The business that we have chosen for our group project is The Student Factory (TSF). TSF is an evening coaching center based in DHA, Lahore, that specializes in the training of Standardized Tests, A level and O level examinations. The foundation of this institute was laid by two alumni of LUMS with the aim to revamp the methodologies used to help students prepare for such examinations.

The Student Factory started its operations with the preparation of O Level, A Level and SAT Examination. The idea was to introduce the concept of one on one coaching methodology and focus on continuous practice and feedback sessions. The teachers at the institute are all graduates of LUMS who teach either full or part time at the institute.

In addition to tutoring, TSF also counsels students and helps them secure admissions into different universities, locally and abroad. TSF works with different universities and pathway providers across the world, helping students get admissions in foreign universities.

The Student Factory is also known for general grooming and training of students in helping them prepare for university experience. The company has planned and conducted Pre- Semester and other training workshops at universities like LUMS. The institute works with students on curriculum based modules such as SAT, GRE etc. and also soft skills such as presentation skills, confidence building etc.

There are numerous reasons we have decided to work on this particular business for our group project. First of all, it is a startup by LUMS graduates (one of whom is currently in our group as well) which brings a lot of excitement. Secondly, TSF has done various workshops at LUMS, working with the admissions and outreach department- we would like to explore the core business practices of the firm and how are they tapping into universities as consultants. Thirdly, we believe that the business has a lot of room for expansion especially in the university consultancy project; with the upcoming concept of pathway providers to universities, the organization can have a major impact in placing students into foreign universities. Moreover a business in the education sector like the one we chose gives good returns with little investments. We would therefore like to explore and find out if it's true or not.
