You must write a report on the application
of an information system in a specific business.

Plagerismfree!

You should choose a company or organization
and investigate a particular information system used by it – the system could
be an ERP, a transaction processing system, a CRM system, a POS system etc. 

The work must include business name, sector it
operates in and system used (therefore custom-built proprietary systems are not
allowed). 

At the very least, the report must include the problem faced by the
company, the software system chosen as a solution and how the system helped
resolve the problem.

The report could also include information on implementation
duration, implementation process or difficulties encountered, possible staff
issues faced (e.g. training, redundancy, ethical), post-implementation
performance etc. The approach is that of a short case study.
