Question

Assume that you are working at Technology Solutions Inc. as a senior system analyst. Currently, the systems review committee of your company is dealing with strong disagreements and arguments about two key projects:

  1. Saim Mehmud, the marketing manager, says it is vital to have a new computerized reservation system that will improve customer service and reduce operational costs.
  2. Taha Tariq, director of finance, is equally adamant that a new finance and accounting system is needed immediately, because it will be very expensive to adjust the current system to new government reporting requirements.

What do you think, which project needs to be approved first and why?
