Systems Proposal
In order to prepare the systems proposal analysts must use a systematic approach to:•Ascertain hardware and software needs.
•Identify and forecast costs and benefits.
•Compare costs and benefits.
•Choose the most appropriate alternative.

Ascertaining Hardware and Software Needs
Steps used to determine hardware and software needs:
• Inventory computer hardware currently available.
•Estimate current and projected workload for the system.
•Evaluate the performance of hardware and software using some predetermined criteria.
•Choose the vendor according to the evaluation.
•Obtain hardware and software from the vendor.

Break-Even Analysis
•Break-even analysis is the point at which the cost of the current system and the proposed system intersect.
•Break-even analysis is useful when a business is growing and volume is a key variable in costs.
![Page 33: MELJUN CORTES SAD ch10](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042601/5559ec03d8b42a34498b52ac/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

•Determine when cash outlays and revenues will occur for both:•The initial purchase.•Over the life of the information system.
![Page 37: MELJUN CORTES SAD ch10](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042601/5559ec03d8b42a34498b52ac/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Present Value Method
•Way to assess all the economic outlays and revenues of the information system over its economic life and to compare costs today with future costs and today's benefits with future benefits.
•Use present value when the payback period is long, or when the cost of borrowing money is high.
![Page 38: MELJUN CORTES SAD ch10](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042601/5559ec03d8b42a34498b52ac/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)

Selecting the Best Alternative
Guidelines to select the method for comparing alternatives:•Use break-even analysis if the project
needs to be justified in terms of cost, not benefits.
•Use payback when the improved tangible benefits form a convincing argument for the proposed system.
![Page 39: MELJUN CORTES SAD ch10](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042601/5559ec03d8b42a34498b52ac/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Kendall & Kendall

Selecting the Best Alternative
Guidelines to select the method for comparing alternatives (continued)•Use cash-flow analysis when the
project is expensive, relative to the size of the company.
•Use present value when the payback period is long or when the cost of borrowing money is high.
