Problem
Statement
The Triggers
#1 Excessive usage of paper
The process of writing letters includes drafting. Thus, not only one piece of paper will be
used along the process. To note, there are more than 70 active departments in the
institution. If one department produces 5 letters a day plus another one draft paper,
more than 700 papers will be needed. This will cost a lot of money and not good for
the environment to name few effects; deforestation, pollution as well as paper wastage.
Thus to support the university EcoCampus Transformation Plan, a solution where less or
zero paper usage for letter writing need to be implemented by the university.
#2 Inconsistency of format
Although there are official format provided by the Public Service Department as
mentioned before, the letter formatting is always inconsistent due to human error. This
will include the font, indent and spacing, header and footer format and so on. As an
established public university, the inconsistencies will affect the corporate look and
professionalism.
#3 Writing letter takes time
Although there are official format provided by the Public Service Department as
mentioned before, the letter formatting is always inconsistent due to human error. This
will include the font, indent and spacing, header and footer format and so on. As an
established public university, the inconsistencies will affect the corporate look and
professionalism.
#4 Developing new system takes time
System development can be a hard and time consuming process. As there is urgency
to develop the letter writing functions, a framework is needed. This framework should
support abstraction for easier code writing and debugging.
