Risk Management
Risk Consequences Likelihood Impact Mitigation Strategy
Team is unfamiliar with technologies used. Project will be potentially delayed due to incorrect estimates. High High Team members will research and guide each others. Project manager will allocate more time to this task.
Delay in development due to downtime of server. Front-end and IBM BPM implementation not possible if the server is down. Low High Coordinate with the client on a regular basis to modify the schedule if required.
Failure to factor in minor coding tasks due to lack of experience. Project will be potentially delayed as these minor tasks need to be performed. Medium Medium PM has to work closely with the Back-End and front-end lead developers and bridge the gap between business process and technical components.

Quality of Product

Intermediate Deliverables

There should be some evidence of work.

Key Findings:

  • Group A participants feel that the new interface is a big improvement from the previous version.
  • Group A participants feel that the new version provides a more comprehensive flow of the Trade Finance process and its components.
  • Group A participants have on average 25% better performance compared to their performance in a previous user test.
  • Group A participants have on average 15% better performance compared to the performance of Group B on average.
  • All participants found the glossary to be really useful for referencing to the definitions.
  • Group B participants do not face the issues that Group A faced in the previous user tests and on average have a 10% better performance for the same processes.
  • 12.5% of Group B participants felt that the constant movement between the portal and IBM BPM was confusing
  • All participants find individual components of the application easy to use.


User Test 5

Objective : Heuristic Evaluation of the built application.

The tasks assigned can be found here: A3XY User Test 5 Plan

Demographic

Users Students
Number of Users 8
Venue SOE CR 3.4


Brief information on the participants:

  • Have basic knowledge of Trade Finance from prior study


Goals:

  • Students should be able to navigate around the website easily
  • Students should understand the requirements for various input fields without additional help
  • Students should find the application visually appealing


Results:

  • Rating based on the student’s experience while navigating the website where 1 is hard and 5 is easy
A3xy UT5 result1.png










  • Rating based on clarity of requirements for input fields
A3xy UT5 result2.png










  • Rating based on visual appeal of the website
A3xy UT5 result3.png










Key Findings:

  • In general, participants find it easy to navigate around that website. However, some participants still take some time to understand the jump from trade portal to trade operations
  • Participants are able to understand the requirement for all input fields easily.
  • Participants find the trade portal visually appealing but there is still room for improvement.
  • Some participants feel a requirement for a feature that show a summary of their lc transactions.

Reflection

Client's View

" Using this new application, I will be able to more effectively teach Trade Finance to my MITB class. The hands-on use of the tool will help to drive home the main learning points of the course.The tool functions nearly like a “real” Trade Finance system a bank might use, and it implements industry standard message formats, eg; SWIFT and ISO. This is the first FYP project that I am aware of that implements a BPM engine, and it would be useful to demo the application in PMSB. Ngee Ann Poly will also use this application to support their Financial Informatics Diploma course. " - Professor Alan, Chief Architect for SMU tBank
