- Because NDCP is a membership cooperative, Dunkin Donuts franchisees are both owners and customers. What might be some advantages to such an ownership structure in terms of getting the support of all stakeholders for a massive project like the one NDCP undertook? What might be some disadvantages?arrow_forwardImagine that your team has been hired to conduct a review of the information system policies and procedures employed in the student registration department at your school or university. Develop a list of at least 10 specific questions that your team would use to assess the effectiveness of these policies and procedures in reducing mistakes, waste, and costs.arrow_forwardHow can we improve the design process by setting measurable goals for usability?arrow_forward
- Suppose that Ms. Hamir stacked the deck with her design proposal. In other words, she purposefully under-designed the less expensive solution and produced a cost estimate for the higher-end version that she knew would come in over budget if it were chosen. She also knew that the customer had a tendency to hire design consultants to do build projects. Discuss with your classmates if you think it is unethical to produce a consulting report that steers a client toward a specific outcome. Suppose instead that Ms. Hamir had prepared a report that truthfully recommended the more expensive option as the better choice for the customer in her best professional opinion. Suppose that the customer decided on the less expensive option solely to reduce costs without regard to the project's security outcomes. Would Ms. Hamir be ethically sound to urge reconsideration of such a decision? Why or why not, discuss this further with your classmates.arrow_forwardThe IT director of Global Hills started the meeting today by saying "I've got some good news and some bad news. The good news is that the higher management has approved the Customer Care Contact (C3) information system project. The new system will reduce clerical time and errors, more over it will improve morale of the department, and avoid possible fines and penalties for noncompliance. The bad news is that the system must be implemented by the end of November as per the demand of federal government, costs must be within the budget, the new system must interact with marketing system, and the president of marketing department insists on approving the final design." 1. Identify the constraints and indicate whether each is present, future, internal, external mandatory, or desirable. (Note: Draw grid that shows the constraints). 2.

- I need help answering this question for my Information System Analysis class. Thank you What did you learn about yourself while working on your project this semester? First, what did you learn about your IS abilities and interests? What did you learn about yourself that will help you working on your design project next semester?arrow_forwardUse the usability criteria you've developed to compare and contrast the two alternative designs. Can your needs really be met? Is it always easy to read the time and other details offered, or do you occasionally have trouble doing so?arrow_forwardThe Shining Stars primary school was the recent recipient of a technology grant to source and implement a school management system. The school administrator is not technology savvy and therefore sought advice from three of the board members who were knowledgeable in the information systems and technology field. One director advised the administrator to purchase an off-the-shelf solution that would allow the school to get the system configured and up and running in a short period with reasonable costs. The second advised the administrator to invest in the development of a unique system to meet the custom requirements of the school’s administration. He suggested that this would create a closer fit to the school’s needs compared to purchasing software, but will cost more. The third director suggested using an open-source solution which would have little if any upfront costs but may require some customization. The school administrator must decide about which solution to go with. Are…arrow_forward
