They are directly in contact with the clinic.
Manufactures
Manufacturers are the one who is producing the products. It does not produce the product based on the needs. They keep a target and produce the medicines because no disease could not be predicted so by without any specific target the products are made.
Retailers
Retailers are those who are supplying directly or indirectly to the organization. Some of the medicine could be directly obtained from the retailer but some are from indirect retailers so, for indirect retailers, suppliers are involved. They were in contact with the retailers both as direct and indirect.
Service providers
Service providers are staff who provides their services to the pets and their owner. When they arrived at the cline they will take care of the appointment, giving medicines etc.

Cost beneficial analysis
Cost beneficial analysis or cost-effectiveness analysis is a way of analyzing the economic estimation to relative cost that provides an efficient way to achieve the objective of the project. An economic analysis is important for every business plan that helps to take health care decision making. This is applied in three ways: to justify the defined strategy ex-ante analysis, to evaluate the contact of the current program and to evaluate the impact of past program ex-post analysis.
Ex-ante: this is the view of forecast events based on the possible prediction while Ex-post analysis is a view that looks at the result and events after they occurred. Estimated both of this will helps to estimate the annual cost of the project for the next two years. Below table contains the cost details that were used for the KU pet’s clinic project.
