Research and evaluate an actual or existing AIS Project

Accounting

Research and evaluate an actual or existing AIS Project.

Part I (Research an AIS project):  Research and identify one financial or accounting system project that is under development or has been implemented recently. The project can be in government or industry. It can be a project that you have experience with and have worked on in the recent past in your company or agency. You can use GAO or another online source to find the project.

·         identify the project and the company or agency the project is being implemented in.

·         briefly describe the purpose of the project.

·         describe any problems it has, or is likely to have, encountered.

·         describe its status, as far as you can tell (still under-development, work-in-process, completed). 

Part II (Discuss your understanding of the AIS project):  With your understanding of the project you researched, please answer the following questions (1-2 paragraphs per question):

·         Summarize your position: do you think that the project is successful? Does it sound like it will be worth the effort?

·         Imagine that you are the Project Manager of this project. Would you do anything differently? Please explain.

·         The guidelines outlined below are considered to be a reasonable “checklist” to help ensure the success of any system development project. Do you agree? Are there other guidelines that you can cite from other reference sources? Were there any steps clearly missed in your project?

(1) Engage Stakeholders
