ISYS1000 Introduction to Business Information Systems

In-person Presentation during scheduled tutorial sessions. All members should present their part. No online presentations unless you have a valid reason.

In groups of 3-4, select an organization that has recently adopted an information system solution to address a challenge in their business process or optimize their business operations.

Your task is to investigate how the chosen organization has utilized specific Information

Technology/Information Systems (IT/IS) solutions to enhance its business process efficiency and/or competitive advantage.

Using the Creating Business Value with IT (CBVwIT) framework, develop a detailed case study addressing the following steps:

1. Identify the Specific Business Problem(s)

o  Identify the specific business problems your chosen organization need(ed) to address.

o  Explain the problems using competitive forces and value chain.

2. Determine Business Strategy & Processes

o  Determine the desired business strategy and the business processes needed to create business value.

o  Describe the strategic direction the organization decided upon to address the identified problems and the specific actions required to achieve it.

3. Recommend Specific Information Systems

o  Identify the Information Systems (IS) that will support the organization’s strategic plan.

o  Explain how these systems will help address the business problems and support the business strategy and processes.

4. Determine ICT Infrastructure Requirements

o  Establish the ICT (Information and Communication Technology) infrastructure necessary to implement the proposed information system.

o  Describe the support and resources needed to properly support the strategic plan.

Presentation duration: 15 - 20 minutes followed by 5 – 10 minutes Q & A during your scheduled tutorial session.

Submission: Submit your presentation slides by 18:00 of your presentation day.

Note to Students: This is a presentation-only assessment, so it is crucial to present your content well since there are no other content submissions. You can include explanatory notes or detailed speaker notes in the speaker notes section of each slide to ensure all points are covered during the presentation and to enhance clarity and ensure comprehensive coverage of the assignment requirements.
