Your written report should have a maximum of 15 pages (single spaced, 11pt). Cover
page, references, table of contents and appendix (if any) will not count towards the page limit.
Please keep in mind that making good use of your audience’s time is an essential business
skill: every sentence, table or figure should serve a purpose.

Problem description
Please start by carefully reading through the Project Outline pdf document posted on the
page containing the full dataset for your industry project. Focus on the Problem Description
section of the Project Outline, especially the corresponding second and third bullet points
(Modelling and Strategy). Both your analysis and your recommendations should be in line with
the requirements/suggestions provided in the Project Outline.
Your task as a group is to build on the insights discovered in the first assignment and to use
any appropriate statistical/machine learning modelling tools to address the questions relevant
to your industry project. Ensure that you justify the selection of your final model(s) and
interpret the model(s) in terms of the key attributes or features. If your best-performing
models are too complex for this interpretation, we suggest that you also consider well- performing simpler
models.
