Use the attached as for info

Project Overview and Requirements         

Copy your executive summary from your Unit 1 assignment.  You may update this if you feel more specificity would be helpful to  the client.
In a second paragraph, explain project requirements.  This is essentially a list of features and desired functionality of the  final deliverable, accompanied by some detail and presented in paragraph  form.
for this section of the document.

Resources and Costs         

Copy your costs from the Unit 1 assignment and then make alterations:                 

Look for specific products as needed. Specify them by name (manufacturer and product, provider and specific service, etc.).
Adjust prices so that your cost estimate is closer to what you think you will need.
Add a line for contingency funds: First, figure out a total and then add 10% to arrive at a grand total.

Again, use embedded Excel and ensure that all parts of the embedded table can be seen in the Word template. All calculations must be done by formula.
Beneath the embedded table, provide a list of all  pertinent full URLs (not text links) for purchases/services. Make sure  the URLs lead directly to the offerings and pricing.

Mention at least four separate ideas:                 

At least one must address data security.
At least one other must deal with costs using an  established quantitative measurement such as ROI, TCO, Net Cash Flow,  Internal Rate of Return, or some other financial model. Again, show the  math, even if you use an online calculator to find a result.

Write 150?180 words for this section.

Discussions: There is a two (2) post minimum (i.e. initial post and response post) for each Discussion. Your initial post for a Discussion assignment is worth up to 20 points and should be at least 150 words. In order to earn the additional 20 points, you should provide a critical response of at least 100 words to the post of at least one other student. There are only 5 Discussions in this course, and each Discussion is worth 40 points. You must demonstrate your knowledge of the fundamental concepts that are proposed in order to receive full credit for a Discussion. I want to see that you are thinking critically and interacting with your peers during the weeks' Discussions are assigned. VERY IMPORTANT: Once the time allotted for a Discussion has expired, that Discussion will no longer be available.
