Using this information, create an analysis that  addresses the following requirements:Description: Before you make recommendations to fix the system, you  must first describe the system in its current state. In your analysis, identify the parts of the current system,  and consider the main nodes of the system and the high-level processes  and components in place at Lost Pines Outfitters. Once you have  identified the parts of the system, describe the interactions and relationships between parts of the system and identify and describe the feedback loops in the system.Recommendations: Once you have described the current system, examine  the problems offered by the client. Using systems thinking principles, pose recommendations to existing systems based on client needs and systems thinking best practices.  In your recommendation, consider both the interactions and  relationships between parts of the system, as well as the feedback loops  present. Then, describe the potential impact of changes to the system.  In your recommendations and description, focus on the application of  systems thinking concepts and best practices to the identified problems.Modeling: Following your analysis and recommendation, construct a model of a system including recommended changes.  This model should represent your recommended changes and include parts,  interactions, relationships, and feedback loops for your recommended  changes.Conclusion: In the conclusion of your analysis, describe the benefits of systems thinking within a business environment.  In this description, demonstrate how the application of systems  thinking allowed you to analyze the problems and equipped you to solve  the identified issues.What to SubmitTo complete this project, you must submit the following:Systems AnalysisGenerate a report that analyzes  the current systems in place at Lost Pines Outfitters and recommends  changes to these systems/processes in line with client requests.
