2. Sponsor: Ansync Ansync is an electronics manufacturer based in El Dorado Hills. Designs and manufactures custom electronics and hardware for clients in the industrial, medical, and defense sectors. Contact: Sam Miller, Owner and CEO Tom – Slide 2

3. Sponsor Need Ansync has a large, disorganized inventory. Thousands of different parts in various locations, all tracked by hand. Inventory counts are done manually, which is error prone. Orders are often filled in small batches of varying sizes, making it difficult to track changes. Tom – Slide 3

4. Ansync's Inventory Needs Tom – Slide 4

5. Ansync's Inventory Needs Ansync's current inventory management system is inaccurate and prone to failure Electronics manufacturing is a time-sensitive process that does not tolerate missing materials. Ansync wastes time and money replacing missing parts and faulty products. Tom – Slide 5

6. Meeting Ansync's Needs Providing the sponsor with a system that increases the efficiency of various tasks performed by Ansync employees and adapts to a changing environment. Mitch – Slide 6

7. Meeting Ansync's Needs Web based database system Interface is familiar and easily understood Convenient access from any computer This increases the likelihood the sponsor will actually make the transition to our system and ultimately benefit from it. Mitch – Slide 7

8. Meeting Ansync's Needs Benefit Consolidating data into one place Give faster price quotes Handle purchase orders - “...bane of my existence” - Sam Miller Mitch – Slide 8

9. Meeting Ansync's Needs Adapt to change Parts and designs have many attributes X, y and z coordinates Ohms Resistance etc... Occasionally new types of parts arrive and may require a new field to keep track of a new attribute specific to that part. Mitch – Slide 9

10. Major Features Parts Inventory System Track Purchase Orders of parts Receive shipments of parts into inventory Audit Inventory Design Processing Ian – Slide 10

21. Risk Management 3 Main Risks Under-estimation of work effort Incorrect identification of requirements Technology limits ability to implement feature James – Slide 21

22. Risk Management What are these risks, and how to handle these risks? Under-estimation of work effort Deadline approaching and it appears the project will not be completed Reanalyze requirements with sponsor to meet the deadline Prevention: constant mitigation throughout the project James – Slide 22

23. Risk Management Incorrect identification of requirements Prevention: SRS approval process will confirm that the project team and sponsor agree Occurrence would involve assessing the impact of adding to the scope of the project James – Slide 23

24. Risk Management Technology limits ability to implement feature Chosen implementation technologies don’t provide appropriate functionality Either features that can’t be implemented are removed, or new technologies are added This will be done through choosing technologies that have worked solving similar problems, catching possibly problematic features during requirements analysis James – Slide 24

25. Learning Plan Technologies to be used PHP, MySQL, JavaScript, jQuery At least one member of the team has experience in each of those areas Main focus of learning: working on a “skeleton” of database and interface Training sessions by person with most experience in an area James – Slide 25

26. Wrap Up Learned so far? Scope is important Time flies when busy Team collaboration is key Any questions? Comments? James – Slide 26
