ASSIGNMENT
An organization has been experiencing frequent lost in every end of the
year performance appraisal that to it manual way of operations as a
system analyze or programmer employed into this organization. What
kind of advice will you give this organization in order to improve.

Firstly, What Is the Role of a System Analyst

1
One of the roles of a systems analyst is to study an organization’s
existing system and implement a new one for better performance and
productivity. A systems analyst may advise the employer on the
software suitable for the company, implement it after approval and help
team members adapt to the new system. If you possess computer skills
and enjoy working with software applications, this may be the right
career path for you.
As a computer system, there are several pieces of advice I can give
to the organization to improve its productivity and reduce losses due to
manual operations. Here is some recommendation.
SECURITY MEASURES
Advice the organization to implement robust security measures to
protect sensitive data and prevent unauthorized access. This include
measures like data encryption, regular backups, strong access controls,
and employee awareness training on cybersecurity best practices.
IT INFRASTRUCTURE
Access the organization’s IT infrastructure and recommend necessary
upgrades or improvement to support the proposed computer systems.
This could involve upgrading hardware, improving network capabilities,
or enhancing server capacity to accommodate the new systems and
ensure optimal performance.
CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT
Advocate for a culture of continuous improvement within the
organization. Encourage regular assessment of process, feedback
collection from employees and customers, and periodic system updates
to ensure that the organization stays aligned with industry best practices
and technological advancement.
2
AUTOMATE PROCESSES
Propose the implementation of computerized system and automation
tools to replace manual processes. This could involve introduction
enterprise resources planning (ERP) software, customer relationship
management (CRM) systems, or project management tools, depending
on the specific needs of the organization.
CUSTOMIZED SOLUTION
Develop customized software or application tailored to the
organization’s requirements. This could involve creating solution for
inventory management, order processing, billing or any other critical
areas where losses are occurring.
DATA ANALYSIS
Emphasize the importance of data analysis in improving decision
making processes. Implement systems that capture and analyze data
related to the organization operations, such as sales data, customer
feedback, or performance metrics. This will enable the organization to
identify trends, make informed decisions, and address issue proactively.
SOME RESPONSIBILITIES OF SYSTEMS ANALYST IN AN
ORGANIZATION
The following are the responsibilities of a systems analyst:
 Enhances computer and software systems for the company

 Maintain data warehouse and data storage systems.
 Review and assess the efficiency and effectiveness of a company's
current system.
 Collaborate with departmental heads and employees to decide
which system requirements to maintain.
3
 Improve designs based on user demand.
 Stay within budget when implementing the system.
 Build new systems that fix issues on the current system.
 Create analysis reports to convince management on the cost
benefits of proposed upgrades.
 Assist the IT team in implementing approved new systems.
 Ensure new systems are working efficiently through testing and
troubleshooting.
 Head training programs or draft documents to instruct employees
on how to use the new systems
ROLES OF A SYSTEM ANALYST

The primary role of a systems analyst is to study the problems and
needs of an organization in order to determine how people, methods, and
information technology can best be combined to bring about
improvements in the organization. A systems analyst helps system users
and other business managers define their requirements for new or
enhanced information services. Systems analysts are key to the systems
development process. To succeed as a system analyst, you will need to
develop four type of skills.
 Analytical
 Technical
 Managerial
 Interpersonal.

ANALYTICAL SKILLS
Enable you to understand the organization and its functions, to identify
opportunities and problems, and to analyze and solve problem. One of
the most important analytical skills you can develop is systems thinking,
or the ability to see organizations and information systems as systems.
Systems thinking provides a framework from which to see the important
relationships among information systems, the organizations they exist in,
and the environment in which the organizations themselves exist.
TECHNICAL SKILLS
Help you understand the potential and the limitations of information
technology. As an analyst, you must be able to envision an information
system that will help users solve problems and that will guide the
system’s design and development. You must also be able to work with
programming languages such as C++ and Java, various operating
systems such as Windows and Linux, and computer hardware platforms
such as IBM and Mac.
MANAGEMENT SKILLS
help you manage projects, resources, risk, and change.
INTERPERSONAL SKILLS
help you work with end users as well as with other analysts and
programmers. As a systems analyst, you will play a major role as a
liaison among users, programmers, and other systems professionals.
STEPS USED BY COMPUTER SYSTEM ANALYST IN
DEVELOPING AN ORGANISATION
1. Requirements Determinations
2. Requirements Specifications
3. Feasibility Analysis
4. Final Specifications
5
5. Hardware Study
6. System Design
7. System Implementation
REQUIREMENTS DETERMINATION
This is the stage that involves determining the Application with the
highest priority among Applications outlined by an organization. The
Application chosen is arrived at as a result of consensus among
Managers.
REQUIREMENTS SPECIFICATION
Also known as System Requirements Specification (SRS)This is the
understanding of the existing System Applications and where a system is
required are listed. Arrive at the specifications of the users’
Requirements after discussions with the user. Also, a system may
encompass several applications.
FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS
A feasibility study is a test of a system proposal according to its
workability. Impact on the organization, ability to meet user needs, and
effective use of resources. It consists of Technical, Operational,
Schedule and Economical.
FINAL SPECIFICATIONS
Specifications would state what the system would achieve.
Specifications drawn up are improved for implementation. Finally, SRS
written would be given to user and an agreement is reached.
HARDWARE STUDY
Determine Hardware and Software required to execute the application.
Determine Response time, Volume of data to be processed, Frequency
of reports and then pick the hardware.
6
SYSTEM DESIGN
This stage involves Logical Design of the System, identifying Objects,
Database Design, Program Specification, Implementation and Test Plan
SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION
This stage includes Writing Programs (Coding), Create Database,
Document System, Train Users, Trial run of the system etc.
CONCLUSION ON THE IMPACT OF COMPUTER ANALYST

So, in conclusion, we can say that system analysis is a problem-solving
strategy that includes glimpsing at the more extensive system, breaking
the separated parts, and sorting out how it works to accomplish a
specific objective. It is also a significant in improving an organization’s
productivity growth. By addressing the frequent losses caused by
manual operations, the system analyst can bring a positive change.
