Production unit
It is the unit which main work is related to the production of the goods and services which is
produced according to the requirement or the demand from the target market. Production Process
has made the Ryanair one of the most selling and successful food retail company in the UK. By
having the other brand product, the company also produces its own brand product to meet the
requirement of the customer. The production unit in the Ryanair has became one of the most
important unit because it is the unit which is able to fulfil the requirements of the customer
which are likely to have the good quality product in less prices. The company having the
interrelationship with the other unit like finance department and the marketing department of the
company. This helps in the forecasting the demand of the customer in the marketplace and helps
in the effective production of the company (Mills and et. al., 2019).
Finance unit
It is the department which is used to take care about all the financial activity within the
company where all the financial activity is recorded in the ledger, cash-book and balance sheet.
Each company and department requries the financial resources for the effective function in
which this department is used for maintaining the such activity. The company Ryanair is also
having its financial unit which maintain all its record and help in the functioning in well manner
in the organisation or company where it is required for the proper functioning of the TESCO.
HRM unit
Within an organisation, HR department is one of the most important that helps in
managing and controlling work associated with employees. Ryanair is the company which is
helping the Human Resource department. Which is good for the company where the one of the
main work is to provide the company well and active eimplo9yees which are able to work in the
company and can help in increasing the profitability of the company. They are able to hire the
best worker for the Ryanair which directly or indirectly helping in the productivity of the
company.
Marketing and sales unit

It is the main unit which is required to the company for taking to the customer mind to have their
shopping from their company or supermarket. Marketing department is the unit which is able to
aware the customer in the market to make their purchase from their brand. Ryanair is having the
best marketing unit in the country which are well aware that the people of the country for their

is the full fill the stock for the purchase. The sales of the product is totally depends on the
marketing technique which is directly associated with the marketing unit (Baines and et. al.,
2017).
The structure of any of the organisation which are having different structure for the
proper functioning of the company which helps in increasing the brand value or the productivity.
The structure depends on defined as the way through which various activities are performing
well in their departments. Ryanair is having different structure for the different functional unit
like for the governance it is having the hierarchical structure and for the store it is having the
layer of the structure which helps in the proper functioning in the large stores. These structure
are different which is depending on the different size of the store (Bergh and et. al., 2016).

TASK 3
P4 PESTLE analysis with positive and negative impact on the organisation
PESTLE analysis is the framework which is used to analyse the macro environment of
any organisation as well as their factors and effect which can influence operation of the business
unit. Here, Ryanair is the multinational company which is having its business in the different
country as well as in the UK.

Political factor-Since, the company is multinational and operates its business worldwide,
so the global political factor highly effect or influence the Ryanair business. It may include the
different act of legislation, political stability and the tax rates of the country where the company
is running its business. Due to in this COVID effect the world is facing the financial problem, so
the government is asking these company to provide some job for the domestic population. The
company is able to increase the employment which is also the reason for having more business in
the market. Due to having the multinational company it is having more employee and more
department in it which is able to adjust easily whenever there is any change in the current and
future legislation and able to adjust in the policy accordingly (Manning 2017).
Positive effect- The change in tax due to having the multinational brand they are able to
maintain the profit but competitors and not able. Ryanair has to follow all legal regulations while
providing service in any country.
Negative effect- This stability is the cause of decreasing the profit of the company. It is
seen that Ryanair will have negative impact due to some of the political rules.
Economic factor- It is the main factor which are able to effect the business. As discussed
above in this COVID situation, there is negative impact on the global economic and due to this
the economy of the all the countries are facing recession. The earning of the individual has gone
down and many of them have loose their job. This effect them in not spending more in the
market which ultimately decrease the demand and sale of the company.
Positive effect- The competitors are not able to maintain their economy for the business
which is beneficial for the TESCO.
Negative effect- It company is facing problem in sales. If UK economy declines, then it is
not easy to conduct the business operations.
Social factor- It is the factor which also effects the Ryanair business in this the people are
having their own schedule which don't allow to give their time in shopping physically because it
needs more time, so, they try to buy the product online in which the delivery is done according to
their appropriate time which include the fast delivery and flexible return policy. Obesity is one of
the big issue now a days in the society where customer want organic product which have not any
side effect on their health. So the company is trying to provide such type of product in their
supermarket to full fill the customer needs (Kraft and et. al., 2016).

Positive effect- There is need of customers to have more secure environment due to
COVID 19. Ryanair has to take more effective precautions for providing services.
Negative effect- The cost of the company has increased which give the less profit.
Technological factor- In this changing and updating technology world, Ryanair needs to
have change in its technology which is online shopping and fast delivery. The self-service
checkout is one of the best tech update for the customer. In this, customer is able to save their
time and it also helps in the reducing the labour cost in the company which is beneficial for both
company and customer. The different online payment option also give the large number of
option for paying their bill amount.
Positive effect- It save the time and labour cost. When new technologies are used within
this Airlines then it is easy to manage the customer satisfaction level.
Negative effect- Need huge amount for being update to the technology. Lot of fund is
required to adopt new technologies.
Legal factor- It is the factor which includes the changes in law or policies which effect
the business of Ryanair where the company is need to follow all of them. Few year before in year
2006, 17 workers of the Ryanair has filled the discrimination charges on the company which was
bases on gender and age.
Positive effect- It gives the competitive advantage to the company.
Negative effect- It need to invest more amount in maintain the new laws.
Environmental factor- With addressing the environmental issues, Ryanair has taken
different steps for protecting the environment. The pressure in not only form the government but
also from the public which make them to decease the waste in production and also the company
has changed their packaging material which was often used the plastic. Ryanair is encouraging
their customer to shop with tesco.com in this the van uses the fuel-saving route and also it
collects the plastic bag from the customer and they recycle them (Al-Kaabi and et. al., 2019).
Positive effect- Due to taking different action for protection, people like to buy their
product.
Negative effect- The cost of the company has increased due to resolving the plastic
issues.

CONCLUSION
From the above report, it can be conclude that it is necessary and crucial for any
organisation for timely analysis of internal and external factors which can affect the functioning
of the company or organisation. It is significant to make analysis for the environment which
consist of competitive factor through which company is able to form different strategy and can
deal with the external threat. The company need to overcome from the company weakness which
can further treat as the strength. This can make the company capture more market-share and able
to make more profit. Such activity can help in achieving the higher productivity of the company.
Mrs. Peacock has helped me to conduct this research effectively. It has helped me to manage the
work properly and evaluate different factors of business environment.
