You should read this assignment specification carefully. It outlines what you need to do, what you need to submit, and how your submission will be assessed.
1 Assignment Overview
In this assignment, you will produce a conceptual design specification report for the attached case using several design techniques. Note that this is an individual, not a group, assignment.
There are three deliverables required:
1. an initial draft of a design specification report containing a narrative overview (Assignment 2A);
2. an initial draft of the complete design specification report (referred to as Assignment 2B); and
3. the final complete design specification report (referred to as Assignment 2C).
The purpose of the assignment is to simulate a proper systems design consulting project where you, as the designer, will need to work with the client to identify and elicit design requirements. In addition to the included case text below, if you require further information, you can ask further clarification from your tutor during the tutorial, consultation times and on the Assignment 2 discussion forum on Moodle.

4 Learning Objectives
Successful completion of this assignment will lead to knowledge of and skills in:
· techniques for functional analysis of a business problem;
· communicating an understanding of a design problem, as well as a design solution to a non-technical audience;
· the purpose of, and techniques used to develop, requirements specification for an information system;
· conceptual modelling of data and processes using the following techniques:
a. Entity Relationship Diagrams
b. Use Case Diagrams
c. Activity Diagram for a selected activity
d. System Sequence Diagram for the activity diagrams above
The assignment assesses your understanding of materials covered in Weeks 3-8 inclusively of the syllabus.
5 Deliverables
The assignment is divided into three deliverables. The first two, 2A and 2B, are intended as draft submissions which can be improved after feedback for inclusion in the subsequent assignment submission.
This is a draft skeleton design specification report. Your report should include all the sections that you anticipate submitting for the final submission in Part 2C. However, the only content required is the initial introductory narrative overview. In addition to the assignment coversheet, you should include, at a minimum:
1. a title page
2. an executive summary
3. a table of contents
4. an introduction containing your narrative overview
5. section headings for subsequent sections of the design specification report
The narrative overview should outline your understanding of the design problem based on the case material provided below. It should also give some idea of the proposed design solution, although this may become more detailed later in Parts 2B and 2C. The narrative overview should not just paraphrase the case study document. The narrative overview needs to establish your understanding of the scope and nature of the design problem to be solved, as well as any other information necessary for the client to understand the proposed design solution.
