...Final Project: Club IT – Part 3 XBIS/219 Final Project: Club IT - Part 3 Introduction From day one, the assignment given by Ruben and Lisa has been overwhelming, but fun. The excitement is getting to know the staff, their duties, and to watch them work a full house, as well as entertaining friends at Club IT. The overwhelming part is all the information and ideas that needs integrated and implemented into this club. As an intern hired to complete the needs of Club IT, the major focus is helping Ruben and Lisa expand, maintain, and continue to build its client list. Club IT is a nightclub of music and dance. Ruben Keys, a drummer and Lisa Tejada, a jazz violinist, both graduates with Business Administration degrees, decided to own and operate a nightclub ("Club It", 2000-2013). They have come to realize that running a business goes beyond having degrees and physical experience with nightclubs. Ruben and Lisa have discovered that there is a need for business information systems, more in the realm of full analysis of their information needs. This technology plan will give more insight and focus on what it takes for Club IT to get to the level of competitiveness in their market, the integration of customer relations management software and open-source software applications with their current systems, and a financial projection overview giving cost analysis, productive areas, and growth. Organization and Demographic Information Ruben Keys and Lisa Tejada...

...Club IT, Part 3 Student Name Axia College of University of Phoenix XBIS 219 Instructor Date Opened in 2005, Club IT has enjoyed success in a business, nightclub, where many fail. This is mostly because of the experience of the owners, Ruben Keys and Lisa Tejada. Both Keys and Tejada graduated from college with degrees in Business Administration and during college they both worked in numerous nightclubs as musicians while attending college. Entertainment at Club IT is all music related with live bands on the weekends and a live DJ on the weekdays. Club IT's customers are mostly tech knowledgeable young adults. Smart phones, tablets, and other forms of wireless communications are part of their everyday lives and they are just as likely to shop online as they are to shop at a brick and mortar business. (Appendix D, n.d.) Also, their customers are frequent visitors to social media sites like Facebook and Youtube. Even though the owners have experience their success is impressive because their information systems are either non existent or out of date. The primary goal of information systems is to process data into information and knowledge. Data is raw information that has not been organized or analyzed. Once data has been organized so it has meaning and value it becomes information. Data and knowledge that has been processed to convey understanding, experience, accumulated learning, and expertise as they apply to a business-related problem is considered knowledge...

...Final Project: Club IT, Part 3 Wayne G. Hatfield XBIS/219 Shenise L. Soto Club IT, owned by Ruben Keys and Lisa Tejada, is a fresh, hot night club located in the center of downtown Chicago. It is a hotspot for people to come and enjoy food, drinks, and local concerts. When Ruben and Lisa designed this night club, they began to think how they could attract more than just night club customers. By implementing a good ethical standard for new businesses, Ruben and Lisa made this business a Web base business. Customers can register online and place their orders ahead of time. Also they can pre-register for upcoming concerts, upcoming events, and receive a discount. The two owners had many goals for this business when it first opened. One of the many discussions included with the management team and that they were happy with the technology department. However, they would like to see it improve over the next several months. A major concern they had was that they needed to find a better way to run the technology of the building in a faster, more effective way before they could open another building. The vision Ruben has is one day running both buildings on the same technology system. This can be done, however it will take the right team of professionals to implement the programs. Club IT should also have not just one, but multiple computer programs to aid them in running the facility. Different questions could be asked. How does the staff take orders at the bar? What about...

...Club its Rad System Roxanne Cooper XBIS/219 12/16/2012 Victoria Miller Club its Rad System Club IT is fast becoming one of the hot spots for night life and music enthusiast. The club for the most part has been using an information system that seems to work for them. There is a need for improvement in certain areas to create a system that will more satisfy the needs of staff, customers and open the doors for e-commerce as Ruben suggests. Implementing Rapid application development system (RAD) the club would be combining joint application design (JAD), computer assisted software engineering tools (CASE), and prototyping to produce a high quality system quickly (Rainer 2009). The internet connection to the office is a problem that cannot be ignored. Although the dial up connection is less expensive than the high speed internet, in some areas dial up was 14% lower in 2003 (Whitacre, B. E., & Mills, B. F. (2010) and it is still lower priced today. The main problem with this is the speed at which information can be down loaded, and streaming music and video could be an all-day affair if possible at all. This will surely not sit well with club IT consumer base of Net generation. If the club cannot keep up the pace with its own customers, then it will not be able to compete in the market for very long. They could add a second line to save little money, but in the long run the loss of client base would cost considerably more. The high speed internet will not only support...

Club IT is a nightclub that has been open for a few months now and it seems to be very successful. To have a successful nightclub, you must make sure that you are offering you cliental what they want, so that they keep coming back and bring their friends and family with them. Owing a nightclub can be very expensive and risky, but sometimes you have to take chances like the owners of Club IT did. In this paper you will be reading about the technology plan that Club IT has. Organization Description and Demographic Information Both Ruben Keys and Lisa Tejada, in 2005, graduated from college and they both earned their degrees in business administration. While they were taking courses in college, Lisa and Ruben worked as musicians, Lisa on the jazz violin and Ruben on the drums, this allowed them to work at different nightclubs and also helped them earn money to get through school. While working in these different nightclubs they were able to learn and get firsthand experience on how to own and operate a nightclub. There is nothing wrong with getting the experience you need on someone else’s dime because this would be considered trial and error, when you are able to do this you really get to see if this is the kind of business that you want to get into, especially when you have to use your own money...

...against The Canberra Cycling Club under the Discrimination Act (ACT)? II SHORT ANSWER Under section 22 of the Discrimination Act (ACT), it could be circumstantially demonstrated that The Canberra Cycling Club committed an unlawful act of discrimination based on the political conviction of Mr Hock. However, there are limitations as to what action Mr Hock could pursue as detailed in the Discrimination Act (ACT) sections 71 and 72. In order for Mr Hock to be awarded damages, a judgement from the Tribunal would be required that the action was unlawful discrimination based on political conviction that is substantiated by the evidence presented. It would further have to be demonstrated that Mr Hock had been treated in a manner that was inconsistent with a manner in which other members of the club based on his political conviction. This is a point which cannot be adequately demonstrated on the balance of probabilities by the statement of facts provided. III STATEMENT OF RELEVANT FACTS The statement of relevant facts relating to Mr Hock’s claim of discrimination are: * Mr Hock has been an active member of the Canberra Cycling Club since 2012. * In February, Mr Hock filled out a form for renewal of his club membership, payed his $39 membership fee, and submitted the form on 1 March 2015. * On 5 March 2015, he received a message from the Club Board saying that they are refusing to renew his membership because he failed to meet the requirements of the Club by-laws which state that...

...REAL MADRID CASE STUDY Summary Real Madrid is one of the most storied sports franchises in the world. It is one of the few sports teams with international appeal to a very broad fan base. This case delves into how Real Madrid transitioned from a good soccer team with a winning history into the global sports juggernaut we know today. We first examined Real Madrid’s revenue streams and found that from their inception through the 1970s their business model was based almost entirely on their ticket sales. After the 1970s up until 2003 they had some media rights, a small merchandising department, and some other negligible streams of income. It was in 2003 that team President Florintino Perez decided to make Real Madrid into a special type of sports team that was akin to large global corporations like Walt Disney. After reviewing the facts we agree with the decision to shift the business model into its current position (as of 2003). After identifying and examining the lifetime values of different consumer groups which are listed below under the “Question 2” headline, we have found that each group has different desires in order to be completely satisfied. However, each group has a common denominator that will maximize utility across all segments and that is winning. A winning team sells more merchandise, can demand higher advertising revenues, and can attract the best players for less money which also leads to winning more often. We also quantified two types of consumers...

...Chestnut Ridge Country Club Filename: chestnut1=2011.sav The Chestnut Ridge Country Club has long maintained a distinguished reputation as one of the outstanding country clubs in Elma, Tennessee, area. The club’s golf facilities are said by some to be the finest in the state, and its dining and banquet facilities are highly regarded as well . This reputation is due in part to the commitment by the Board of Directors of Chestnut Ridge to offer the finest facilities of any club in the area. For example , several negative comments by club members regarding the dining facilities prompted the board to survey members to get their feelings and perceptions of the dining facilities and food offerings at the club .Based on the survey findings, the board of directors established a quality control committee to oversee the dining room and a new club manager was hired. Most recently ,the board became concerned about the number of people seeking membership to Chestnut Ridge. Although no records are kept on the number of membership applications received each year, the board sensed that this figure was declining. They also believed that membership applications at the three competing country clubs in the area – Alden, Chalet and Lancaster … were not experiencing similar declines. Because Chestnut Ridge had other facilities , such as tennis club and a pool ,that were comparable to the facilities at these other clubs , the board was perplexed as to why membership applications would...
