Create a list of two (2) of the most important criteria that would help an organization determine when to upgrade or make a technological investment.<\/strong><\/p>\n When a business is looking to upgrade or even begin to start using technology, there are a few things that need to be viewed at such as; what are their needs, what type of company are they, and what is the company hoping to gain from the technology. A business needs to look at software, both the operating system and applications. Application software will help the business in everyday activities, such as looking at supplies records, seeking inventory levels and reports from the last quarter’s production. Operating systems is how the computer systems will run, as well as hooking up compatible devices such as printers and hard drives.There also needs to be an understanding of what level if information systems the company is seeking. Is the company small enough that it only requires an executive support system ESS level system, or so large that the business needs a fully operational level system? The benefit of having a technological system is there is a more accessible electronic trail of what is currently being worked on and past projects. <\/p>\n You have been tasked to secure the latest technology for the sales force coming onboard in the next six months. Compare and contrast two (2) different approaches to securing the latest technology at the very lowest price.<\/strong><\/p>\n First: What type of sales will be conducted, and how can the new system most benefit the company? If the company is a local business that has a storefront but also sells on the internet than it would need different technology than a business with only a storefront. I would first look at what technology and programs are coming out in the next six months, and also contact different suppliers on what quotes they can give; I would also ask if there is an added expense for extra IT help and if so what is that? There would be a lot of research of all programs to make sure it will be suitable in the operations of the company.<\/p>\n Second: Being tasked to find new technology for the sales force I would look at possibly just upgrading the current software, this could be a much cheaper way to go rather than implementing a whole new software system. I would contact our current software company and ask about up and coming upgrades and how much it will cost. Sometimes upgrading current software will be far less expensive than getting a whole new system. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Question #1 New technology is always being introduced.
