Portsmouth council case study:
The services related to the Portsmouth city council management has been
different from the rest of the local authorities and these have been retaining the
direct ownership and the housing stock management. During July 2006, the
council was provided with better ratings and wee appraised by the Audit
commissions. The further investigation was proposed by the authorities of the
council in manner to analyse the current situation and propose a better and
efficient problem solving matter that can be implemented for the growth and
development of the project.
The system engineering assesses the following appropriate and effective steps
those could be driven for the identification of the best course of action that
could be delivered for solving the identified problems.
Check: this will include the consideration of the facts associated with the
demand, system purpose, capability, and flow related to the entire management
and execution services. Finally, it is a process that can be utilized for the
identification of the AS – IS process of the organization and analyse them in
efficient and effective manner.
Plan: This section will allow the manager to emphasize on the valuable steps
those could be practiced for the ultimate enhancement in the production and
output of the project and delivering a sophisticated structure that can
contribute in the enhancement of the production and output of the
organization.
Do: After analysing the above facts, proper strategies can be delivered for the

The above process are the starting point through which the strategies can be
implemented for the enhancement in the production and output of the
organization and allowing the organization to improve the services.
