• Information is the intended output• Data is the main input• Is there a difference?
• There had better be!
10
Data: Objective Measures of Traits of Real-World Objects• Objective
– Not subjective– Replicable

• Aggregation– Groups– Calculations– Manipulations
• Context– Titles– Labels– Rows– Columns
• Usefulness– Decision-Making– Judged by User
12
Information QualitySix Traits• Accuracy• Timeliness• Relevance• Verifiability• Accessibility• Security
13
Cost-Justification
• “Is the system worth its cost?”• Compare “worth” with “cost”• Various Methods
– ROI– Present Value– Cost-Benefit Analysis
14

15
Cost-Benefit AnalysisComplex in Practice
• System Lifespan
• Tangibles vs. Intangibles

non-cost justifications– Organizational culture– Strategic direction– Potential competitive advantage– Environmental Imperatives– Top Management Support
