Case study overview

“

- [Instructor] In this course, we are going to work through a case study that involves two fictitious companies, H+ Sport and Red30 Tech. Red30 Tech is a software development firm that is going to build a software for H+ Sport. H+ Sport offers health-related products and services. One of its services offers diet consulting to its customers through a panel of professional health coaches. H+ customers can register for this service and become H+ members. H+ then connects each member to a coach who then becomes the member's diet consultant. All members need to maintain a daily diet log in a paper notebook and their coaches then look at members' diet logs to make recommendations as needed. However, the coaches often feel constrained by paper-based diet logs as they are hard to analyze and to find nutritional trends in the data. Also, members often log incomplete data and whatever data they do log lacks any information about the nutrients and ingredients in their food items. To this purpose, H+ Sport has partnered with Red30 to build an application for members and coaches to track their diets and perform useful analysis. The current scenario is that the team from Red30 assigned to H+ project has met with some coaches and members to get an initial understanding of requirements. To confirm their understanding, the project team is preparing for its first workshop with all key stakeholders from H+. The purpose is to present the team's understanding of the project goals and jointly come up with a product vision statement that clearly articulates what H+ aspires for.
