Some thoughts on the construction of enterprise information system

The recent period of time always feel some pressure, sleep well, often wake up in the middle of the night to think about some work things, maybe really old?

The construction of enterprise information system is confronted with great pressure, which is manifested in many aspects, one is that various demands are complicated, and information system support is needed in all aspects. The second is that the demand changes rapidly, the management becomes more and more sophisticated, which leads to the complexity of the system. , communication and coordination is difficult, the project implementation time is difficult to control; four is the ability of IT personnel and needs are difficult to match, now the information system is both functional coverage, but also to user-centric personalized services, but to meet regulatory audit requirements, while high security, in addition to respond quickly, you think IT staff is God?! (500 words omitted here)

Personal feeling it is the most important point of information construction is not mentioned, it is necessary to highlight, is it itself input and output matching, or facing a large number of project needs when it support business purposes, which reflects the company's IT capabilities. But in reality there are often many problems, such as many projects have no clear goal, or even if the implementation of the people do not know (the purpose is different from the goal, the objective can be more general qualitative, but the goal needs to be clear, measurable results), which leads to the efficiency of information system construction decline, investment and low effect. While the vast majority of companies are unable to fine-tune the management of IT resources to share the cost to the demand Department, the necessary goal measurement can be done, at least to measure the quality and effectiveness of the project, reduce useless projects, and face the project. Who cares about the effectiveness of the project when people forget their goals and do things for themselves? If IT managers and corporate managers do not care about the enterprise information System construction can only enter a vicious circle of dissatisfaction.

The other is about the project of scientific decision-making issues, in the unfinished project must grasp the priorities of the project, how to make decisions? We all know that the company inside everyone is very familiar, there will be human relations and face, if there is no effective means to judge the priorities of the project certainly not. In fact, the establishment of the system, the demand must be clear objectives, quantitative objectives and qualitative purposes, the two are relatively good to do, or to see who voice. It is not much difficult to do pre-assessment and post-mortem evaluation, and the quantitative index contrast is placed there, and there are not too many complaints.

About the project management process is also very important, although there are multiple stages, different teams, to ensure the quality, need to be seen as a team, information to be symmetrical, fully shared, although each paragraph has the main responsible person, but the whole project is the overall responsibility of the team, the goal is consistent, not only to complete their own stage of the task, But to ensure the success of the project. There is a saying is very good, division of labor is to cooperate! If the division of labor, everyone only care about themselves, that division of labor is a failure!
