Mini Project:
Online Office-Supplies Case Study
Project Brief: Problem Statement
You currently work for DIGITAL ECHOES who has been approached by REGUS to build an
online ordering system called LYRECO.
The company currently has no standard way for departments to order office supplies. Each
department separately implements its own ordering process.
As a result, it is next to impossible to track company-wide spending on supplies, which
impacts the ability to forecast budgeting and identify abuses.
Another problem with the current system is that it does not allow for a single contact person
who could negotiate better deals with various vendors.
As a result, you have been asked to help develop a company-wide office-supply ordering system (OOS)
application.
To model the new system you will manage the completion the following tasks:
