Case Based Examination

Pizza Store
A group of young university graduates set out to open their own company. They are all very keen
to start designing websites for different clients in Kampala City. Most of them have very good
HTML and CSS skills acquired at university. Upon opening their company in the City they
receive a client who is interested in setting up a website for his business that sells Pizza in the
area and is interested in having an online presence that help his clients order for Pizza, online in
the comfort of their homes or on their mobile devices. Currently orders of Pizza are kept in files
using papers and this has led to loss of information, insecurity and data redundancy. It is against
this background that a web based system for tracking Pizza orders will be developed that will
allow stake holders access orders immediately from anywhere in the country, provide security by
authentication and also reduce redundancy.
