1. Organizations iiare iicomplex iisystems iicomposed iiof iiinterrelated iiand iiinterdependent iisubsystems.



2. System iiand iisubsystem iiboundaries iiand iienvironments iihave iian iiimpact iion iiinformation
iisystem iianalysis iiandidesign.




3. Systems iiare iidescribed iias iieither iiopen, iiwith iifree iiflowing iiinformation, iior iiclosed iiwith
iirestricted iiaccess iitoiinformation.




4. A iivirtual iiorganization iiis iione iithat iihas iiparts iiof iithe iiorganization iiin iidifferent iiphysical
iilocations. iiThey iiuseicomputer iinetworks iiand iicommunications iitechnology iito iiwork iion

iiprojects. iiAdvantages iiof iia iivirtual iiorganization iiare:




A. Reduced iicosts iiof iiphysical iifacilities
B. More iirapid iiresponse iito iicustomer iineeds
C. Flexibility iifor iiemployees iito iicare iifor iichildren iior iiaging iiparents



5. Enterprise iisystems iior iiEnterprise iiResource iiPlanning ii(ERP) iidescribes iian iiintegrated
iiorganizational iiinformation iisystem. iiThe iisoftware iihelps iithe iiflow iiof ii information iibetween

iithe iifunctional iiareas iiwithin iitheiorganization.




6. ERP iican iiaffect iievery iiaspect iiof iithe iiorganization, iisuch iias:

A. Design iiof iiemployees’ iiwork
B. Skills iirequired iifor iijob iicompetency
C. Strategic iipositioning iiof iithe iicompany

7. Many iiissues iimust iibe iiovercome iifor iithe iiERP iiinstallation iiis iito iibe iideclared iia iisuccess:

A. User iiacceptance
B. Integration iiwith iilegacy iisystems iiand iithe iisupply iichain
C. Upgrading iifunctionality ii(and iicomplexity) iiof iiERP iimodules
D. Reorganizing iiwork iilife iiof iiusers iiand iidecision iimakers
E. Expanded iireach iiacross iiseveral iiorganizations
F. Strategic iirepositioning iiof iithe iicompany

, 8. A iicontext-level iidata iiflow iidiagram iiis iian iiimportant iitool iifor iishowing iidata iiused iiand
iiinformation iiproduced iiby iiaisystem. iiIt iiprovides iian iioverview iiof iithe iisetting iior iienvironment

iithe iisystem iiexists iiwithin—which iientities iisupply iiand iireceive iidata/information.




9. The iicontext-level iidata iiflow iidiagram iiis iione iiway iito iishow iiscope, iior iiwhat iiis iito iibe iiincluded
