DEFINE THE PROBLEM:
Main Problem:
Financial Problem * In our own understanding, we believe that the Pampanga Cement Corporation’s main difficulty is their current financial position. We came out of this idea because according to their case, almost all of their problems could be solved if they have substantial amount of cash, savings, or capital on-hand. And we believe that if this main problem is answered, the management would have a better working environment compared to their current problematic atmosphere.

Sub-Problems: * Energy Crisis – the government is pushing cement corporations to change from using bunker fuel to coal which will require Pampanga Cement Corporation to upgrade/change their equipment for production, the conflict here is that they doesn’t have the needed amount of money or credit to avail this system upgrade for the current period due to some financial difficulties the company is facing. * Labor Union – Workers want to have a 10% increase to their wages but unfortunately, the company cannot easily comply due to the arising possibilities of oil price hike. Oil being one of the company’s main raw materials for production equipment and machineries for logistics, it will surely affect their financial status if they approve the wage increase and greater problems will arise. * Receivables Scandal – A deal worth Php 30 Million worth of products from Mr. Ah Tong Chui
