BSBADM409A – Coordinate Business Resources

Business resources are generally anything that the business needs to operate. There are 4 different categories of resources, Physical resources, Intellectual resources, human resources and financial resources. All of these resources are needed by the business to operate.

It is important to assess organisational; requirements because it allows the organisation has all the resources need to operate effectively and carry out any projects for development and improvement. Assessing organisation requirements also identifies whether there are any resources that have not been considered or if the requirements are too high for the company.

It is important to look at the stock level reports and identify if there were any shortages or excess resources that were wasted. You can then use these figures to assess whether the organisation needs to increase or reduce the resources purchased and consumed.

Some ways to monitor resources are:

Sustainability – sustainability is a very effective way of saving money, by reducing the amount of resources used. The most common example would be reducing the amount of energy consumed to save money on electricity bills.

Buy Second hand equipment and tools – Although many business owners want their café to look and feel new, second hand items can still be in very good condition, and can save a significant amount of money.

Social Media Advertising – Advertising costs can be very expensive. Television, Radio, Newspaper, etc are all mass media advertising and can cost too expensive for small businesses. Using social media can help grow business such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc.

In order to develop a resource plan, you must first consult with staff:

Investors because they invest money into the company for the company to grow. They are selling, or investing their money, for the hope of bigger returns.

Employees are trading their personal skills and services for a salary

Managers assist with the managing and guidance of staff for money.

Suppliers trade supplies and raw materials for cash

Trainers trade their expertise in training and coaching employees for cash.

Cleaners trade their cleaning skills and services for cash.

You must then look at the budget to identify previous resource requirements.

The best method for keeping track of the fundraising resources is to record each transaction or receipt carefully and make sure that the records are kept safe.
