Stage 3 critism from professor:

1. Even if I accepted you approach to an ERP solution instead of selecting a simple process improvement, you have not complied with the requirements of this assignment. The idea is to rank the level of need of the attributes of your technical solution to the technical solution you have selected – Not to review the features of a software product. Your paper is not acceptable in this format. I will permit you to resubmit this week in the correct format. Let me know. We can discuss if you wish. If you want to do this, you will have two Case Study assignments due next week.

2.The purpose of this assignment is to identify your assessment of the degree of need of your technical solution for the attributes listed, and your rationale for that decision – not what your solution offers.  The center column should contain only H, M, L, or N/A (as indicated in the column head), and the Explanation column is to justify the reason for that decision relative to the health club.

 Your submission continues to identify the features available in the software solution you selected. 

 I explained this to you quite explicitly in my comments to your first submission, and again, in class this week. 

Also, some of your explanations misinterpret the attribute (i.e. Acessability is about varying levels of access, not remote operation).

 PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND UNDERSTAND THE ASSIGNMENT BEFORE PROCEEDING OR I WILL DISPUTE PAYMENT 

Stage 3

Using the case and the provided template (containing IT considerations such as architecture, security, etc.), identify and explain which areas in particular need to be considered more fully for the solution proposed in Stage 2. Your template will be completed in the format provided (Word).

Stage 4

Using the case provided, identify how the solution from Stage 2 could support and enhance the business, explain the business benefits of the solution, and address the considerations put forward in Stage 3. Your deliverable will be an executive briefing in Microsoft PowerPoint.

Stage 5

Using the case provided, prepare an annotated outline that identifies the next steps in implementing the solution proposed in stage 4, addressing project management, system development life cycle, change management, etc. Your outline will be developed in Microsoft Word.
