Project Scenarios
Scenario 1
Online student registration system – International students

NWU – Mafikeng Campus
With the advance in technology in the field of computer-related organization, a lot of things
are now automated. IT has a vital role in the design & implementation of an online student
registration system.
Almost all our Higher institutions have got an online student registration system because of
the extraordinary benefit resulting from IT/IS. With this system, students’ data/information is
well collected, processed & stored for management purposes.
Current Problem
An online student registration system currently exists on all three campuses of NWU. However,
this system is designed to accommodate only South African students. Therefore, to bridge the
gap, the Department of Information System on the Mahikeng Campus requests an efficient &
effective online student registration that will allow undergraduate returning international
students to register for the 2023 academic year at convenience without having to travel to SA
to register & go back to their respective countries.
Scenario 2
Vehicle license disc renewal
Mafikeng local municipal traffic department
The Department of Transport is in authority for regulating and managing of Transportation in

South Africa be it Public Transport, Rail Transportation, Civil Aviation, Maritime
Transport, or Road Transport.
It is by law that every owner of a vehicle in the republic of SA must renew the motor vehicle
license every year before it expires. Failure to renew the license, a person is liable to pay late
licensing penalties and arrears. Clients have a 21-day grace period to renew their expired motor
vehicle license. The grace period is calculated from the expiry date of the current license disc.
Motor vehicle licenses must be renewed at the relevant registering authority or the nearest post
office.
Problem
The Mafikeng local Municipal traffic department is facing problems with long queues and
offline machines for transactions in the licenses disc renewal section, this hurts service
delivery. The existing system is still behind compared to other traffic departments in other
provinces where license discs can be renewed online. To improve the standard of service
delivery in the Mafikeng local municipal traffic department, new solutions/innovations must
be proposed using technology.
Therefore, invent a system that will:
a. Allow clients to renew their discs online and pay.

b. The system should record the vehicle-disc renewal order to the traffic department
system and give out the order number or reference number.
c. Notify clients to go and collect the license disc at the respective traffic department
offices.
Scenario 3
Online Player registration system
The centralized players’ registration system is one of the cornerstones of this new approach. For the
past two decades, South African Football Association (SAFA) have been saying that they need a unified
database to enable identification, tracking, and maintaining a historical archive of players’ development.
Obvious benefits of embracing such a system include the prevention of age cheating (doctoring of IDs)
as well as restricting players from registering in multiple leagues and playing for different teams, issues
that have plagued football development in South Africa for a long while. Having a single registration
system will help eliminate cross-registration and player identity fraud at all levels of the game and allow
for tailor-made training programs. The prevention of incorrect paperwork, particularly in rural areas is
also a positive of the system. The software is also linked to the Home Affairs database to track players
via ID numbers, which adds that much more credibility to the system.
SAFA in partnership with INQAKU developed a system called MYSAFA which assists the body to
track players ‘on the ground’ across divisions and all age groups, improving SAFA’s ability to identify
and nurture talent much earlier, as well as be able to pinpoint exactly where the player comes from.
Problem
MySAFA system allows administrators to select a team in which they want to register a player, the
administrator will punch in the player’s ID number and the system automatically verifies the ID number
from the Home Affairs system and return the player’s full name, surname, date of birth and allocated
SAFA ID. The challenge is that the system will still require the administrator to select the player’s
picture manually. This poses a challenge and opens room for forgery.
Proposal
There is a need to develop an online player registration system that will allow the administering who
happens to be the Regional Executive officer (REO) to input the player’s ID number and retrieve the
player’s information and his/her picture automatically to address the player’s forgery. Players are
registered by the SAFA Regional Executive officer. Players can only play for one team in a season.
Registration season last for 12 months only, after there all players are free agents. Each player is charged
10.00 per registration. All registered will have a unique SAFA player’s registration number. During
registration, all necessary documents (ID copies) need to be uploaded.
