¶ … System Development
There are a myriad of challenges to successfully implementing new systems with the largest being how to manage resistance to change. The intent of this analysis is to evaluate the five major challenges to system development. What unifies all of these factors is the need for a successful change management program that can provide those users most affected by new systems with greater insight into why the change is happening (Kroenke, 2013).
Analysis Of The Five Major Challenges To Systems Development
In addition to change management challenges, a lack of having clear objectives and lead to a systems development project failing. The first challenge to systems development is managing the difficulty of determining requirements (Kroenke, 2013). This is particularly difficult when there is resistance to the new system going in or when system analysts are attempting to design enhanced and more effective workflows.
The second major challenge is having changes occur in requirements. This is particularly challenging from a continuation standpoint, as it can often lead to a company going in multiple directions at once. Changing in requirements create confusion and lose valuable time on a project.
The third major challenge to systems development are managing and overcoming the difficulties involving scheduling and budgeting. This also can be exceptionally challenging from a system development standpoint, as it will often slow down all progress as budgets are re-assessed. Lack of budgeting clarity can also lead to scope creep and a project becoming much more expensive than had originally been thought.
Changing technologies and diseconomies of scale can also present significant challenges to systems development as well. Technology shifts over time that aren't planned for can lead to significant declines in scheduling accuracy and also lead to projects becoming increasingly out of step with current trends. Diseconomies of scale can also be very challenging, making it nearly impossible for a project to attain tis primary objectives over time.

The religious organization has other-worldly goals, but must adapt to the demands of this world in order to survive. There are generally two kinds of responses to this problem -- the church response and the sect response. The church response is to adapt at the expense of the goals and the sect response is value-rational-to maximize goal commitment at the expense of adaptation (Satow, 1975).

This category can further be divided into six subgroups namely; short-range, medium range, long-range, close range, endurance, Medium Altitude Long Endurance (MALE) Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). The long-range UAVs are technologically more advanced as they use satellites in order to overcome the communication problem between the UAVs and the ground stations. This communication problem is generally caused by the curvature of the earth. The medium, short and close range
Alcan IT Management Systems Analysis Alcan's growth as a global conglomerate in the aluminum and metal fabrication industry follows a similar trajectory of many companies whose business models forced rapid, highly distributed business models at the expense Information Technologies (IT) management systems consistency and performance. Alcan's IT management systems and underlying infrastructure have become balkanized as the company has grown into four separately functioning and highly autonomous business units. In evaluating
Health Information System Promoting Action Design Research to create value in healthcare through IT Recently there has been varying proof showing that health IT reduces costs while improving the standard of care offered. The same factors that had caused delays in reaping benefits from IT investment made in other sectors (i.e. time consuming procedural change) are also very common within the healthcare sector. Due to the current transitive nature of the Healthcare
Role-based ERP systems are critical for the siloed, highly inefficient architectures of legacy ERP systems to be made more relevant, contribute greater financial performance, and lead to higher levels of overall customer satisfaction. c. Purpose of the study The purpose the study is evaluate how enterprises who adopt role-based ERP system implementations are able to attain higher levels of financial and operations-based performance vs. those that rely on silo-based, more functionally
Regional Development The differences in the level of development in the world regions emanates from the regional disparities in the individual country economies. This result in regional inequality within that country; therefore, regional inequality with respect to a country is the eminent disparity between the living standards that apply in that country. It is a hard task to quantify the level of development, prosperity or poverty in a country or region.
