1.3.Recommendation
The approach for this recommendation should be, all the supervisors and the proctors
should be trained for the new system. For 6 months, both the systems will be active so as to
make the users and the supervisors familiar with the new proposed system. This will be
implemented in three phases; the duration of the first phase will be two months. The users
will get introduced in first phase. In the second phase, it will be compulsory for the user, to
use the new system. In the third phase the bugs and the fixes will be made based on the
feedback from the users.
1.4.Justification
Since starting this system, the approach has been without using any online-based system;
even the swap board used in this system is from a third party. This is only used for swapping
the users. The new approach will make everything online this will help in better traceability
of a user, his information like who is doing what when where. This approach is also aligned
with best strategy and objectives since it uses newer technology to improve the way we do
business by replacing the older system. While other alternatives and the status quo were
analyzed, this Project was selected for proposal in this business case because it provides the
best opportunity to realize benefits for the greatest improvement in efficiency and costreduction.
70% cost saving in project estimated budget. 60% immediate increase in proctor work efficiency in daily manner. 80% immediate decrease in the amount of time taken to sign in a guest. 98% reduction in maintenance due to paper elimination (GoGreen initiative).
Effective increase in NUPD communication.

3. PROBLEM DEFINITION
3.1.Problem Statement
Northeastern university has on campus Residential Security Office (RSO) whose primary
responsibility is access control of the more than 40 residence halls . RSO manages its employeesby a third party web based software to assign the employees shifts which has its own
disadvantages including security, shift blocking, and improper scheduling process. The manual
process of data fill ing and submiss ion tasks is involved in proctor hiring process. The major
challenges faced by the RSO are proctor management, workstation management, shift
management, Cost and Staffing Management, Human Resource management and Incident
Management. Poor organization of shifts among available proctors, Shift blocking in Swap board,
No proper break management are not well managed by the existing third party software.
Proctors get manual write-ups based on different rule violations which may include superfluous
conditions. This increases restriction on proctors and encourages high attrition rate at RSO.As a
result, to keep up with the workload RSO staff management keeps the resource pool large. This
results in poor management, dissatisfaction of proctors and supervisors, insecurity of jobs and
weak work ethics.
Goals and Objectives:
To develop software which clock-in at the arrival and 'clock-out when proctors leave or
when they take the lunch break. This will lead to effective distribution of breaks and effective
resource management.
Retrieve guest details and Black list entries that are not welcome back while trying to make
an attempt to residence halls from the database.
To propose a solution for better handling of emergency situations and disciplinary actions.
To develop software which can eliminate draw backs of existing third party software like
shift conflicts and swap board blocking.
To redefine existing manual process of proctor hiring process and writing works by proctors
during residence hall monitoring.
Digital Memos are available in dashboard for every proctor as per their respective station.

3.2.Organizational Impact
1. Impact on Manager
a. Hiring Process:
Instead of paper-based application process, manager can go through all the application easily
through an application portal. The application portal can help manager sort appropriate
candidate as per the requirement. Also, it would help RSO to follow its rules regarding
applicants. For example, we can avoid first semester student applying by putting constraint in
the web-application itself.
IMPACT: Transparency in Hiring Process
b. Staff Management:
After every semester, a number ofstudents graduation leads to a necessity of new proctors.
But, most of the times students fail to disclose their graduation which leads to an incorrect
number of active proctor accounts (Which are used as buffer). The portal will link Northeastern
University Students portal with RSO portal in order to identify and close the accounts of
graduating student.
By getting who will be able to work next semester, RSO can get to know about how many
proctors it should hire for the upcoming semester. This will allow RSO to distribute the shifts
properly and assign each proctor proper amount of shifts. Managers can also get to know about a proctors performance easily. Through the web
portal, manager can get to know about a proctors write-up history and his performance.
IMPACT: Proper Staff Management
2. Impact on Supervisor:
a. Incident Management:
Currently, supervisor manage all the incidents in an excel sheet which is very inconvenient.The new portal will allow all the proctors s itting at the station to report incident directly. It will
not only reduce work of supervisor but also increase reliability and efficiency
By converting paper-based write up system to an online portal, assigning write-ups will be
easy and supervisor will be able to record it accurately.

Residential Safety Office (GoGreen Initiative)
Business Case v 1.0 Page 9
The new system will allow each proctor to directly start/stop the break. The relief proctor
will no longer need to call RSO in order to register the break timings. Also, it would make it more
efficient and reliable compared to current excel sheet system.
2. Proctor:
a. Workstation assignment:
Currently, each proctor has to go one hour early in order to get assigned to a workstation.
Using the new system, proctors will be assigned their respective stations automatically, online
only which will save an hour.
The proctor will be able to go to their workstation directly w/o going to RSO station. They
can get signed in directly by swiping the card at the particular station
IMPACT: time and effort saving.
Hardware/Software: In addition to the workforce impact, the online software need to be
installed on the local server and domain name also be needed to publish the website. Server
related hardware cost is included in the software deployment to keep the website up and
running all times for staff.

3.3.Technology Migration
Technology migration occurs when changes require the organization switch to a different
technology. Beyond the risks in technology migration, four key must be considered when
attempting any IT system migration.
The following is a high level overview of each phase:
Phase 1: Readiness of the existing IT infrastructure, which consists of the servers, storage
networks, and security technologies. New IT infrastructure must be purchased and make sure
that every computer works well.
Phase 2: Look at primary databases and determine if they are sufficient or need to be upgraded
or migrated too.
Phase 3: Check any custom applications running. They may have to be revamped or replaced or
otherwise modernized
Phase 4: Check with RSO packaged software providers to make sure their applications will run
with new system.
IBM has its Migration Factory which has some combination of tools, testing and assessment
methodologies, and professional services to help migrate to technologies.
3.4.Project Overview: The RSO management project will provide detail for how this project will address the current
Northeastern residential security business problem. The overview consists of project
description, goals and objective, project performance criteria and major milestones.
To ensure that only authorized residents and their guests enter University residences,Northeastern University provides uniformed security coverage twenty-four hours a day,
seven days a week at the main entrances of the large residences. All students who enter the
large residences must show their NEU ID Cards to the proctors each time they enter.
When someone visits a resident of a large residence, they must be checked against thebanned list and entered into guest details. All guests must leave a photo identification card
at the security desk. No more than three guests per student are permitted at any time.

Business Case v 1.0 Page 11
Proctors can fill time availability and can pick their shift. Up-to-date staff availabilityinformation, no conflicts due to overlapping shifts, no scheduling conflicts will help to
increase proctors satisfaction. Unfortunately RSO has lot of scope for improvement such as
automating the process and to increase proctors satisfaction.
3.5.Project description:
The mandate of the Residential Security Office, Northeastern University, is to improveworkstation management, shift management, proctor management and incident
management.
The manual process of data filling and submission tasks has to be automated. New solutionhas to be defined for effectively handling shift distribution to proctors and supervisors.Efficient Algorithm has been defined to prevent shift conflicts and swap board blocking.
Better handling of emergency situations and disciplinary actions by connecting application
with NUPD.
Proctors will be able to add their breaks during each shift. Memos, Banned list and sign insheets can be viewed online which will eliminate poor management, dissatisfaction of
proctors and supervisors.
The products the project will produce are: a DVD, an information kit for new users andsoftware package. The tools that the organization will use to measure the results of the
project are: surveys, pilot tests and focus groups involving proctors, supervisors, Residential
Assistant and managers.
3.6.Goals and Objectives
To develop software which clock-in at the arrival and 'clock-out when proctors leave orwhen they take the lunch break. This will lead to effective distribution of breaks and effective
resource management.
Retrieve guest details and Black list entries that are not welcome back while trying to makean attempt to residence halls from the database.
To propose a solution for better handling of emergency situations and disciplinary actions.

4. STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT
The Res idential Safety Offices primary responsibility is access control of the residence halls. Access
control is achieved with a comprehensive package of "people protecting people," while utilizing a
computerized electronic access control system and various alarms.
We aimed the following key factors which can be achieved using respective module of the system.
1. Security: RSO being the primary center for security of all the residential halls, the systemaims to improve this by providing a better solution which guides proctors and by intuitively
indicating accesibility and thus reducing scope of any human error.
The system also provides an interface to quickly access all the information about anyone
entering the residence hall at a particular time.
2. Efficient Staff: In any organization, the efficiency is measured by its staff. Throughperformance management, we not just encourage them to perform well, but managers can
get a clear idea about all the proctors performance.
Also, predictive HR management helps manager to shut down unused proctor accounts and
also estimating required proctors for the upcoming term.
3. Accurate Sign-in: To ensure security, it is very important to preserve exact timing of guestsign-in. And also to retrive the guests being signed quikly is very important. The new system
will provide access to all information very intuitevely.
4. Go Green: The system will eliminate need of papers and will store everything online. Andthus saving about 100,000 papers per annum. It also helps organizaion to save cost by notusing papersheets.
5. Time Efficiency: The system allows everything remote and thus reducing a lot of time andavoid confusion drawn through a lot of conversation.

5. COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS
Cost benefit analysis in this project takes a different turn where mutual coordination of
resources and the online website for daily work is crucial. Major costs are involved in the day to
day work where most of the paper is involved and extra resources are kept for the printing,
sorting and analyzing the content of all the sign-in sheets filled by the proctors.
Also in this analysis some benefits are not cost related but work related which makes work
easier and reduces the efforts which are required by each proctor and supervisor.
Some of those cases are as follows
1) Making the proctor sign-in and sign-out online
2) Searching for the banned list based on the database content
3) Swiping the cards of the guest with any bar code.
4) Writing the detailed incident report and storing it in web based software for future use.

Business Case v 1.0 Page 21
These changes will save little cost in RSO new implementation but it will have a long term impact
which will in turn change the functionality of the RSO.
Major cost savings are included though GoGreen initiative. This will allow eliminating all the
paper work which currently involved being available online.

6. ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS
The following alternative options have been considered to address the business problem. These
alternatives were not selected for a number of reasons which are also explained below:
Alternative Analysis Reason for not selecting alternative
Consider a different alternative COTS
solution for web based solution
Significantly higher costs and may not
meet all the needs.
Alternative Analysis Reason for not selecting alternative
System algorithms with auto shift
assignment
Might not be convenient for all the
proctors to pick up a shift allotted to
them.Alternative Analysis Reason for not selecting alternative
Outsource the security services to outside
agencies
It is better to give opportunity to the
university students instead of paying and
outsourcing the services.

7.6.1. DATA STORAGE
If the data are stored electronically, the data should be regularly backed up on disc;a hard copy should be made of particularly important data; relevant software must
be retained to ensure future access, and special attention should be given to
guaranteeing the security of electronic data.
Protect systems and individual files data with login and passwords. Manage access rights (in the case of computer system administrators not involved in
the project their access rights could be limited).
Regularly update virus protection to prevent vulnerability of data. Limit physical access to equipment and storage media (for example, in the case of
data stored on a computer using a stand-alone computer may be secure than anetworked, computer).
Accurate data removal from old hardware and certification that the data wasremoved.
Ensure data recoverability in case of emergencies. Regularly update electronic storage media to avoid outdated storage/retrieval
devices.
Backup multiple copies in secured multiple locations. Encrypt fi les when wireless devices are used, and keep track of wireless connectivity
to prevent accidental file sharing.
Record date and time when a piece of electronic data was originally recorded toprevent alteration or manipulation at a future date.
7.6.2. DATA DE-IDENTIFICATION
Data not to be De-identified
1. Details of proctor on shift2. Details of supervisor on shift3. Details about RA on shift4. Working hours of proctors, RAs and supervisor
7/30/2019 Residential Safety Office Business Case
33/74
Residential Safety Office (GoGreen Initiative)
Business Case v 1.0 Page 33
7.6.3. DATA VALIDATION
Identify duplicate records and merge or group together related information to get aunified view for business.
Allowed character checks that only expected characters are present in a field. Forexample a numeric field may only allow the digits 0-9, the decimal point and perhaps
a minus s ign or commas. A text field such as a personal name might disallow
characters such as < and >, as they could be evidence of a markup-based security
attack. An e-mail address might require at least one @ sign and various other
structural details.
Consistency checks fields to ensure data in these fields corresponds, e.g., If Title ="Mr.", then Gender = "M".
Data type checks the data type of the input and give an error message if the inputdata does not match with the chosen data type, e.g., In an input box accepting
numeric data, if the letter 'O' was typed instead of the number zero, an error
message would appear.
Format or picture check Checks that the data is in a specified format (template), e.g.,dates have to be in the format DD/MM/YYYY.
Regular expressions should be considered for this type of validation. Logic check Checks that an input does not yield a logical error, e.g., an input value
should not be 0 when there will be a number that divides it somewhere in a
program.
Presence check Checks that important data is actually present and have not beenmissed out, e.g., customers may be required to have their telephone numbers listed.
Range check checks that the data lie within a specified range of values, e.g., themonth of a person's date of birth should lie between 1 and 12.

Business Case v 1.0 Page 34
7.6.4. DATA AND USER ACCESS
Object-Level Security has to be set to limit proctors from viewing timesheet approvalsheet of manager. Supervisor should see data related to proctor, RAs and residents.
Field-Level Security should be set for proctors when they are viewing banned list. Record-Level Security has to be set for proctor details. Each Proctor s hould be able
to view only their personal information.
7.7. AUDITING
Software Quality Assurance Audit should assess technical quality, form and functionwith the aim of improving aspects such as ease-of use, reliability, security and
performance. Software Compliance Audit should audit, the type that can produce anxiety, measures
softwares level of compliance with regulatory mandates. A body outside of the
company such as an industry watchdog or government regulator should conduct
compliance audits.
Software Licensing Audit can be audited as part of Software Asset Management or RiskManagement practices to determine where the software is distributed and how it isused. A license audit may be required to impose greater controls or find cost savings.
The audit may seek to enforce software copyright protections. It can be mandated by
the courts as part of a legal dispute. It can be ordered by risk managers who seek to
determine the organizations level of exposure from continued use of the software.
7.8. USABILITY
The system should be understandable, learnable, operable and attractive.
Understandability
Interface elements (e.g. menus) should be easy to understand For a walk up and purchase or use system, the purpose of the system should be
easily understandable
7/30/2019 Residential Safety Office Business Case

Residential Safety Office (GoGreen Initiative)
Business Case v 1.0 Page 35
Learnability
The user documentation and help should be complete The help should be context sensitive and explain how to achieve common tasks The system should be easy to learnOperability
The interface actions and elements should be consistent Error messages should explain how to recover from the error Undo should be available for most actions Actions which cannot be undone should ask for confirmation The system be customizable to meet specific user needs A style guide should be usedAttractiveness
The screen layout and color should be appealing
7.9. RELIABILITY
Software reliability extends across the entire development cycle. Be focused on how services are implemented and look for possible problems within the
application.
Developers and operations staff should be properly trained in architecture and lifecyclemanagement practices. Create a team culture where reliability is considered critical.
Training and education should be provided where possible.
Use a Robust Operating System. For example, Windows servers often contain thefollowing features Workload Balancing, Storage management, Memory Protection,
Diagnostic and Recovery tools, Installation protection, etc.
Remove Failure Points from the Application Design
All mission-critical data should provide monitoring data. Invest in Quality Software Engineering Processes Coding standards and programming practices should be shared across the business.

Completed source code should be reviewed by peers for correctness, performance,reliability issues
The use of a consistent, repeatable, formal software development method always leadsto more reliable systems.
7.9.1. PERFORMANCE
95% of ALL visible pages for normal customers respond in 8 seconds or less , includinginfrastructure, excluding back ends.
The software must support 8000 customers which will on a busy day generate 4500customer interactions.
The System should have downtime of maximum 88 hours (i.e. 1 % downtime) in a year. Response for user login must be no greater than four seconds throughout the day, with
fewer than 3.4 errors per million transactions.
7.9.2. SUPPORTABILITY
The Customer Advisor Help desk will support users of from 09:00 to 17:00 daily. The ability to change the system to deal with additional international conventions such
as languages, or number formats, styles should be done.
The average time needed to port the application from Internet Explorer to NetscapeNavigator shall not exceed 6 person weeks.
The MTTR shall be 1 day averaged over a 1 year.

Business Case v 1.0 Page 37
7.10.INTERFACES
The server module must integrate with a dbms through the java databaseconnectivity (JDBC) interface.
The server must run within a web server available for windowsnt, using dynamiccontent technology (e.g. jsp, cgi/Perl and cold fusion).
7.10.1.USER INTERFACES
Ensure compatibility with the High-Contrast option. Use text fields (usually with a label) when the user may type in anything they want. use lists when there are many fixed choices (too many for radio buttons);
all choices vis ible on screen at once use combo boxes when there are many fixed choices; don't take up screen real estate by showing them all at once use a slider or spinner for a numeric value
7.10.2.HARDWARE INTERFACES
System should be implemented in a hardware-independent fashion and should notrely on any particular hardware interfaces expect for the power.
The computer system must be able to be plugged into a power source. While thismay seem obvious, power is not common at all before the residence hall.
7.10.3.SOFTWARE INTERFACES
The System should use oracle database to save the proctor information, write ups,
memos and more. To implement the project we have chosen Java language for its more
interactive support. Since this is a web based project, System should run in all type of
browsers without major changes.

Residential Safety Office (GoGreen Initiative)
Business Case v 1.0 Page 38
7.10.4.COMMUNICATION INTERFACES
The new system will transfer data, which requires an Internet connection. There arealternatives to Internet connectivity, but due to time constraints we will make the
assumption that the resident hall has Internet.
When the "proctor" user class is included, user should allow communicating viastandard email and via the World Wide Web. No other communications interfaces
are mandated.
7.10.5.DATA MIGRATION INTERFACES
AS/LIDB-AS/LIDB Data Migration Interface is used in migration of data from existing
database to new database. It Support for descriptions, format, and encoding rules for
two new line elements (data items), and to add them to the aggregate of the logical data
model and associated requirements.
7.10.6.PURCHASEDCOMPONENTS
The System is developed in Windows platform. The System needs oracle database
server and web application server to run. All these components must have a warranty
with legal terms and issues.
7.10.7.LICENSINGREQUIREMENTS
In order to use the system, it should be licensed. Password must be protected, only
authenticated users can operate the system.
