Based on this study New Concept will be able to recommend the &#65533;right&#65533; system. It is most important to develop the right system because if the system is not useful and does not meet business objectives then no matter how well it has been executed it will not be effective. Therefore the first step is to do an onsite evaluation of the objectives that the client is trying to consummate through the system. Having gotten a good grasp of the high level objectives, the next step is to break these down into very specific Business (social development) Requirements in terns of input data and output indicators and then translating these into Technical Requirements.<br /><br />After understanding the needs and articulating them in Business Requirements a system model will be developed which will model out the system on paper and identify its various aspects before any software development work is undertaken. This will organize the entire software development process and make it top down. This model can later be used to easily modify and extend the system. New Concept will work with the client team to develop the system model. This will ensure we understand the system model inside out and can continue to work with it as the system evolves. <br /><br />The activity cycle is illustrated in the Figure 1 below: <img src="http://www.newconceptinfosys.com/IDBMS/assets/images/project%20Methodology.gif" alt="" /><br />Figure 1: Activity Cycle Overview<br /><br /><strong>GATHERING BUSINESS REQUIREMENTS</strong><br /><br />The NCIS team assigned to the client project will meet the decision makers in an initial meeting to envision the basic system. At this meeting the NCIS team will inform the client about the general process that will be adopted to make the system. The first step of this process if for the management to identify precisely what they would need from the system.<br /><br />It is crucial to identify the fact at the outset that this stage requires substantial work on the part of the client. In this meeting NCIS will sit with the client and help them to think through what they need and help them to systemize and organize their needs into a general framework.<br /><br />At the end of this first visioning meeting, the client should have a good but rough idea of what they would require from the system and would understand a basic sketch of the system.<br /><br />Hereafter the client would be required to do a substantial amount of work to create Report mockups for the system. The client is the expert on the type of reports that they would like the system to generate. Since the final end result of the system being developed is to provide proceesed information in the format the client would like to see it in, it is crucial for the client to be very clear about the final reports the proposed system will generate. This clarity is articulated in the form of report mockups. These are to be prepared by the client in Excel and should be precise and also include any graphs if the system is to provide them. Please note that if the client would like NC to help with the domain specific process of creating reports for the client domain, the work of domain experts needs to budgeted into the proposal separately. This proposal does not include this work.<br /><br />Once the client has provided the report mockups, NC will create a system model and generate forms that would collect the data that will logically enable the system to generate the reports that the client would like the system to generate.<br /><br />The reports should also include calculations for calculated fields. The forms, reports and calculations together will comprise the Business Requirements.<br /><br />This is a key stage in the project as it represents an intellectual version of the system of paper. The Business Requirements document when it is created implies the solution of all domains specific issues (i.e. the types of forms and reports the client would like to see and how they will be structured in the system) on paper. Thereafter NCIS will translate this document into the system.<br /><br />Client management must then provide a formal approval by email to the Business Requirements to proceed to the next stage. This formal approval is key as the changes as articulated in the business requirements document will be programmed into the system. After the approval of the business requirements document it will not be possible to make further changes to the system (except cosmetic superficial changes) New Concept is expert at building and modifying web based systems specially for the social development sector. This is our core competence. Having done many such systems we have substantial practical experience in doing this type of work. One key aspect of this process is to separate the Business Logic/Domain problems from coding/programming problems.<br /><br />The purpose of creating the Business Requirements document in a great degree of detail is to solve all the domain/business logic problems at a conceptual level on paper, before any changes to the system are undertaken. Once these changes are discussed and approved by the client, these will be translated into code by New Concept&#65533;s team of expert crack programmers. It is crucial to know at the outset that changes structural changes cannot be entertained after the Business Requirements are approved and the coding has commenced, i.e. the set of approved Business Requirements are being translated into code.<br /><br /><strong>THE PROGRAMMING PHASE</strong><br /><br />The programming phase will commence as soon as the client provides formal written approval to the Business Requirements document via email.<br /><br />New Concepts team of highly skilled trained and experienced programmers will works with New Concepts heavy weight team leaders to translate the approved business requirements into the system. This will constitute the programming phase.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>DEVELOPMENT PLATFORM</strong><br /><br />The system can be developed in two alternative platforms. Windows/ASP.net/SQL Server or Linix/PHP/Mysql. NCIS is proficient in both platforms. The final choice of platform will be based on the organizational preferences of the client and will be determined in discussions with the web host of the client . In case the client goes with the windows platform there is a cost to purchase SQL server assuming that the client doesn&#65533;t already own a licensed version. A third party graphing tool will be employed which the client would have to purchase.<br /><br /><strong>PRESENTATION TO CLIENT</strong><br /><br />Upon the completion of the programming phase, New Concept will be ready to present the completed system to the client. The system will be available for the client to see online. A meeting can be held where the NC team leader will present the system to the client.<br /><br /><strong>CLIENT TESTING</strong><br /><br />During and after the presentation to the client meeting, the client will test the changes to the system comprehensively. The testing will be limited to the points listed in the Business Requirements Document. the client will provide New Concept with an excel file listing each change on a row. It is important to note that no changes other than those listed in the Business Requirements can be changed in the testing phase. They can be budgeted for separately and done separately from this financial contract if necessary. Once the client has compiled all the testing feedback in the excel file, they would send this to New Concept.<br /><br />The process of testing will be done using a Change Request File described in the previous paragraph. Requests for changes individually are difficult to entertain and make. Therefore the process that will be followed will be that the client will list all the changes (Offcourse these must be within the scope of work articulated in the Business Requirements) in the Change Request File. When the client has completed the testing and filled the Change Request File comprehensively, the crack programmers at NC will swiftly execute all the changes, making the system fully tested and almost ready to be deployed.<br /><br />NC would incorporate the testing changes and fix any bugs discovered as listed in the excel file containing testing feedback as provided by the client. They would upload these changes and the client would be able to see them online. Upon the completion of the changes listed in the testing excel file (assuming they are all non structural and within the scope of work as detailed in the business requirements) the programming phase of the project will be over.<br /><br /><strong>DEPLOYMENT</strong><br /><br />The fully tested code approved by the client will be deployed on the decided upon web hosting platform. Thereafter the system will be available to the world.<br /><br /><strong>USER TESTING:</strong><br /><br />Upon deployment users will test the system. At this stage if any bugs are found by the users (New feature requests by users are not bugs and if any of these are requested a separate proposal will be provided for these and these will not be in the scope of this contract) these bugs will be fixed by the programmes.<br /><br /><strong>USER GUIDE AND TRAINING </strong><br /><br />A Concise User Guide will be prepared and a soft copy will be provided to the client. This will be made to introduce the features of the system to new users who would be able to refer to it to get going with the system. <br /><br />A one day training session will be provided to key users. If this is within Delhi there will be no additional costs, if outside Delhi the client must bear all associated costs of board and lodging. <br /><br /><strong>HAND HOLDING SUPPORT</strong><br /><br />At this stage after testing by NC, the client and users it is not envisioned that any further support will be necessary. NC prides itself on building software of the highest quality. However should the client need any further support this will be provided over email or the phone for a period of 1 months after deployment. If there are any bugs that are discovered in the system these will be fixed. The bugs include errors in the system not system restructuring or new development. Further if the client needs any help with the system in this time NCIS will be a phone call or email away. <br /><br /><strong>DESIGN METHODOLOGY</strong><br /><br /><strong>ENVISIONING THE WEBSITE:</strong><br /><br />The first phase of the project is to write a narrative vision statement for the web site. At NC we lay great emphasis on this phase of web site development. It is most important to design a web site in accordance with a well thought out plan. Adopting a bottom up approach to a design is easier, but cannot result in the development of a sophisticated web site. A bottom up approach results in a suboptimal system with stand alone modules, non-standard design elements, and disjointed pieces of code. It is most important to have the web site envisioned and designed on paper as many design and architecture issues are addressed at this stage.<br /><br />The narrative vision will think through the graphic design, navigation and flow of the web site. It will also analyze the architecture of the information systems underlying the web site to recommend an optimal web site structure that is intelligent, user friendly and intuitive to use. <br /><br />A narrative vision will address following issues:<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;a)&nbsp; Site Map and architecture<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;b)&nbsp; Navigation and flow<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;c)&nbsp; Graphic Design options suggesting the look and feel of the site<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;d)&nbsp; Analysis thinking through the design issues and reasoning to support design and architectural choices.<br /><br /><strong>GRAPHIC DESIGN:</strong><br /><br />Graphic design will include the following:<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a)&nbsp; Creating and modifying visual options. In case the client has a brand book or brand color or look and feel guidelines, this along with the creative ideas discussed in the brainstorming meetings, will be used to create several design options. These will be presented to the team at the client. Based upon mutual discussions these will be modified to arrive at the final visual appearance of the web site. Two initial brain storming meetings are budgeted.<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b)&nbsp; Graphic design will address layout, colors (based upon brand book/guidelines), flow and navigation, graphics. <br /><br /><strong>EVOLUTIONARY DESIGN:</strong><br /><br />The fundamental design issues will be addressed by the one time design process including the Narrative Design Document and the one time graphic design that will proceed in accordance to it. Thereafter, an evolutionary approach will be taken to actually extend the overall design vision and high level design approach to all aspects of the web site. After the basic high level design issues of visual design, navigation, flow, and structure are addressed, additional design toppings including the following will be evaluated for relevance. Not all of the following add value and improve a website and after the brainstorming meetings these options will be evaluated to determine if any are relevant to the client&#65533;s needs. Please note that flash animations require substantial extra work which will be budgeted for separately in case the client decides to incorporate flash animations into their website. <br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a)&nbsp;Banners<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b)&nbsp;Buttons<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c)&nbsp;Images<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d)&nbsp;Flash Animations<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;e)&nbsp;News Letters<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;f)&nbsp;Screen shots of work done<br /><br />In addition to the above additional incremental evolutionary design avenues will be identified in the initial one time design process.<br /><br /><strong>DESIGN PROCESS AND DELIVERABLES:</strong><br /><br />Two initial brain storming meetings are budgeted. In these meetings design ideas will be discussed and new creative ideas will be generated. The purpose of these meetings is to question the assumptions of the client, share information about the latest trends in web design, lend NC&#65533;s heavy experience in design and web development to the client to explore previously un-thought ideas so as to expand the vision for the web site.<br /><br />The end result after these initial brainstorming meetings will be to arrive at a very precise picture of the design for the site. These ideas will then be articulated by NC into design options that will be emailed to the client. Two design options will be provided for the home page and two for the inside page templates. The client will then peruse these design options and email back suggestions for change. A third meeting can be held at this stage to review the design options. After this review meeting NC will incorporate the client feedback into the design options and email them back to the client for final approval.<br /><br />It is expected that the client will provide swift and timely approval and upon formal approval the NC team will proceed to translate the approved designs to CSS designs which are the cutting edge way to do graphic design for web sites.<br /><br />Post the approval, design changes will be difficult to do as they are to be done in CSS rather than on the design itself and will therefore be budgeted separately. It is highly recommended that the client fully finalize the design at the pre approval stage.<br /><br />Once the client has approved the design options and provided the content, these will be implemented on the web site. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>CONTENT:</strong><br /><br /><strong>Content Hierarchy:</strong><br /><br />It is most important in the new media of the internet, to be able to prioritize content. This is because; web users have a very limited span of attention. Therefore they come to a web page and need to be hit with the most important content immediately. If the important content is buried heavily under menu and sub menu items, then it is highly unlikely that the target audience will ever get to see it. Hence the crucial role of content hierarchy.<br /><br />The client is responsible for providing NC with a word document that contains the hierarchy of content. This is created by prioritizing the content of the organization with the most important key words listed first and then sub content areas listed below them, followed by sub areas and so on. This will be translated into the Menu system on the web site. This process will result in the client thinking about the positioning of their organization and thinking through how the content on the web site is to be presented. The end result of this process is a word document that contains this hierarchy of content which the client must supply to NC, which NC will use to create the menu systems.<br /><br />Thereafter the client must also provide the actual content of the pages that will appear when a user clicks on a menu item. Should the client require content development services including content development or proof reading, these must be budgeted for separately. <br /><br /><strong>Types of Content:</strong><br /><br />Two types of textual content should be included on the web site: <br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a)&nbsp;Static Content: Web sites generally contain some static content. These include pages of information that are not subject to rapid change. Examples of these are the Contact Us, About Us, Resumes and such pages. The way these are generally approached is that the client provides the edited and proof read content. This content is integrated by NC in the also provided Content Hierarchy (As described in the prior section)<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b)&nbsp;Dynamic Content: Often times it so happens that the client&#65533;s content is not really static and is subject to change quite often. In this case static content is not really feasible because once the content changes, the web pages will become obsolete. In this case there are several possibilities for dynamic content. These include the provision of database driven dynamic content or the use of a Content Management System. The relevance of these is to be determined after the initial brain storming meetings. In case any custom development or CMS integration is required cost estimates will be provided as a separate line item in this proposal. <br /></p>', '');

Based on this study New Concept will be able to recommend the &#65533;right&#65533; system. It is most important to develop the right system because if the system is not useful and does not meet business objectives then no matter how well it has been executed it will not be effective. Therefore the first step is to do an onsite evaluation of the objectives that the client is trying to consummate through the system. Having gotten a good grasp of the high level objectives, the next step is to break these down into very specific Business (social development) Requirements in terns of input data and output indicators and then translating these into Technical Requirements.<br /><br />After understanding the needs and articulating them in Business Requirements a system model will be developed which will model out the system on paper and identify its various aspects before any software development work is undertaken. This will organize the entire software development process and make it top down. This model can later be used to easily modify and extend the system. New Concept will work with the client team to develop the system model. This will ensure we understand the system model inside out and can continue to work with it as the system evolves. <br /><br />The activity cycle is illustrated in the Figure 1 below: <img src="http://www.newconceptinfosys.com/IDBMS/assets/images/project%20Methodology.gif" alt="" /><br />Figure 1: Activity Cycle Overview<br /><br /><strong>GATHERING BUSINESS REQUIREMENTS</strong><br /><br />The NCIS team assigned to the client project will meet the decision makers in an initial meeting to envision the basic system. At this meeting the NCIS team will inform the client about the general process that will be adopted to make the system. The first step of this process if for the management to identify precisely what they would need from the system.<br /><br />It is crucial to identify the fact at the outset that this stage requires substantial work on the part of the client. In this meeting NCIS will sit with the client and help them to think through what they need and help them to systemize and organize their needs into a general framework.<br /><br />At the end of this first visioning meeting, the client should have a good but rough idea of what they would require from the system and would understand a basic sketch of the system.<br /><br />Hereafter the client would be required to do a substantial amount of work to create Report mockups for the system. The client is the expert on the type of reports that they would like the system to generate. Since the final end result of the system being developed is to provide proceesed information in the format the client would like to see it in, it is crucial for the client to be very clear about the final reports the proposed system will generate. This clarity is articulated in the form of report mockups. These are to be prepared by the client in Excel and should be precise and also include any graphs if the system is to provide them. Please note that if the client would like NC to help with the domain specific process of creating reports for the client domain, the work of domain experts needs to budgeted into the proposal separately. This proposal does not include this work.<br /><br />Once the client has provided the report mockups, NC will create a system model and generate forms that would collect the data that will logically enable the system to generate the reports that the client would like the system to generate.<br /><br />The reports should also include calculations for calculated fields. The forms, reports and calculations together will comprise the Business Requirements.<br /><br />This is a key stage in the project as it represents an intellectual version of the system of paper. The Business Requirements document when it is created implies the solution of all domains specific issues (i.e. the types of forms and reports the client would like to see and how they will be structured in the system) on paper. Thereafter NCIS will translate this document into the system.<br /><br />Client management must then provide a formal approval by email to the Business Requirements to proceed to the next stage. This formal approval is key as the changes as articulated in the business requirements document will be programmed into the system. After the approval of the business requirements document it will not be possible to make further changes to the system (except cosmetic superficial changes) New Concept is expert at building and modifying web based systems specially for the social development sector. This is our core competence. Having done many such systems we have substantial practical experience in doing this type of work. One key aspect of this process is to separate the Business Logic/Domain problems from coding/programming problems.<br /><br />The purpose of creating the Business Requirements document in a great degree of detail is to solve all the domain/business logic problems at a conceptual level on paper, before any changes to the system are undertaken. Once these changes are discussed and approved by the client, these will be translated into code by New Concept&#65533;s team of expert crack programmers. It is crucial to know at the outset that changes structural changes cannot be entertained after the Business Requirements are approved and the coding has commenced, i.e. the set of approved Business Requirements are being translated into code.<br /><br /><strong>THE PROGRAMMING PHASE</strong><br /><br />The programming phase will commence as soon as the client provides formal written approval to the Business Requirements document via email.<br /><br />New Concepts team of highly skilled trained and experienced programmers will works with New Concepts heavy weight team leaders to translate the approved business requirements into the system. This will constitute the programming phase.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>DEVELOPMENT PLATFORM</strong><br /><br />The system can be developed in two alternative platforms. Windows/ASP.net/SQL Server or Linix/PHP/Mysql. NCIS is proficient in both platforms. The final choice of platform will be based on the organizational preferences of the client and will be determined in discussions with the web host of the client . In case the client goes with the windows platform there is a cost to purchase SQL server assuming that the client doesn&#65533;t already own a licensed version. A third party graphing tool will be employed which the client would have to purchase.<br /><br /><strong>PRESENTATION TO CLIENT</strong><br /><br />Upon the completion of the programming phase, New Concept will be ready to present the completed system to the client. The system will be available for the client to see online. A meeting can be held where the NC team leader will present the system to the client.<br /><br /><strong>CLIENT TESTING</strong><br /><br />During and after the presentation to the client meeting, the client will test the changes to the system comprehensively. The testing will be limited to the points listed in the Business Requirements Document. the client will provide New Concept with an excel file listing each change on a row. It is important to note that no changes other than those listed in the Business Requirements can be changed in the testing phase. They can be budgeted for separately and done separately from this financial contract if necessary. Once the client has compiled all the testing feedback in the excel file, they would send this to New Concept.<br /><br />The process of testing will be done using a Change Request File described in the previous paragraph. Requests for changes individually are difficult to entertain and make. Therefore the process that will be followed will be that the client will list all the changes (Offcourse these must be within the scope of work articulated in the Business Requirements) in the Change Request File. When the client has completed the testing and filled the Change Request File comprehensively, the crack programmers at NC will swiftly execute all the changes, making the system fully tested and almost ready to be deployed.<br /><br />NC would incorporate the testing changes and fix any bugs discovered as listed in the excel file containing testing feedback as provided by the client. They would upload these changes and the client would be able to see them online. Upon the completion of the changes listed in the testing excel file (assuming they are all non structural and within the scope of work as detailed in the business requirements) the programming phase of the project will be over.<br /><br /><strong>DEPLOYMENT</strong><br /><br />The fully tested code approved by the client will be deployed on the decided upon web hosting platform. Thereafter the system will be available to the world.<br /><br /><strong>USER TESTING:</strong><br /><br />Upon deployment users will test the system. At this stage if any bugs are found by the users (New feature requests by users are not bugs and if any of these are requested a separate proposal will be provided for these and these will not be in the scope of this contract) these bugs will be fixed by the programmes.<br /><br /><strong>USER GUIDE AND TRAINING </strong><br /><br />A Concise User Guide will be prepared and a soft copy will be provided to the client. This will be made to introduce the features of the system to new users who would be able to refer to it to get going with the system. <br /><br />A one day training session will be provided to key users. If this is within Delhi there will be no additional costs, if outside Delhi the client must bear all associated costs of board and lodging. <br /><br /><strong>HAND HOLDING SUPPORT</strong><br /><br />At this stage after testing by NC, the client and users it is not envisioned that any further support will be necessary. NC prides itself on building software of the highest quality. However should the client need any further support this will be provided over email or the phone for a period of 1 months after deployment. If there are any bugs that are discovered in the system these will be fixed. The bugs include errors in the system not system restructuring or new development. Further if the client needs any help with the system in this time NCIS will be a phone call or email away. <br /><br /><strong>DESIGN METHODOLOGY</strong><br /><br /><strong>ENVISIONING THE WEBSITE:</strong><br /><br />The first phase of the project is to write a narrative vision statement for the web site.

Based on this study New Concept will be able to recommend the &#65533;right&#65533; system. It is most important to develop the right system because if the system is not useful and does not meet business objectives then no matter how well it has been executed it will not be effective. Therefore the first step is to do an onsite evaluation of the objectives that the client is trying to consummate through the system. Having gotten a good grasp of the high level objectives, the next step is to break these down into very specific Business (social development) Requirements in terns of input data and output indicators and then translating these into Technical Requirements.<br /><br />After understanding the needs and articulating them in Business Requirements a system model will be developed which will model out the system on paper and identify its various aspects before any software development work is undertaken. This will organize the entire software development process and make it top down. This model can later be used to easily modify and extend the system. New Concept will work with the client team to develop the system model. This will ensure we understand the system model inside out and can continue to work with it as the system evolves. <br /><br />The activity cycle is illustrated in the Figure 1 below: <img src="http://www.newconceptinfosys.com/IDBMS/assets/images/project%20Methodology.gif" alt="" /><br />Figure 1: Activity Cycle Overview<br /><br /><strong>GATHERING BUSINESS REQUIREMENTS</strong><br /><br />The NCIS team assigned to the client project will meet the decision makers in an initial meeting to envision the basic system. At this meeting the NCIS team will inform the client about the general process that will be adopted to make the system. The first step of this process if for the management to identify precisely what they would need from the system.<br /><br />It is crucial to identify the fact at the outset that this stage requires substantial work on the part of the client. In this meeting NCIS will sit with the client and help them to think through what they need and help them to systemize and organize their needs into a general framework.<br /><br />At the end of this first visioning meeting, the client should have a good but rough idea of what they would require from the system and would understand a basic sketch of the system.<br /><br />Hereafter the client would be required to do a substantial amount of work to create Report mockups for the system. The client is the expert on the type of reports that they would like the system to generate. Since the final end result of the system being developed is to provide proceesed information in the format the client would like to see it in, it is crucial for the client to be very clear about the final reports the proposed system will generate. This clarity is articulated in the form of report mockups. These are to be prepared by the client in Excel and should be precise and also include any graphs if the system is to provide them. Please note that if the client would like NC to help with the domain specific process of creating reports for the client domain, the work of domain experts needs to budgeted into the proposal separately. This proposal does not include this work.<br /><br />Once the client has provided the report mockups, NC will create a system model and generate forms that would collect the data that will logically enable the system to generate the reports that the client would like the system to generate.<br /><br />The reports should also include calculations for calculated fields. The forms, reports and calculations together will comprise the Business Requirements.<br /><br />This is a key stage in the project as it represents an intellectual version of the system of paper. The Business Requirements document when it is created implies the solution of all domains specific issues (i.e. the types of forms and reports the client would like to see and how they will be structured in the system) on paper. Thereafter NCIS will translate this document into the system.<br /><br />Client management must then provide a formal approval by email to the Business Requirements to proceed to the next stage. This formal approval is key as the changes as articulated in the business requirements document will be programmed into the system. After the approval of the business requirements document it will not be possible to make further changes to the system (except cosmetic superficial changes) New Concept is expert at building and modifying web based systems specially for the social development sector. This is our core competence. Having done many such systems we have substantial practical experience in doing this type of work. One key aspect of this process is to separate the Business Logic/Domain problems from coding/programming problems.<br /><br />The purpose of creating the Business Requirements document in a great degree of detail is to solve all the domain/business logic problems at a conceptual level on paper, before any changes to the system are undertaken. Once these changes are discussed and approved by the client, these will be translated into code by New Concept&#65533;s team of expert crack programmers. It is crucial to know at the outset that changes structural changes cannot be entertained after the Business Requirements are approved and the coding has commenced, i.e. the set of approved Business Requirements are being translated into code.<br /><br /><strong>THE PROGRAMMING PHASE</strong><br /><br />The programming phase will commence as soon as the client provides formal written approval to the Business Requirements document via email.<br /><br />New Concepts team of highly skilled trained and experienced programmers will works with New Concepts heavy weight team leaders to translate the approved business requirements into the system. This will constitute the programming phase.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>DEVELOPMENT PLATFORM</strong><br /><br />The system can be developed in two alternative platforms. Windows/ASP.net/SQL Server or Linix/PHP/Mysql. NCIS is proficient in both platforms. The final choice of platform will be based on the organizational preferences of the client and will be determined in discussions with the web host of the client . In case the client goes with the windows platform there is a cost to purchase SQL server assuming that the client doesn&#65533;t already own a licensed version. A third party graphing tool will be employed which the client would have to purchase.<br /><br /><strong>PRESENTATION TO CLIENT</strong><br /><br />Upon the completion of the programming phase, New Concept will be ready to present the completed system to the client. The system will be available for the client to see online. A meeting can be held where the NC team leader will present the system to the client.<br /><br /><strong>CLIENT TESTING</strong><br /><br />During and after the presentation to the client meeting, the client will test the changes to the system comprehensively. The testing will be limited to the points listed in the Business Requirements Document. the client will provide New Concept with an excel file listing each change on a row. It is important to note that no changes other than those listed in the Business Requirements can be changed in the testing phase. They can be budgeted for separately and done separately from this financial contract if necessary. Once the client has compiled all the testing feedback in the excel file, they would send this to New Concept.<br /><br />The process of testing will be done using a Change Request File described in the previous paragraph. Requests for changes individually are difficult to entertain and make. Therefore the process that will be followed will be that the client will list all the changes (Offcourse these must be within the scope of work articulated in the Business Requirements) in the Change Request File. When the client has completed the testing and filled the Change Request File comprehensively, the crack programmers at NC will swiftly execute all the changes, making the system fully tested and almost ready to be deployed.<br /><br />NC would incorporate the testing changes and fix any bugs discovered as listed in the excel file containing testing feedback as provided by the client. They would upload these changes and the client would be able to see them online. Upon the completion of the changes listed in the testing excel file (assuming they are all non structural and within the scope of work as detailed in the business requirements) the programming phase of the project will be over.<br /><br /><strong>DEPLOYMENT</strong><br /><br />The fully tested code approved by the client will be deployed on the decided upon web hosting platform. Thereafter the system will be available to the world.<br /><br /><strong>USER TESTING:</strong><br /><br />Upon deployment users will test the system. At this stage if any bugs are found by the users (New feature requests by users are not bugs and if any of these are requested a separate proposal will be provided for these and these will not be in the scope of this contract) these bugs will be fixed by the programmes.<br /><br /><strong>USER GUIDE AND TRAINING </strong><br /><br />A Concise User Guide will be prepared and a soft copy will be provided to the client. This will be made to introduce the features of the system to new users who would be able to refer to it to get going with the system. <br /><br />A one day training session will be provided to key users. If this is within Delhi there will be no additional costs, if outside Delhi the client must bear all associated costs of board and lodging. <br /><br /><strong>HAND HOLDING SUPPORT</strong><br /><br />At this stage after testing by NC, the client and users it is not envisioned that any further support will be necessary. NC prides itself on building software of the highest quality. However should the client need any further support this will be provided over email or the phone for a period of 1 months after deployment. If there are any bugs that are discovered in the system these will be fixed. The bugs include errors in the system not system restructuring or new development. Further if the client needs any help with the system in this time NCIS will be a phone call or email away. <br /><br /><strong>DESIGN METHODOLOGY</strong><br /><br /><strong>ENVISIONING THE WEBSITE:</strong><br /><br />The first phase of the project is to write a narrative vision statement for the web site. At NC we lay great emphasis on this phase of web site development. It is most important to design a web site in accordance with a well thought out plan. Adopting a bottom up approach to a design is easier, but cannot result in the development of a sophisticated web site. A bottom up approach results in a suboptimal system with stand alone modules, non-standard design elements, and disjointed pieces of code. It is most important to have the web site envisioned and designed on paper as many design and architecture issues are addressed at this stage.<br /><br />The narrative vision will think through the graphic design, navigation and flow of the web site. It will also analyze the architecture of the information systems underlying the web site to recommend an optimal web site structure that is intelligent, user friendly and intuitive to use. <br /><br />A narrative vision will address following issues:<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;a)&nbsp; Site Map and architecture<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;b)&nbsp; Navigation and flow<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;c)&nbsp; Graphic Design options suggesting the look and feel of the site<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;d)&nbsp; Analysis thinking through the design issues and reasoning to support design and architectural choices.<br /><br /><strong>GRAPHIC DESIGN:</strong><br /><br />Graphic design will include the following:<br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a)&nbsp; Creating and modifying visual options. In case the client has a brand book or brand color or look and feel guidelines, this along with the creative ideas discussed in the brainstorming meetings, will be used to create several design options. These will be presented to the team at the client. Based upon mutual discussions these will be modified to arrive at the final visual appearance of the web site. Two initial brain storming meetings are budgeted.<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b)&nbsp; Graphic design will address layout, colors (based upon brand book/guidelines), flow and navigation, graphics. <br /><br /><strong>EVOLUTIONARY DESIGN:</strong><br /><br />The fundamental design issues will be addressed by the one time design process including the Narrative Design Document and the one time graphic design that will proceed in accordance to it. Thereafter, an evolutionary approach will be taken to actually extend the overall design vision and high level design approach to all aspects of the web site. After the basic high level design issues of visual design, navigation, flow, and structure are addressed, additional design toppings including the following will be evaluated for relevance. Not all of the following add value and improve a website and after the brainstorming meetings these options will be evaluated to determine if any are relevant to the client&#65533;s needs. Please note that flash animations require substantial extra work which will be budgeted for separately in case the client decides to incorporate flash animations into their website. <br /><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a)&nbsp;Banners<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b)&nbsp;Buttons<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c)&nbsp;Images<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d)&nbsp;Flash Animations<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;e)&nbsp;News Letters<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;f)&nbsp;Screen shots of work done<br /><br />In addition to the above additional incremental evolutionary design avenues will be identified in the initial one time design process.<br /><br /><strong>DESIGN PROCESS AND DELIVERABLES:</strong><br /><br />Two initial brain storming meetings are budgeted. In these meetings design ideas will be discussed and new creative ideas will be generated. The purpose of these meetings is to question the assumptions of the client, share information about the latest trends in web design, lend NC&#65533;s heavy experience in design and web development to the client to explore previously un-thought ideas so as to expand the vision for the web site.<br /><br />The end result after these initial brainstorming meetings will be to arrive at a very precise picture of the design for the site. These ideas will then be articulated by NC into design options that will be emailed to the client. Two design options will be provided for the home page and two for the inside page templates. The client will then peruse these design options and email back suggestions for change. A third meeting can be held at this stage to review the design options. After this review meeting NC will incorporate the client feedback into the design options and email them back to the client for final approval.<br /><br />It is expected that the client will provide swift and timely approval and upon formal approval the NC team will proceed to translate the approved designs to CSS designs which are the cutting edge way to do graphic design for web sites.<br /><br />Post the approval, design changes will be difficult to do as they are to be done in CSS rather than on the design itself and will therefore be budgeted separately. It is highly recommended that the client fully finalize the design at the pre approval stage.<br /><br />Once the client has approved the design options and provided the content, these will be implemented on the web site. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>CONTENT:</strong><br /><br /><strong>Content Hierarchy:</strong><br /><br />It is most important in the new media of the internet, to be able to prioritize content. This is because; web users have a very limited span of attention. Therefore they come to a web page and need to be hit with the most important content immediately. If the important content is buried heavily under menu and sub menu items, then it is highly unlikely that the target audience will ever get to see it. Hence the crucial role of content hierarchy.<br /><br />The client is responsible for providing NC with a word document that contains the hierarchy of content. This is created by prioritizing the content of the organization with the most important key words listed first and then sub content areas listed below them, followed by sub areas and so on. This will be translated into the Menu system on the web site. This process will result in the client thinking about the positioning of their organization and thinking through how the content on the web site is to be presented. The end result of this process is a word document that contains this hierarchy of content which the client must supply to NC, which NC will use to create the menu systems.<br /><br />Thereafter the client must also provide the actual content of the pages that will appear when a user clicks on a menu item. Should the client require content development services including content development or proof reading, these must be budgeted for separately. <br /><br /><strong>Types of Content:</strong><br /><br />Two types of textual content should be included on the web site: <br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a)&nbsp;Static Content: Web sites generally contain some static content. These include pages of information that are not subject to rapid change. Examples of these are the Contact Us, About Us, Resumes and such pages. The way these are generally approached is that the client provides the edited and proof read content. This content is integrated by NC in the also provided Content Hierarchy (As described in the prior section)<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b)&nbsp;Dynamic Content: Often times it so happens that the client&#65533;s content is not really static and is subject to change quite often. In this case static content is not really feasible because once the content changes, the web pages will become obsolete. In this case there are several possibilities for dynamic content. These include the provision of database driven dynamic content or the use of a Content Management System. The relevance of these is to be determined after the initial brain storming meetings.

MAPEDIR Phase II whose requirements are described below comprises of crucial changes that are of key importance to the use of the MAPEDIR software. They are as follows:</p>\r\n<p>1)&nbsp;The Ability to Save and Go Back To Previous Forms<br />2)&nbsp;The Creation and Deployment of an Offline Version of the Software</p>\r\n<p>Description of the Phase I MAPEDIR System:<br />The MAPEDIR system is very large system. There are two versions of the Phase I system, version 1 and version 2. These versions reflect 2 survey formats, the old survey format and the new survey format. These are very large surveys.</p>\r\n<p>The version 1 survey is implemented in the MAPEDIR system and has the following specifications:</p>\r\n<p>No of web forms: Approx 65<br />No of reports: Approx 60<br />Fields in the forms: Approx Over 1000<br />Validations in the forms including data type checks and skips: Approx 1000</p>\r\n<p><br />Similarly version 2 of the system which is a variation of version 1 due to a slightly different format of the survey has the following specifications:<br />&nbsp;</p>\r\n<p>No of web forms: Approx 12<br />No of reports: Approx 60 (Reports are the same as version 1) <br />Fields in the forms: Approx over 800<br />Validations in the forms including data type checks and skips: Approx 800</p>\r\n<p>The above specifications make clear the large scale of the MAPEDIR system. This large scale has one corollorary. Changes that are to be made system across the whole system are very time consuming given that they have to be executed for so many fields, forms and reports. This must be kept in mind in recommending system wide changes. They will be time consuming and hence expensive. However where specific changes are needed, i.e. changes to a particular report or form or field, these are relatively straightforward as they are limited in nature and do not have to be rolled out across the entire vast system.</p>\r\n<p>Analysis of the MAPEDIR Phase II Requirements:</p>\r\n<p>Having described the scale and nature of MAPEDIR Phase I above, we can now proceed to analyze how the critical changes that comprise the Phase II can be approached. These are listed and discussed below:</p>\r\n<p>1)&nbsp;The Ability to Save and Go Back To Previous Forms</p>\r\n<p>Given such a vast system and so many forms, an essential feature is that there needs to be a way to go back and forth between the forms by the user. Currently when the user is entering data they start by filling out form 1, then they proceed to form 2 and so one till they reach the last form (and this could span approx 20 forms for version 1 and approx 12 forms for version 2) Given that data entry is currently done online, this is a very difficult task. This is because:<br />1)&nbsp;Human attention span is limited and it is very difficult for a user to enter 20 forms all together. There is currently no feature to enter some of the forms at a time and come back and enter the rest later.<br />2)&nbsp;Internet connectivity and electricity are unreliable in the field. In the case of a gap in internet connectivity or electricity (without power backup) the connection will break and if the user is in the midst of entering 20 forms, this process will be disrupted and they will have to start again.<br />3)&nbsp;Given the above two simple but crucial considerations, it is envisioned that it will be very difficult for users to complete data entry the way the system is currently structured.</p>\r\n<p>Therefore it is recommended that in MAPEDIR Phase II, a system be put into place that allows the user to save each form as they complete it. This is however complicated by the fact that the MAPEDIR survey has an indicate system of &ldquo;Skips&rdquo;. For example when a certain field is filled out, the system may want the user to skip several pages ahead and then proceed from there. A different choice will cause them to skip to another page. Given the large scale of the system, in this &ldquo;skip&rdquo; scenario, there is only one logical possibility for saving the forms taking skips into account.</p>\r\n<p>This is that at every form the user will be given a choice to 1) Save the form as is 2) Go back to a particular form number. If they choose to save the form this is straightforward.&nbsp; If on the other hand, they feel they have made a mistake and they would like to go back to a certain previous form, the system will warn them, which all forms between the forms they have chosen to go to, and the current form will be deleted. If they select yes to this option, then they will go back to the form they have requested, all data in the interim forms being deleted.</p>\r\n<p>This deletion of data in the interim forms in a logical necessity given skips. This is made clear by the fact that if the user chooses a certain skip path in a previous form, then returns to the same form and chooses a different skip path, then the interim forms will contain wrong data and hence logically, the correct solution is for them to be deleted and reentered.</p>\r\n<p>The above has been arrived at after substantial discussion of the technical team at New Concept and is envisioned as absolutely necessary for the web enabled system to be viable in the field.</p>\r\n<p><br />2)&nbsp;The Creation and Deployment of an Offline Version of the Software</p>\r\n<p>The incorporation of the functionality to go back and to save forms will help the users a lot. However another important feature is to have an offline version of the software that the users can fill out offline and once a record is complete, they can press and upload button to upload the data to the online system.</p>\r\n<p>This still requires the back functionality as the users even when working offline might make a mistake on form 19 and want to go back a few forms rather than start again from form 1. Given this back functionality, the offline system allows the user to work at ease without the sword of internet access or electricity breaking their connection with the system.</p>\r\n<p>However there are several considerations to implement the offline solution:</p>\r\n<p>1)&nbsp;A version of the online system will have to be installed at each offline location. This will require the installation of a Microsoft Operating system (like XP or 2003) and MS Sql server. There are out of pocket costs related. Further the installation of the system offline will require a technical person to go to the location and set up the system. Further methods to address computer failures and reinstallations will have to be put into place. <br />2)&nbsp;An offline system has the above overheads. And needs to be evaluated from the point of view of necessity given the Back functionality of the online system.<br />3)&nbsp;The offline system needs to be discussed between NC and UNICEF regarding its necessity in MAPEDIR phase II.<br />If implemented the offline module will allow users to enter data offline and upload it at once. However given that users can save online if the first part of the MAPEDIR Phase II is implemented, a valid question is whether the Offline version is necessary, given the costs of offline installation and maintenance.</p>', ''),

Phase II represents the next major iteration in the development of MAPEDIR as it aims to build in features that were not envisioned as necessary in phase I but were found to be important during the development or user testing of the Phase I MAPEDIR system. <br />Iterative Software Development<br />Software development is necessarily an iterative exercise. Software is developed in versions. Once the software has been developed, the user may find new reports or features it would like incorporated into the system. These can be recorded and when substantial functionality needs to be developed a separate contract can be created to develop this functionality in subsequent version of the software.</p>\r\n<p><br />The Post Deployment Feature Request File:</p>\r\n<p>It has been recommended that during the field testing process, a Feature Request File be maintained by UNICEF. This will list all the features that users in the field are recommending. After 6 months of user testing this Features Request File can be examined by UNICEF and New Concept to determine which features they would like to incorporate into the software.</p>\r\n<p>This Feature Request File will serve to be a repository of feedback from the field that will highlight the possible areas for change in the system from a crucial user perspective. Not all the features listed here need to be executed. However this provides a good starting point for management to determine the features that are to be included in later versions of the software.</p>\r\n<p>Immediate Requirements for MAPEDIR Phase II:</p>\r\n<p>Post the development of MAPEDIR Phase I, several key requirements have come to light in user testing and also discussions between UNICEF and NC. These are the most important requirements and are listed below. It is envisioned that the Feature Request File will gather additional requirements however these can be addressed in Phase III which can be a refining phase. MAPEDIR Phase II whose requirements are described below comprises of crucial changes that are of key importance to the use of the MAPEDIR software. They are as follows:</p>\r\n<p>1)&nbsp;The Ability to Save and Go Back To Previous Forms<br />2)&nbsp;The Creation and Deployment of an Offline Version of the Software</p>\r\n<p>Description of the Phase I MAPEDIR System:<br />The MAPEDIR system is very large system. There are two versions of the Phase I system, version 1 and version 2. These versions reflect 2 survey formats, the old survey format and the new survey format. These are very large surveys.</p>\r\n<p>The version 1 survey is implemented in the MAPEDIR system and has the following specifications:</p>\r\n<p>No of web forms: Approx 65<br />No of reports: Approx 60<br />Fields in the forms: Approx Over 1000<br />Validations in the forms including data type checks and skips: Approx 1000</p>\r\n<p><br />Similarly version 2 of the system which is a variation of version 1 due to a slightly different format of the survey has the following specifications:<br />&nbsp;</p>\r\n<p>No of web forms: Approx 12<br />No of reports: Approx 60 (Reports are the same as version 1) <br />Fields in the forms: Approx over 800<br />Validations in the forms including data type checks and skips: Approx 800</p>\r\n<p>The above specifications make clear the large scale of the MAPEDIR system. This large scale has one corollorary. Changes that are to be made system across the whole system are very time consuming given that they have to be executed for so many fields, forms and reports. This must be kept in mind in recommending system wide changes. They will be time consuming and hence expensive. However where specific changes are needed, i.e. changes to a particular report or form or field, these are relatively straightforward as they are limited in nature and do not have to be rolled out across the entire vast system.</p>\r\n<p>Analysis of the MAPEDIR Phase II Requirements:</p>\r\n<p>Having described the scale and nature of MAPEDIR Phase I above, we can now proceed to analyze how the critical changes that comprise the Phase II can be approached. These are listed and discussed below:</p>\r\n<p>1)&nbsp;The Ability to Save and Go Back To Previous Forms</p>\r\n<p>Given such a vast system and so many forms, an essential feature is that there needs to be a way to go back and forth between the forms by the user. Currently when the user is entering data they start by filling out form 1, then they proceed to form 2 and so one till they reach the last form (and this could span approx 20 forms for version 1 and approx 12 forms for version 2) Given that data entry is currently done online, this is a very difficult task. This is because:<br />1)&nbsp;Human attention span is limited and it is very difficult for a user to enter 20 forms all together. There is currently no feature to enter some of the forms at a time and come back and enter the rest later.<br />2)&nbsp;Internet connectivity and electricity are unreliable in the field. In the case of a gap in internet connectivity or electricity (without power backup) the connection will break and if the user is in the midst of entering 20 forms, this process will be disrupted and they will have to start again.<br />3)&nbsp;Given the above two simple but crucial considerations, it is envisioned that it will be very difficult for users to complete data entry the way the system is currently structured.</p>\r\n<p>Therefore it is recommended that in MAPEDIR Phase II, a system be put into place that allows the user to save each form as they complete it. This is however complicated by the fact that the MAPEDIR survey has an indicate system of &ldquo;Skips&rdquo;. For example when a certain field is filled out, the system may want the user to skip several pages ahead and then proceed from there. A different choice will cause them to skip to another page. Given the large scale of the system, in this &ldquo;skip&rdquo; scenario, there is only one logical possibility for saving the forms taking skips into account.</p>\r\n<p>This is that at every form the user will be given a choice to 1) Save the form as is 2) Go back to a particular form number. If they choose to save the form this is straightforward.&nbsp; If on the other hand, they feel they have made a mistake and they would like to go back to a certain previous form, the system will warn them, which all forms between the forms they have chosen to go to, and the current form will be deleted. If they select yes to this option, then they will go back to the form they have requested, all data in the interim forms being deleted.</p>\r\n<p>This deletion of data in the interim forms in a logical necessity given skips. This is made clear by the fact that if the user chooses a certain skip path in a previous form, then returns to the same form and chooses a different skip path, then the interim forms will contain wrong data and hence logically, the correct solution is for them to be deleted and reentered.</p>\r\n<p>The above has been arrived at after substantial discussion of the technical team at New Concept and is envisioned as absolutely necessary for the web enabled system to be viable in the field.</p>\r\n<p><br />2)&nbsp;The Creation and Deployment of an Offline Version of the Software</p>\r\n<p>The incorporation of the functionality to go back and to save forms will help the users a lot. However another important feature is to have an offline version of the software that the users can fill out offline and once a record is complete, they can press and upload button to upload the data to the online system.</p>\r\n<p>This still requires the back functionality as the users even when working offline might make a mistake on form 19 and want to go back a few forms rather than start again from form 1.

While the web site is attractive to look at the decision makers at UNDP India have decided to raise the bar and make the UNDP India web site even better. The international UNDP templating system allows country offices to modify their websites within the parameters of certain templates. This gives the country office scope to be creative and innovative with their web sites.</p>\r\n<p>The biggest change that is described in the TOR is the move away from the currently bright and colorful (Almost Rajasthani) look and feel, to a more conservative look and feel that repositions the organization. This more academic look and feel would not occur on the home page, but in the practice area pages. This is coupled with the creation of a knowledge repository for the web site. The knowledge repository takes the website from Web 1.0 to 2.0, where the website is no longer an online brochure, but an interactive respository of serious research.</p>\r\n<p>Technical Approach:<br />The precise changes to be made are listed in detail in the Scope of Work section; therefore they will not be repeated here. There are three types of work to be accomplished which are listed below:</p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;1) Cosmetic changes to the home page where certain additional sections are added and the design of the home page is modified, to include this additional sections. This also includes the resizing of the animation.<br />&nbsp;2) The complete repositioning of the practice area templates to make them more conservative, serious and academic</p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;3) The largest component of the work is to transform the UNDP India web site into a knowledge repository of substantive issues on development in India</p>\r\n<p>An approach to each of the above is listed below:</p>\r\n<p>1) Cosmetic changes to the home page:</p>\r\n<p>It is not appropriate to make cosmetic changes without a larger picture. Rather than trying to make these changes haphazardly, NC will proceed by creating design options for the home page. These design options will be created based on an initial brain storming meeting with the client. Here the needs of the client will be understood. Moreover, yet unthought-of possibilities will be explored and put on the table. All this new information will be discussed by NC and UNDP, further the target stakeholders who will be using the site will be identified. Based on the above process a picture will emerge regarding how the home page of the web site should be created. Design options will be created. All the cosmetic changes that are listed including the resizing of the animation, the fitting in of the sections listed in the scope of work and such changes will be done, within the scheme of a new top down design created for the home page. It may be that the new design is similar to the existing design; however this new top down design process will create a nice well balanced look and feel for the home page, which will not be possible, if the current page is merely adjusted to fit in the new sections here and there.</p>\r\n<p>2) The mandate is clear. The practice area pages need to be repositioned from the current bright and colorful, to a new research oriented, conservative, more academic, look and feel. This highlights a shift in the overall thinking of the decision makers at UNDP and fits in hand and glove with the new vision for the UNDP website, to transform it into a knowledge repository. A repository is used by more serious researchers, further it is a functional thing. Whereas a website (specially the web 1.0 type websites) are more like brochures. So what we are talking about is to make the UNDP website a repository from the current informational website.</p>\r\n<p>Once again the various templates will be looked at in the initial brainstorming meetings and while only conservative academic templates will be evaluated, even within these, the best ones will have to be short listed and finally one will be selected for deployment.</p>\r\n<p>3) The largest component of this proposal is to covert the UNDP web site into a knowledge repository. While this would normally be straightforward, the fact that the website is currently deployed on the Joomla cms implies that the means and methods of accomplishing this are limited to what is supported by Joomla. New Concept is adept at Content Management Systems and has created web sites using Joomla, Drupal and Mambo.</p>\r\n<p>The benefit of using a CMS is that they come prepackaged with a whole range of functionality which can be turned on without much work. The weakness is that the degree of customization that a CMS allows is limited (this is a cost for prepackaged functionality. Being prepackaged, it is available out of the box, but it is only so customizable)</p>\r\n<p>Before the knowledge repository is built, it must be architected. Before it is architected it must be envisioned. Once again the transformation of the UNDP website into a knowledge repository centered about development issues in India (Particularly relevant to the MDGs) must start with brain storming meetings where ideas are discussed at the top level. This will bring new ideas and possibilities to the fore and these can be incorporated into the design process.</p>\r\n<p>Once the ideas are on the table, a structure for the Knowledge Repository (KR) will be recommended. In essence the key to a KR is that information must be archived in an organized way and it must be accessible in very intuitive ways. There are several basic aspects of a KR that must be present. These include:<br />&nbsp;1) The classification of the knowledge into topics or domains. Various content will be available through the various programmatic domains<br />&nbsp;2) The storage of the content in a database and the access of the content through the web site. In this case, this will happen through Joomla. The KR capabilities of Joomla will have to be taken into account. Since this is the already deployed CMS, the KR can only be built within the constraints of what is supported by Joomla. <br />&nbsp;3) A Search feature must be present. What is knowledge if it is not it cannot be found when it is needed? Joomla supports search and other such features.</p>\r\n<p>However the precise form that this knowledge repository takes is of utmost importance and NC will play a pivotal role in recommending the "right" structure for this kR.</p>', '');

This is not well reflected in the website.</p>\r\n<p>The types and descriptions of training courses offered do not currently represent the trainings very well.</p>\r\n<p>The bottom line is that the entire positioning for the organization needs to be re-evaluated and re-envisioned.</p>\r\n<p>Once this is done, this needs to be translated into the website.</p>\r\n<p>Currently there are no E-Learning features on the website, for an organization that is in the business of training</p>\r\n<p>in the internet age, this is a must.</p>\r\n<p>The website is a prior generation site, in that it is an online brochure, none of the interactive possibilities of the</p>\r\n<p>internet are explored and incorporated into the website.</p>', '<p>For an organization with such a high profile, especially internationally, given that ICISA is not only training</p>\r\n<p>domestic auditors, but teaches a large proportion of International students, ICISA has a very elementary and</p>\r\n<p>hum drum, prior generation website.</p>\r\n<p>Today the internet is the first choice medium for finding out about anything anywhere. This fact is even more</p>\r\n<p>dominant when any kind of international research is required. Since so many of ICISA"s students are based</p>\r\n<p>abroad, the very first contact that a potential student has with ICISA is probably through the website.</p>\r\n<p>The saying goes, "First impressions are lasting!" This means that the first impression that the ICISA students</p>\r\n<p>get from looking at the website, stays with them, albeit at a subconscious level, for when they eventually come</p>\r\n<p>to India, to ICISA"s beautiful verdant campus, and top notch audit related training, no doubt, the first poor</p>\r\n<p>impression created by an antiquated website with poor graphic design, visual communication and content,</p>\r\n<p>must be alleviated somewhat. However somewhere this impression remains.</p>\r\n<p>Therefore, the first mandated scope of work, is to thoroughly and completely redesign the ICISA website</p>\r\n<p>Since ICISA is primarily a training organization, it is looking at the internet as a vehicle through which training</p>\r\n<p>can be delivered. To this end, the organization would like to create E-Learning tools that will enable the</p>\r\n<p>organization to support the training that it is providing.</p>\r\n<p>In addition further interactive features should be evaluated and those that are deemed as relevant and can add</p>\r\n<p>substantial value to the website should be incorporated.</p>', 1, '<p>I) ICISA Positioning:</p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;First and foremost before a visioning exercise is undertaken, it is important to be clear about the</p>\r\n<p>positioning of the organization. One meeting will be held to brainstorm and discuss possibilities regarding the</p>\r\n<p>positioning of the organization. Some basic points that were discussed include the following:<br />&nbsp;* ICISA would like to project itself as an organization of International standards. To this end the</p>\r\n<p>websites of the supreme audit organizations of the leading countries will be explored and used as reference in</p>\r\n<p>terms of a starting point.<br />&nbsp;* The organization should have a progressive image<br />&nbsp;* The positioning of the organization should be such that it targets international trainees, and</p>\r\n<p>positions the organization and the trainings that it offers as a very positive and interesting experience that</p>\r\n<p>would motivate the trainees to look forward to their training at ICISA.</p>\r\n<p>The above will be a starting point; thereafter the positioning of the organization will be discussed starting with a</p>\r\n<p>clean slate to arrive at the positioning that the new redesigned website is to project.</p>\r\n<p>II) ICISA website Visioning and Design:</p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;Once the positioning is clear, in the first meeting itself, ideas regarding how the final website should</p>\r\n<p>appear and what kind of visual look and feel it should have will be discussed. Thereafter design mockups will</p>\r\n<p>be created and presented to the client. The client and NC will then discuss these design options and changes</p>\r\n<p>that come out of this process will be incorporated into the design. Thereafter two design options will be</p>\r\n<p>emailed to the client. The client can then recommend further changes which again will be incorporated or</p>\r\n<p>approve the design. Once the design is approved it will be translated into the actual website. <br />&nbsp;As the following section on the design process indicates, the design includes not only the visual</p>\r\n<p>layout of the website, but also consideration including the navigation, menus and the logical flow of the website.</p>\r\n<p>The idea is to make the website visually appealing and also user friendly and easy to navigate so that users</p>\r\n<p>can easily and intuitively find the most important content on the website, while the reference material is</p>\r\n<p>available but does not dilute the most important content.</p>\r\n<p>III) Content:</p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;This proposal assumes that ICISA will undertake an internal exercise to determine what content they</p>\r\n<p>would like to have on the website. The organization would then have to prepare a word file that lists all the</p>\r\n<p>content. This content should be proofread and well organized. A hierarchical section with headings and sub</p>\r\n<p>headings that organizes the content into a logical hierarchy will also be provided to NC by the client. This will</p>\r\n<p>eventually become the main menu on the home page. It is important to be clear that NC will not be developing</p>\r\n<p>content for ICISA as part of this proposal, but will be supplying NC with the finalized content for the website.</p>\r\n<p>Should ICISA need help with content a separate quotation can be solicited from the Documentation group at</p>\r\n<p>NC, and can be provided on request.</p>\r\n<p><br />IV) E-Learning:<br />&nbsp;The exploitation of the E-learning capabilities of the internet is crucial to an organization that</p>\r\n<p>provides training to international clients who return to their own country. The returning of the clients to their home</p>\r\n<p>countries provides an opportunity to put forth support material on the website that gives the trainees a good</p>\r\n<p>reason to return to the website.</p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;There are two possible ways to go with e-learning solutions. One is to develop customized e-</p>\r\n<p>learning functionality that will offer basic e-learning features to the audience. The 2nd is to install existing e-</p>\r\n<p>learning software, some of which is open source, and enable it for the ICISA website. Both need to be</p>\r\n<p>evaluated to determine which forms the best fit with the needs of ICISA.</p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;Since ICISA does not have very specialized needs with regard to e-learning, it is not recommended</p>\r\n<p>that custom software be developed. This would be relevant to organizations, that have very particular needs</p>\r\n<p>and E-learning is central to their activities. Many open source E-learning solutions are available, it is</p>\r\n<p>recommended that these be researched by NC for ICISA, and the top 3 evaluated and presented to ICISA.</p>\r\n<p>Based on this the best open source E-learning system should be installed and deployed on the ICISA website.</p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;The content for the E-learning needs to be provided by ICISA. This could include transcripts of the</p>\r\n<p>classes, and/or video/audio files. One vision is that along with the listing and description of courses that ICISA</p>\r\n<p>offers, listed on the website, the E-Learning module would simply provide links to:<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; * Transcripts from prior classes<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; * Videos of classes where available<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; * Audio of classes where available</p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;Existing E-Learning Content Management Systems (CMS) offer many features out of the box. It</p>\r\n<p>would be best to spend some time exploring these and selecting the best one. This will be done BY NC for</p>\r\n<p>ICISA and since only open source CMS''s will be considered there will be no cost associated with this in terms</p>\r\n<p>of development, only integration costs will be incurred.</p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;Some preliminary research at the proposal stage yielded the following information about Moodle a</p>\r\n<p>leading open source E-Learning CMS. A brief description is provided below:</p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;Moodle is an Open Source Course Management System (CMS), also known as a Learning</p>\r\n<p>Management System (LMS) or a Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). It has become very popular among</p>\r\n<p>educators around the world as a tool for creating online dynamic websites for their students. To work, it needs</p>\r\n<p>to be installed on a web server somewhere, either on one of your own computers or one at a web hosting</p>\r\n<p>company.<br />What is Moodle?<br />The focus of the Moodle project is always on giving educators the best tools to manage and promote learning,</p>\r\n<p>but there are many ways to use Moodle:</p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;Moodle has features that allow it to scale to very large deployments and hundreds of thousands of</p>\r\n<p>students, yet it can also be used for a primary school or an education hobbyist. <br />Many institutions use it as their platform to conduct fully online courses, while some use it simply to augment</p>\r\n<p>face-to-face courses (known as blended learning). <br />&nbsp;Many of our users love to use the many activity modules (such as Forums, Wikis, Databases and so</p>\r\n<p>on) to build richly collaborative communities of learning around their subject matter (in the social constructionist</p>\r\n<p>tradition), while others prefer to use Moodle as a way to deliver content to students (such as standard SCORM</p>\r\n<p>packages) and assess learning using assignments or quizzes.</p>\r\n<p>The above information on Moodle was provided to demonstrate what is available; however at this stage we will</p>\r\n<p>not decide to go with any particular brand, rather several will be evaluated before the final choice is made.</p>\r\n<p><br />V)&nbsp; Interactive Features:</p>\r\n<p>Since ICISA has so many batches of domestic and international students coming in for training year after year,</p>\r\n<p>batch after batch, a natural idea is to cerate an online community of ICISA alumni. This has many benefits and</p>\r\n<p>synergies:<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;1) Networking among alumni<br />&nbsp;2) The ability to provide alumni with refresher material through the e-learning module<br />&nbsp;3) Improve the overall profile of the ICISA organization</p>\r\n<p>Two relevant features come to mind:<br />&nbsp;1) E-Newsletter: The E-newsletter allows the organization to maintain a list of email addresses and</p>\r\n<p>send newsletters out to them periodically. This serves to pull alumni and trainees to the website and also keep</p>\r\n<p>them informed about new courses and activities at the Alma Mater. Special e-newsletter software called PHP</p>\r\n<p>list will be installed which will enable ICISA to manage their newsletters very efficiently.<br />&nbsp;2) Bulletin Board/Forum: A forum module is very important as it will foster a sense of community at</p>\r\n<p>the ICISA website and alumni and other stake holders who are interested in the website can interact with each</p>\r\n<p>other. The forum will be moderated and will allow users to create threads and have discussions regarding</p>\r\n<p>topics of interest.</p>', ''),

Mr. Hari Shankar Singhania, a leading industrialist is the present Chairperson of the Governing Board. Initially the Foundation was named Family Planning Foundation and focused on supporting Family Planning initiatives with an aim of population stabilization and improving quality of lives of people. However in the light of evolving ideas and understanding of population stabilization and its interrelations with socio-economic and gender equity factors, the Foundation broadened its perspective and spectrum of activities on population and sustainable development. An appropriate indication of this is the change of name in 1993 from Family Planning Foundation to Population Foundation of India. Being a pioneer organization for funding and promoting population related activities in the country, the Foundation endeavors to address the critical issues of population, health and sustainable development for better quality of life by increased access to services, capacity building at various levels and promoting advocacy programs.</span></p>', '<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">Timeline:</span></p>\r\n<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">&nbsp;</span></p>\r\n<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>The entire PFI catalog will be made online.

Therefore the web site that is to be designed must emphasize a hierarchy of information. New Concept (NC) will work with PFI to enable them to create a hierarchy which will translate into the top level menu on the home page with sub menu items that will pop out. This is of utmost importance if better dissemination of up to date information is an objective, because users on the internet have a very limited attention span. Therefore it is important that the most important information be displayed right up front on the home page in the form of the top level menu items. Information of secondary importance should then be available in one click and reference information can be buried further in the web site. This prioritization of content happens when the client provides their content in a hierarchical fashion. NC will guide the client on how to do this, though the client will ultimately be responsible for providing the content in this manner. </span></p>\r\n<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">&nbsp;</span></p>\r\n<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">Another stated objective is "To ensure ease of navigation, interaction and interfacing". The design process in developing the website is not only about making it more appealing, visually, but also functionally. After the redesign, the website should function better and this is accomplished by thinking through the navigation and flow of the website. This is accomplished primarily by creating appropriate menu systems that are well thought through. </span></p>\r\n<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">&nbsp;</span></p>\r\n<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">A search engine will be provided that will provide a full text search for all material on the web site.

Mr. Hari Shankar Singhania, a leading industrialist is the present Chairperson of the Governing Board. Initially the Foundation was named Family Planning Foundation and focused on supporting Family Planning initiatives with an aim of population stabilization and improving quality of lives of people. However in the light of evolving ideas and understanding of population stabilization and its interrelations with socio-economic and gender equity factors, the Foundation broadened its perspective and spectrum of activities on population and sustainable development. An appropriate indication of this is the change of name in 1993 from Family Planning Foundation to Population Foundation of India. Being a pioneer organization for funding and promoting population related activities in the country, the Foundation endeavors to address the critical issues of population, health and sustainable development for better quality of life by increased access to services, capacity building at various levels and promoting advocacy programs.</span></p>', '<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">Timeline:</span></p>\r\n<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">&nbsp;</span></p>\r\n<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>The entire PFI catalog will be made online.

New Concept will also provide support in the sending out of the quarterly newsletter. PFI would essentially create the content of the newsletter and email this and images to NC. NC will then layout the newsletter and send it back to PFI. Once PFI approves the newsletter, NC will send it out to all subscribed users.

Therefore the web site that is to be designed must emphasize a hierarchy of information. New Concept (NC) will work with PFI to enable them to create a hierarchy which will translate into the top level menu on the home page with sub menu items that will pop out. This is of utmost importance if better dissemination of up to date information is an objective, because users on the internet have a very limited attention span. Therefore it is important that the most important information be displayed right up front on the home page in the form of the top level menu items. Information of secondary importance should then be available in one click and reference information can be buried further in the web site. This prioritization of content happens when the client provides their content in a hierarchical fashion. NC will guide the client on how to do this, though the client will ultimately be responsible for providing the content in this manner. </span></p>\r\n<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">&nbsp;</span></p>\r\n<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">Another stated objective is "To ensure ease of navigation, interaction and interfacing". The design process in developing the website is not only about making it more appealing, visually, but also functionally. After the redesign, the website should function better and this is accomplished by thinking through the navigation and flow of the website. This is accomplished primarily by creating appropriate menu systems that are well thought through. </span></p>\r\n<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">&nbsp;</span></p>\r\n<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">A search engine will be provided that will provide a full text search for all material on the web site.

The dynamic sections will be powered by a Content Management Change (CMS) that will allow for quick and easy updates that can be done by PFI themselves. </span></p>\r\n<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">&nbsp;</span></p>\r\n<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;">&nbsp;</span>A feedback section will be created.

New Concept (NC) will work with PFI to enable them to create a hierarchy which will translate into the top level menu on the home page with sub menu items that will pop out. This is of utmost importance if better dissemination of up to date information is an objective, because users on the internet have a very limited attention span.

Information of secondary importance should then be available in one click and reference information can be buried further in the web site. This prioritization of content happens when the client provides their content in a hierarchical fashion.
