WILMONT’S PHARMACY CASE STUDY

16 June 2020

Project Description Wilmont’s Pharmacy is secretly considering delivering prescriptions by flying drone.
DroneTech to create a safe and easy way to deliver the products by creating a system,
which will provide customers with the option to have their prescriptions and drugstore
items delivered to them through flying drones.
Project Purpose The purpose of this project is forDroneTech to provide the drone technology as well as
the drone piloting and delivery systems, but will customize its systems and business
process to conform to Wilmont’s requirements This will create a more efficient way for
people to receive their products.
Scope/boundaries Wilmont Pharmaceuticals will need to create modifications to the existing system for
online order entry to allow customers in the San Francisco area to register their
willingness to have drone delivery of their orders by a means of online entry or
smartphone entry.
The system will contain a segment to allow Wilmont’s management to approve the
customers and send confirmation for this service.
The system should provide a means of communication electronically through
email online and mobile alerts as the customer requests. There will need to be an
Interface to the DroneTech Corporation for its order entry, delivery confirmation and
mobile application software. Wilmont will develop security options for all systems that
will safeguard the data as it is stored within the company, and as it is exchanged with
DroneTech.
The system modifications will collect information from the customers who are
approved in the San Francisco area allowing them to receive their drugstore items and
prescriptions by drone delivery.
The information stored in the system will be used to create reports for Wilmont’s
management to provide information on sales, customer reactions and key performance
indicators that senior management will define to help improve overall quality and
performance of the system.
The system will provide customers with the option to have their prescriptions and
drugstore items delivered to them through flying drones. Wilmont Pharmaceuticals is
joining with DroneTech to create a safer and easier way to deliver its products by taking
advantage of this opportunity. This will create a more efficient way for people to
receive their products. By using the old system and having DroneTech use their
technology to create a less costly means of delivery and attract more customers in the
area creating more profit.

Assumptions and In Scope
constraints • This section identifies any limitation that must be taken into consideration prior to
the initiation of the project.
• Project initiation June 16 2020.
• Must use existing infrastructure.
• Only affects four local stores based out of San Francisco.
Out of Scope
• No hardware, servers, workstations or other network infrastructure will be
required.
• Ongoing system maintenance scheduling or planning after the prototype is
implemented will not be a part of the project schedule or plans.
Risks
References DroneTech will handle piloting the drones and delivery of the products. DroneTech
already has a processes that handle order entry, delivery confirmation, and a mobile
app on the DroneTech side, but these need to be customized for Wilmont’s so that
customers don’t see these as two separate companies.
