The system provides “ Gaza Mall” fast work process and save calculating bills, the system will be developed by team consists of two students taking system analysis and design course in spring 2013. The project will start in March 2013 and will end in May 2013. The potential problems related with the current existing system will be totally solved by this new system. 2.

2 This plan document is considered as base guideline for the subsequent phases of the system development which include: requirements, determination, design, implantation and installation. 3. 0 System Description3. 3 [main functionality]3. 4 Alternatives of developing this system include: Online registration system Purchasing package Develop for scratch3. 0 Feasibility Assessment4. 5 Economic AnalysisTo establish this system, we need to a number of basic requirements for the system works properly, including computers and other multiple devices as well as the need to create a database and system to handle, so we need to budget estimated at $ 5, 000. 4.

6 Technical AnalysisIn this issue, we need to discuss technical matters, including the specification of the equipment required, as well as specifications staff who will use those devices as well as the dangers technical facing the system, such as malfunctions that may occur to the system or the hardware or the database and methods address this failure and also must not forget that the way the system worksof important technical things to prevent errors. 4. 7 Operational AnalysisThere are several things to talk about in this area, including against the system of workloads and we’ll prepare a plan for the project include workflow optimally at all times of the project as well as the application carefully to stay away from mistakes and processing plan to confront any unexpected errors, on the other hand, the plan must be prepared to seize opportunities that may occur during work For example, a reduction in the price of devices which required to the project. 4. 8 Legal and Contractual Analysis In this issue , we must4. 9 Political Analysis4.
