Assignment: Information Technology Architecture
The final step in developing the Consultant's Analysis Report on Enterprise Systems is to provide an analysis of the costs and benefits of the system and offer your final conclusions and recommendations to the client. Sufficient information should be available in the report sections prepared in previous weeks to allow final review of the required resources and assign costs to the project. The benefits to the client can then be compared to the costs and your conclusions given. You will also further refine the plan to produce the final draft version for the project. Updates may be based on peer and instructor feedback.
The following are the project deliverables:
• Update the Consultant's Analysis Report on Enterprise Systems title page with a new date and project name.
• Update the previously completed sections based on your instructor's feedback.
• Include the following new content:
o Final Analysis
- Summarize the resource requirements for the system required for implementation. These resources should include development costs if the system is internally developed or acquisition costs if it is an externally developed system.
- Assign costs to all resources.
- Identify short- and long-term benefits to the organization in financial terms.
- Compare and contrast the costs and benefits.
- Provide conclusions and recommendations to the client.
• Consultant's Analysis Report on Enterprise Systems final draft:
o Review the entire document for any changes and improvements that you would like to make.
o Ensure this final version of the document is sufficiently detailed to meet the requirements of the assignment.
o Any previous instructor feedback should be addressed with the appropriate changes.
• Be sure to update your table of contents before submission.
