ESSAY ON: IT: Historical Planning and Future Upgrade at Exeter University

Number of Pages 15

This research paper: A 15 page paper reviewing a 1986 article describing the process of automating a single department’s records – using untrained departmental clerks for some of the programming requirements – and the success that the university found in that approach, followed by examination of how the university should approach a current upgrade of that mid-1980s system. The paper assesses the make-or-buy decision in terms of current goals; future needs; whether to use a decision support system; how to decide on the make-or-buy option; and several other factors involved in arriving at the optimum decision. Bibliography lists 9 sources.
