Introduction
Software Analysis and Design

• As long as companies are making marketing
  decisions well ahead of the time they launch
  their products, there will always be
  overstock/excess inventory.
• Many of the name brand fashion, apparel, shoes,
  and accessories companies catering to the 18 to
  35 year old Generation Y demographic have no safe
  outlets to move through their off-price
  inventory.
• These companies are extremely careful about who
  they allow to sell this merchandise, helping them
  to prevent sales channel pollution.
• Unfortunately because of this, manufacturers
  either sell to an outlet where their brand might
  sit on shelves for months at a time at an off
  price, or they have older inventory collecting
  dust/taking up valuable space in their
  warehouses.

The goal of this project is to build an
e-commerce application, uFUSS.com, that allows
uFUSSs manufacturing partners the ability to
move through their off-price merchandise in such
a way that prevents the risk of sales channel
pollution.
