Stage 4:Final System Report
Before you begin this assignment, be sure you have read the Case Study and the feedback you received on your first three staged assignments.
Purpose of this Assignment
This assignment gives you the opportunity to explain and justify a system proposal to gain approval to proceed with the project. This assignment addresses all of the course outcomes to enable you to:
plan, build, and maintain systems that meet organizational strategic goals by demonstrating the use of enterprise architecture and applying enterprise governance principles and practices need assessment apply a systematic approach to translate requirements into an executable systems design effectively communicate with stakeholders to determine, manage, and document business requirements throughout the SDLC perform modeling to assist with analysis and decision making.
Assignment
The proposed systems design is documented in the form of a Final Systems Report. This report defines objectives and how the proposed system design will satisfy them. The primary purpose of the report is to inform and gain approval to proceed with the project. It should be presented in terms that management and users understand. The Final System Report will be compiled from the previously submitted Staged Assignments, supplemented with information about implementation personnel requirements and time and cost estimates. Rather than paste together all of the previous assignments, the outline below should be followed and will require you to re-arrange sections of the previous assignments.
All of the information you need to complete the projects in this class is not provided in the case study. In the discussion area of the classroom, there is a discussion titled “Case Study Interview Questions” where you can pose questions about the case study, as if you were interviewing the people in the case study organization. Any information that you need that is not included in the case study should be asked about in this discussion. Responses from the faculty member on behalf of the case study organization will be available for everyone in the class.
Use the case study and the Case Study Interview Questions discussion, your previously submitted staged assignments (including the feedback received), and resources and source documents (previously submitted documents, as corrected) listed below to create a Final System Report in the format provided. Note that sections are re-organized and some paragraphs may need to be re-written using earlier content but presented as required here. Items highlighted in yellow indicate sections that need to be added to or created for this Report.
