Question
Chapter 10.9, Problem 1CTQ
Program Plan Intro
Problem solving process:
- The decision making phase of problem solving is been divided into three phases:
- Intelligence:
- It denotes first stage of decision making.
- The potential problems or chances are been defined in this stage.
- Design:
- It denotes second stage of decision making.
- The alternative solutions are been developed to problem and feasibility is evaluated.
- Choice:
- It denotes third stage of decision making.
- It requires choosing an action course.
- Intelligence:
- The problem solving process goes outside decision making and includes other stages too.
- The stages involved in problem-solving process after decision making is shown below:
- Implementation stage:
- It denotes fourth stage of problem-solving.
- A solution is been put into effect in this stage.
- Monitoring stage:
- It denotes final stage of problem-solving.
- The decision makers assess implementation.
- Implementation stage:
Group support system:
- It facilitates communication and data exchange between employees making important decisions.
- It denotes a set of techniques, software, and technology designed to focus and enhance communication and decision-making of groups.
- It denotes interactive computer-based
information systems that supports and structure group interaction. - A collaboration software class is been used for moving groups through steps of a process towards their goals.
