Question:
You complete the Practice Tasks, you learn about new developments at Game Technology. This morning you received a message from Felesia Stukes, the IT director. She is sending you a list of planning statements and she wants you to decide which type of feasibility applies. She also wants you to prepare a diagram that will show a list of constraints.
Task 1.
Reply to Felesia and indicate the type of feasibility for each of the following statements.
• Based on the future cost of support and maintenance, TCO will be very high. Critical Thinking Challenge: Tasks Page
• The network will not be ready until next year, which might be too late.
• Expensive training will be required.
• The current system is well-liked and effective, and users see no need for change.
• The hardware is unreliable and will not integrate with other company systems.
• The new system will cause a workforce reduction, and employees are very concerned. •
The platform does not have the capacity for future needs, and cannot be expanded.
• The project does not meet the company policy for an acceptable return on investment.
• The projected benefits do not outweigh the estimated costs.
• The software will not be available until May, and that will cause an unacceptable delay.
Task 2.
Felesia also wants to see a grid chart that will show the following constraints:
• Management told all departments to include “green” goals in next year’s plan.
• The inventory system would be more effective if we add RFID capability next year.
• Management just announced a change in travel policy: No more first-class air travel!
• Effective immediately, our products must meet all government standards.
