Case study 4: HealthyEat Project
Mr. Jake, CEO of 4 stars restaurants from Paris has decided to move to Canberra-ACT. He
has recently purchased a small local restaurant where they provide health food for their
customers. Mr. Jake brought his knowledge to this restaurant and the goal is to be the
number one healthy outlet in Canberra with 90% of Canberrans having healthy diet.
HealthyEat deals with the purchase of fresh fruits and vegetables that they use to create
healthy food for sale at the restaurant. The growers of fruits and vegetables deliver their
product to the wholesale companies. Mr. Jakes staff place orders with these wholesalers
using telephone calls and a fax-based ordering system. The wholesalers then deliver the
fruits and vegetables that have been ordered to Mr. Jakes central facilities, where they are
packed to go to the individual restaurant outlets. The transport to the restaurant outlets is
then carried out by a contracted logistics/distribution company.
Mr. Jake has asked you to lead the development of a new online fruit and vegetable
ordering and payment system to be used when working with his suppliers. He explains to
you the problems that he is having with delays in receiving fruits and vegetables ordered
from suppliers. He has received complaints from suppliers stating that staff from HealthyEat
expects delivery of fruit within 24 hours of an order being placed. Three of the suppliers
only guarantee 48 hours delivery. It has been suggested that a policy of 24 hours delivery
may be unreasonable. Suppliers have also complained that orders that are sent by fax can
be hard to read. The online platform should also facilitate marketing and better interaction.
You and your company are invited to propose and develop a project planning that assists
HealthyEat to run their business and achieve their goals. In order to be successful, they will
consider the quality of your answers as a factor of choosing the best project. It is also
expected that you provide the organisation with a snapshot of how the solution work.
