Overview
Estations Inc., a company that was formed from the merger of two giant tech companies Major Electric Corp (MEC) and The Electric Car Company (TECC) jointly established a business entity known. The purpose of this business merger was to develop operational stations in areas that were geographically close to the city. Proximity to the town was an essential enabler of the city dweller not only to park their electric cars during daily office hours but also to recharge them. The company intends to utilize the Shelf Software for many of the primary purposes. Also, there is the need to come up with various stations meant for electric car parking while they work in the office. As the cars park, they can also recharge the batteries as this also saves more time. The company is in the process of establishing an exceptional organization upon which I will head significant methods, including management of database, creation, and administration of application as well as software.
The first step upon assuming my roles as the head of the new organization will be to identify the entities. The significant objects include Estations.inc formed from the merger of two major tech giants. The second entity will be the new organization where I will be the head. The fourth entity will be the parking, and the fourth entity will be the creation of application as well as the management of the database.
The other necessary process will be defining the primary keys. The primary keys could be Estation Inc as to the name of the company, the name of the new organization that Estatino envisions to establish, the Car parking program, a code recording system for the electric cars, electric cars, and the employees.
In this ERD paper, I intend to conduct comprehensive research on the contemporary state of Estations Inc. and especially the signs of progress the company wants to make after its merger. As a new entity, the company has envisioned to accomplish various goals including the establishment of a new company, creation of an electric car park, creation of applications as well as the appropriate use of the database to increase profitability. It is also important to note that since its merger, Estation Inc. has recorded an increase in the number of electric parking in areas proximity to the city. Information needs here apply in the sense that the company will need tracking application and devices to track the reserved parking spaces. The Entity-Relationship- diagram below has captured Estation’s information need for the company’s attempt to accomplish its project scope.

3. Model Changes and Normalization
Since Estation Inc. is a data warehouse enterprise, ac third
standard form of a normalized model is the most appropriate
option for this type of data model. Although the model does not
depict relational integrities are not encompassed into this
model, the ETL (extract, load, and transform) procedures will
be utilized in ascertaining that the database is connected within
the model (Allan et al., 2019). It is also important to note that
Estation has a substantial amount of data detailing from the
tracking systems, the parking, electric refilling data, and
employees. It is, therefore, best for the company to use the third
standard form of data as well as numerous source systems that
demand queries for complex businesses with voluminous data
such as Estation for appropriate consolidation of data. While I
realize various challenges related to the adoption and
integration of the 3NF model and particularly performance-
related challenges, the advantages of Estation using this model
as the company’s data storage system are indeed more
significant than the related performance malfunctions (Zhang et
al., 2017). Performance similar challenges can also be
optimized by the integration of appropriate designs, software,
and applications that I intend to create in pursuit of solving the
problems.

Strategic Planning ScenarioBackground
5. Stevens District Hospital is a 162-bed acute care hospital that is
qualified as a not for profit facility. The hospital was originally
a county-owned facility and its status was transferred to an
independent facility three years ago. The hospital receives no
external funding from government agencies for operations. The
hospital is accredited by The Joint Commission and received
reaccreditation during their triannual survey last year. The
hospital has an aggressive quality management program and a
low volume of medical malpractice claims. The hospital is
located in Jefferson City, which is a city of 50,000 with 80,000
in the regional market. The hospital provides a general range of
acute care services, including medical/surgical, rehab, and
emergency care. Current Performance AnalysisMission and
Vision
Our mission: To improve health by providing high-quality care,
a comprehensive range of services, and exceptional service.
Our vision: Stevens District Hospital and its affiliates will be
the health care provider of choice for physicians and patients.
Our five year vision is to create a large, multispecialty
physician practice system that would include at least six family
practice physicians and specialists in cardiology, oncology, and
women’s services. Currently, the hospital employs three family
practice physicians, one obstetrician, one medical oncologist,
and one non-invasive cardiologist. Previous Strategic Plan
Review
Goal
Accomplishments
Increase market share by recruiting three family practice
physicians.
The hospital was able to recruit only one family practice
physician to increase primary care market this past year. The
limited number of state medical school graduates makes local
recruitment difficult.
Improve quality HCAHPS scores in all six criteria to a baseline
of the 85th percentile.
6. The hospital improved HCAHPS scores in four of six criteria.
Lagging elements in HCAHPS scores are inpatient patient
satisfaction and primary care patient satisfaction.Market Forces

Increases in the percent of population with chronic disease and
contributing factors will change significantly over the coming
five years.
Payment
There will be continued focus on pay for performance and
increased wellness programs. The Affordable Care Act is
creating more covered lives; however, there are often high
deductibles.
The median household income for county residents is $59,548.
On average, households in the county earn more than the state
median household income of $44,446 and more than the national
average of $53,650. The addition of a new automotive
manufacturing plant to the local market this coming year is
projected to add 1,500 production line jobs and 300
administrative jobs by year end. Median income for the
production positions is estimated at $45,000 and will provide
health, vision, and dental insurance benefits.
Projected Payer Mix 5-years
Current Payer Mix
Percentage of Population by Insurance
8. As part of your review of this data, consider that a portion of
the population will become Medicare eligible, the addition of
manufacturing positions that include benefits will increase
commercial insurance coverage, and changes from the
Affordable Care Act will increase the number of patients in the
market with insurance coverage.
Employers
There is expected growth in large employers with the addition
of the automotive factory in the northwest sector of the county.
Physicians
The continued shortage of medical staff, especially in
orthopedics, oncology, and primary care, will require increased
recruitment efforts.
Competitors
Hanover County Hospital, which is the other hospital in the
county, has an updated facility that has drawn more market
share to its facility.

· Low debt and high cash on hand
· Drawing patients out of primary and specialty care at Stevens
· Ability to cash flow projects
Secondary Competitors
Retail Pharmacy Instant Clinic
· Low acuity office visits
· Pharmacy added instant clinic in north end of county 6 months
ago
· Loss of patients from primary care physicians’ practices
Technology
A competing hospital has added e-visits for physician practices,
which is causing a shift of patients to the competitor hospital's
physician practices.
Regulatory Changes
Health care reform through the Affordable Care Act has
increased the number of patients with some form of insurance
payment. These patients are now seeking care in greater
numbers from a primary care physician. Stevens District
Hospital struggles with accommodating patient scheduling
requests to establish care with a primary care
physician.PlanPlanning Components Explanation
