The project sponsor, Dr. Rob Mohammad, has emphasized the needs and details which are to be taken care of. To meet this goal, it is crucial to identify the bottle-neck in the operation processing, then analyze the code and check the product. These two methods will save processing times and also save resources and times. If the project takes a little longer time to complete and a little higher cost than what we have planned, this project still is still considered as a success project, if it allows the company to save money and times in business operations and at the same time is utilized in providing services to its customers.
