MB0047- MANAGEMENT
INFORMATION SYSTEM
1 Professor A. Van Cauwenbergh of
Antwerp University, in a paper presented at the Tenth Anniversary Conference of
the European Institute for Advanced Studies in Management, presented four
revisions to traditional Management Theory. In summary, the revisions are:
(1) The initiative for the
renewal and adjustment of the activities of a firm should come from the
different levels in the management hierarchy. “Strategy is not a privilege of
top management”.
(2) Firms, especially big firms,
are incoherent systems (goals of the different component systems are not simply
subdivisions of an overall goal; there are individual, conflicting goals as
well).
Some of these differences are
manifestations of organizational initiative and vitality. Using information
systems and central planning and rule-making to suppress all differences is
destructive to organizations.
(3) The most vital “fluid” of an
enterprise is the aggregate of its entrepreneurial values. The most fundamental
and motivation and control come through these shared values relative to work,
quality, efficiency, etc. Management often neglects these values and assumes
that the collection and dissemination of information will provide sufficient
motivation and control.
(4) Enterprises are open systems;
their structure and operating processes are determined by their environment.
This means organizations must be designed to continually adjust to the
environment.

3. Microsoft Project AMS
The company
AMS is a global business and IT
consulting firm to the government, financial services, and communications
industries. AMS applies both proprietary and partner technologies and provides
solutions through business consulting, system integration, and outsourcing.
Founded in 1970, AMS is headquartered in Fairfax, Virginia, and has offices
worldwide. The company has approximately 6300 employees.
The challenge
Several years ago, AMS developed
an internal project management system called Project in a Box. Based on Lotus
Notes, the homegrown system was becoming inefficient and costly to operate,
particularly because it was designed as a standalone, non-collaborative
product. When a new consulting project was set up, a new instance of the
database was created, leading to a chaotic system with literally hundreds of
separate databases.
Without any kind of centralised
information sharing, it was difficult to use information from one project on
another project. The system also prevented AMS’s managers from viewing
companywide metrics, such as project completion rates and whether projects were
being completed on time and on budget. AMS’s executives needed a system to
allow them to have a portfolio view of the health of the company’s projects in
progress. A collaborative project management system would allow AMS managers
to:
Measure project performance and
Earned Value Metrics (EVM) allowing for improvements in on-time and on-budget
delivery to customers
Standardise processes
Understand the impact of task
dependencies within complex projects
Share information across
different product lines
The strategy
Many AMS project managers were
already using Microsoft Project as a desktop application, developing project
plans and Work Breakdown Structures (WBS) on their individual PCs. However,
these individual installations were not networked together and did not feed
critical project performance information to executives.
Therefore, in October 2002, when
AMS began the vendor selection process for a company-wide project management
solution, Microsoft Project was the natural choice, both because many internal
users were already experienced with the application’s scheduling and planning
functionality and because Microsoft offered the best price point.
In March 2003, AMS chose
Microsoft as its project management software vendor and began a pilot
programme. In June 2003, AMS selected the public sector product engineering
group as the first department to begin the pilot programme. AMS divided this initial
pilot programme into four distinct phases:
Phase 1: In early July, AMS
installed Microsoft Project for and trained 15-20 project managers working on a
common product line.
Phase 2: In late August, AMS
expanded the installation to 170 people in another product line within the same
group.
Phase 3: In late September, AMS
rolled out Project’s decision support capabilities to ten executives, allowing
them to mine data for reporting purposes.
Phase 4: If the pilot is
successful, AMS will expand the Project programme to 4,000 Users Companywide in
a staged rollout.
Key benefit areas
With the pilot programme well
under way, AMS is already seeing benefits from Microsoft Project. The system
has helped AMS to meet its goal of creating a more collaborative project
management system that allows managers to view metrics and create schedules
with a view of resources across projects and across the entire organisation.
The collaborative nature of Microsoft Project Server allows team members, team
leaders, and project managers to complete EVM reporting more quickly, leading
to more available time for billable hours. The quantifiable benefits from the
Microsoft Project deployment include:
Productivity gains from automated
weekly reporting process. Consultants and developers now spend less time each
week creating weekly status and performance reports, leading directly to more
time available for billable hours.
Productivity gains from automated
EVM analysis. Team leaders and project managers now spend less time processing
and analysing status and performance reports from team members, allowing them
to also have more time available for billable hours.
The Microsoft Project deployment
also allows AMS project managers to get a better sense of project status
metrics in real time. This leads to fewer project budget and cost overruns,
because project managers can quickly make adjustments to keep projects
profitable.
Key cost areas
The largest cost area for AMS’s
deployment of Microsoft Project was the software license cost, making up 63% of
the total cost of the project. Other cost areas over the 3-year period included
consulting, training, ongoing maintenance, and personnel costs associated with
the everyday use of the system.
Lessons learnt
Overall, AMS’s Microsoft Project
implementation went smoothly. AMS’s managers attribute the project’s success to
their careful planning and staged pilot programme approach. AMS’s managers
recommend that companies considering similar implementations should not
underestimate the change management necessary to make
Microsoft Project work
effectively. Project managers, especially those without PMI certifications,
will often need to undergo training on how to build effective WBS’s, how to
plan and schedule complex projects, and how to adjust WBS’s to changing project
conditions.
A successful Microsoft Project
implementation also requires a high level of communication between team members
and project managers. This is especially important with regard to communicating
the inputs, steps, expected output, and dependencies of complex business
processes.
AMS’s managers also recommended
that companies carefully look at their internal processes for building WBS’s,
especially the ones for complex projects that require more than 500 tasks. Some
of AMS’s projects contained upwards of 2500 tasks, which was well above
Microsoft Project’s practical limit of 500 tasks for a single project.
Calculating the ROI
Nucleus Research analysed the
costs of software, personnel, consulting, and training over a 3-year period to
quantify AMS’s investment in Microsoft Project. Direct and indirect benefits
were also quantified over a 3-year period. Direct benefits quantified included
productivity gains for both team members and team leaders when creating EVM
reports.
Because AMS was an early adopter
and because it agreed to participate in trade shows and in marketing ventures,
the company received consulting services from Microsoft at no cost, though AMS
did use internal consultants for a portion of the implementation.
Companies currently considering
Microsoft Project for similar enterprise implementations must take consulting
costs into account when evaluating potential ROI. Benefits not quantified
because of the early stage of AMS’s Project deployment included reduced project
budget and schedule overruns. However, Nucleus recommends that companies
considering Microsoft Project evaluate this potential benefit.

4 Effective implementation of
maintenance management in Quarta Technologies Quarta Technologies is a leading
manufacturing company in Bhopal. It manufactures six million tubes a year. Each
year, production shuts down for few weeks allowing capital investment projects
and deep maintenance to be performed. These include process changes and a
variety of maintenance activities are executed.
The Challenge
Ramping up to full production
capacity after the shut sown was a slow process with attendant quality issues.
The equipments used in this organisation were used for several years before it
was either discarded or replaced with a similar new machine. From the time the
equipment were brought, the production and maintenance personnel accumulated
considerable knowledge about the equipment, the manner in which failures occur
and the symptoms that it develops before a particular failure or malfunctioning
happen. The organisation recognised an opportunity to reduce the quality costs
of the annual shutdowns by planning and troubleshooting techniques.
The Solution
The organisation, worked with the
plant leadership to improve project and risk management skills by introducing
the common process. A progressive learning was done with respect to equipment
usage and systematically captures many types of information and put to use. One
method was to develop good trouble shooting mechanisms. This mechanism was a
structured approach to identify the root cause of the problem that needs some
correction when viewed from the maintenance. By successively checking on a set
of condition about the equipment, several alternatives pertaining to the
possible problematic areas will get eliminated and progressively narrows down
to a few. Once this stage is reached, it is possible to conduct a detailed
analysis to locate the problem and take corrective measures.
This helped the organisation to
implement trouble shooting techniques which reduce the shutdown period and a
total of 110 distinct maintenance projects and capital investments were
managed. It also eliminated schedule conflicts that would have caused delays.
This technique helped them to achieve their goals, ramping up faster to full
production and improved team corporation.
What was the challenge faced by
Quarta Technologies? What steps were taken by them to reduce it?

5 This is a case study about an
airline. It states that how at the initial stages the airline was not
functioning properly and could not achieve customer satisfaction but however
after the implementation of Total Quality Management (TQM), the company
prospered.
Bryan air airlines started in
year 1988 with only 67 employees and with one 18 seater turboprop plane from
the south of east of Chelsea to London-Gatwick which carried 5000 passengers on
one route (Harrison, 2002). In 1990-1991, the company had 700,000 passengers.
However, in spite of the raise of
passengers, the company could not manage cost that the company had lost its
money during the expansion of the business. The management decided to bring a
brand new management team which suggested a re-launch of the airlines as a “low
fares or no frills” airline, closely modelling the Southwest Airlines model in
the U.S.
In addition, there was another
problem related to quality service. Since it was a “low fares or no frills”
airline it could not cater to the customer needs. So the company decided to use
TQM and a strategic plan where both the internal and external customers will be
given importance and all the main focus will be customer satisfaction. Hence
the strategic option that was used by the company for satisfying both internal
and external customers and marketing environment was used to attain total
quality management.
Hence by implementing TQM and
strategic planning the company could satisfy both the clients and the customer.
Now Bryan air is one of the leading airlines in the world.
Identify the steps taken by the
airline company which made them one of the leading airlines in the world.
