Project Proposal

Project Proposal

What: The term project is meant to help sharpen the application of the course content to your specific context of interest,

and to give you the hands-on skills of going through documenting the Enterprise Architecture effort. The term project will

involve choosing an organizational context, analyzing one or more of its business processes, diagnosing how it could be

transformed into an IT-enabled and integrated process and providing recommendations for doing that.
————————————————————
You are encouraged to use your own company/organization or the one you know as the target

business for this project (upon the approval of the instructor).
——————————————————————————————

Project Proposal: Each group member must propose at least ONE potential organization and its process (real or fictitious) for the project before the group discussion and finally rank order all the ideas in the group. Your proposal write up should indicate the authorship of each potential business/process and the final group decision.

The proposal is a short executive memo explaining what you are going to investigate, how you intend to do it, and why it is important to you. This is not meant to be “set in concrete,” but rather to push you to decide early. Your proposal should be around 2 pages double spaced. I will provide feedback to you quickly. In the memo you must include the following:

 Authorship of the proposal: Group ID and all names of the contributing members

 The ideas contributed by each group members. The order of the ideas should reflect the preference in the

group (from the most preferred to the least preferred). EACH proposal idea must include the following:

o The author of the idea

o Name of the potential organization and the specific process(es) to be focused on (indicate whether it is a real business or a fictitious one)

o The strategic aspect that you will focus on (e.g. reducing time for the whole cycle of the process, increase revenue, etc)

o any personal connection in the organization

o how the data can be collected (e.g. interview of the stakeholders, or fictitious process based on
readings and web search)

o The author’s motivation, interest, and expectation of the project

 Group’s rationale on the ranking

 Group’s motivation, interest, and expectation of the project

 Any concerns or difficulties that you are concerned about
