    (Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University – Mid La Union Campus, 2011-10) Villanueva, Christelle M.; Alegre, Mark Anthony J.; Pasig, George Victor S.; Almoite, Gladys A.; Correa, Janice G.; Hipol, Annabel J.
    The study was conducted to cultivate a company analysis on JIGZ Commercial located at Quezon Ave., Sevilla Center, San Fernando City of La Union. The specific objectives of the study were: 1) to introduce the company profile of JIGZ Commercial; 2) to describe the management systems profile of the company along Organization and Human Resource Management, Operations Management, Marketing Management, and Financial Management; 3) to conduct a situational analysis on the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) of the company; and 4) to formulate recommendations based on the outcome of the SWOT analysis. The descriptive type of research design is used specifically the case study method to have a thorough understanding and analysis of the four management systems namely: Organization and Human Resource Management, Operations Management, Marketing Management, and Financial Management. Primary and secondary data were gathered during the Introduction to Methods of Research class and the company immersion process. The strengths of the company under the Organization and Human Resource Management system and which are recommended to be continued and maintained were: a) the full control and sole responsibility of the General Manager on recruitment and selection process and employees’ performance evaluation; b) hiring applicants with disability; c) highly-skilled employees in their respective field of specialization; d) seminar and training programs are provided by the company supplier; and e) the company’s compliance on the standards of compensation and benefits mandated by law. Several weaknesses that were observed and should be improved are: a) too heavy workload of employees with no expertise in some areas; b) unavailability of strategies and tools in performance evaluation; and c) limited seminars and trainings provided by the company. The following recommendations are strongly suggested: a) the company could develop their organizational structure and written vision, mission, goals, and objectives for better coordination and supervision; b) the company could use different outsourcing strategies and instruments in terms of recruitment and selection, performance evaluation, and for seminars and trainings; and c) the company should maintain its balance pay structure. The opportunity to strengthen performance management together with the seminars and trainings was presented to promote efficiency among employees. However, threats could come from other companies who may attract highly-skilled employees.
