Unit Code and Title: SBM4201 Systems Analysis and Design 

Assessment Overview

Assessment 1: Case Study-1

Assessment Details:

In this assignment, you have to perform a system analysis and design for the Nuk Restaurant System (NRS) case study provided at the case study section.

 case Study: Nuk Restaurant System (NRS)

The Nuk is a restaurant that opened in 2020 after its owners, Mala and Ashli, graduated from university. Both determined to open their restaurant in Sydney. They realize that they can be successful by collecting, analysing, and using the data that is available to them. Therefore, Nuk aims to collect data from their customers in a way that they can keep individual sales, loyal customers, the most popular food, or drink. For this purpose, customers require to create an account before their first visit to Nuk restaurant. The Information records on the online system consist of first and last name, residential address, city, zip code, mobile number, and email address. For digital purposes, a unique identification number is created for each customer. If the customers face any issues for creating an account or reserving a table, the advisor needs to support them. In this case, the online system needs to record the assigned advisor for each customer, by recording the name of the advisor who supports customer for each time. Regarding services, the new online system keeps the information in terms of name and type of services such as food, drink and the payment method (cash, credit card). Regarding reservation, the system records the number of tables that are booked and information related to special events (birthday).

Mala and Ashli, managers of the restaurant, hope to run an entirely testable procedure to the whole online system to find out any bug and significant issues before the final launch of the system.

The Nuk restaurant considers different methods to estimate the investments in this project. Table 1 presents the information the accountant provided to the system analyst to calculate Net Present Value (NPV), Payback Period and Return on Investment (ROI).

Tasks:

1. Develop your introduction and clearly define the aims and objectives of the report.
2. The Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) identifies all the activities required to build, launch, and maintain an information system. Discuss the six core processes of the SDLC required to develop the NRS project in detail.
3. Develop a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) description supported with a table for the NRS project explaining the ID, description, and duration for each task.
4. Develop PERT/CPM chart explaining the early and late start for each task. Identify the critical path and the total time to finish the project.
5. Use the information in Table 1, calculate the net present value, the payback period, and the return on investment by using a discount rate of 6 percent. The development costs for the project were $20,000. Do a five-year return on investment.

You may need to make some assumptions as required. Whenever you make assumptions, please state these clearly.
