The report should be about 3500 words and should be submitted in an MSWord format
document for the client. Each group would be required to find AIS/ERP that addresses the
different aspects of the clients’ business especially the area of their enumerated challenges
and should also ensure that the client’s business requirements are addressed. You may also
employ any analysis or design tool in the preparation of your report – so long as the results
are suitable for presentation in the required Word document and are your own work.
