2DEVELOPMENT OF ONLINE FOOD ORDERING WEBSITE
Introduction
This website development project is intended to develop and design a website that
will be beneficial for restaurants to get increased revenue from the business by providing
ordered food to the customers. On the other had the customers will be able to get their
preferred food at anytime and anywhere during the availability of the foods by the restaurants
(Vaughn et al. 2014). Use of the website can be an important tool for the restaurants in order
to improve the management aspects of day to day operations.
Use of this website will help them in coordinating every order transaction in this
computerised way rather than using traditional method to track the orders and its related
transactions. In addition to that, it will provide better efficiency for different restaurants by
reducing time consumption in traditional tracking of the orders as well as minimizing the
human errors in the process (while providing good quality food and services to their
customers). This report contributes to the different aspects of the development of the
website, selected methodology to develop the site, implementation of the different module of
the site. The link of the functional site is given by, http://foodplaza.cloudaccess.host.
Background of the related work
In order to develop the site at first we analysed the feasibility of the site in the present
business environment from the both aspects (customer and restaurants). After analysing the
situation, we found that,
 In order to book an order to get food from the restaurants, clients need to visit
restaurants to know about the available items in the menu after which they
places their orders (Borders et al. 2014). In the next stage the pay for their

3DEVELOPMENT OF ONLINE FOOD ORDERING WEBSITE
ordered food at the counters. In this strategy time and manual work is
required.
 on the other hand, while ordering over the phone, client does not have the
digital or physical copy of the invoices. This leads to the confusion or
affirmation about the fact that the order is placed accurately.
 Every restaurant needs certain number of employees in order to take the orders
from the customers over the phone or at the counter, to offer a better service
experience to the customers (Borders et al. 2014). In the present market, as
day by day competition is getting harder, thus the organization need to reduce
the expenses on human resources wherever possible and required.
Scope of the project and modules of the system
Ordering Module
This module will be helpful for the customer’s stage that let them help to book food
order it from the restaurants. The site can be accessed from tablet or any mobile phone by the
clients for in order to check the available foods and restaurants through this module. Client
can likewise put in a request through the cell phones after they make their choices about the
foods and restaurants and furthermore some additional comments that client wish to ask.
Reporting Module
The admin of the website will be able to performance of the restaurants by generating
reports. The report can create as per the day and time selected by users.
Menu Management Module

4DEVELOPMENT OF ONLINE FOOD ORDERING WEBSITE
In this module, client can refresh the most recent and refreshed food menu data to the
website, for example, name, cost, and availability etc. After the data change is completed by
the admin, the website will present the most recent menu data.
Billing Module
This module will accumulate the order data and print the charging articulation for
client to make and keep for their reference.
Functional and non-functional requirements for the modules of
the site
Users of the online ordering site will communicate with the application through a
simple to utilize nav bar menu.
• "Home" menu: This feature allows the users to see the todays special item offered
with amusing pictures and also the controls to put down an order for the food items and
promotional offers. • "Categories" option: another component in the nav bar menu, enables
the customers to see all foods available according to classification. Thing would then be able
to be added to their user carts utilizing a solitary add to cart button.
• "My Cart” option: This Allows clients to see points of interest of the things set in
their carts. Points of interest incorporate Name of the food item, quantity of the ordered item,
image, Description, Unit Price, and last Total of the placed order. It additionally permits
'Refresh' and 'Erase' a product controls using one click. Client can then use the 'Continue to
checkout' control to further continue with the experience.
- Once, Check Out option is clicked, client will be incited for the Sign In/Sign Up
process if not signed in else client will be provided with a straightforward "Payment

5DEVELOPMENT OF ONLINE FOOD ORDERING WEBSITE
Information" page of the site. From proper dropdown boxes and showed boxes, the client will
be asked to provide every minute details. A simple save button can spare the data used by the
clients on the page.
- In the next stage the user will then be forwarded to make payment page, which will
show Payment Data alongside Order subtle elements to audit. Client can then use the 'Look
at' control to place an order.
- Once the order is placed, client will be given suitable Order affirmation failure
message.
"Sign up or login ": This menu item will show the client orders, sign in and Sign Out
alternatives.
Selected methodology for developing the site
For the development of the website we selected the prototyping methodology. The
methodology for prototyping that has been taken here is SDM or Systems development
methodology which is used to assess the previous estimate by building, trying and revising
the previous framework of the client with adequate feedbacks. For building up the framework
completely, the methodology is repeated unless and until a proper framework with acceptable
functionalities re not created. The model works even when certain requirements of the model
are not known in time. The process works in an iterative way and can be termed as an
experimentation process.
Stages in this prototyping model
For comprehending and assembling the framework prerequisites and business needs
of the clients (which they are not clear about), the prototyping model initiates with JAD or
Joint Application Session. Moreover, the action on the day by day work of the individual

6DEVELOPMENT OF ONLINE FOOD ORDERING WEBSITE
comes with a particular end goal which shows the overview of the business procedure that
will be performed every day.
Analysis, Design and Implementation of model
From the JAD perception and session, the client prerequisites are accumulated to
perform the required outline, examination and execution of every particular modular base
which are mentioned in the necessities of the client.
Design Prototype
The main motive of this stage is to collect each module for completing a proper
framework model. For the purpose of assessing and testing, the clients will be acquainted
with the models. For the time being, the client will be provided with only hand-off
prerequisites, clear up necessities and input (Borders et al. 2014). The models will be
constantly adjusted according to the requirements of the clients through the process of testing
and input until and unless the model becomes close to flawless (from stage 2 to stage 3).
Design
The model will be discarded when the problems and issues have been properly
tended. This implies that the framework will be configured, the procedure will be checked
and the input system of the model will be analysed and determined.
Implementation
The implementation stage of the last stage of the entire process which builds up all the
modules from the implementation stage to the final framework and makes it ready to be
delivered to the client.
System Planning

7DEVELOPMENT OF ONLINE FOOD ORDERING WEBSITE
In the previous sections, the chosen strategy is determined to take care of the end
goals and the framework planning stage is differentiated for advancement. For understanding
the framework necessity in depth, a few investigations are still needed to be carried out.
Moreover, the constraints of the required necessities, the proposed shortcomings and the
quality can be deciphered with the help of strategies related to swot examination (Vaughn et
al. 2014). Next, the processes need to be listed as what needs to be done as per the life cycle.
The timetable visually shows a comprehensive bar with rule occasions and dates that focuses
on occasions that will have occurred.
Implantation and testing of the developed site
Implementation of the modules and complete site
Amid the implementation stage, we faced few difficulties in light of the fact that the
users of the developed site include the users who may not have any technical knowledge and
in order to test the developed site in different circumstances. The conceivable difficulties may
confront are as following:
End users without foundation: The users are required to have fundamental
information of how to work computer system or a website or smart phones in order to achieve
the specific end goal to utilize the website (Borders et al 2014). This will be trouble to offer
training to the client as the fundamental learning data can be acquired from web effectively.
The screen size of various devices to access the site: This would be one of the issue
that will experience while actualizing the framework. Since client can download the versatile
application from the official site and utilize it as a customer gadget to put arrange. Along
these lines, if the client gadget screens estimate is too little or too enormous (Vaughn et al.
2015). The substance and interface of the application may not consistence.

Testing
Prior to the launch of the site the testing of the site is necessary. Through the testing f
the site, we can ensure the developed site meets all the business prerequisites. Likewise, we
determined conditions for the testing stage in order to maintain the quality of the developed
site and tested in 4 sorts of testing steps listed underneath:
 Functionality testing
 Stress Testing
 User Acceptance Testing
 Security Testing

Conclusion
In this manner, finish of the proposed framework depends on client's need and is
client focused. The framework is created in considering all issues identified with all client
which are incorporated into this framework. Extensive variety of individuals can utilize this
in the event that they know the most effective method to connect with the website to order
food from the restaurants. In light of the consequence of this examination, it can be finished
up: It helps client in making request effortlessly; It gives data required in making request to
client. The Food site application made for eatery that can help clients in accepting requests
