Case study 3: Online Gym Platform
A team of gym instructors at short notice were required to close their gym and so have decided to adopt an online gym platform where they can still run classes for their current and future members with the purpose to increase the health awareness and promote fitness in Canberra and keep their business running. This team includes 8 instructors, 4 male and 4 female instructors each of whom have different skills and knowledge of over 10-15 years. The gym consisted of 10 other staff and 95 monthly memberships, exercising with them and using the facilities. The gym, however, was having difficulties paying instructors, rent, gym facilities and other business expenses required for running services etc. After the decision was made to change to an online platform, some members chose to stop their membership and requested a refund with the expected loss of $25,000 annually. However, there are still 45 members who are interested in their fitness and health and are happy to continue to exercise online with their current instructors. Your job is to propose a project that allows these gym sessions to be promoted and running online every day, starting in less than four weeks. The Online Gym Platform should facilitate the new membership requests, online payment, audio and video sessions where instructors and members can interact online. In addition, members should be able to ask on-time questions and instructors can answer them. The members can also record and send their questions online through the online platform where instructors can answer their questions either through audio or video or written comments. Members should also be able to provide feedback at the end of each session. With this Online Gym Platform, you and your company are invited to propose and develop a project planning that assists the instructors to run their gym and pay their costs and amenities and achieve their goals in the short time. In order to be successful, they will consider the quality of your answers as a factor of choosing the best project. It is also expected that you provide the organisation with a snapshot of how the solution work.
