CASE STUDY: HoneyBee Physiotherapy Centre

HoneyBee is a physiotherapy centre located at Subang Jaya, Selangor. It offers

various types of physiotherapy services to its customers such as neck and back pain,
shoulder, elbow and wrist pain, knee and ankle pain, post-operation rehabilitation,
sport physiotherapy and scoliosis and bracing. Currently the centre is using a manual
system to manage the appointment record, therapists’ schedule, customer record,
treatment record and billing record. With the increasing number of customers,
managing those records become difficult and risky. The owner, Mr. Jared, wish to
improve their current business process by implementing an information system to
provide a better management and service to his organization and customers.

The current business process as below:

All the appointments are managed by the centre receptionists. When the customers
call to book for an appointment, the receptionist will take their details, requested date
and time of the appointment. Then he/she will check with the therapist schedule to
confirm the appointment and update the therapist schedule. Once the appointment is
confirmed, on the day of the appointment, the customers will provide their name to
the receptionist to proceed with their therapy session.

For the therapists, by the end of each day, they need to check their schedule with the
receptionists to identify whether, they have a schedule or not for the next day. As the
therapists, they need to provide a treatment record on each session for each customer
that they have attended. The purpose of this treatment record is to monitor the types of
physiotherapy service and the customer’s progress.

For the billing, by the end of each treatment, the receptionists will populate the
calculation of the total bill that the customers need to pay. The items that will be
charge are depending on the physiotherapy service, therapist service charge, and
medications (if any).

Based on the current business process, your team are required to covert them into
processes to be involved in the system. Mr. Jared also, wish that he can monitor the
business operation and performance of the centre. He needs information such as the
sales record, customer record and other relevant information that will help him to
improve his business.

Part A – Group Component 55%
1) Introduction
This should include the scope and objectives for the proposed system.

2) Planning & Requirements Analysis

Schedule the project tasks in a Gantt chart with explanation. Record the
functional requirements and non-functional requirements.

3) Logical Design Part 1

Provide the outcome of the design using UML Use Case Diagram, and Class
Diagram with explanation of each diagram.

4) Physical Design
Design an interface for the proposed system, showing all of the main solutions
that you have suggested. The interface must be capture and document in the
system with explanation of each.

5) Implementation
A discussion of how the system will be implemented, such as hardware/software
requirement.

6) Prototype
Develop a complete prototype for the system. (NOTE: You are not required to
produce a fully functional program, such as inclusion of a database). Use the best
prototyping tools that can be used for your proposed system.

7) Conclusion
To conclude the project, stating its limitation, challenges and further
enhancement.

Part B – Individual Component 45%

8) Logical Design Part 2
Provide TWO (2) UML Activity Diagram based on proposed Use Case Diagram
in Logical Design Part 1 above with explanation of each diagram.

9) Methodology
