Question: (If not wireframe, you can draw the basic structure in a page with a pen) I need to design a user interface webpage for this
- (If not wireframe, you can draw the basic structure in a page with a pen) I need to design a user interface webpage for this case study so need your help. Thank you.
- Create a set of wireframes for the Performance Horses control panel design. These wireframes should meet the requirements for the Performance Horses control panel. You need to show:
- Help functions for users,
- General placement for all items on each page. This can be in the form of a template where, for example, a table could be used to show a picture or logo of a system, etc.
- Navigation between pages, such as buttons, breadcrumb trails, etc.
- All screen components for each page.
- Wireframes for all pages in the Performance Horses control panel.
- Create a click-through prototype of your wireframes using Balsamiq Mockups Links in presentation mode (see https://docs.balsamiq.com/desktop/linking/ for details).
Case study :
Performance Horses Case Study
Details
Performance Horses is an elite horse stud and training facility that has decided to invest in computerising their facilities to track the horses, employees looking after horses, and all the activity of the stud and training facility. The stud is on a 150-acre property and can house up to 20 horses and employs 5 people.
The property is comprised of the following:
Buildings
- A main house
- A large barn for storing feed
- A shed for machinery
- A 6 car garage
- An employee bunk house
- Two stable blocks A and B each with ten horse stables
- Each stable has a tack shed, a round yard and a wash bay
- Block A has a two bedroom guest house that includes a kitchen/tea room and bathroom
Paddocks and Yards
- Three 10 acre paddocks
- Six 5 acre paddocks
- 10 small paddocks
- Two stallion yards
- 10 holding yards
- Two training arenas (one indoor and one outdoor)
- Two large spelling paddocks at the back of the property
- An exercise track around one of the spelling paddocks
Gates and Parking
- Outdoor parking for guests
- Three entrance gates
Background
Performance Horses have relied on a white board and written ledgers in the stables to communicate most activities and keep track of visitor logs, horses arriving and departing, allocation of stables and feeding regimes. They have used a rough map of the property with labels on yards and paddocks to identify areas.
There has been occasional confusion over arena use and also over when horses have been fed and treated. There must be accurate records kept for all feeding and treatment of horses. There is also a government requirement to track the movement of all the horses around the facility so that any disease outbreak can be quickly and accurately tracked. Tracking is also essential for breeding information when horses are being bred.
The business wants to computerise all its activities, including logging vehicle movement through the entrance gates and horses being taken between paddocks, yards and stables. It's important that all new horse arrivals are quarantined for two weeks and kept separate from the other horses.
The business also wants to include employee rosters and work allocation of feeding, treatments and exercise routines and for the employees and other activities.
They also want to have a booking system for the arenas, round yards, and all paddocks, yards and stables.
Implementation
To begin with, they will commence with the employee roster and work allocation, and the paddock, yard and stable allocation. They would like the paddocks, yards and stables to be labelled and they will update their map. They'd eventually like this to be computerised on a touch screen, but not in this first implementation.
The roster continues for seven days a week and has three shifts, morning, evening and night shift. An employee is only required for a night shift if a horse is due to foal or is ill and requires supervision and/or treatment.
This will require the following details:
- Employee name
- Shift day and time
- Allocated horses
- Under each horse, the following details: o Horse name o Age o Breed o Sex o Size
- Any medical conditions o Other notes
- Paddock, yard and stable allocation o Type and number of feeds per day o Exercise
- Treatments (and details)
- Appointment and who with (vets, farriers etc) o Due to foal
- With the exception of a paddock allocation, all of these points are optional, but must be marked as N/A if they are not needed.
The owner wants a user console at the employee bunk house, each stable block and the barn, so employees can plan their day and mark tasks completed as they go through the day. For this purpose, all employee activity needs to be logged with a date time stamp.
