CIS8004 Enterprise Planning and Implementation 1500 words excluding reference list This written assignment is to be electronically submitted through the EASE system in the CIS8004 Study Desk. Hardcopy or email submission will NOT be accepted.

You have been hired as an Information Systems consultant to examine State Health Centre, a fictitious multi-centre State Government Hospital, with about 20-specialist cardiologists. The centres are East, West, North, South and Central. The State Health Centre offers cardiology related services to affected people. The services include initial screening, ongoing maintenance and periodical treatment. The costs are recovered through subsidies provided by the Government.

The hospital is modern and comes with state-of-the-art technology infrastructure, including wireless systems. The registrar, who is responsible for all patient safety and service quality affairs, wants to revise the IT structure and is especially interested in integrating access to all services through mobile devices inside and beyond the hospital.

Your task is to develop a Business Systems Plan (with full justification as to how these are applicable for the organisation) so as to accommodate mobile access to various services provided by the hospital. Your task is to develop a planning document that details how a mobile access system can be implemented. You can use your imagination but MUST address the following:

1. Any potential customer of the State Health Centre must be able to securely access all information aspects pertaining to services offered using a variety of mobile devices.

2. The planning should involve provision for security, privacy and other user and organizational concerns.

3. Your planning should identity the various security configuration options available on the market.?

4. The planning should include consideration of various operating systems needed for this implementation, and these should be properly segmented and structured.

5. The planning should also indicate a provisional list of expense items. You don't have to provide a costing now, as this will be done in the second assignment.

You will prepare a planning document, in the form of a report, on how the above aspects can be accommodated. The planning document is a report covering all aspects stated above in a succinct manner. You have been given a word limit of 1200 words (excluding references). You must state your assumptions clearly and validate the stated assumptions through proper literature search. You may use any format for the report.

The Internet provides many examples of Executive Type reports, and you are encouraged to search for samples that suit your needs.
