I agree with Scott. Lets make the corrections, and then post the final version for a last look. It's due Saturday, so that gives us Friday for a last minute quality check, and then off it goes.

Grant



I wrote to our professor regarding the bibliography and he said, and I quote:

You are correct, NO BIBS...... Cheers

Ron Curry

NOW CAN WE POST THIS PROJECT????

Scott

I think it's ready. Finalize it and let's move on. Great work, everyone.

Scott

Hi Eveyone, I think that the slide show looks great Grant. The only thing that's missing is the Solution Selected after alternatives and before goals of the new system. I'm still unclear why we have added a bibliography to the slide show and need to add it to the paper. I have deleted the date off the bottom of the paper and added the solution selected to the slide show. I think that we have all made the changes that we wanted too and the paper and slide show look great. As soon as we decide on the bibliography/reference page I can submit the paper. Great job everyone!!! Heather

Like Heather, I also want to know why there's a date on the bottom of each page. Also, where in the paper are we citing anything? We're not quoting anything from literature that would require a citation. Maybe I'm just not getting that part. Could someone please explain so we can get this project turned in? BTW, great slide presentation, Grant. Scott

Hello, The powerpoint document is very professional, Grant. I just added the works cited page. Here it is. Anh Linh

Heather, I think it can be deleted. Anh Linh

Hi Everyone, I have never seen the date at the bottom of every page before. Why does the date go there? Heather

12.6.2010 Slideshow is attached. Let me know if you have any comments. Grant

12.6.2010

I made some changes to my portion of the Group Project: adjusted some numbers, and rearranged the spacing. I will begin working on the slideshow. It basically be a rehash of the paper on slides. Hope to have it posted either tonight or tomorrow. We all have finals, so this should give us time to look things over before the Project due date. Personally, I'd like to get this complete, so as to focus on the exam. Grant

Good Morning, Anh the 4th sentence was typo and it should have said "of". I changed it. I also highlighted the changes that you made so that everyone else can see them. for some reason the changes didn't track when you made the changes. I hope everyone else can take some time this morning to review the paper so that we can get it finished an done. I don't know about you guys but I have a lot of studying to do before my 2 finals on Thursday. Have a great day. Heather

Hi, I just added a little more in the implementation (additional information pertaining to this week chapter). Also I don't understand the fourth sentence in the conclusion where the statement "F the choices considered, the best solution.." Here is my edit version. I think we need to clarify on that sentence and add a citation page. Otherwise, it is good to go. 

 Anh Linh

Everyone,

Yes, even though we (Heather and I) spent a few hours this morning working on it, it may need those extra sets of eyes to look for errors. There were some changes that may seem drastic, but there was the decision to try and make the report flow. In other words, even though some ideas were submitted and they look wonderful, they may not have been the right choice for this report. Please take a look.

Scott

Hi Everyone, Here's the final draft. Please review and let me know if you want changes to be made. Heather

Very impressive, Grant. Some of your info (payback, return on equity) is right out of my current course's textbook (Finance). I like it as well as your Powerpoint design. Heather is coming to my house tomorrow to iron out the project so hopefully it'll be good to go in the next day or two.

Scott

Excellent job, Grant. Don't forget we also need works cited information. I'm working on my too. AL

Hello All,

Apologizes for being late. My contributions have been added to the written project. Have also picked out a Powerpoint design. Check it out and see if you like it.

While reviewing the calculations, I realized I made a few errors. Will correct for the final version.

Once the paper components are assembled, I will create a slideshow.

Grant





Here is the implemenation. Please review and as we share the grade, your input will be helpful.

Thank you & it's very nice cover page, Scott. How is everyone doing? It's hard to believe that we are going to week 7. Hope everything goes smoothly with you all.

Happy "Post Thanksgiving" everyone. I'm posting an idea of a cover page, table of contents and page layout for our paper. Please take a look and give me some suggestions for improvement. Also, is this the title we want for our paper? Again, let me know. Scott

Hello all, Here is the goal of our new system. Please review and make changes as you wish and initial after you read.

11/21: Heather, I like the introduction so now I get a feel of what the issue is about. I can see how we can put together a pretty good report just based on the few issues you have listed here. Scott

Anh, You are correct. I have read your changes and made a few myself. Thanks for the input. It always helps to have another set of eyes read the paper. Heaher

I want to clarify our business strategy. We are developing a system that helps "increase revenue," "improve SCM," and "CRM." Am I correct?

I also makes a little suggestion on the paper



I respect your opinion. Thanks

It doesn't matter to me what we call the MIS system. I am more than happy to change it. I just wanted to get something down on paper so we could get started. Heather

Grant and Heather, Good job.

Hello group members, I think Kitchen MIS sounds so general; "Hospital Food service MIS" is more specific. what is your opinion?

Looks great Grant. I am going to do a basic introduction of the company and statement of the problem. I just want the basics out there so everyone can see what we are working with. I will submit the document to this site. I included a rough draft of the cover page and the table of contents that can be adjusted later. I will have my portions posted by this evening or tomorrow morning. Heather

Here is it: Please email me with any questions or thoughts. We will all be graded on this together so we need to keep the lines of communication open. Good luck everyone. Heather

Hello All!

I have added my contact info below with everyone else's. I also posted a message on the MGMT 393 discussion board regarding the assignment to turn in for Week 5.

Grant

Hi everyone, I thought that this may be a good way to get our project started. I thought that we could all enter our information here. I've never used a wiki before so we'll see how it goes. I'm going to try to get this to everyone so here goes nothing. :-) Heather

Hello,

I'm hoping we're getting some clear and concise instructions regarding this project because as of now, I'm mostly clueless as to what's going on. Thanks, Heather, for starting this up and being our group leader. I'm sure you'll do fine.

Scott

Thanks for the vote of confidence Scott. Heather

I came back from a trip last week and dealt with jet lag. I'm now recoverred and ready to start our project.

How is the project assignment for this week going?

Could we start with the planning phase: system definition, project scope, and resources. Let create a table with the following collums: Task # Task name Task manager Start date End date.
