Risks

The Capstone Experience Team Meijer Project Plan 14

Generating the shopping list

• How can we create a list that is relevant and helpful?

• Mitigation: Brainstorming ideas on what the most effective solution is

• Status: Met with Meijer and decided that the customer’s most frequently bought items during the current season will be displayed on the list

Learning iOS

• Group members have little experience programming iOS applications

• Mitigation: Using resources including internet tutorials and classmates

• Status: Team members have begun researching the basics in iOS applications

Access to Meijer’s information

• Meijer is unable to provide us with access to a lot of their databases

• Mitigation: Begin working and keep in touch about other info we may need

• Status: A store delta with product information and also some dummy mPerksaccounts are in the works
