Objective
Provide an opportunity for students
to apply a technology solution to a business problem in a specific company or
organization that adds value to the organization.
The Course Project’s focus is on the
use of technology to solve specific business problems. Although the list of
technologies that you can choose for your Course Project is vast, the following
are some current technical topic suggestions appropriate for specific business
sectors that you could consider in solving your business problem.
Some Ideas to Identify a Business
Problem
- Lack of competitiveness or profitability
- Inefficient processes
- Slow product development
- Obsolete IT organization and technologies
- Poor corporate communications
- Ongoing personnel issues
Some Benefits it Will Provide the
Organization
- Financial—profitability, revenue, product costs
- Improved competitiveness
- Better marketing positioning
- Efficiency in key processes, for example, sales,
manufacturing, and development
- Improved product or service quality
- Improved product development
- Better and more accurate support turnaround
- Preparation for the future—how is the organization
positioning itself for future growth
Some Ideas on How the Project Could
Tie Together
- As an example, you could write your paper on some
aspect of e-commerce. You might tie it into targeted advertising. You
could then tie the back-end databases that are necessary to support
e-commerce. For example, how databases contain information that allows
vendors to target their audience and what those databases are.
- Another example might be the functionality of
enterprise systems. You might choose a specific enterprise system like
ERP, CRM, or SCM and detail how the functionality is delivered. This could
be how a business person would access this type of information.
- The business problem is high cost of IT and product
development, and the benefits are profitability, faster development time,
or increased sales. The solution might be Cloud computing describing the
Cloud computing approach taken; for example, SaaS or Cloud virtualization.
