case 2-2 and class review.

Case 2-2 is about the new system of Computerizing the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in South Africa. This project's goals are improve communication ,cut diplomats travel costs in half. it began in 1994, and between 1999 to 2002 government invested $650,000. However, it was failed. the users didn't like this system. Nobody wants a big change. we have two solutions-first,
change the scope of the goal, and second, raise capital. For example, raise funds through central bank or from the IMF as well as the World Bank. If we fail to plan adequately, we plan to fail big time.When performance is measured, performance improves. after the group project, we had a Cross Functional Systems Exercise with classmates.
