An excellent example of a hand <br /> generated processes is the purchasing process described in <br /> more detail below. This results in significant delays in timing <br /> to accomplish operations' activities. Some IS systems are <br /> available but are not used to the extent possible. This all <br /> results in excessive costs to the schools. <br /> File information is often not complete and files are not <br /> interactive. This results in duplicate entry of simple <br /> , information such as address changes. <br /> A well designed system architecture recommended above <br /> would overcome many of these IS operations problems. <br /> 3.2 PersonnelMuman Resource Management <br /> A substantive portion of personnel activity, including hiring/firing <br /> and evaluation of both instructional and operations personnel will be <br /> done at the school level.
