Chapter1:The Systems Analyst and Information Systems Development
Answer to Your Turn 1-1: Being an Analyst
Student answers will vary, depending on their preferences regarding being a: 1) systems
analyst, 2) business analyst, 3) requirements analyst, 4) infrastructure analyst, or 5)
change management analyst. Verify that the student has correctly associated the skills
needed with the type of analyst for which they aspire and that the student has created a
plan to acquire those skills. The roles and the names used to describe them may vary
from organization to organization.
Answer to Your Turn 1-2: Implementing a Satellite Data Network
While answers may vary, answers might include the following:
1. A cost-benefit analysis, along with other financial processes (ROI, etc.) would
certainly reveal that a just-in-time (JIT) inventory can reduce inventory costs and
increase revenue. A standard communication line, encrypted or not, would not be
able to handle the high bandwidth needed for data, voice and video transmissions.
2. A competitor would be able to narrow the gap by adopting the JIT type of
inventory management. Voice and video are not necessary to keep the inventory
up to date on a timely basis, data transmissions alone would work well.

Answer to Your Turn 1-4: Too Much Paper, Part 2
1. Issues arising from digital signatures and electronic documents typically focus on
establishing validity for signatures and originators. As these issues can be
overcome using certificates and encryption, they don‗t necessarily affect the
project feasibility. However, they do need to be addressed.
2. Answers will vary. The project champion, organizational management, and
Fr
perhaps most importantly a subset of the stakeholders must believe in and show
a

nk
training that demonstrates how their jobs might be easier to accomplish with the
automated system.
