♥♥What are the two most frequently experienced causes of frustration of IS professionals and users while working on an IS plan? Note: you are required to interview an IS professional/s for your answer♥♥

Computer Division (RMC-CD) is a leading manufacturer of personal computer, and distributor of a complete line of peripherals and other computer related services.

It has been our adopted company in our group for MIS2. Mr. Cris, the MIS head of RMC-CD accommodated us well in the said interview. He has told us about the two most frequently experienced causes of frustration of IS professionals and users while working on an IS plan. We have found out that RMC-CD branch in Davao City has adopted an in-house programmer. The Rhine System, (name of their IS) was developed by their self-employed personnel.

In IS planning, According to Sir Cris, the programmer must choose a programming language that will suits to his capability so that he can make the system effectively. He has mentioned that every database administrator must update from the internet latest advancement in programming. A programmer has to update his knowledge because nowadays technology is fast paced and constant to change.

Sir Cris had told us the different frustrations that he encountered in working with the Information System Plan:

1. System flow or manual procedure- see to it that whatever the customer wants, it is pertinent that he/she must prepare the important things or data needed in a particular project. For an instance, customer wishes for a quality and easy system, it is important to consider the following like manual procedure had been set, there is legal contract between you (programmer) and customer and finalize first the data and reports needed.

2. Cost – see to that the system costing would depend on the quality of a project. Making a system is impossible without financial support. From the hardware to software, all of this has a cost. That's the reason why a company must have good financial capacity to cater expense of systems.

3. Limitation (restriction) – it refers to the time allocated for the system to be finished.

4. Mood- it refers to the behavioral condition of a programmer. Moods might influence the quality and performance of programmers while programming. It is evident from literature that positive and negative moods influence divergent thinking, quantity/quality of ideas and creative problem solving. The programmers' performance and the quality of their work could be affected by their moods when they develop or test an application.
