Scenario

Open View, LLC installs window treatments for homes and offices. They have a large mobile workforce that spends most of the time out in the field with customers. The salespeople follow up on customer leads, visit the homes or offices, take the orders and measurements, order the window treatments, accept payments from customers, and maintain liaison with the customer until the project is completed. The installers are also mobile, obtaining their work assignments on a daily basis, and reporting progress, problems, and completion. Much of this is currently done by telephone, but Open View wants to implement a wireless network to connect the sales force to the corporate customer, materials, ordering, and finance databases. They want to provide the same wireless access for the sales and installation personnel when they are in the office. You will list and define the requirements, create the project steps that need to be completed, identify the technology that needs to be incorporated, identify issues and security risks, and explain how testing will be done to ensure that requirements are met and the wireless network is secure.

The Deliverable

You will develop an MS PowerPoint presentation that

· explains the business problem,

· lists the requirements,

· identifies the technology solutions,

· lists major project steps,

· identifies issues and security risks, and

· Explains testing to be done to ensure that requirements are met and the network is secure.

One or more of the presentation slides should contain a table with requirements and corresponding technology solutions. The presentation should also contain appropriate diagrams and illustrations.

It should be designed as a professional presentation with appropriate background, fonts, titles, etc. Separate slides should be included for the cover, the list of topics covered (agenda), the body of the presentation, and the conclusion. Slides should contain the main points in bullet form, with the text of your presentation (what the speaker would say) contained in the Notes section accompanying each slide. The bolded attributes in the Scoring Rubric below must be used as major agenda items in the presentation.

IFSM 370 Project 1

To fully demonstrate the effective writing learning objectives, students should use the "6/6 Rule" when writing bullets. This means that there should be no more than six meaningful words in each bullet and no more than six bullets on a slide. Presentations that do not follow this standard may not be successful

Attribute

Full points

Partial points

No points

Possible Points

Requirements analysis/

technology solution table

Requirements analysis/technology solution appropriately addresses the business scenario/problem, and demonstrates understanding of course concepts, analysis, and critical thinking.

Requirements analysis/technology solution somewhat addresses the business scenario/problem; it may be lacking in demonstration of understanding of course concepts, analysis, and/or critical thinking.

Requirements analysis/technology solution table is not included, or does not identify requirements or solutions appropriate to the scenario.

2

Major project steps

Major project steps to implement the solution are appropriately identified.

Major project steps to implement the solution are partially identified and/or are somewhat appropriate.

Major project steps are not included.

2

Issues and security risks identified

Issues and risks of the proposed solution are appropriately identified; work demonstrates understanding of course concepts, analysis, and critical thinking.

Issues and risks of proposed solution are partially identified; work may be lacking in demonstration of understanding of course concepts, analysis, and/or critical thinking.

Issues and risks are not included, or do not apply to the proposed solution.

1.5

Testing strategy

An effective testing strategy that tests capabilities and security is proposed; work demonstrates understanding of course concepts, analysis, and critical thinking.

Testing strategy is not well-defined or not appropriate, and/or may be lacking in demonstration of understanding of course concepts, analysis, and/or critical thinking.

No testing strategy is included.

1

Diagram

Diagram(s) are included, appropriately incorporated, and enhance understanding of the solutions proposed.

Diagram(s) are included, but may not be appropriately incorporated, and may not enhance understanding of solutions proposed.

No diagrams are included.

1

Presentation content

Sufficient narrative is included in the Notes area to fully explain the content of the presentation; work demonstrates understanding of course concepts.

Narrative provided partially covers the content; work may be lacking in demonstration of course concepts.

No narrative is provided in the Notes area to supplement the content on the slides.

1.5

Presentation format

The presentation reflects effective organization, creative design, and correct structure of slides, grammar, and spelling; it is presented in a professional format; and references are appropriately incorporated and cited, using APA style.

The presentation is not well-organized, lacks effective design, and/or contains grammar and/or spelling errors; and/or it does not follow APA style for references and citations.

The presentation is extremely poorly done and does not convey the information.
