This past week, we met in class to decide which of our 3 alternatives we would choose for our recommendation report, we chose the one involving outsourcing to a company that developed a very effective and complete fraud detection software. The company, which is actually the merger of two very effective firms: iovation and IDinsight, will release its new software very soon, and we believe eBay would be better off buying it that trying to create and implement a software by themselves. I met with my group Friday after class and we all wrote together our plan of action memo. Then, Agnes and I worked Sunday in the creation of the Gantt chart. Personally, I assigned each of the individual tasks to each one of us and did the color distribution on the chart. Finally, I sent it to Agnes and she printed it. We turned it in Monday morning in class. This week, we are expected to each start researching of the topics that were assigned to each one of us in by the Gantt chart.
