This partial yet major submission covers your research findings, the section should provide a detailed analysis of the causes of the problems, issues, or opportunities identified in the business scenario that you have chosen. In this section your objective is to clearly illustrate the knowledge you have gained in this class and reference course concepts and research to understand and solve the problem studied. In this section you should include issues with your business scenario’s organizational/departmental management, organizational/department structure, and current utilizing of information technology.
When reviewing your organization you may want to perform a mini SWOT analysis – strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats to assist you in developing this section of your paper. Please refer to online references to utilize SWOT analysis. What are the main policies and procedures utilized to run the department you work in? What are the inner workings of how things are organized and run? What are some work flow analyses of some of the procedural flows? Analysis of the Requirements for a Solution to the Business Scenario This section should provide a detailed analysis of the inputs (data that you would enter into a computer system), processes (are there alerts in place based on the data that was entered into the system do tasks alert providers of functions they need to perform on the patient based on data entered) and outputs (reports) for the information system solution you have chosen. You must come up with values for the weighted objectives to assist in assessing how the organization is going to choose one of the three vendor options. For example an organization may consider the objectives of; the cost of the system, customer service provided by the vendor of the system, and compatibility with other systems in their decision making process. A comparison will be done between the systems as a component of your final project. At this point in your paper you will need to identify how organization will compare viable vendor solutions to resolve their issue. What are must haves for the organization (see appendix A sample in doc sharing) when choosing a vendor solution? You must explain and how the organization will rank each of the objectives and why they have determined that one objective is more important to the organization than the others. It can be helpful to consider the data that will be inputted into the system and the data that will be extracted (reports, studies, etc.).
Discussion of Healthcare Application System Solutions This section should indicate at least three possible solutions to the problems, issues, or opportunities. The advantages and disadvantages of each solution should be discussed against a set of weighted objectives, established in the previous section and supported from current literature. The results of the evaluation must be presented in Appendix B.
You should be focusing on three viable solutions that could be utilized by the organization. Research the solutions and notate how solutions perform in business settings. How have other healthcare organizations utilized the solutions? Are they a trusted solution? What are some of the challenges the solution may have? How is the solution supported by the vendor? In summary this section should indicate at least three possible solutions to the problems, issues, or opportunities. Discuss the articles you read and the three options identified as possible solutions to the business problem faced by the organization. The advantages and disadvantages of each solution should be discussed against a set of weighted objectives; support from current literature is expected. In addition, please include your references page, listing the references identified in your research (minimum of seven).
