Respond to each problem listed below with a YES or a NO$,$ depending on whether this proposed alternative will solve the problem. The questions are:$$

$$

Is the proposed technology or solution PRACTICAL to solve this problem?

$$

Do$$we$$currently have the necessary technology to implement the proposed solution?$$

Do we have the SKILLED PEOPLE to implement the technology proposed by this solution?$$

$$

Total number$$of$$YES responses.$$

Economic Feasibility $$ What is the benefit of the solution, and how quickly do we get a return on investment?

Cost$-$benefit analysis

For each solution, state the problem, the estimated cost, and the time it will take to recover the costs.

Example:

Current Process Costs: Giving road tests by paper:

$35$ Examiners giving five tests a day $=175$ paper tests.

It takes $5$ minutes for seven supervisors to review each test $=875$ minutes $=14\mathrm{.}5$ hours X $$25=$ $$362\mathrm{.}50$ per day. $230$ working days per year $=$ $$83,375$

It also takes $2$ minutes per test to scan the paper test $=350$ minutes $=5\mathrm{.}8$ hours X $$20=$ $$116$ per day. $230$ working days per year $=$ $ $26,680$

Total spent currently $=$ $$110,055$

Proposed Solution:

Example:

No scanning necessary saves $350$ minutes per day.

Reviewing tests will be cut in half at $2\mathrm{.}5$ minutes $=175$ tests X $2\mathrm{.}5=437\mathrm{.}5$ minutes $=7\mathrm{.}3$ hours X $$25=182\mathrm{.}5$ per day. $230$ working days per year $=$ $$41,975$

Savings per year $=$ $$110,055$ $$41,975=$ $$68,080$

Cost of new system $=$ $$300,000$

$$300,000/$$$68,080=$ Return on investment $4\mathrm{.}5$ years.

Project Idea:

Department or Office: Information Technology

Company Name: Central City Library

$$

Stakeholders: library Management, staff, patrons, and suppliers

Business Product$/$Service: $$Library services, including book lending, cataloging, digital media access, etc.

Functional System Name:$$ Library Management System $($LMS$)$

$$

Type of Request:$\_\_\_$ New System $-$ no current computer support

$\_$X$\_\_$ Redesign current computer$-$based system

The System Development Life Cycle

Identify what life cycle you will use and why.

I will use the Agile model for this project because of its flexibility, adaptability, and emphasis on customer collaboration. This approach will allow for ongoing feedback and iterative development, ensuring$$the new system aligns with the library's evolving needs.

The project can work if every member can make a few changes to make the books worth buying or renting from the library. As with the daily world of today, people are constantly using phones, so with a slight change of doing orders inside the library, we can create an app or website that allows us to exchange books with users as we can send them items and retrieve them with a moment's notice, as with a simple click of a switch. We can get orders without talking to a member, as we can put books on hold for people or even buy more books if we see that it's becoming a hassle with the orders. But with that in mind, it gives everyone more time to do their task as we can send items out the door unless someone comes in and looks at books inside the library. Ultimately, having a team to help you can be a massive step in making it a successful business.

$($That$\text{'}$s it$)$
