The store will create more friendly and welcoming environment. The goal is to have a business where people can come buy books set and have coffee eat baked goods or come in and buy baked goods.

SOW

This project will create a place for everyone to come and read or have meetings with friends or stop and grab something on the run. The product of this project is to have books, sweets enjoys a cup of coffee. We plan to have the coffee and bakery one unit. I will be the first thing when you walk in. The high level of deliveries is making sure the customers are happy and making sure they come back.

Objectives

The objective is to open a place where you can have multiple things in one business. It makes it easier so you are not running around everywhere.

Business Need

High-Level Project Constraints

What are the major limiting factors that affect the project?

The major limiting factor might be there is too much to do. Instead of opening one business it will be like opening three or two because the coffee you will get from the bakery.

Exclusions and Boundaries

What are the boundaries of the project? What is to be included and what is to be excluded from the project?

A place where the bookstore will have a good amount of foot traffic and is highly visible and easily accessible. It should exclude being around a lot of other bookstores.

Major Risks

What are the major risks affecting the project?

Going over budget, and not being in a good location. Team not working together, but that is not a big risk because Heather will be doing most of the work here. The bookstore and bakery is not to people liking.
