From a business perspective, you have to decide whether the business really needs the system. From a technical perspective, you have to assess the quality of the system and its related support software and hardware. You then use a combination of the business value and the system quality to take one of the following informed decisions: scrap the system, re- engineer the system, replace the system, continue the system's maintenance. Your task is to assess legacy systems in your organization and decide what would be the most appropriate strategy for maintaining these systems. i, Discuss possible factors you would use when assessing the technical quality of the legacy system. ii.
