Boston University Scheduling System for Dentist Feasibility Report
Description
Please review the instructions below to complete this task and my topic is “Selecting Scheduling System for Dental Clinic”
WHAT:
- Research and write an 8+ page Feasibility Report that offers a specific solution to a defined business-related problem. This can be a company that you worked at or a company that you read about in the news media.
HOW:
- Use the steps in process writing to determine the problem and the solution that will be described in this assignment.
Example business-specific problems:
- Facebook selling users’ private information (without their consent) to Cambridge Analytica.
Volkswagen’s automobile emissions scandal.
- Fox News’ firing of Bill O’Reilly.
Adidas’ insensitive Boston Marathon email.
United Airlines’ removal of a passenger.
Harambe the gorilla at the Cincinnati Zoo
Here are some questions to consider before drafting the report:
What is the specific problem you will discuss in your Feasibility Report?
Have the problem and solution been narrowed in scope to be described within the limits of this paper’s page count?
What action do you want to convince the audience to do/accept?
Will the report attempt to solve an internal organizational problem?
Who is the target audience?
Will the Feasibility Report be addressed from one department in the organization to another? Or will it be from an individual to a department within the organization?
Who has the power to approve the recommendations in your report?
What research findings will you need?
How much background information will be needed to ensure the audience understands the problem and the need for solution?
What specific research findings will best support your description of the problem and your proposed recommendations for change?
As you develop your Feasibility Report for this course, keep in mind the final draft of the assignment must consider only a single, feasible solution and apply APA citation style.
- Rhetorical Structure: The Feasibility Report must contain these required sections:
- Title/cover page
- Table of Contents
- Abstract
- Introduction (overview, background)
- purpose of report
problems that motivated report
person who initiated report
- Discussion (body, findings)
- criteria upon which recommended solution will be based
- data/research findings
- analysis of data against criteria
- Conclusion
- summary giving significance of findings and drawing conclusion based on data/findings in report
- recommendation for next steps or course of action to be taken based on discussion in report
- References
- A Peer Review session is scheduled for the advanced draft of this assignment; participation in Peer Review as a reviewer and reviewee is required. Further details about Peer Review will be provided at a later time.
- WHY: The Feasibility Report is an informative, analytical business document that uses research to persuade an audience to accept and/or implement a particular solution in response to a defined issue or need. Feasibility Reports are most commonly designed to do one or more of the following:
communicate a recommended solution from one business or department to another;
communicate a recommended solution from an individual to a business or department;
solve an internal organizational problem.
- This assignment allows you to demonstrate understanding of rhetorical appeals and definitions used in this type of business communication. It reinforces knowledge of writing as a process in which personal and collaborative skills are used in service of substantive revision.
