Opportunity$/$Need$/$Problem Statement

The customer, who just inherited a small veterinary office $$Pet Vet$$ from his grandfather, has just realized

his grandfather $($the former vet$)$ has been in business for years but is still using paper files. The customer

$($the new veterinarian and owner$)$ hasn$$t yet put all their customers and their pets into a database. You

have been asked to build a database so that the Pet Vet staff can enter all the customers $($and their pets$)$

into tables. You will need to design the database and also a simple data entry page. For now, all the

website needs is a home page, a login page for the Pet Vet staff, and a data entry page. Future pages will

be out of scope at this time.

Project Objectives

Design the database$($s$)$ needed to support the Pet Vet customers and their pets. Then design a web site to

support this new business. Gather the requirements and create the site. High level objectives include the

site$$s ability to:

$-$ provide a home page with images of animals and the vet office$$s address;

$-$ create a log in page that will first let the Pet Vet staff create a logon and password, and then will allow

them to log on

$-$ design a data entry page that will capture the fields that will be needed for the customer table$($s$)$ and pet

table$($s$)$

Success Criteria

The project will be deemed a success if it successfully delivers a website as per the objectives and

subsequent requirements; comes in on time and to budget; and meets the customers$$ needs to their

satisfaction.
