...Unit 3: SDLC Phase Natasha Joseph Kaplan University Professor Michael Renick IT460: System Analysis and Design July 20, 2013 Unit 3: SDLC Phase In the past Jesse and the team considered using a JAD session to gather requirements but this time around the decision has been made to gather the requirements through an interview process. An interviewing process is a fact finding tool used to obtain information from another person, however to be successful at interviews you must possess the “skills needed to conduct, plan and evaluate interviews successfully” (Cashman. Pg155). The team assumes that the interview process will give them a great start. This paper will give Jessie an outline of what processes will be followed to ensure that the interviewing process is successful; a list of team members to be interviewed as well as their job function within the company will be provided along with interview questions for each person. The end product will be a summary of how I will publish the results. Question 1 The processes that I will follow to ensure that the interviewing process will be successful are as follows: 1.

...Unit 2 Assignment Kaplan University IT460 – System Analysis and Design Part 1: Intranet and Competition Jesse, I was able to get into the intranet and got a chance to explore some of the information you’ve made available. In the data section I found a summary of the company’s organization, the training calendar, a script for a typical JAD session, and some sample documents. I also looked through the company forms such as our Service Request, Report Analysis, and Documentation forms. Finally I looked through the resources library which seems to contain the tools and vendors that the company uses. I can see how this will be an invaluable tool for my work here. As you requested I found three other IT consulting firms that may be of interest. The first I looked at is ClearPointe, who primarily focuses on Microsoft System Center and NOC services. They provide managed services for systems such as Active Directory, Exchange, and Lync. The next company I found is Complete Computing. They provide managed Microsoft services like ClearePoint, but also have a strong training and support side. The last company I looked at is Cireson. They focus on System Center and automation consulting. All three companies focus heavily on Microsoft systems, with Complete Computing seeming to be the most well rounded in their service offerings. Thanks, Kyle Part 2: TIMS Scope The Training Information Management System (TIMS) will be an online system to facilitate online courses. It will need...
