Scenario 3: Falsifying Attendance Jason, a Junior System Administrator with the Management Information Systems Department, clocked in 4 minutes and 27 seconds late for work this morning. While he won’t get fired for it, being late this once means that he will not receive the perfect attendance incentive which he needs to make ends meet, given his daughter’s recent series of hospitalizations. It’s not that Jason didn’t make an effort to be there on time. He actually arrived in the office five minutes early but was unable to clock in immediately because his direct superior, Raffy, asked him for an informal project progress report as soon as he walked in the door. As a Junior System Administrator, Jason has access and the capability to edit the company’s attendance records. He figures that since he was unable to punch in only because of his boss, it wouldn’t hurt to edit the timestamp on his attendance for today.

What I don’t understand,” said the woman at the hostess stand, “is why you took my reservation for 7 o’clock but then make us wait for 45 minutes. I can clearly see empty tables in the dining room.” Emily, the hostess at the Fleur-de-Lis French restaurant, looked toward the 125-seat main dining room. She too could see a large number of tables that were indeed empty. But the tables hadn’t yet been cleared and reset. There was no way she could immediately seat the increasingly agitated customer and her four dining companions. She could also see the one busser on duty, working as quickly as possible to clear one of the cluttered tables. It was Friday night. The restaurant was very busy, and the wait times for guests were getting longer by the hour. Emily looked at the reservation list and saw that a number of large groups were scheduled to arrive at 8:00 p.m. With only one busser on the schedule, Emily knew it was going to be a long night. “I’m sorry ma’am,” said Emily apologetically,…

Mr Smith is working as the director of credit collection department at SISHGC Building Supplies Limited. The credit collection department recently shifted from the legacy system to a new system that was installed four months ago. Mr Smith is not happy with this newly installed system. His complaint is that the data flow from the billing and account receivable departments is not occurring in the manner originally requested. Further, the updates to the database files are not occurring as frequently as he had envisioned. Thus, the hope that the new system would provide more current and timely information has not materialised. Mr Smith claims that the systems analysts spent three days interviewing him and other workers in his department. During that time, he and the other workers thought they had clearly conveyed their needs. At this stage, Mr Smith feels as if their needs were ignored, and their time was wasted. Required: Identify the issues in the system design process. How can these…
