for an organization which earlier utilizes manual system for managing its
operations. It is found that due to the use of manual system, a lot of
challenges arises including redundancy of data, high access time, lack of
security as well as higher cost. In order to resolve the issue and for
making the organization competitive, the higher management of the
organization wants to implement an information system.
With the development of an information system, the organization can be
able to automate its operation which helps in executing the business
functions quite efficiently. In addition to this, the organization can increase
productivity and can be able to provide proper service to the customers
for making them satisfied.
The deliverables of project include:

the information system which is developed is working properly and will be
helpful in managing the operations of the organization efficiently.

Internet shutdown is one of the major issues that the area is facing
regularly.

system effectively on time.
The team members will attend all the team meeting in order to know the
status of the project.
Proper working environment will be present for the team members so that
they will not lose interest in the project.
Key Stakeholders The key stakeholders include tutor, student as well as the supervisor.
