IBM Project Proposal for UT Students: Creating a Business Intelligence Solution - Prof. El, Study Guides, Projects, Research of Introduction to Business Management

Ibm is looking for 2-6 motivated students to create a prototype business intelligence solution for product quality information using ibm enterprise products. Students will work with ibm engineers and subject matter experts to document requirements, architect a solution, and create a prototype. Required skills include server-side java programming, eclipse ide, fundamental relational database knowledge, and unix/linux. The project is expected to last 4-6 months.

Statement of Work - IBM Integrated Supply Chain Quality Engineering Business
Intelligence Solution and Web Portal
The IBM ISC Engineering team is looking for 2-6 highly motivated individuals to create
a prototype business intelligence solution for product quality information utilizing state
of the art technologies. The challenge is to present a large variety and quantity of product
quality information on a single web page in a portal environment such that it provides
immediate insight to the status of product quality throughout the supply chain while
considering a users role and preferences. The team of individuals will be responsible for
interacting with IBM engineers and subject matter experts to formulate and document
requirements, architect a solution, and create a prototype utilizing a variety of IBM
enterprise products such as Websphere, DB2, Rational and Lotus. A robust web based
portlet solution should include SOA like capabilities that interact with both relational and
cubed (OLAP) data sets. Individuals will receive valuable experience through
participating in a complex executive sponsored project in a large corporate environment,
getting hands-on experience with enterprise software, working with a diverse set of
skilled individuals including personnel from IBM Research and applying theoretical
concepts into solutions to solve real world problems.
Experience Required:
CS, MIS, CE, or IT
Strong server-side Java programming
Use of the Eclipse IDE
Fundamental relational database knowledge
Familiarity with Unix / Linux
Length of Project:
4-6 months

This looks really good. My only concern would be the scope of the project, but that can always be adjusted based on the time/skill level of the student team. My personal suggestion is for the project to be implemented as a web app driven by IBM WebSphere Application Server Community Edition + IBM DB2 Express-C. These tools are lighter- weight and simpler than the enterprise-strength versions. Also, we may want to work with sample data rather than any actual customer data if we want to avoid having to set up VPN accounts or signing NDA's. Let me introduce you to our "consulting principals" -- Eleanor Jordan and Sharon Dunn. They are key faculty members at UT McCombs Business School's MIS program and own the MIS 374 course. I would be happy to set up a conference call or meeting to help sync us on stakeholder expectations, if they agree this is the right kind of project for the MIS students to tackle. Let me know when you want to talk. /**************************************************
