FORENSIC DESIGN ASSESSMENTS

This task relates to a sequence of assessments that will be repeated across Chapters 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10. Select any example of a visualisation or infographic, maybe your own work or that of others. The task is to undertake a deep, detailed ‘forensic’ like assessment of the design choices made across each of the five layers of the chosen visualisation’s anatomy. In each case your assessment is only concerned with one design layer at a time.

For this task, take a close look at the data representation choices:

1. Start by identifying all the charts and their types
2. How suitable do you think the chart type choice(s) are to display the data? If they are not, what do you think they should have been?
3. Are the marks and, especially, the attributes appropriately assigned and accurately portrayed?
4. Go through the set of ‘Influencing factors’ from the latter section of the book’s chapter to help shape your assessment and to possibly inform how you might tackle this design layer differently
5. Are there any data values/statistics presented in table/raw form that maybe could have benefited from a more visual representation?

Risk management is one of the most important components in  empowering an organization to achieve its ultimate vision. With proper  risk management culture and knowledge, team members will be “speaking”  the same language, and they will leverage common analytical abilities to  identify and mitigate potential risks as well as exploit opportunities  in a timely fashion. In order to consolidate efforts, the existence of  an integrated framework is crucial. This is why an ERM is necessary to  the fulfillment of any organization’s goals and objectives.

In your final research project for the course, your task is to write a 7-10 page paper discussing the following concepts:

• Introduction
• Why should an organization Implement an ERM application?
• What are some key challenges and solutions to Implementing an ERM?
• What is Important for an effective ERM?
• Discuss at least one real organization that has been effective with implementing an ERM framework or /application.
• Conclusion, final thoughts for future research
• Recommendation

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

• Be approximately seven to ten pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page.
• Follow APA7 guidelines. Your paper should include an introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a conclusion.
• Support your answers with the readings from the course, the course  textbook, and at least ten scholarly journal articles to support your  positions, claims, and observations, in addition to your textbook. The  UC Library is a great place to find supplemental resources.
• Be clearly and well-written, concise, and logical, using excellent  grammar and style techniques. You are being graded in part on the  quality of your writing.

Business continuity planning is an expanded version of contingency planning that typically encompasses a more comprehensive and extended response plan for getting back to ‘business as usual’. In a well-formatted, highly-detailed research paper, address the need to contingency planning, ensuring to address the following items:

(1) Benefits of scenario events/planning.
(2) Questions to consider when implementing scenario planning.
(3) The common types of scenario planning.

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

1. The CEO’s Challenge
   Use the Week 3 Assignment Template to complete this assignment.
   Choose a company to base this paper on. You may use a current or former employer, but do not disclose anything confidential. Or, you can pick another organization if you are familiar with their internal (not customer-facing) information systems. You can disguise the organization and populate it with famous names. Made-up companies are problematic because of the amount of detail and realism they require.
   You’ve just left an all-hands meeting at this company. The CEO was very upset at the rise of shadow IT projects, a major indicator that the company’s internal information system has failed to meet its needs. Because the current information system is inadequate, inefficient, and outdated, the CEO is inviting everyone in the organization to propose a new operational, decision support, or enterprise information system to replace it. The executives have allocated $5 million to fund the most promising idea.
   This is your chance to make a difference in the company (not to mention your own career). Write your proposal as a memo that the entire C-suite will review. Include at least these points, in your own words, to be persuasive:
   1. Identify the main functions of your proposed information system and why they are important to the business.
   2. Describe what types of data your information system will hold and how data quality will be ensured.
   3. Explain how the old information system handles the functions you mentioned, the problems that occur, and why your information system will handle things better.
   4. Offer evidence of feasibility: Show that similar information systems have been built successfully and that they save more money than they cost.
   5. The executives are busy, so keep your memo to 1–4 pages and avoid any extraneous content.

A project’s Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and Gantt chart provide structure for a project. In this week’s assignment you develop both the WBS and Gantt chart for a fictitious organization. The Manage Your Health, Inc (MYH) scenario will be used in the weekly assignments for the rest of the course.

Review the Manage Your Health Scenario and follow the directions below for completing a WBS and Gantt chart.

Develop a work breakdown structure (WBS) for the project. Break down the work to Level 3 or Level 4, as appropriate. Use the Work Breakdown Structure Template and Work Breakdown Structure example in this text as guides. Upload the WBS in list form. The WBS should be based on the information that would be in a project scope of this scenario. You can review your project plan from Wk 1. 

Create a Gantt chart using the WBS you developed with Microsoft Excel or another software of your choice and approved by your instructor. Do not enter any durations or dependencies. 

Submit 2 deliverables: the WBS and Gantt Chart. 

Read the case study “Teloxy Engineering (A)” on page 948 attached and answer the corresponding questions on the same page.

Questions

1. Using the expected value, is it economically better to make or buy the component?

2. Strategically thinking, why might management opt for other than the most economical choice?
