plan, design, and implement a new online system called the Student Records System (SRS).
The Student Records System (SRS), described in the SRS Preliminary Planning Overview

business needs and values of the SRS. The Sop school is excited about this project and allowed
you to ask them five questions to clarify project issues for you about the SRS project. You are to
include these five questions in your submitted System Request.
