Nick seemed to be so preoccupied with other things instead being more willingly to allow Debbie and Gail to assist him.

Nick needs to become familiar with how to create a strategic plan and the process that is involved with him getting the new online gaming system off to a good start by researching what software, hardware and other programs that he will need for the new system.

Recommendation:
Much more solid, detailed and timely planning is needed to assure a good implementation. I would recommend Warren and his team begin with making sure the money is there
