I. FIND KEY ISSUES
Case: Alcon Laboratories Inc.
 Background of the Problem
In this case the focus is on developing new products which if successful
the company will get high profits (high investment), but have a very
high risk of failure. In the process of product development, the Alcon
Company relies on other pharmaceutical companies, to obtain
compounds which will be processed into new products.
Meanwhile, to develop the new Alcon Company product, Leone and
Raval held a meeting with the Alcon Company to ensure that they had a
good understanding of market trends and the amount of resources
available by setting program goals and priorities. then directors and
managers in each medical specialization group determine the working
hours of the resources needed.
Alcon wants to encourage them to develop new ideas without many
obstacles, so the company does not need standards to document these
goals. so when the manager revisits the differences, the manager cannot
require them to explain because it turns out that this is not contained in
the employment contract.
 Problem
- Because Alcon Company is depend on other pharmaceutical
companies which need a long time, causing the Alcon Company
market segment will be known to other pharmaceutical companies
and resulting in the Alcon Eye Care market's segment to be taken
over by other companies.
- The work agreement is done incomplete, so if there is different in
budgeting reports from the company side doesn’t have right to ask
the researcher more detail.

II. CONSIDER CONTROL TIGHTNESS


I think the company must exercise people control for each researcher so
there is no misunderstanding between the researcher and the management
company itself. With the existence of people control, it can be expected
that researchers can carry out their duties in accordance with what is
desired by the management company and not only that the objectives of the
company will be realized.

III. CONSIDER CONTROL COST


To control costs, as I said before there must be good communication
between researchers and management so that there are no cost errors
between the two, so there is no difference in costs. People control is really
needed in this case because with people control, cost control can be
handled well.

IV. PURPOSE
People Control, because:
- make contract agreements with other pharmaceutical companies, so that
confidential or information from Alcon companies can be maintained
- management of Alcon companies can improve communication between
researchers and company management
