Write a project proposal on a Building Materials Delivery App using the guidelines below.

BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY The proposal should start with an introduction to include some of the information listed below. In writing this section, the literature review is of central importance as it serves two main functions: 1. It acquaints you with the available literature in the area of your study, thereby broadening your knowledge base. 2. It provides you with information on the methods and procedures other people have used in similar situations and tells you what works and what does not. Start with a very broad perspective of the main subject area, before gradually narrowing the focus to the central problem under investigation. In doing so, cover the following aspects of your study area: - an overview of the main area under study; - a historical perspective (development, growth, etc.) pertinent to the study area; - philosophical or ideological issues relating to the topic; - trends in terms of prevalence, if appropriate; - major theories, if any; - the main issues, problems and advances in the subject area under study; - important theoretical and practical issues relating to the central PROBLEM STATEMENT - Focus on issues relating to its central theme, identifying some of the gaps in the existing body of knowledge. - Identify some of the main unanswered questions. Here some of the main research questions that you would like to answer through your study should also be raised, and a rationale and relevance for each should be provided. - Knowledge gained from other studies and the literature about the issues you are proposing to investigate should be an integral part of this section. - identify the issues that are the basis of your study; - specify the various aspects offperspectives on these issues; * identify the main gaps in the existing body of knowledge; - raise some of the main research questions that you want to answer through your study: - identify what knowledge is available concerning your questions, specifying the differences of opinion in the literature regarding these questions if differences exist; - develop a rationale for your study with particular reference to how your study will fill the identified gaps. AIM \& OBJECTIVES Aim - The main objective indicates the central thrust of your study whereas the sub-objectives identify the specific issues you propose to examine. Objectives - The objectives of the study should be clearly stated and specific in nature. Each sub-objective should delineate only one issue. Use action-oriented verbs such as 'to determine', 'to find out', 'to examine', 'to identify' and 'to ascertain' in formulating sub-objectives, which should be numerically listed METHODOLOGY - Propose a methodology of choice -Describe the chosen methodology - Present alternative methodologies - Justify the chosen methodology As much as possible, consider current methodologies SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY - Use your research problem as a starting point - State how your project will contribute to the existing literature in the field - Explain how your research will benefit society - Mention the specific persons or institutions who will benefit from your study - Indicate how your study may help future studies in the field REFERENCES - List of relevant references from the background to the study, problem statement, and literature review - Use the Harvard System of Referencing - There are several referencing software such as Mendeley
