INTRODUCTION
Background
Globalisation is defined as ongoing process which is linking people on the continuous
basis which may include people, regions, cities, countries etc, which are coming closer than ever
before. Due to the process of globalisation, entire world has turned in the global village and has
resulted in the transfer ideas, knowledge, skills, people, products and services as well (Bailey,
Jones. and Rosenbaugh, 2018). Globalisation is not a new process but has accelerated quickly
after the second world war and it has been successful in changing the lives of the people across
the world. This has majorly lad effects on the environment, governments, cultures and companies
as well.
Globalisation can help the companies in expanding the business by joint venture, which
will mitigate the competition. Cultural awareness is also the result in which the culture of various
nation is known. It helps in cooperation between companies. It also helps in improving the
relationship among countries. The economies of the nations become interdependent because of
the Globalisation. Selling can be done in large scale and also marketing can be done on the large
size of the nation spread across various nation. Globalisation create more opportunities for a
business to grow and expands its business.

The objectives of the Large Fashion company are as follows:
 To prepare a project management strategy for completing the project on time.
 To analyse the competition in the market by which testing of the product can be done
before launching the new product in the market successfully.
 To develop strategies for optimising the product sales at the launch event.

P2 Project Management Plan
The Project Management Plan is a document on which every phase of the project and the
future action to be taken on the research are described in detail. There are various factors are
covered such as cost of the project, time taken to complete the research, etc.
Cost
Here for the research report the plan will include the cost of the product which is going to
be 2000 ponds as a budget (Larson. and Chang, 2016). The funds are going to be arranged from
taking loan form micro finance bank.
Scope
The scope in the future that will be included in the plan is going to be its demand in the
future. In the scope the analytical method used will be Regression Analysis and this method will
be used in order to do analysis of the targeted audience and planning deadlines of the new launch
of the product.
Time
The time taken to complete the project will be two days in which the researcher will do
deep analysis of the market from online as well offline sources.
Quality
In the plan the quality of the research will be given special importance in which the
reliable source will taken for the study of the research in which the sources will be used such as
LexisNexis and Info Trac in order toe increase the quality of the report.
Communication
Communication will be used in the plan via PPT presentation and graphic and video
presentation by using verbal communication.
Risk
The various risk included in the plan will be the financial risk in which the risk related to
investing in wrong sources will be considered and the other financial risk considered will
considered is investing in the software that the software may or may not work. The risk that will
be included in the plan will be strategic risk in which the strategy made will work or not for the
new product launch will be considered (Tidd. and Bessant, 2018). The last risk that will be
included in the plan will be the Time risk in which the timely completion of the report will be the
risk.

P4 Research methodology
Research methodology is the set principles which are used to identify, process, select as
well as analyse the information which is about a topic. In the research methodology research
allows the reader to do critically evaluation of the data and reliability of the data. There are two
important questions which are addressed in the research methodology and are how the data was
collected and how the data was analysed.
RESEARCH PHILOSOPHY
It is a phenomenon in which the belief is about how the data is gathered, then analysed an
then used. There are two methods used in the research known as interpretivism for the qualitative
research in which the research depends upon researcher which is trained and human subjects that
are instrument. The other method is the positivism method is for the quantitative research which
recognise which is verified scientifically and with mathematical proof. Here in the research
interpretivism is used because for the new launch of the product it will help in doing deep
analysis of the market and also helps in understanding the complex data.
Research Approach
This is the procedure by which methods which are detailed for the data collection as well
as interpretation of the data is done. There are two methods for the approach. Inductive approach

is used for the observation as well as theory usage. It is a qualitative method of research. The
other method used for the research is the Quantitative research approach known as Deductive test
in which hypothesis is used for the data and then collection as well as analysis of the data is
done. Here the approach used is the Inductive approach because this approach will help in doing
further investigation of the data and the data is reliable under this approach (Kumar. and
Yakhlef, 2016). This method is also useful for understanding the various behaviours of the
customers by which the the similar variant of the product can be driven to them based on the
profile of the customers.
DATA COLLECTION
The study results greatly depends upon collection of data and the way it is analysed and
interpreted. Data collection can be of primary and secondary type. In primary data collection data
is collected by researcher through methods such as questionnaire, interview and survey. With the
help of primary data collection it is possible for the researchers to analyse the latest trends which
are helpful for drawing relevant conclusions (Leung, 2015). Contrary to this in secondary data
collection methods secondary data sources such as books, articles, journals and literature sources
of other researchers are used. Secondary data collection provides strong evidences and in-depth
perspectives of various dimensions of the issue. In this study primary data collection through a
questionnaire is used so that the target customers participating in London fashion week can be
approached and more realistic data can be collected.
SAMPLING
The selection of large population size for the primary data collection makes research less
feasible and time consuming. Thus a small section or population size is chosen for the study and
it called as sampling. Sampling is of two types probability and non-probability sampling. In
probability sampling participants are chosen randomly so that each individual have equal
probability of getting selected (Hair Jr and et.al., 2015). On the other hand in non-probability
sampling participants are chosen on the basis of specific criteria for the study purpose. In this
study simple random sampling is used and 20 participants taking part in the London Fashion
week are chosen for collecting data. The use of this sampling approach in this study helps to
conduct a more precise and less bias outcomes.
DATA ANALYSIS

Data analysis is defined as the approach to analyse and interpret the collected data. There
are various techniques for analysing different types of data. The quantitative data is usually
analysed by statistical tools such as SPSS, mean mode and other statistical tools while qualitative
data can be analysed using systematic review or thematic analysis (Patten and Newhart, 2017).
The use of statistical tools is beneficial for the studies which aims to derive mathematical
relation between several study variables. In this study thematic analysis is used. The use of
themes for the data interpretation is beneficial in exploring a central theme and a summarised
conclusions on the basis of data.
ETHICAL CONSIDERATION
For enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of the research it is important that ethical
aspects must also be taken into account. While conducting data the formal consent of the
participants is necessary. All the study participants must be informed about purpose and methods
of conducting study so that they can freely provide consent. It is also the responsibility of the
researcher to assure that privacy and safety of the sample population must be protected (Palinkas
and et.al., 2015). The participants must also have right to withdraw from the study at any instant.
Another important ethical consideration in the study is that dignity of the participants must be
respected. Thus no harm must be caused to the individuals during any stage of the research.
