QUESTION 3 [24 MARKS]

MyNasi is an online group of restaurants throughout Malaysia that offers online food ordering.
MySoftwareHaus is a software house that developed the MyNasi Ordering System for MyNasi.

Currently, MyNasi only supports the cash-on-delivery method of payment. To become

competitive MyNasi organizational needs and requirements change after 10 years of operation.
For that reason, other payment methods must be available in MyNasi Ordering System. Other
payment alternatives are debit-card, credit cards, and e-wallets. The change is a necessary
inconsequence response to the MyNasi business change in the payment methods. The online
payment must be reliable and in line with the safety requirements of the legislative rules by
Bank Negara Malaysia.

Figure 4 shows the standard operating procedure for the change management process model
to ensure the changes are applied to the system in a controlled way, the evolution of the system
is controlled, and the most urgent and cost-effective changes are prioritised. Therefore, the
management has decided to perform quick-change management. It means, the modified system
is not considered a new release. Thus, no release planning is required. In addition, impact
analysis will be excluded. However, the quick changes will only be done after the change
request is analysed and the analysis gives a positive result. Also, the existing source code
should be analysed before the source-code change begins.

(c) You are responsible for implementing a new change management process model for
the quick-change demand to be used by MySoftwareHaus. Based on Figure 4, propose
