In the beginning a process oriented approach was utilized. Each separate application had its own data files. The applications automated the manual systems on which they were modeled. In an effort to improve its information systems. They then renovated its information systems, resulting in a company wide database and applications that work with this database. Then the primarily use was in the accounting and financial areas.

I believe the company chose this option because it was the most convenient and easiest way to operate, train staff and keep the business organized and running smoothly. However the primary use being in accounting and financial areas is good, however also implementing a sales and production area would be ideal as well, in order to track and keep record of what pieces sell the most, the increases in demand and so on. Also they may have wanted charts and graphs as records for years of sales, when the down season is, if there is one, and they could also have used a program to keep closer track on employees such as hours, dedication, evaluations and so on in order to better accommodate the hard workers.

...Business Professor at Macomb Community College. Review the Sample Job Description and answer all of the following: 1. Where would you recruit? Give at least 3 sources and why you chose them. * The first place I would recruit would be internally. I chose this method first because what better place than to recruit directly from professionals who are connected with other professionals of the like. More than likely, someone knows someone who is looking for employment in the same field. Traditionally, companies use this method to promote from within; however, I believe this method can be used for more than this intended purpose. The network is already in place to gain a proper prospective pool of candidates, and it is a great way to utilize word of mouth. * The second place I would look to recruit would be directly through the school’s website. More times than not, professionals who are looking for employment will look directly to the companies they are interested in applying at. I believe this holds especially true for this particular industry. This method also helps to drastically narrow down and weed out any unqualified candidates from applying, which is a big time saver. * Lastly, the third place I would recruit would be through social media websites like LinkedIn or, as I often use in my current profession, Facebook employment groups. These types of sites offer a simple way to advertise job postings quickly to the masses which come at little to no cost at all...
