The need for frameworks & models• What is a framework?• A set of ideas for organizing your thoughts
about a thing or situation...• What is a model?• A useful representation of a specific situation or
thing… 2-2
Framework & model, continued...
• Think about object oriented programming…– A framework is like a class definition– A model is like an instantiated object
• What are some frameworks that we encounter?
• Now, let’s think about models…examples?• Let’s turn to the Resumix case to see the WCA
framework in action
2-3

BUSINESS PROCESS
Major Steps:
•Define the criteria for selecting applicants
•Receive résumés
•Scan résumés and extract data
•Select applicants meeting criteria and forward their résumés to the hiring manager
•Send out rejection letters
•Track the hiring process
•Store applicant data for future searches
Rationale:
Instead of finding appropriate candidates by searching through paper résumés,extract the information on the résumés and do the search automatically.

Viewing businesses as systems• Business processes and functional areas of
businesses– The silo model
2-12
Business processes and functional areas of businesses
• Processes that cross functional areas• Processes related to a specific functional area• Processes occurring in every functional area
2-13
Information systems and work systemsInformation systems and work systems
• What kind of system?– Information system– Work system
2-14
Information systems and work systems
• Where are the boundaries between information systems and work systems?– Is this changing?
• Is this a reflection of the changes in the economy to focus on services?
• Do you think that the trend will continue?
2-15
Framework for thinking about systems• Customers
– internal– external– what’s the difference?
• Product– the output of the work system
• Business process– What’s going on in the system– We’ll model this with flow charts and DFD’s
2-17
Framework for thinking about systems
• Technology– This is the part that’s cool, but remember its
place in the puzzle
Perspectives for viewing a work system
2-19
Perspectives for viewing a work system
• You can use the WCA and the five perspectives to gain a better understanding of the work system
• Sort of a “drill down” approach• When I ask you to give me a WCA diagram, I’m
looking for the overall analysis, not all perspectives -- you may want to do these perspectives as you develop your model
2-20
Perspectives for viewing a work systemARCHITECTURE•What are the components of the system that performs the work and who uses the work product?•How are the components linked?•How do the components operate together?
PERFORMANCE•How well do the components operate individually?•How well does the system operate? (How well is the work performed?)•How well should the system operate?
INFRASTRUCTURE•What technical and human infrastructure does the work rely on? •In what ways does infrastructure present opportunities or obstacles?
CONTEXT•What are the impacts of the organizational and technical context?•In what ways does the context present opportunities or obstacles?
RISKS•What foreseeable things can prevent the work from happening, can make the work inefficient, or can cause defects in the work product?•What are the likely responses to these problems?

Table 2.11The 10 Issues in the Work-Centered Analysis Method
Systems analysis step
1. Define the problem
2. Describe the current worksystem in enough depth
and
3. Design potentialimprovements
4.Decide what to do
Corresponding issues for thinking about a system
Issue 1: Problem Definition
Issue 2: Improvements from product changesIssue 3: Improvements from process changesIssue 4: Improvements related to work system participantsIssue 5: Improvements from better informationIssue 6: Improvements from better technologyIssue 7: Improvements from shared infrastructureIssue 8: Improvements related to the business contextIssue 9: Improvements from risk reduction
Issue 10: Recommendation
2-24
• Limitations and issues with the WCA– architecture
• overemphasis on details• confusion about roles
– performance• too often ignored
– infrastructure• you gotta have it! Don’t forget!

Looking at an IT-enabled system from a business perspective
