LRC can also use this reputation to attract people to join the club. Another thing is that the club does not have its own server and it has to rely on Quill Consultancy Pty Ltd. Moreover, there is no specialized IT staff in the club. Some employees do have some know-how of IT but they are not skilled enough to run the website properly. LRC really needs some specialized person in the field of IT in order to administer the website properly. Shortage of funds is another reason behind improper and insufficient administration of the website. LRC needs a considerable amount of funds not only to do proper developments regarding the website but also to compete in the market.

10.2 Process Maturity
Process maturity is directly related to the overall performance of all processes of a company. As far as LRC is concerned, the club manages all of its processes based on the standard of performance set for each of those processes. There are some levels set by the club management to analyse the process maturity. At the lower level, there are no repeatable processes and the daily activities are carried out as ad-hoc and chaotic whereas, at the top level, the club uses defined and repeatable processes that make use of performance indicators to support continuous improvement of all business processes. The club uses five standard scales for measuring the performances of different business processes. At present, the club stands at level 1 but the management is putting all efforts to move up to the next level and this objective can only be achieved through continuous motivation and commitment.
