1. Introduction
The report that is being developed basically highlights of the case study for the organization of
International Charity Foundation and there is a need to develop an information system for the
organization, the discussion for which has been provided in this report (Fleming and Koppelmann
2016). I am the software consultant who has been asked to perform an analysis on the design of the
system that the organization is looking to implement.
The main objective of the project is the development of a Global Business Management
System.
The main aims of this report is to provide a detailed description of the analysis of the
project and provide a design which is to be used for the development of the system for the
organization.

2. Approach to Systems Development
For the development of the system the Waterfall model is to be adopted, since the
project which being considered in this report is basically a linear project and all the metrics
and the measurements are fixed hence the selection is of this model is very apt for the
development of the project (Marchewka 2014). The major phases which are to be involved
in the project development in this method are requirement gathering phase in which the
major requirements and the deficiencies in the current system for the organization are
identified. After the requirement gathering or the project analysis phase is over the project
planning is considered where the project schedule is designed and the budget for the
project is allocated. The project implementation phase involves the procedures of designing
if the software intended for the project, the database and the integration of the backend
procedures of the database. After the project has been implemented the testing phase is
done where the software is subjected to various type of testing methods and the software is
developed according feedbacks received from testing the system. After the risks involves in
the project are mitigated through the testing procedure the maintenance phase for the
project is covered and the schedule for the maintenance and resource allocation for the
maintenance of the project is done. After the maintenance phase is done with the further
development in the project takes place and the delivery of the project is done by uploading
the project on the domain of the organization and submitting the documents related to the
project.
