In this discussion you will be looking at the system development process by analyzing a case study "hitachi consulting moves Human Resources to the cloud". discuss the key problems with the old system and the factors contributing to these problems? How were the problems identified. how did the new system address these problems? What was the impact of the new system? What elements of the implementation approach likely promoted its success? In what way? What elements might put the new system at risk? In what way? What measures would you use to assess the long term impact of this change?

It is possible to summarize the five phases of the system development life cycle as follows. Just what are them, exactly?
Part (a). One of the essential steps of the system development life cycle is preparing feasibility studies, including technical, economic, legal, operational and schedules feasibility. We have discussed these feasibilities in the interactive tutorials in details. Discuss these feasibilities briefly. And elaborate cost-benefit analysis under economic feasibility. Part (b). The system experts perform the design and implementation phases of the system development life cycle. However, the accountant’s role in these phases cannot be ignored. Comment on the statement.
The organization of the design team can be categorized into: 1- Functional organization 2- Balanced matrix 3- Project matrix 4-Functional matrix 5-Project team. where project team is the most successful organization. Design process applies to design of system, subsystems, assemblies; but not to components. True or False?
In the course of developing a system, is it required to offer explanations or summaries of the most critical phases?
