PROJECT DELIVERABLE 2: BUSINESS REQUIREMENTS

Due Week 4 and worth 120 points

This assignment consists of two (2) sections: a business requirements 
document and a project plan. You must submit both sections as separate files for 
the completion of this assignment. Label each file name according to the section 
of the assignment it is written for. Additionally, you may create and / or 
assume all necessary assumptions needed for the completion of this 
assignment.

Documenting the existing IT network and system is an important first step, 
but you, the CIO, know that capturing the needed changes can be critical to your 
success as an executive. You know that procuring and documenting quality 
business requirements is an important step toward the design of quality 
information systems. Completion of a quality requirements document allows user 
needs and expectations to be captured, so that infrastructure and information 
systems can be designed properly. Using the requirements document provided in 
the course shell as a part of the requirements gathering process, you are to 
assess the needs of the company as it prepares to become a multinational 
organization. You must consider current and future trends and requirements; 
however, assumptions should be realistic and carefully considered. The needs of 
the organization should be documented. Later deliverables will focus on 
specifics of all requirements.
