In-House Issue of the Enrollment System
June 25, 2009What do you think is/are the reasons why the university decided to tapped in-house resources, was it a good decision
Its not unusual that the University should decide to use its in-house resource at this time because as the global crisis also alarm every humanity to spend wisely even though only big companies are getting pressure on this issue, we on the lower and middle rank must also be conscious before its too late. There are many reasons to formulate if you would analyze the situation of the university that decided them to use the in-house resource and behind this all critic that I formulated I stated that as a student we should also be aware of what the reason behind all these issue and there are no other intention to point any thing wrong of this paper just to help and clarify all the rubbles of issue. To start with these discussion we had already our sharing about these issue on the enrollment system of the university as a part also of our subject SAD1(System Analysis and Design) its part of our learning to analyze the system and its design that cover the enrollment system. The issue had been freely debate by student under the subject of SAD1, the in-house resource versus the outsourcing many complements and answer formulated. Outsourcing means getting outside the university on the other hand In-House from the word itself IN means inside the university making the available source to be resource, and now to continue the issue in our SAD2 we must define and concentrate more on the root of all this issue.
To begin my hypothesis the first thing that came to my mind that the university decided to change from outsourcing to in-house was that the Budget, I think it is the primary reason why the university decide to shift its source because instead of spending its money to maintain the system why wouldn’t try to make use the available resources inside the university apparently there are great teacher and software engineers in the campus one of those is our professor. Allocating the fund in maintaining the system cost lot of bucks and also my follow up question also follow that, does the university satisfy the late system?, do student appreciate its process?, this question also follow to the current system. These are only simple question that are formulated if you would analyze the whole enrollment system, is it worthy to change the outsourcing to in-house? Maybe because the company offer to the university enrollment system has so many errors, the performance doesn’t satisfy to the user of the system also chain to the student and the staff of university. It involves under the sun issue if would talk about the late enrollment system. Its so questionable that the university so hasty decided to change the system last year, basically our instructor decided us to leave with other instructor so that he would be able to focus on their project namely the enrollment system. Time, is a great factor to be consider also when making decision, did the university ever think of it?, there are lot of risk considering the time involvement if ever it would change to in-house. Upon the days had been passed and the in-house project system are already implemented in the university there are many cases of issue about the newly system because there are so many errors reported by many student and I’ve witnessed of the weak side of the system, like in adding subject instead of paying the tuition fee of the subject the only assessment that the student pay is the adding fee. These only explain that the system are not fully fixed and errors are clearly testified by its end-user, maybe the only reason is that the time alloted to the developer of the project are not sufficient because if you would account to the developer of the system it takes time and process to make a Fully Functional System, and as far I am concern the project was started only just last year by two great instructor from Institute of Computing (IC).
If I would able to outline primary reason why did the university so hasty decided to tapped in-house resources is that the Budget. It is the primary reason why I think the university change so swiftly to in-house because there are lot of project that the university is aiming in this school year and allocating its fund to enrollment system would not be able to success their waiting project. As you can see also there are output of the allocated budget there are repairs of the newly building and also the school railings l are change, hope they would also be able to see the IC which there are lot of new fresh student would apply in the college.
To sum it all I think the university do great decision in changing from outsourcing to in-house because it is also good to recognize the faculties of the university because I think there are great instructor inside the campus which only need a recognition from the head. They didn’t only save money but would able to allocate the funds to the right resources hope that they would decide proper because time also involve to it like what happened to the current system though several errors occur its not bad that the developer of the program finish the project even only on time allocated to them.
