Objectives
This assessment requires you
critically analysethe system design process of a project using the theory and
principles studied during the course. This assessment item relates to the
course learning outcomes 1 to 5.
Background
Read the introduction
to the system design process on page 69 of the recommended text as background
for your report.

Details
Write a report
which critically analyses the system design process of a project. Projects
might include designing a light rail network for a city, more
environmentally-conscious buildings or a mine facility. You might not be
involved in the project personally, but some connection with the project would
make the analysis more meaningful. The report should analyse the following:
–
Conceptual system design
–
Preliminary system design
–
Detail design and development
You may wish
to refer to Chapters 2-5 in your recommended text. To demonstrate your research
skills and understanding, the report should:
–
Include relevant theories and
models
–
Draw upon relevant sources like
journals, books or reputable trade publications in analysing the project (at
least 10 publications, including a minimum of 3 peer reviewed research
articles)

Format
The report
should follow the Business Report Format.
The Preliminary Section should
include the Title Page, the Executive Summary and a Table of Contents. The Body
of the Report should have an introduction, conclusion and recommendations. It
should also include your analysis and discussion. You don’t need to include the
Assumptions section. The report should also have a Reference List (and
Appendices if required). You are expected to use the Harvard Referencing style
for the paper.
The 2000
(±10%) word length includes only the Body of the Report. It does not include
the Preliminary Section (Title Page, Executive Summary and Table of Contents),
the reference list or appendices.
