After last week’s presentation, the board of directors wants to continue consideration of a new webstore for Pine Valley Furniture. The board has asked you to assist them in selecting and initiating which project to do. They are considering a webstore for one of their three target markets:

• Corporate furniture
• Home office furniture
• Student furniture

The board wants you to help them determine which project to select and get started on the planning process.

Prepare a 10- to 16-slide presentation or write a 3- to 4-page executive summary to help the board choose.

Explain four methods for identifying and selecting IS projects. The four methods include key member of top management, a steering committee, user departments or functional areas, and the development group or senior IS manager. Compare the characteristics of each and identify the strengths and weaknesses of each method.

Identify valuation criteria when classifying and ranking the three projects, and then rank them. The discussion should include value chain analysis, strategic alignment, potential benefits, resource availability, project size/duration, and technical difficulty/risk.

Summarize the project initiation and planning process so the board knows the next steps. The discussion should include the six activities involved in determining the size, scope, and complexity of a project.  

Cite any references according to APA guidelines. For maximum points, include 3 academically acceptable references.

  Discuss how the marketing mix will vary in relationship to the offering of service and of a product. 

1. DISCUSSION: Using 300-350 words, write a brief discussion, in your own words of how the article relates to the selected chapter Key Term.

This is the most important part of the assignment. 

2. REFERENCES: All references must be listed at the bottom of the submission–in APA format. (continued) Be sure to use the headers in your submission to ensure that all aspects of the assignment are completed as required. Any form of plagiarism, including cutting and pasting, will result in zero points for the entire assignment.

The second data set includes data about the customers of a telecom company, the services they subscribed to, and whether they left the company’s services. Multiple aspects of the customer’s behaviors could be analyzed using this dataset.

The data and the variable descriptions can be found at:

https://www.kaggle.com/blastchar/telco-customer-churn

Requirements:

Part I: Contextualization

In the Introductory section for Part 1 of your 4-5-page report, provide a contextualization of the dataset by doing the following:

Download the selected data set and review its description. Specify the selected dataset.

Summarize the story behind the data. Provide in-text and reference list citations of any outside sources that you consulted to contextualize the data collection efforts.

Explore the dataset. Explain the attributes of the entities.

Describe the data captured in the data set.

Summarize three observations from a cursory visual inspection of the data.

Part II: Research Questions

When data is collected, or even before collection starts, we have the purpose of the analysis in mind and plan accordingly. For an analysis to provide us with meaningful insight, we must plan it well and have a clear research question or questions in mind. The term “research” can sound scary, but it refers to a path to satisfying curiosity or resolving a problem. For Part II, which should be 2-3 pages, provide an analysis based on the background of the data sets:

Write three questions that this dataset can help answer.

Explain the importance of these questions in a business or other relevant context.

Identify the variables from the data set that are relevant to the questions.

Write a sample statement of outcome that your analysis may reveal.

Underline the words in these statements that refer to the variables identified in task prompt H.

Part III. Data Preparation and Distribution Analysis. Using an R script, please perform the following:

Identify the columns that hold the values of the variables you previously identified in the analysis of the research questions. Write R script to generate a subset of the given data. If the variable is categorical and the values are not numerical, transform the values into numerical values. For example, if the values of a column are ‘Y’ and ‘N’, use SQL to convert them to “0” and “1” respectively when generating the subset. That includes only the values for the selected variables and translate categorical values into numeric codes.

Write an R script for a query that provides insights into your research question.

Part IV. Reporting

Write a 250-word executive summary for members of the general public outlining the findings from your analysis.

Your well-written report should be 10-12 pages in length, not including the title or reference pages. Use Saudi Electronic University academic writing standards and APA style guidelines, citing at least two references in support of your work, in addition to your text and assigned readings.

You will upload a zipped file that includes your 10-12-page report and all supporting files, including Word, R code and Excel files, and screenshots that support the presentation of the findings in the report.

You are strongly encouraged to submit all assignments to the Turnitin Originality Check prior to submitting them to your instructor for grading. If you are unsure how to submit an assignment to the Originality Check tool, review the Turnitin Originality Check Student Guide.

Assignment Content

1. Your team of international developers will be developing a publicly accessible cloud-based application which may potentially house user PII data, information about users’ behaviors and activities (e.g., physical locations, online sites they visit, searches, purchases, etc.), and users’ intellectual property (e.g., photos, artwork, videos, etc.).

   Continue your work with your team on the features of the application by identifying ethical challenges and specifying the type of data the feature uses, a risk mitigation strategy for the risk you provided in Week 2, and a global ethical perspective of the choices you made in implementing a risk mitigation strategy.

   Develop a 1-page table using the Ethical Challenges Worksheet template provided. Turn in 1 table for the team.
