Las Cad Report

Poor communication between management – when the management didn’t communication with their employees it cause then to have low motivation, low loyalty, and high turnover because most of the employees didn’t know what to do or how to do it.

The policy for accepting new projects does not take into account current workloads and deadlines.

This way the IT department can understand what the higher level and lower level employees need for system stability and a better graphical interface. Another plan of action would include the method of Systems Development Life Cycle or SDLC. The phases of this method are planning, analysis, system design, implementation and operation. First we must plan on what exactly we are trying to accomplish. We know we need to upgrade the Riordan Manufacturing system. Next we must analyze the system and look for problematic errors. A project proposal can be essential to launching a system analysis (Farah, 2013). These are things to keep in mind: understand the business situation or problem, understand the significance to the problem in the organization, think of alternate solutions, the use of computer information systems for solutions, find people interested in the solving the problem (Farah, 2013). This plan is used to decrease redundancies, errors, and increase security. Finding all the weak spots in the company will help in the improvement of integrating an updated efficiently functioning system. Feasibility is important to account for when upgrading the system. Integrating a CRM will help to work with customers and understand their needs and wants to benefit the company and the relationship with their customers. Designing the system will involve knowing what kind of software is needed to store and

Other contributing factors included an inadequate pre-startup safety review, inadequate operator training on the newly installed control system, unevaluated temporary changes, malfunctioning or missing equipment, misaligned valves, and bypassed critical safety devices; and insufficient technical expertise available in the control room during the

You found the data report the state sent out as part of the pilot confusing. The report painted a skewed picture as there were data elements you were not able to enter. There are also lack of clear definitions of the indicators to be reported upon. For example, scene time, should it only include the time from ambulance arrival to ambulance departure, or should it also include the time when an EMT responds directly to scene.

* Development began in late 2002 and was to be completed in 12 months’ time.

What factors did the Root Cause analysis reveal that contributed to the system failure problem?

There would have been a budgeted amount for each phase of the project to go along with sufficient time to complete the project correctly the first time around. There also seemed to be a lack of teamwork throughout the project. I would have had a set plan in place throughout the entire project life cycle. The main problem I feel like contributed to the failure of the project is the lack of quality. Design specs should have been standard across the project regardless of what contractor was doing the work. The time and money spent redoing portions of the project was a major setback. Continuous improvement is also a key essential to any project. Last being ethical and honest about everything within the project should have been done from the

The HIM directors failed in proper planning to select the right system that satisfies the needs of the business. The directors should have prioritized the functions that they want the EDMS to have to meet the needs of the facility. To resolve the disagreement over which system to choose, there should be a quantifiable means of evaluating the systems. The directors should create a list of all functions and decided which features are mandatory and which ones are desirable. Also, they should develop a numeric ranking system and score each function based on its importance; for example, each function is rated on a scale of 1 to 5, when 5 is highly important and 1 is unimportant. In addition, a weighted system can help to determine which system to choose; with the weighted system, each function would be listed along with a score that would be multiplied by the weight, showing how important the functionality is. Lastly, they can present the list of the functions to vendors and ask whether a function is available, is available with customization, will be offered in the future, or is not available. The directors should gather and review all the information and reach an agreement to select a system that fulfills the need of all facilities (Sayles & Trawick, 2014, pp.78-82).

Additionally, it contained no effective way to audit the system to ensure data reliability. This goal being so ambitious, yet most facilities were meeting it and no one questioned it or asked themselves "how is every facility is hitting this goal?" This confirms the lack of an audit system to review the data. Finally, the failure

At first glance it looked like that the main problem about this case would be Korean’s team and their lack of qualification and expertize in this System Implementation (SI) project, therefore without taking drastic measures and improvements they are not going to be able finish it in time. But the more I read, the more I understood that lack of experience is just one small piece of problem set they had there. They had strong Cultural differences between Asia and Western thinking, in way of acting, communication differences, language barrier, used working hierarchy and most importantly different standards and values. As well as missing staring real information about managers and their teams,

They had taken the technology for granted and did not allocate the proper resources for such an integral system. Their technology was outdated and they failed to manage the integration process properly. They failed to control changes made to the network effectively. Their people also lacked the training necessary to maintain the network. Likely as a response to the cost cutting, they also failed to build in enough redundancy into the system and did not have an effective maintenance program to keep the network going.

The IT folks couldn’t communicate properly with the business about their ideas and strategy that confused the business and made them reject the ideas that were actually worth trying.

Before upgrading software it is important to prioritize what exactly needed at the dispatch location. A problem must be identified before putting any new pieces into action. Some typical problems that may be seen in law enforcement dispatch systems include, wasting time and resources,

At first, identifying the potential problems. Though I will pay more attention to the top three classical problems, it is necessary to analyze other potential problems in specific project by investigating similar IT projects that is “Failure” or “Success” before kicking off project. The “similar” can be explained in many aspects, such as same goals, cost, scope, same industry, background and so on. I need to investigate how such similar project fails. For example, we assume that a company want to launch an ERP projects recently. In this area, there are many companies did it before. Failure of high-profile ERP projects is common. In order to avoid mistakes that usually occurs in such IT project, it can investigate many failure projects, such as Airforce, Saudi Telecom and so on. The project failure of Airforce due to the following reasons: weak teamwork & composition and lack of top management support. The Saudi Telecom’s failure attributes to lack of top management support, inadequate of company culture, and huge system customization (Aldammas & Al-Mudimigh, 2011). As you
