business plan-

Market potential
• The housing for the people with the disability market is at growth as
around a $5 billion over the next five years in National Disability
Insurance Scheme (NDIS).
• Furthermore, the proportion of the disable people has been rising
where almost 3.96 million people, 19% of all males and 20.1% of
females have disability (Australian Bureau of Statistics, ABS 2018).
• The data supports the size of the market in which the community is
willing to perform the operations.
• However, this has been witnessed that the housing facilities are not
easily availed by the young people and kids who are disable due to
which there is need of the venture that offers secure home with food
to the people which comfort their lives.

Supply chain partners

business model of the business.
• In the proposed business, there will be some of the venture partners
which include farmers who offer the raw material and crops which are
essential to manufacture the products.
• The company will form the partnership with Chefgood who offers the
healthy meals, freshly made by the chefs and nutritionists on weekly
basis. In addition, there will be partnership with the Government
Doctors for weekly check-ups which is essential for the disable issues
faced by the candidates.
• These doctors will provide their services which are considered as the
supply of their services.

Management structure
• Christ Foster care services will need a
“centralised delegation where a single person will
control all the activities of the proposed plan.
• Furthermore, it is an social charitable company,
which will avail services for free or at reasonable
price.
• For the proposed venture, the organisation
structure is flat structure which reflects how the
activities like the allocation of task, coordination
and supervision has been done.
• The higher manager will distribute the work or
allocate the task to the people who are
volunteering for offering the services.
