Proposed System
Name of Software Offer: DashViz - A Business intelligence
Dashboard with sophisticated tools for data exploration.
System development recommendation-
After an exhaustive investigation heavily focused on the
14. business’ demands, the Information Systems team has provided
its definite professional opinion. Developing the Business
Intelligence Dashboard from the ground up, using a secure web-
based approach appears to be the most suitable method.
This method of implementation provides the highest level of
customization, which will be fitted to our business needs and
allows for ease of access for both internal and external users to
the application without the need to download any software.
Utilization Purposes-
The development of this dashboard will be heavily focused on
the manipulation of data and visual, dynamic representation of
the data types most used by Swift Trade Corp.
· Product data- Data displaying products features, important for
supply chain, inventories, and pricing.
· Customer information data – This provides details about the
customers buying from our website and their purchases.
· Sales data- Includes all the transactions for the current day
and historic accountings. Used to optimize prices, predict
demand, and develop a marketing plan.
Benefits of the Software-
· The Business intelligence dashboard will aid professi onals to
quickly gain insights into the most important aspects of their
data
· Dashboards are vital for better decision making
· The Administration department, Managers and Stakeholders
will benefit by reviewing the bigger picture of operations.
· The Marketing department will gain deeper insights into the
market's movement and take business decisions accordingly.
· managers to review the bigger picture of business operations
· Provides the ability to view real time financial results such as
revenue and expenses.
Other Alternatives-
15. The team has weighed the alternatives, some of which include
using existing out-of-the-box software which can be costly and
lacks customizability, in some cases the risk of exposure of
sensitive business data has been an important deciding factor.
The alternative yielding the highest software efficiency and
performance is the app-based approach, but there are known
issues to this; Accessibility computers using different operating
systems can be complex, employees report to use primarily use
Windows as their operating System, but a significant number
utilize MacOS and Linux which both have an Arm-based
architecture compared to the x-64 x-86.
A backwards combability extension can be arranged, though it
would drastically prolong the timeline for this project and
compromises performance.
Feasibility Assessment
Ideas
A. cost estimates -> budget allocation and estimated
expenditures will be included in a cost estimate table’
B. Intangible benefits
C. Technical
The only technical risk the company faces with the creation of
the new dashboard is a security issue or bugs. There will be
ongoing maintenance for the software which is to be included in
the cost analysis.
D. Operational
All staff will be trained on the new dashboard to recognize their
key performance indicators and management will coach
everyone who is lacking in KPIs.
E. Inclusions/Exclusions
Marketing will gain insight into key performance indicators
