Sponsor Requirement Change Log
Date	Milestones	Dataset	Feature	Feature Requirement (Before)	Feature Requirement (After)	Status	Status Description
06 Jan	Before Project Proposal	Cosmetics Brand	Vertical lift	Determine the type and quantity of SKUs that should be placed for muti level storage, and the lift space optimization.	NIL	NIL	NIL
			A,B,C classification	Development an algorithmn to sort SKUs into A,B,C classifications, based on their rate of movement (fast / slow moving).
			Dashboard	Develop a dashboard using Tableau for high level visualizatiion of warehouse process.
			Warehouse Utilization tool	To help employees understand fill and flow rate of the warehouse based on historical data, and also, determine pick rate of warehouse locations and identify most used and least used locations.
			Application development	Develop an application for long term sustainability use. This will allow client to continue analyzing new data via a uploading feature, even if the the project is over.
13 Jan	After Project Proposal	Medical & Duty Free Products	Vertical lift	Determine the type and quantity of SKUs that should be placed for muti level storage, and the lift space optimization.	NIL	Removed	Client wished to change focus too analysis on inbound and outbound data. Concerns was that number of shelves, stories and size of lift have not yet been finalized in the new warehouse.
			A,B,C classification	Development an algorithm to sort SKUs into A,B,C classifications, based on their rate of movement (fast / slow moving).	Use preassigned values to sort SKUs into A,B,C classifications.	Modified	Client wants control over changing the A,B,C classification values as he does not want to waste time asking help from his developers to change the logic of the algorithm.
			Dashboard	Develop a dashboard using Tableau for high level visualization of warehouse process.	Develop a dashboard using d3.js, SAS Enterprise Miner and JMP for high level visualization of warehouse process.	Modified	Client felt that Tableau was expensive and under the advice of Prof. Kam, the team suggest the use of d3.js, JMP and SAS Enterprise Miner to the client. D3.js will be used as it allows flexibility and customization of application by client. JMP and SAS Enterprise in this case, will be used to gain more in-depth analysis. These cannot be attained by Tableau.
			Warehouse Utilization tool	Based on historical data, help employees understand fill and flow rate of the warehouse. Based on historical data, determine pick rate of warehouse locations to identify most used and least used locations.	NIL	Remain	NIL
			Application development	Develop an application to integrate with the dashboard. This will allow employees to be able to view the dashboard from various devices like mobile phones.	NIL	Remain	NIL
29 Jan	After Project Proposal	Medical & Duty Free Products	A,B,C classification	Use preassigned values to sort SKUs into A,B,C classifications,based on their rate of movement (fast / slow moving).	Use preassigned values to sort SKUs into A,B,C classifications,based on their rate of movement (fast / slow moving). Inclusion of top 20 SKUs for visualization.	Modfied	The client's rationale of including the top 20 SKUs for visualization was because he understands that despite the classification of SKUs, there is still a high probability to have hundreds of categorical "A" SKUs. He would thus like to identify the top best performing SKUs.

Develop an application to integrate with the dashboard. This will allow employees to be able to view the dasboard from various devices like mobile phones. Integration of application with client's database.	Modified	As the client is looking into the possibility of eliminating the need for frequent upload of data, they would like to explore the possibility of integrating the team's application with the company's database to allow data to be pulled from the client's inhouse WMS.
