To keep up with the trend of online music streaming, Great Time Music Co. Ltd. started a digital transformation project to redesign their mobile application “STAR MUSIC App”. Using this project as
a real field case, students can learn how to execute the whole project including system analysis and
agile software development. Starting from clarifying the current issues of STAR MUSIC App, students
then have to prepare and propose a redesign plan, so they will learn how to identify the requirements
and provide cost-benefit evaluation of the project. In the meanwhile, students will have the chance to
go through the Scrum project management method step-by-step.
The core issue of this case is: Mengqi Xie, as a project manager, uses system analysis, cost-benefit
evaluation, and advantages of agile development method to persuade president to re-develop STAR MUSIC App under a controlled schedule and budget.
