You are strongly advised to read “Preparation guidelines of the Coursework
Document” before answering your assignment.
Objective
This coursework is designed to demonstrate the broad understanding knowledge of the
module, assessing, and evaluating the strength and level of analysis of student, divided
into four learning outcomes, the coursework should be submitted as one document in a
report format.
Assignment Scenario:
You are working in a software development team. You are tasked with developing an
application for a Food distribution company called Premium Foods. Premium Foods is a
privately-run food business in London who is expanding their distribution across United
Kingdom. They need an application to enhance their business operations. Premium
Food wants the new application to help their staff to carry out the following functions:
• Add new products, search products, update existing products and remove
products.
• Search and view a customer’s details including personal details.
• Update customer details or remove a customer from the database.
• Display the list of registered customers from a city or search customer by postcode.
• You may add a supplier detail to the above entities to find out who is the supplier of
a product.
The user interface can be Desktop or Web based GUI (whichever the learner is fine with).
The learner must use C# as OOP programming language to develop this application.
The following details need to be stored during the customer’s registration: ID, First Name,
Last name, Phone number, Date of Birth, Address, Gender, etc.
The following details need to be stored about the Products: Product ID, Name, Price,
Description, Quantity, Expiry Date.
LO1
In relation to the above Business requirement, identify its business-related problem by
highlighting and preparing a well-defined problem definition statement. Describe the issues
that need to be addressed along with possible solutions supported by a set of user and
system requirements. Since every project is often related with many risks in achieving its
success, therefore you need to identify the areas of risk related to the successful
completion of your application. To start with the actual development, you need to analyse
the business-related problem of the case study using appropriate methods and produce a
well-structured Software Design Document that defines a proposed solution and includes
relevant details on requirements, system analysis, system design, coding, testing and
implementation.

,LO2
As we know that the ultimate objective of software engineering is to produce good quality
maintainable software within reasonable time frame and at an affordable cost, therefore
you need to carry out research on the use of different software development tools and
techniques/ methodologies and present with comparison on various software development
tools and techniques. Once you have reviewed, you need to justify on the one which you
have selected for the development of your application. It is important to get reviews on
your business application plan in order to achieve the desired business objectives and
therefore, you are required to create a formal presentation that effectively reviews your
business application, problem definition statement, and proposed solution and
development strategy.

have selected for the development of your application.
LO3
You are now required to present this plan to your other colleagues by preparing a
PowerPoint presentation as part of a peer-review and document any feedback given by
your peers. After getting the peer review from your colleagues, you are now required to
develop a fully functional business application based on a specified business problem
given in the case study above. You need to interpret your peer-review feedback and
identify changes/ addition in your report, that you will make on you design or development,
which was not previously considered by you. Make sure that your interpretation also
covers with arguments on the potential improvements carried out by you to your system.
LO4
Once you have fully developed the required application, you are now to make critical
review on the performance and development of your application. For this, you need to
review the performance of your business application against the Problem Definition
Statement and initial requirements. There are key factors that can negatively impact the
performance of the software application; therefore, you need to analyse the factors that
influence the performance of your business application and use them to undertake a
critical review of the design, development and testing stages of your application and
conclude your review by reflectively discussing your previously identified risks. As a part of
the final holistic evaluation of your project, you need to cover on the strengths and
weaknesses of your business application and justify opportunities for improvement and
further development.
