Proposed System

Name of Software Offer: DashViz – A Business intelligence Dashboard with sophisticated tools for data exploration.

 

System development recommendation-

After an exhaustive investigation heavily focused on the business’ demands, the Information Systems team has provided its definite professional opinion. Developing the Business Intelligence Dashboard from the ground up, using a secure web-based approach appears to be the most suitable method.

This method of implementation provides the highest level of customization, which will be fitted to our business needs and allows for ease of access for both internal and external users to the application without the need to download any software.

 

 

Utilization Purposes-

The development of this dashboard will be heavily focused on the manipulation of data and visual, dynamic representation of the data types most used by Swift Trade Corp.

· Product data- Data displaying products features, important for supply chain, inventories, and pricing.

· Customer information data – This provides details about the customers buying from our website and their purchases.

· Sales data- Includes all the transactions for the current day and historic accountings. Used to optimize prices, predict demand, and develop a marketing plan.

 

Benefits of the Software-

· The Business intelligence dashboard will aid professionals to quickly gain insights into the most important aspects of their data

· Dashboards are vital for better decision making

· The Administration department, Managers and Stakeholders will benefit by reviewing the bigger picture of operations.

· The Marketing department will gain deeper insights into the market’s movement and take business decisions accordingly.

· managers to review the bigger picture of business operations

· Provides the ability to view real time financial results such as revenue and expenses.

 

Other Alternatives-

The team has weighed the alternatives, some of which include using existing out-of-the-box software which can be costly and lacks customizability, in some cases the risk of exposure of sensitive business data has been an important deciding factor. The alternative yielding the highest software efficiency and performance is the app-based approach, but there are known issues to this; Accessibility computers using different operating systems can be complex, employees report to use primarily use Windows as their operating System, but a significant number utilize MacOS and Linux which both have an Arm-based architecture compared to the x-64 x-86.

A backwards combability extension can be arranged, though it would drastically prolong the timeline for this project and compromises performance.

 

Feasibility Assessment

Ideas

A. cost estimates -> budget allocation and estimated expenditures will be included in a cost estimate table’

 

B. Intangible benefits

 

C. Technical

The only technical risk the company faces with the creation of the new dashboard is a security issue or bugs. There will be ongoing maintenance for the software which is to be included in the cost analysis.

 

D. Operational

All staff will be trained on the new dashboard to recognize their key performance indicators and management will coach everyone who is lacking in KPIs.

 

E. Inclusions/Exclusions

Marketing will gain insight into key performance indicators

Artificial intelligence(AI) may result in a significant operating cost reduction

Artificial intelligence(AI) may result in a significant operating cost reduction

Artificial intelligence is a very important subjectnowadays, but not everyone understands the scale of its value for the business. Thus, the existing AI technology can increase the productivity of the business by 50%. With the help of AI learning, Netflix managed to save USD 1 billion in 2017. When a company is using AI, 34% of customers spend more money on their products and services. Apart from this, 49% are thinking about buying something from the company more often in case it uses AI. These facts should be enough to assure you that artificial intelligence can be very beneficial. And here are a few ways of how you can use AI to reduce costs, improve efficiency and make your business more successful.

Artificial intelligence can help to reduce the mistakes and improve the overall efficiency of your company. For example, for the above-mentioned issue, you can use an AI personal assistant. Using your calendar, it will schedule calls and meetings, send you reminders, and so on. The probability of a human error will be reduced significantly, which means that you won’t waste the budget on fixing mistakes. Moreover, you will be able to spend the time saved on something more important.

3D printing help to reduce costs and improve competitiveness in a manufacturing industry

3D printing makes it possible to assemble ideas at a faster pace. In some instances, it could be possible for 3D concepts to be designed and printed on the same day but in terms of large-scale manufacturing, it is certainly faster than conventional methods. This can help companies to reduce manufacturing time from months to days while ensuring that they remain ahead of their competitors.

Inspite the challenges, 3D printing will change the way of manufacturing

However, in the main, these are not challenges that cannot be overcome with some careful forward thinking and planning. The manufacturing industry is filled with competition and that means that these challenges are nothing more than hurdles to overcome. This is because the industry has to not only think about the technical benefits that 3D printing for manufacturing can bring, but also the value it can add to a business.

It is crucial that businesses do not only identify applications and parts that they can create with 3D printing, but their manufacturing strategy as a whole and how 3D printing should fit into that. This is down to the fact that the technology can enhance innovation and value to overall operations. So, it is not about finding products that fit the technology but ensuring that the technology suits the product and the company working model

ANSWER B

Challenges, which companies have to deal in Artificial intelligence, such are:

Requires financial investment and can be quite costly. Robots and other products of artificial intelligence replacing humans can become the cause of unemployment. Robots and other products of artificial intelligence do not possess such human qualities, as creativity or emotional intelligence.

Challenges, which companies have to deal in 3d printing, such as:

  • Manufacturing costs
  • (Lack of) Expertise
  • Software development and capabilities
  • Recyclability
  • The cost of the equipment
  • The materials available for your industry
  • Post processing needs

 I want you to identify the paper that was the best one of the semester, and the paper that was the worst one of all these papers below.

I want you to identify the paper that was the best one of the semester, and the paper that was the worst one of all these papers below. You should name each of them, and provide just a couple of sentences describing why you choose them. Then use the scholarly search tools we listed early in the semester to find current papers (2020 onward) on the same two general topics. For example, if one of your choices is the paper that focused on Multics virtual memory, you probably wouldn’t find much that is current and specifically references Multics, but you could certainly find papers on some aspect of virtual memory. So again, find a current paper on each of those two topics. Then write the usual summary and reaction for each of them with the headings.
