The platform will require the development of a database to manage inventory and orders, as well as integration with various payment and delivery systems.
The stakeholders for this project include the development team, the project sponsor, and the end- users (i.e., the customers). The project sponsor has set a strict deadline for the launch of the platform, and the development team is working in an Agile environment using Scrum methodology.
To complete this assessment, you will need to apply the elements of an Information Systems Development Methodology to evaluate the business requirements, explain the components of Agile methodology, and document and communicate the information systems requirements to the stakeholders. You will need to use various IT modelling techniques to produce a requirements specification plan, including the creation of a use-case model and associated user stories.
