Editor's Notes

  • #12 Typical steps in the development of new or modifying and existing HRIS Notice the overlap, some work on next steps can begin while other phase completed. Phase containment--identify potential problems early in the development process. The earlier you identify, the much less costly it will be down the road. Eg. Payroll miscalculations due to improper systems test (either under or over paying)--either way costly to org. Ceriello book doesn’t identify Analysis as a step; it appears he lumps Analysis into the Planning phase. Planning: where are we, where we going, what do we need to do to get there Analysis:study exist systems/gaps; requirements; BPR Design:Design in greater detail specific functions; determine/design best system (new or modified) Implementation: Build, test and rollout system (coding/configure, convert data) Maintenance/evaluate:
