1. The most common form of IT-enabled organizational change is automation.
   
2. Rationalization of procedures describes a radical rethinking of the business models.
   
3. Failure to address properly the organizational changes surrounding the introduction of a
   new system can cause the demise of an otherwise good system.
   
4. TQM describes the measurement of quality as 3.4 defects per million.
   
5. Thorough testing is not required if, during the programming stage, the design documents
   are sufficiently detailed.
   
6. The system is not in production until conversion is complete.
   
7. Documentation reveals how well the system has met its original objectives.
   
8. A data flow diagram offers a logical and graphical model of information flow,
   partitioning a system into modules that show manageable levels of detail.
   
9. A structure chart is a bottom-up chart, showing each level of design, its relationship to
   other levels, and its place in the overall design structure.
   
10. Object-oriented development is more incremental than traditional structured development.
    
11. Objects are grouped into hierarchies, and hierarchies into classes.
    
12. CASE tools facilitate the creation of clear documentation and the coordination of team
    development efforts.
    
13. The oldest method for building information systems is prototyping.
    
14. Prototyping is more iterative than the conventional lifecycle.
    
15. A problem with prototyping is that the systems constructed using this method may not be
    able to handle large quantities of data in a production environment.
    
16. End-user-developed systems can be completed more rapidly than those developed
    through the conventional systems lifecycle.
    
17. One advantage of fourth-generation tools is that they can easily handle processing large
    numbers of transactions or applications with extensive procedural logic and updating
    requirements.
    
18. In some forms of outsourcing, a company hires an external vendor to create the software
    for its system, but operates the software on its own computers.
    
19. Hidden costs typically increase the total cost of an offshore outsourcing project by an
    extra 50 to 75 percent.
