Instructions in uploaded files. You will have to use my business idea that I have uploaded in a pdf format to answer a few questions. Use the SCALABILITY 4.0 AS THE MAIN RENT
IN INDUSTRY 4.0: THE CASE STUDY OF AMAZON file to base the essay on.

Modify according to the requirements of the yellow texts（20 total points） written by the professor in the PDF. 
The most important thing is that the SFAS part needs relatively major changes. Please refer to SFAS in Term paper section 1 provided by me below。 
TOWS also pay attention to modifying it according to the requirements. The specific requirements are as follows. 
Finally, combine section1 and section2 and give it to me.（The main thing is to modify the yellow texts part of section2, and then connect the two articles together.）
Term paper Final Draft
Make your adjustments to each section according to suggestions provided by your instructor, add a brief introduction and history (maximum one page total).  This is the time to polish up your work and put your best efforts into finishing the paper. 
If you have had suggestions on adjustments to be made to your paper, I strongly suggest you make an effort to make them.  Not addressing issues that have been pointed out to you may result in significant penalties to your grade. If you feel that your original version was correct, or better than the suggestion, note the suggestion and counter it by noting any faults in the critique and supporting your own views on what should be done.  In these cases, the grade will be on your reasoning and supporting information.
The final paper should have all citations combined into a single list and attached to the end of the paper.

IDS Application and Leadership

The CSU Global Library (Links to an external site.) is a good place to find these references.https://csuglobal.libguides.com/library

You have completed nine (9) modules in your study of business ethics and social responsibility (MGMT 325). You have been exposed to definitions of ethics, governance, corporate social responsibility, values, and culture. You have also learned about the interactions, relationships, and influences of employees, employers, stakeholders, and the environment. You have reached the end of this course and it is time for your third and final Reflection Analysis assignment.
Along that train of thought, please craft Reflection Analysis number three, or Final as it is titled via the guidelines. Before you begin, review the Reflection Analysis Paper Guidelines. Also, consult the grading rubric for detailed evaluation criteria.
For this assignment, please offer a clear, concise, and first-person analysis. In your analysis, be honest, be respectful of yourself, and be respectful of the reader.
Once you have completed your reflection analysis paper, take the time to read it through. Reading aloud may help you identify any grammatical errors. You may find it helpful to ask yourself:
Did the paper get across the reflection you were expecting?
Is the paper in the current APA style?
After reading the reflection, what do you want the audience to take away?

You hold the role of Human Resource Director and are responsible for envisioning the future trajectory of your department. After identifying available space suitable for a computer lab, your task is to determine the optimal number of terminals required for this facility.
As you strategize the implementation of a computer lab in your facility, it’s essential to outline the budget required for acquiring the necessary terminals. Below is a breakdown of the estimated costs associated with procuring equipment:
Terminals: The primary expense revolves around the terminals themselves. Research various options to find terminals that meet your department’s requirements in terms of performance, durability, and affordability. Based on your needs assessment, estimate the cost per terminal. (Include an actual Dollar Figure with supported Links, Amazon Links would probably work best, but it’s up to you)
Peripherals: Consider additional peripherals required for each terminal, such as monitors, keyboards, mice, and headphones. These peripherals contribute to the overall functionality and usability of the computer lab. (Include an actual Dollar Figure with supported Links, Amazon Links would probably work best, but it’s up to you)
Furniture and Ergonomic Accessories: Allocate funds for desks, chairs, and ergonomic accessories to create a comfortable and conducive learning environment within the computer lab. (Include an actual Dollar Figure with supported Links, Amazon Links would probably work best, but it’s up to you)
Contingency: Set aside a portion of the budget for unforeseen expenses or adjustments that may arise during the procurement and implementation process. (Include an actual Dollar Figure) Once you have estimated the costs for each component, sum them up to determine the total budget required for setting up the computer lab with the desired number of terminals. Include a table, or Grid in the Project Outline. Upload Your PDF.
