Globalisation is defined as a process by which the international markets are
interconnected with each other. It results in large increase of trade and cultural exchange
among the nations. It leads to make countries interdependent in world by increasing the
volume of cross-border dealings of services and products. This particular report is based on

Jaguar has its headquarters in Whitley, England (Globalisation. 2019). The company was
responsible to produce jaguar cars until the operations of the company were merged with
Land Rover. From, 2013 it formed as Jaguar Land Rover. The following report mentions the
project management plan which include various aspects as costs, resources, scope, time,
risks, quality. It will also involves quantitative and qualitative research methods to investigate

collaborations with the company.

3. Ethical Impact- It involves rules and regulations formulated by the governments of
the countries. These rules are made to make a proper structure for the FDI to carry

particular customer base and to influence them to be the loyal customers of the
company with effective communication methods.
