Development strategies
Leonardo Goncalves Da Silva:I showed your DFDs and object models to the Executive Committee last week, and I thought you might like to hear some good news. The committee members really are enthusiastic about the new system. Apparently, the diagrams helped them visualize the new system and reinforced their understanding.Now it’s time to think about systems development alternatives and the transition to the systems design phase. I’ll get back to you tomorrow with some suggestions.Jesse Baker

Subject:
Financial analysis and development strategies
Leonardo Goncalves Da Silva:Now that we have approval for the logical model, we need to take a look at development strategies for the TIMS system. This will give you a chance to put your cost-benefit analysis skills to workI want you to perform three tasks to analyze in-house development of TIMS:

  1. Visit the SCR Data Library and review the questionnaire summary and cost-benefit summary;

  2. Organize this data into a spreadsheet with columns for years 0, 1, 2, and 3, and rows for the items. Be sure to group developmental costs, operational costs, and revenues separately

  3. Use the spreadsheet data to calculate payback, ROI, and NPV for the TIMS project.


Here are some tips that might help: Go back and review the cost-benefit data, which contains TIMS cost and benefit projections that were put together at the time of the JAD sessions. We want to see all costs and benefits identified as developmental vs. operational, direct vs. indirect, and so on. See if you can think of any intangible benefits, too.Also review the questionnaire results, because we use this data to project student enrollment and training center revenue.Two more tasks for you: We need to find out whether we can implement TIMS as a commercial software package. Get on the Internet and look for a vertical package designed to support a training operation. I’m not sure if any exist, but we should check. Let me know what you find. We also need to investigate the possibility of outsourcing the TIMS system. Try to locate one or more Internet-based outsourcing option, and let me know what the advantages and disadvantages of outsourcing would be.Jesse Baker
