Context:

In your reading and activities for this subject, you have discovered the concept of requirement engineering and the entire procedures that involved in the process derived from the real-world cases. You also explored the importance of requirement engineering and the relevant case studies have guided you to understand it further. By undertaking this assessment, you will be able to contextualise and explain the high-level concepts of requirement engineering and explain the role of requirement engineering in achieving organizational success.

Task Instructions:

You, as a group, should first read and understand the following case before proceeding to answer the questions in Assessment Tasks section. Note that every piece of information provided in the following case serves a purpose.

The case

ABC Pty Ltd is a start-up tech company (the ‘Company’) based in Sydney Australia. They are currently seeking to develop a mobile app or a web application (collectively called an ‘app’), which provide on- demand trades & handyman services to their customers. The objective of the app is to connect tradesmen and customers. ABC envisioned that this app will provide a strong revenue stream to the company and other business opportunities from a wide handyman network.

The founder of the Company has envisaged an app that enable customers to find trustworthy tradesmen to get the job done; it is also a platform for tradespersons to find jobs and earn an extra income stream. Typical jobs posted on the platform should include home cleaning, heating and cooling system services, gardening, airport pick up & delivery, IKEA furniture assembly, garbage removal,

plumbing, and other tradesmen & handyman jobs. The founder also provided the following very high- level and rough ideas for the app:

For customers, they can post job(s) on the app, browse through tradespersons’ profile, and contact them through the in-app instant messenger.

For tradespersons, they can put up a profile on the app, browse through jobs available, and contact customers through the in-app instance messenger.

Once the job is completed, payment can be made securely through the app. The customer will also have the opportunity to rate and review the tradesperson.

ABC wants to push this app to the market in the next six months and have secured an investment for this app.

ABC has engaged you (i.e. a group of you) as the requirements analyst in this project.

General Assessment Requirement

Incomprehensible submissions. Assessments provide the opportunity for students to demonstrate their knowledge and skills to achieve the required standard. To do this, assessment responses need to be both clear and easy to understand. If not, the University cannot determine that students have demonstrated their knowledge and skills. Assessments will, therefore, be marked accordingly including the potential for 0 (zero) marks where relevant.

Case study. Assessment response must focus on the case study scenario given in the Task Instructions. Any assessment items that do not address the case study scenario may be awarded 0 (zero) marks.

Track changes. If you use Track Changes when writing your assessment, you must ensure that the submitted document is the final and correct version of the document. That is, if your submitted report contains Track Changes or Comments or any other editing marks it may be awarded 0 (zero) marks. It is your responsibility to submit the final and correct version of your report.

Check with marking criteria. Before submitting your assessment, you should check it against the assessment criteria and the marking rubric included in this specification to ensure that you have satisfactorily addressed all the criteria that will be used to mark your submission.

Academic language. All submissions should be thoroughly proof-read for spelling, typographical or grammatical errors before being submitted. Do not reply on the ‘spell-check’ function in your word processing program. If, for example, ‘affect’ is substituted for ‘effect’, your program may not detect the error.

Group Assessment Requirement

Group assessment. This assessment is a group assignment for all students. Each group consists of 2 or

3 students. To ensure your success in this group assignment, please read and follow these requirements regarding group formation, registration and administration.

Group Formation

Group size. Each group consists of 2 or 3 students. Groups of more than 3 students must be split into two or more groups. Given the amount of work you need to undertake in this assignment, it is highly suggested that you form a group of 3 students. You may be added by the Learning Facilitator to groups that consists of less than 3 students after Module 2.1.

Inter-class groups. You must only form groups within the Class you are enrolled in. No inter-class groups are allowed.

Remain in the same group. You must remain in the same group for this assessment.

Freedom to form groups before the deadline. You have the freedom to choose your group members before the registration deadline. After the registration deadline, however, those who are not in a group will be allocated to a group by the Learning Facilitator.

Group Registration

Deadline. The deadline for group registration is 11:45pm AEST Friday Module 2.1.

Penalty for not registering before the deadline. If you are not registered before the deadline you will receive no penalty on your marks; you will, however, lose the freedom to form a group on your own. The Learning Facilitator will assign you into a group.

Means of registration. To register your group, you must send your Learning Facilitator an email with “[MIS604] Group Registration” in the subject line. In the body of that email, you must list out the name and your student ID for each member in their group. The registration email must arrive at your Learning Facilitator’s inbox before the registration deadline to be a valid registration.

Group Administration

Conflicts. If there is anything that you think you will need to involve your Learning Facilitator, please do not hesitate to do so.

Burden to prove. If you make any allegation against any other group members, you bear the evidential onus to prove your allegation and claims.

Group marks. Everyone in the same group will receive the same mark unless:

  • there is an issue brought to the attention of the Learning Facilitator; and
  • the Learning Facilitator finds it is fundamentally unfair to give every group member the same

You may be removed from a group. In some circumstances, you may be removed from you group due to your significant and persistent lack of contribution. Once it happens, those being removed from a group will need to undertake all assessment individually from the time they are removed. The marking standard and criteria will remain the same.

Referencing

It is essential that you use appropriate APA style for citing and referencing research. Please see more information on referencing here http://library.laureate.net.au/research_skills/referencing

Submission Instructions:

Means of submission. ALL students must submit ONE MSWord document (.doc or .docx) and ONE MSPowerPoint document (.ppt or .pptx) via the Assessment link in the main navigation menu in MIS604: Requirements Engineering. Physical copies/Email submissions are not accepted.

No Zipped files. Students must NOT zip the MSWord document and MSPowerPoint and submit it as one single zip/compressed file.

Complete and correct submission. Assessment, once submitted, are FINAL and therefore cannot be modified. You bear all the onus to ensure that your submissions are final, correct (correct files in correct format) and complete before submitting to Blackboard.

You are expected to begin this assessment when you begin the trimester, especially as you relate the learning activities (formative assessment) in the modules to this and the other (summative) assessments. Be sure to keep several drafts of your work as well as your notes and any sources you used to draw on in preparing your report.

Extensions will be considered only in extenuating circumstances where the student has applied before the due date. At that point, students are required to provide the latest draft, in case the extension is not granted and to demonstrate they have earnestly done everything to avoid lateness.
