Decision Analysis

By Published on October 3, 2025

Create an analysis of Suzuki’s (the case is in the document) management decision to end its automobile sales in the US and a discussion of the hypothetical scenario presented below. Cite all of your sources and format your analysis according to APA style. The suggested length for your analysis is 10-12 pages, and recommended lengths for each section have been included in the sample outline below.

Begin your analysis by accessing the following links (in the document) to gain an overview of the company history, its 2012 announcement, and its reorganization. You should conduct additional research beyond these articles to help sharpen your investigation.

Outline

Section I. Overview of the decision (1 paragraph)
Using what you have learned from your research, briefly summarize Suzuki’s situation.
Section II. Key decision issue (usually 1 sentence)
What was the key decision faced by Suzuki management?
Section III. Identification of decision makers (2-3 pages)

What individuals and teams were likely involved in the critical company decision? Use information from your research as well as what you have learned in the course to identify who you think was involved in the decision. For example, this may include not only the executive team, but also teams such as logistics, marketing, finance, and legal. For each team or individual that you select, provide an explanation as to why they would likely be involved in the decision.
