Question:

Star International manufactures after-market parts for lawn mowers and recreational all-terrain vehicles (ATVs). Because of the growth in the ATV market, sales of Star International's products have grown at double-digit rates over the past five years and the firm's information systems no longer adequately provide the information managers need to run the business. For example, the accounting system cannot provide information needed to control the high rate of growth in costs, or even to relate the growth in costs to the growth in sales. As a consultant hired by Star International, discuss how you could use gap analysis to identify the deficiencies in the firm's CMS and to prioritize the firm's efforts to close the gaps.
