Scope of the Project: Portal is a communications medium designed to increase

interaction between trading partners. Such portals enable suppliers to view in process invoices, enter invoices directly into the portal if desired and track their status throughout the payment process. The scope of the project is limited to all the employees and specific clients with certain privileges at various levels to access desired information. Different Modules to be covered and their functionalities are as follows. Module Name Login Module Function Providing Accessibility to users as per the role in the organization Auction Module Bulletin Board
Online auction to liquidate surplus goods easily. on-line interactive message board where participants conduct discussion on a set of topics by posting questions, comments and responses.

Directory of Companies

This is a listing of all registered associates of the B2B portal either by business category or by alphabetical order. An advanced search engine tool is incorporated in order to find a company based on data provided.

Content Management

To manage the learning documents, informative documents etc on a common organized platform

Transaction Module

To secure facilitate Transaction with various parties

Internal Messaging system

Elaborate Messaging System allows a participant of the B2B portal send and receive messages from other participants and the company.

Supplier Interaction Module

Providing various facilities for supplier uses

Client Interaction Module

Providing various facilities for client uses

Employee Module

Information Management system for Employee providing features like Dashboard etc.

Project Approach: Portals involves a strategic decision whether (1) to

implement and customize off-the-shelf systems related to proprietary processes, which means to stick to the homemade processes and systems or (2) to implement standardized technology giving industry-standards solutions that use XML standards to exchange data and messages, that supports standardized business processes. Mostly, decisions to implement one of the two alternatives are directed by a cost-benefit analysis. The implementation of alternative (2) is expected to lead to economies-of-scale in the business areas where standardized business processes could be implemented.

Past experience: As a part of Portal development, resources involved have

been successful in developing Portals for conglomerates involving huge number of suppliers, clients, third parties with complex requirements. We have experience of implementing portals in more than 30 companies from various sectors like Automobile, Constructions, eGov, HR etc.

Progress Report and Meetings

Weekly Progress report would be shared with the client detailing the progress made, issues faced, issues resolved, resolving issues and any clarification if required. During design phase, one resource would be working from client site and acting as single POC for both the parties.

Assumptions
Proposal takes into assumption the streamlined business process at client site which are to be automated using Portal System.

Terms of Agreement
1. In consideration of the charges to be paid by the Client as specified in the Proposal, Company will provide the Services. Where the Proposal indicates that a functional specification will be written that specification will supersede the Proposal. Both Company and Client will agree, in writing, any material changes to the Software or Services. 2. Where the parties agree that there should be acceptance testing of the Software, then after installation of the Software, the Client shall deliver test data and results expected to be achieved and the Client shall accept the Software immediately after the Software has correctly processed the test data by achieving the expected results. The Software shall not be deemed to

have incorrectly processed such test data by reason of any failure to provide any facility or function not specified in the Proposal or in any agreed functional specification. Repeat tests shall be undertaken at our discretion.

Project Plan
1. Introduction 1.1 Goal and Objectives: The main objective is to build a long lasting relationship with all suppliers to ensure strong communication and support in all areas of our business. The Supplier Portal enables the next generation of business partner collaboration by providing customized, partner-specific access, services, applications and tools all delivered securely to the end user's desktop through the public internet. 1.2 General Requirements Role-based access (functions and layout depend on role) Shared homepage or workspace Integrated security User configurable Administrator configurable Peer-to-peer functionality

2. Project Estimates 2.1 Estimation Techniques Assume that one has to deliver an end-to-end login module's functionality for an application. The time spent on the login functionality should include the corresponding time required for gathering the requirements, doing a requirement analysis, architecture inputs, form design, object/class design, implementing the business rules, data validation and storage, framework (i.e., code for login module's constants, enumerations, utilities), testing, debugging, deployment up to user acceptance, etc. Now, the estimator has to figure out how many man-hours it would take to complete the login module, keeping all these factors in mind. The sequence of work and dependencies should be considered as they do cause delays in completion. For example, form design should be done first (all the way up to acceptance by the customer), then object design (up to acceptance by the architect), followed by coding (for business rules, calculations, and data validations), internal testing, and user acceptance testing. A wise estimator would always take support from other people to understand the scope of work to do a given task.

5. Tracking and Control Mechanism 5.1 Quality Assurance Mechanisms Tight Change Management Extensive before implementation Design using Rapid Prototyping Close Contact with Clients, meeting every two weeks and regular email contacts 5.2 Change Management and Control For changes affect the user experiences we will have to notify all clients For changes that do not affect the user experiences we will notify a client representative Due the size of the team, internal control panel will be used. One member of the team suggests a change; it will need to be approved by the other two members Formal version numbering will be used. All version changes must be documented in a common document accessible to all team members before a new version number can be released. Version number will be structured as follows: <Major Release>.<Minor Release><Bug fix>
