 1. What was the legal issue in this case? What did the court decide? 2. On what basis does the court decide that the fitness for duty exams were allowed under the ADA? 3. The case focuses on the medical exams, but what about the termination? Is there any argument to be made that his termination violates the ADA? 4. How much does this decision rest on the particular context of police work? What if the facts were similar but the employee was a waiter at a restaurant? A stock clerk at a warehouse?

Subject: Technology
Topic: Create and RFP Solicitation – IT related
Paper details:

Search for at least 3 RFP examples in the IT arena to help you create your own RFP in Part 1-B.

The websites suggested to conduct your research are

Once at the website, you will enter your search criteria for the state and type field for a solicitation.
Search for opportunities and select any opportunity of interest to you. Since in Week 7, Part 2 of the Course project, you will need to create an IT RFP, so you should look for well-structured IT RFPs.
Analyze the selected formal written proposal for structure, content, and unique requirements specific to the product or service being requested. Review the delivery methods, legal requirements, and other relevant points for consideration to be included as appropriate to the RFP solicitation you will be creating.
Key sections that you should pay special attention include:
The scope of work or scope of service
Special requirements and qualifications to be able to bid
RFP’s selection criteria (What is the criteria and point system use),
RFP management process
Contract type ( Is it Fixed Price, Cost Plus, or T&M ?)

(NOTE: You are not responding to the RFP solicitation; you are just analyzing the most important sections to prepare you for PART 2 of the course project)

Using the RFP Analysis Template (Links to an external site.), you will write an analysis on the selected IT RFP’s from Part 1-A. You will create a document with the following information:

Title Page
Table of Contents
Sections as listed below
References
RFP Summary (Write a 1 page). The RFP summary is usually taken from the instructions to bidders from the requestor or the instructions to bidders or in the scope and description of work.

Analyze the management plan (Write 1-2 pages)

Use the RFP template from your PP1 assignment, which can be downloaded by clicking here.

Procedures and deadline: The Part 1A RFP analysis should be prepared in a Microsoft Word format suitable for electronic transmission. Any resources used beyond the textbooks need to be cited in your document, including links to relevant websites. Be sure to include citations and a bibliography.

Give an “introduction” that explains what your paper is about and, most importantly, presents your argument

REVIEW ASSIGNMENT For this peer review assignment, you will be asked to complete an outline. You may attach your outline as a Word document or you may post it to this discussion. The outline should do the following: • Give an “introduction” that explains what your paper is about and, most importantly, presents your argument • List your secondary sources (references) and explain how they are connected to your argument. You don’t need to do an APA reference and you don’t need to provide a summary of the source. You want to talk specifically about how the source is helping to advance your argument Note that this outline does not need to follow APA format, meaning you don’t need a title page and you don’t have to worry about what your references look like. For this I want people to be focused on content.

2. Many companies are offering a variety of work/life programs which tend to result in positive personal outcomes for individual employees (i.e., decreased family conflict, lower stress-related illnesses), however empirical research supporting the benefit of these programs to workplace performance is limited. Take a position regarding whether these programs are beneficial for organizational performance. Be sure to explain and justify your position with examples and/or other external support. Are some types of programs more directly beneficial to performance or do they all contribute equally?

Select any one of the following starter bullet point sections. Review the important themes within the sub questions of each bullet point. The sub questions are designed to get you thinking about some of the important issues. Your response should provide a succinct synthesis of the key themes in a way that articulates a clear point, position, or conclusion supported by research. Select a different bullet point section than what your classmates have already posted so that we can engage several discussions on relevant topics.

Many people have participated in a market research survey at some time in their lives. With reference to any survey that you actively participated in, discuss the questions that follow. If you have not experienced a market research survey, take a survey on the Internet:

Evaluate how effective the survey was in measuring how you felt about a product.

Explain whether you feel your response in the survey helped improve or will improve the product being marketed.

Describe how you might have gathered information differently so that the survey was more effective.

Explain why it is important for marketers to monitor current trends in marketing. How does a marketing information system identify and measure trends? How would you design a marketing information system for a product of your choice?

When Henry Ford marketed the Model T a hundred years ago, he stated customers could have any color they wanted as long as it was black. We have come a long way since then. The types and variety of cars have exploded, and now cars are available in a multitude of colors.

Identify the different segments of the automobile market.

Discuss the types of people who buy minivans, pickup trucks, sports cars, SUVs, compact cars, and luxury cars. What are the benefits for the auto companies to segment the market? Give reasons for your answer.

Determine if it is possible for a company to attract customers from one market segment into another market segment and still earn a profit. Explain why.

Martin Lindstrom wrote a book called Buyology describing how marketers use state-of-the-art medical devices to measure how brain activity changes and is stimulated by advertising. The goal is to understand how advertising directly impacts brain activity in order for marketers to develop more effective advertisements, which (theoretically) no one will be able to resist.

Assess each of these strategies and provide an example for each category.

Out of the four strategies, choose a strategy that best suits growth in a company of your choice and justify how you would use this strategy.

Respond to your peers throughout the week. Justify your answers with examples, research, and reasoning. Your initial posting should be the equivalent of 1.5 single-spaced pages (700 to 800 words) in length.
