Information system keeps on failing


Information Systems are the foundation of today’s up-and-coming businesses. Creating an information technology system is a difficult task for it needs generally experienced workers who have advance technical knowledge and expertise in managing and understanding business principles. But instead of making this system successfully implemented, it turns out that it keeps on failing due to

• poor planning
• shortage of knowledge and skills of the team
• lack of top management commitment
• inadequate project management
• improper definition of roles and responsibilities

Misunderstanding the objective and scope of the information system could also lead to system failure because it needs greater realism in setting targets, greater financial control and flexibility.
