The place of sport facility (Case Study)

1- Comment on how the variables 'facility planning' and 'physical evidence' apply to the different sections of this case study.

The different facility planning and physical evidence in this situation will help to keep the stadium or any building 'alive' and to bring some money back on investment. The fact that you are building a building for a major event does not mean that you can forgot what you can do with it, as like making it the home ground of a sport club for example.

2- Comment on how the variables 'people' and 'process' apply to the different sections of this case study.

What is the population that you have to deal with, where the facilities are located.

3- Can you think of other standars that may remplace 'cost per seat' as a better means to account for facility construction costs? Justify.

The location of the stadium can affect the cost per seat, just as the quality of the field and the facilities

4- Given the different distribution channels presented in the figure, can you argue the most likely (future) distribution channel for spectator sport? You may want to consider the strategic distribution principle of 'vertical integration'.

I would say the channel A where the club communicate to the provider and then reach the consumer.
But i also believe that if you want to increase the sales of a product, the channel D would be the best, because from the manufacturer you can reach the athlete throught their agents and they will act like example for the consumers. then the wholesaler and the retailer to end to the consumer. This channel would hit more people and spectators.
