Systems Development and Implementation
Kruger Designs hired a consulting firm 3 months ago to redesign the information system used by the architects. The architects will be able to use state-of-the-art CAD programs to help in designing the products. Further, they will be able to store these designs on a network server where they and other architects may be able to call them back up for future designs with similar components. The consulting firm has been instructed to
develop the system without disrupting the architects. In fact, top management believes that the best route is to develop the system and then to “introduce” it to the architects during a training session. Management does not want the architects to spend precious billable hours guessing about the new system or putting work off until the new system is working. Thus, the consultants are operating in a back room under a shroud of secrecy. Required: a. Do you think that management is taking the best course of action for the announcement of the new system? Why? b. Do you approve of the development process? Why?
