Analyze a business case study by applying Systems Analysis and Design concepts, principles, processes, and techniques

Assignment Instructions

Purpose

The purpose of this assignment is to create a Vision Statement for your Case Study project so that we can summarize the important features of the new system. This also provides an opportunity for you to gain insight into the Case Study and its scope for future development activities.

Objectives

CO4: Develop major life cycle deliverables like Vision Document, SRS (Software Requirements Specification), or SDD (System Design Document)

CO7: Apply requirements gathering and other traditional analysis techniques

CO9: Analyze a business case study by applying Systems Analysis and Design concepts, principles, processes, and techniques

(SLO): Apply industry driven techniques for designing, developing, deploying, and securing enterprise applications

Directions

1. System Vision Document

During systems analysis one of the tasks we need to complete is to plan for the project so that we understand the components that will be needed for our project. Although many tasks occur during the early stages/phases of system development, one of the deliverables (work products) is the System Vision Document which provides an executive summary in bare essentials of a statement of the problem we are trying to solve, the capabilities and features of the system, constraints, risks, stakeholders, and other features.

2. Discussions and Examples

The following provides links to a discussion on vision statements, how to create one, and an example. Review these references before you create your Vision statement for our Case Study. Please see the Additional Resources for a discussion of a Vision Statement, how to create one, and an example.
