Part B: Mr. Bruce Schnieder, the owner of A&A Office Supplies Company, had
contacted you for your advices on a new information system installed recently at
his company to help improving his company inventory tasks. He told you that the
team that came to install the system does not have any evaluation mechanism
and he also mentioned to you that some of his employees had complained about
the new system’s inputs and outputs. Since he wants to obtain the inventory
result of this quarter, he would like to delay or skip the new system evaluation
and use the new system for inventory right away. Given the above conditions, he
would like to have your advices on his decision and on the evaluation of his new
system.
a) In a paragraph, explain to Mr. Schnieder about problems that can occur
when a system is not evaluated systematically? (10 points)
b) Devise a checklist or form that helps Mr. Schnieder’s employees evaluate
the utilities of the new information system. Suggest a second way to
evaluate the information system, if any. Please be specific and explain
your answers. (10 points)
