This paperwork of BSA 376 Week 2 Discussion Question 2
contains:
Based on the Princes
Business - General Business
Individual
SDLC Value Paper
Write a 700- to 1,050-word paper that explains the
components of a formal SDLC process.
· Includea discussion of the basic elements of the SDLC.
· Identify types of employees involved in the SDLC process
and their roles (project manager, system analyst, developer).
Include a minimum of 2 references relevant to the
assignment, in addition to the textbook.
Format your paperconsistent withAPA guidelines.
Individual
Work-Related Project Analysis, Part I
Writea 1,400- to 2,100-word paper that analyzes a work-related
project using systems analysis for a selected business
system at the departmental or divisional level from your
workplace, an organization, or a case study (which doesn’t
have to be a health care facility).
· Includea discussion of the information-gathering
techniques and design methods used in the project.
· Analyze and evaluate what made the project a success or

2. failure.
Note: This situation is used as the basis for future individual
assignments.
Include3 to 4 references relevant to the assignment, in
addition to the textbook. These will likely relate to the best
practices in the area being discussed this week. The
references should not only provide definitions to the words
used, but also validate your discussion in the paper.
Formatyour paperconsistent withAPA guidelines.
Individual
Work-Related Project Analysis, Part II
Resource: Work-Related Project Analysis, Part I
Writea 1,400- to 2,100-wordpaper that analyzes the work-related
project specified last week, describing a workplace
application architecture and process design.
· Apply the tools of systems analysis to describe a work-related
information system’s architecture in terms of data,
processes, interfaces, and networks. Draw the physical and
data flow and any other necessary diagrams.Include an
explanation of eachdiagram. You may need to talk to your
systems department for some help.
· Prepare your diagrams usingMicrosoft® Visio®or other
software that will allow you to create SDLC diagrams.
Consider this assignment as an addition to the first part. This
assignment incorporates transition from analysis to design
for the selected system.
Include3 to 4 references relevant to the assignment, in
addition to the readings. These should relate to the best
practices in the area being discussed this week. References
should not only provide definitions to the words used, but
also validate your discussion in the paper.

3. Formatyour paperconsistent with APA guidelines.

Work-Related Project Analysis, Part III
Resources:Work-Related Project Analysis, Parts I and II
Note: Usethe same project addressed in the Work-Related
Project Analysis, Part II. Consider this as a follow-up,
incorporating the transition from design to implementation
for selected business system at the department or division
level.
Writea 1,400- to 2,100-wordpaper describing the
development and implementation stages for the situation
specified in previous weeks.Include the following:
· A discussion of major activities, including coding, testing,
installation, documentation, training, and support.Include
specific descriptions of how each activity would be planned
for the individual project. Provide reasonable assumptions
where needed.
· A discussion of benefits of using defined and repeatable
processes for accomplishing these activities for
implementation
Include3 to 4 references relevant to the assignment, in
addition to the assigned readings. These should relate to the
best practices in the area being discussed this week.
References should not only provide definitions to the words
used, but also validate your discussion in the paper.

website

4. Review the final project requirements.
Write a 4,200- to 5,600-word paper that applies the SDLC
methodology and tools presented in the course. The primary
goal is to apply workflow and process management concepts
in addressing specific needs of a selected functional area.
Assume both parts are presented to an executive
management committee. The paper must reflect professional
preparation.
Include, at minimum, the following elements in the paper:
· Business objectives with supporting measures of project
success
· Description of current business process or systems with
identification of project scope and boundaries
· Any project constraints: financial, time, resources,
organizational policies, or culture
· Business functional requirements
· Description of new business process or systems—use the
process objectivesmodel and the system objectivesmodel
· Design requirements: input/output design, interface design,
data model, network model
· Cost/benefit analysis
Formatyour paperconsistent with APA guidelines.
Create a 10- to 12- slide PowerPoint Presentation overview
of your final project.
Include detailed speaker notes.
Submitthe final paper and presentation.
Discussion Questions
Week One Discussion Questions
· Discuss one important element that must be completed in
three of the SDLC phases. What happens if that element is
missed or performed incorrectly?

5. · Describe at least two different approaches to a formal
SDLC. What type of specific health care system would match
well with each?
· Why is it important for an organization to have a formal
SDLC?
Week Two Discussion Questions
· Why is defining the proper scope for a project so
important? What are the dangers a project can face if the
scope is not tied down?
· Discuss the approaches used by at least two methodologies
to cover the scope, feasibility, and requirements generation
portion of the SDLC. What are some strengths and
weaknesses of each approach?
· What are some effects of using a database or other
hardware or software resources for a project? How can a
project best prepare to use outside resources effectively?
Week Three Discussion Questions
· Discuss three common constraints on the design
specifications for health care systems. Why is each important
and what effect does it have on the design?
· What are two security elements needed in the design of
health care systems? How can an organization be sure to
include appropriate security elements in the systems it
develops?
· Name a specific design flaw that could arise in a medical
system. Why does the flaw appear and what could be done
to prevent it?
Week Four Discussion Questions
· Discuss how two different SDLC methodologies might
approach the development and implementation phases. How
do the methodologies differ? How are they similar?

6. · Why does system development remain so challenging?
What tools are a...
