2. Background
Course Co-ordinators (CCs) are academics with additional responsibilities of managing student
queries regarding a course. Their main responsibilities are advising new and current students
about the correct subjects to register in a given study period, deciding credit grants (also known
as recognition of prior learning) and deciding course completions. These responsibilities require
knowledge of the status of the subjects being completed or yet to be completed vis-a-vis the
stipulated subjects in the program map for the course. Hence this is a knowledge management
activity. An IT tool called CCSAS is required to help CCs in this knowledge management
activity
3. Aim and objectives

Australians from Queensland and creates an economic turnover of more than $3 to $4 billion
3

dollars yearly. By 2033 it is assumed that the Brisbane airport is to contribute the brilliant $8
billion dollars to Queensland's economy annually and contribute more than $13 billion dollars to
Australia’s economy. It has generated a steady and diversified revenue stream with the focus
being on profitability and efficient functioning of operations. Its goal is to remain the most
preferred choice of its customers. The managing body manages the airport with strong principles
supporting communities, education, and sustainability. Development of infrastructure, providing
secured airline services for better use of the runways has been the core reason for growth for the
company. They have extensive experience in the aviation industry. More than 470 businesses run

ratio of international passengers. Reports showed the number of passengers crossed 5.5 million
last year.
Millions of dollars are being invested in the development of runways and working on new
projects. Multi-million dollars have been invested for the redevelopment and up-gradation of
domestic and international lounges. Brisbane Airport Corporation (BAC) has come up with an
ambitious project that has attracted the attention of the world. Brisbane’s airport division is
developing a project that will bring all automobile companies under one roof along with other
perks and advantages. With a humongous budget of $300 Million dollars, this project is looking
into reviving the automobile market in Australia. The goal is to deliver a multi-purpose
automotive service. The initial stage of work has started since 2017 and is due to complete in
2019. The Construction of auto test-drive tracks and service infrastructure are underway. This
project is looking to create new jobs and new opportunities to make Queensland stronger than
ever. The world-class test track of 2.5 miles is designed by world-famous racer Mark Skaife to
give a unique driving experience to the customers which would certainly be a first in the world.

Business and communities work hand in hand. The involvement of stakeholders helps in project
4

development. Brisbane Airport Corporation (BAC) strives to be the best in the world and a
preferred choice for stakeholders, passengers, and communities. BAC maintains a strong
economic hold, a long-term funding group, and a strong financially supporting stakeholder. The
main key to investments is to understand the commitment to provide better facilities, better
services, and better experience at Brisbane airport. The partnerships with industries, government,
and private companies range from tourism to manufacturing companies. Marketing campaigns
run by the team have generated revenues that have provided our shareholders with a successful
share of profits. More than 80% of the stakeholders are principle institutional stakeholders. Big
companies have joined hands to get this ambitious project rolling. An estimated $85+ million
dollars investment has been reported for this auto mall project. As the Australian market is
changing, the focus will definitely turn to stakeholders, marketing, branding, and customer
experience. The stakeholders have found Brisbane airport as the perfect location for the
development of this project. Many investors have joined hands to be a part of this project. It has
signed a major deal with the Sci-Fleet group dealer of Toyota and Lexus. Sci-fleet motors Pvt ltd
have signed and entered into a detailed negotiation. It is one of the many dealers who have been
signed for attracting more dealers to this ambitious deal. Mike Skaife and iEDM have been roped
in for the designing of the test track for high-speed car testing. Skaife’s racing technology and
design have helped to enhance the idea and give this project the boost that it deserves. The track
will be used for various purposes like a test drive, events, vehicle training, workshop, driving
skills development, and much more. JLL’s Ben Koop and Jacob Swan are handling the
commercial negotiations of the Brisbane Auto Mall. AP Eagers is another noteworthy tenant of
this project. This major company is a renowned brand that represents 12 brands across the
country. With major brands joining hands, the chance of tying up with other automotive firms
has increased drastically for the development of this iconic project. The negotiation will bring a
wide range of brands, experience, and opportunities as it is one of the notable firms of the
country. BAC is looking for more firms to with up with for filling the remaining vacant sites.

Project finance decision
Australia and Queensland are ready for the history’s biggest project development in the name of
BNE Auto Mall Development. It is an assignment that aims to propose its best services at a
global platform for its renowned conferences, events and other associated experiences. This is a
big step towards revolutionizing the entire experience of user for vehicles. Building at the
International Terminal, this will feature iEDM and Mark Skafe designed high speed track for a
string of events that will include media driven events, launch events for manufacturers, vehicle
engineering and developments; test driving and many others. The project was decided to precede
under three stages; of which the first is marked to be completed by 2021. The budget that has
been sanctioned for the successful completion for this project is $300 million.
This is the amount that was finalized for the entire development process but it sought to be
insufficient. As the project hails for good quality, this seems inapt to buy the assignment the
desired outcome. With this being said, the following challenges could be faced by the project:
 Absence of a cohesive planning strategy.
 Little or no co-ordination among different teams and its respective members.
 A lack of co-ordination would result in poor use of the available resources.
 And consequently the outcome of this process would be poor in its quality resulting in
further problems.
So, if the project finance decision is weak because the budget to support the cause is poor then
the future of such a plan is unclear. It becomes really very difficult to accept an assignment of
weak quality into making the business strong. Such a project does not find its feasibility and lays
a foundation that is susceptible to fall apart under the present competitive environment.

Governance Decision
With having been decided to be built at Airport Central grounds, the BNE Auto Mall has seen an
inflow of some of the great stakeholders. This includes the name of the renowned AP Eagers and
Sci-Fleet apart from Government being playing a significant role in its construction and success
story. AP Eagers is a tenant that has secured a major part of this project for them. This
automotive giant will occupy 6.14ha in the division to run an array of shopping and
entertainment ventures. It commits to plan bars and restaurants, driving related activities,
conference facilities and hotels, and other automotive activities covering around 2.5km of
Skafe’s designed track. The AP Eagers embodies 12 main car brands in the local area of the
project with opening a space for other brands to join in. Sci-Fleet Motors was assigned another
major tenant of this project.
Besides these big shots of the automotive industry, the project includes the governance of the
government, without which the proposal would have not found grounds. Apart from a big say in
deciding on the budget for this proposal, the government is the sole responsible institution for
getting the documents’ work done in a decisive manner. It not only gets the budget approved but
also the documents, to undertake the task firmly. Now the entire process is understood under the
defined governance rule under “Prince2” in order for the plan to get executed in a meaningful
manner.
Here, the senior suppliers in this case( AP Eagers, Sci-Fleet Motors, and others), deliver their
designed automotive services and products into the market through authorized executive(those
involving responsible positions to execute the tasks of products deliverance to the audience).
And then it is the senior user(s)( the receiving part of the business) that avails these services
tailored according to their needs and requirements, contributing hugely in the sales graph. The
entire corporate management functions from the team members reporting to the team managers
and they (team managers) report to the project manager who becomes accountable for offering
the respective services on behalf of the supplier to complete the circuit of a successful business.
Tendering Decision
In order to understand the above process ”agile methodology” was incorporated; wherein the
project strategy was analyzed from time to time to handle any abrupt change in the plan. This
12

methodology helped the project to reach its goals by making the concept clear so that there was a
smooth communication in the chain of developers, product manager, project facilitator and the
stakeholders. The challenge that aroused in between was tackled with different tools and
technology and excellent co-ordination between different teams. The project came out with
vibrant colors with the help of proper planning, good communication, and judicious use of
available resources. And this led to a hassle free implementation of the project.
5.4 Functional and non-functional requirements
The functional and non-functional requirements of the project are required to identify vigilantly
to make sure firm data security systems can be developed. It helps in formulating priorities list of
project that drives the ongoing status of the project into the success of the project. Some
functional and non-functional requirements of the project have been highlighted below:
Functional requirements
● Administrative functions
● Audit Tracking
● Authentication
● Regulatory requirement
Non-functional requirements
● Maintenance
● Availability
● Reliability
● Security
6. Conclusion
The project came out with vibrant colors with the help of proper planning, good communication,
and judicious use of available resources. And this led to a hassle free implementation of the
