IT-210-J5226 Bus Systems Analysis/Design 21EW5

For this project, you will play the role of an employee working for a small brick-and-mortar business. Your business is seeking to establish an online presence, but
it must first invest in new technology. You will create a business systems analysis to provide the business owner with your recommendations for a technology
solution that will support her venture into e-commerce.
The project is divided into two milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final
submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Three and Five. The final product will be submitted in Module Seven. Use the Final Project
template document to ensure you have met all requirements before submitting your final draft.
In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:
 Analyze a business organization for determining the business requirements related to information technology systems
 Articulate the role and function of information systems in business organizations for how they impact business operations
 Recommend appropriate information technology options for effectively supporting business operations
 Recommend basic security considerations related to business information systems for effectively securing company data
Prompt
Imagine that you work for the small brick-and-mortar business described in the final project case scenario. The owner of your business wants to focus on
generating new revenue through e-commerce, but she knows that this change in operations requires the company to integrate new technology. To gain an
understanding of what the business might need for technology, she has asked you to create a business systems analysis. In this analysis, you will clearly
introduce the problem that your business is facing. Then, you will determine the business requirements for solving that problem, including the requirements
that any new technology needs to meet. Next, you will explain how your competitors are using the two technologies in which you are investing, to determine 2
whether those technologies are appropriate for your business. Finally, you will propose your recommendations for the technology solution that best meets the
needs of your business, including what your business owner must consider in regard to security and privacy of company data.
Select two of the following technologies to focus on in your business systems analysis paper:
 Big data and knowledge management
 Wireless, mobile computing, and mobile commerce
 Social computing
 Cloud computing
 Business analytics and business intelligence solutions
 Intelligent systems
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Introduction: In this section, you will briefly introduce the small business from the case scenario, and the problem that it is trying to solve.
A. Clearly state the problem that the business owner is seeking to solve. Be sure to address the question of what your business ultimately wants to
do.
B. Identify and briefly describe the two technologies from the list provided that you will research in your business systems analysis.
II. Business Requirements: In this section, you will determine what the business requirements are for solving the stated problem, and establish the criteria
that will help form your technology recommendations. You will also articulate why the business owner should undertake the project of integrating new
technology.
