Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 2 Chapter 5 The Process of Initiating and Planning IS Development Projects The key activity of project initiation is the development of the project charter.  A short document that is prepared for both internal and external stakeholders  Provides a high-level overview of the project  Useful communication tool that helps to assure that the organizations and other stakeholders understand the initiation of a project

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 3 Chapter 5 The Process of Initiating and Planning IS Development Projects (Cont.) The key activity of project planning is the process of defining clear, discrete activities and the work needed to complete each activity within a single project. The objective of the project planning process is the development of a Baseline Project Plan (BPP) and the Project Scope Statement (PSS).

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 4 Chapter 5 Deliverables and Outcomes Business Case  Justification for an information system  Presented in terms of the tangible and intangible economic benefits and costs  The technical and organizational feasibility of the proposed system

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 5 Chapter 5 Deliverables and Outcomes (Cont.) Baseline Project Plan (BPP)  A major outcome and deliverable from the PIP phase  Contains the best estimate of a project’s scope, benefits, costs, risks, and resource requirements

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 6 Chapter 5 Deliverables and Outcomes (Cont.) Project Scope Statement (PSS)  A document prepared for the customer  Describes what the project will deliver  Outlines at a high level all work required to complete the project

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 8 Chapter 5 Assessing Project Feasibility (Cont.) Economic feasibility: a process of identifying the financial benefits and costs associated with a development project  Often referred to as a cost-benefit analysis  Project is reviewed after each SDLC phase in order to decide whether to continue, redirect, or kill a project

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 9 Chapter 5 Determining Project Benefits Tangible benefits refer to items that can be measured in dollars and with certainty. Examples include:  reduced personnel expenses,  lower transaction costs, or  higher profit margins.

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 10 Chapter 5 Determining Project Benefits (Cont.) Most tangible benefits will fit within the following categories:  Cost reduction and avoidance  Error reduction  Increased flexibility  Increased speed of activity  Improvement of management planning and control  Opening new markets and increasing sales opportunities

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 11 Chapter 5 Determining Project Benefits (Cont.) Intangible benefits are benefits derived from the creation of an information system that cannot be easily measured in dollars or with certainty.  May have direct organizational benefits, such as the improvement of employee morale.  May have broader societal implications, such as the reduction of waste creation or resource consumption.

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 12 Chapter 5 Determining Project Costs Tangible cost: a cost associated with an information system that can be measured in dollars and with certainty IS development tangible costs include:  Hardware costs,  Labor costs, or  Operational costs including employee training and building renovations.

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 13 Chapter 5 Determining Project Costs (Cont.) Intangible cost: a cost associated with an information system that cannot be easily measured in terms of dollars or with certainty Intangible costs can include:  Loss of customer goodwill,  Employee morale, or  Operational inefficiency.

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 14 Chapter 5 Determining Project Costs (Cont.) One-time cost: a cost associated with project start-up and development or system start-up These costs encompass activities such as:  Systems development,  New hardware and software purchases,  User training,  Site preparation, and  Data or system conversion.

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 15 Chapter 5 Determining Project Costs (Cont.) Recurring cost: a cost resulting from the ongoing evolution and use of a system Examples of these costs include:  Application software maintenance,  Incremental data storage expenses,  Incremental communications,  New software and hardware leases, and  Supplies and other expenses (i.e. paper, forms, data center personnel).

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 16 Chapter 5 Determining Project Costs (Cont.) Both one-time and recurring costs can consist of items that are fixed or variable in nature. Fixed costs are billed or incurred at a regular interval and usually at a fixed rate. Variable costs are items that vary in relation to usage.

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 17 Chapter 5 Determining Project Costs (Cont.) Procurement  Consulting, equipment, site preparation, capital, management time Start-up  Operating systems, communications installation, personnel hiring, organizational disruption Project-related  Application software, software modification, personnel overhead, training, data analysis, documentation Operating  System maintenance, rental, asset depreciation, operation and planning

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 18 Chapter 5 The Time Value of Money Net Present Value (NPV)  Use discount rate to determine present value of cash outlays and receipts Return on Investment (ROI)  Ratio of cash receipts to cash outlays Break-Even Analysis (BEA)  Amount of time required for cumulative cash flow to equal initial and ongoing investment

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 19 Chapter 5 The Time Value of Money Time value of money (TVM): the concept that money available today is worth more than the same amount tomorrow Discount rate: the rate of return used to compute the present value of future cash flows (the cost of capital) Present value: the current value of a future cash flow

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 20 Chapter 5 The Time Value of Money (Cont.) Net Present Value  PVn = present value of Y dollars n years from now based on a discount rate of i.  NPV = sum of PVs across years.  Calculates time value of money

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 21 Chapter 5 The Time Value of Money (Cont.) Break-even analysis: a type of cost- benefit analysis to identify at what point (if ever) benefits equal costs

24 Cost Terms Total Cost of Ownership (TCO): The total cost of acquiring, installing, maintaining, changing, and getting rid of something across an extended period of time TCO is a life cycle estimate TCO supports decision making when it is likely that all options come with the same benefits and the only differences are on the cost side. TCO analysis shows what an acquisition implies for future spending or budgetary planning Five year TCO for computing equipment can be 3 – 10 times the original purchase price The Gartner Group* reports that nearly 80% of total IT costs occur after purchase and nearly half of these costs are outside the IT budget *Gartner is an information technology research and advisory company providing technology related insight. Research provided by Gartner is targeted at CIOs and senior IT leaders in industry

Total Cost of Ownership Cost Components Hardware acquisitionPurchase price of hardware including computers, terminals, storage and printers Software acquisitionPurchase or license of software for each user InstallationCost to install hardware and software TrainingCost to train IT staff and end-users SupportCost to provide ongoing technical support; help desks, documentation etc InfrastructureCost to acquire, maintain and support related infrastructure such as networks and specialized equipment (including storage and backup units) DowntimeLost productivity if hardware or software failures cause the system to unavailable for processing user tasks Space and energyReal estate and utility costs for hosing and providing power for the technology

26 Cost Terms (cont’d) Cost Item: A spending category for something the company spends money on, including assets, goods, services, and resources of all kinds  Examples: Staff salaries, security service fees, the purchase of computer hardware or software Cost items are line items in budgets and spending plans Most business cases have many cost items and just a few benefit items Typically 80% or more of business case development goes into finding cost items, identifying cost impacts, and measuring and valuing them Cash Flow: Cash that actually flows into or out of the company

27 Overview of the Cost Model Organizes the cost items that belong in the case by category The cost model for a business case dealing with an IT system proposal. Each cell holds cost line items.

28 Line Items for the IT Cost Model Use this model as a guide and for a“brainstorming” workshop with the project team The same cost model should be applied to all scenarios in the case

Copyright © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Prentice Hall 30 Chapter 5 Assessing Other Feasibility Concerns Operational  Does the proposed system solve problems or take advantage of opportunities? Scheduling  Can the project time frame and completion dates meet organizational deadlines? Legal and Contractual  What are legal and contractual ramifications of the proposed system development project? Political  How do key stakeholders view the proposed system?
