Assignment details
Scenario
Mr Jordan Smith had always dreamed of cycling in the Tour de France. However, he chose to pursue engineering instead. Fortunately, Jordan became a successful mechanical engineer.
Jordan was successful but not fulfilled. He remembered his childhood dream of cycling through the French countryside. So, he started cycling to and from his engineering firm. Using his engineering knowledge, he began tinkering with his bicycle and eventually started building bicycles. His passion took off and he left his engineering career to create a bicycle manufacturing company, Velocycle Limited (Velocycle).
Beginning out of Jordan's garage, Velocycle was a huge success. In 2020, Velocycle opened its first factory and store in Onehunga, Auckland. Despite a struggling economy, Velocycle continued to grow due to public transport woes and the public’s growing environmental awareness. In 2024, Velocycle is looking to expand by opening a second factory and store in Wairau Valley on the other side of Auckland.
Jordan's company, Velocycle, had just gone through the process of building a large factory in Onehunga and the Development Manager, Ms Nikki Comer, had a good idea of the scope of work and scale of the factory and shop development in Auckland.
