Excerpt from The Project Selection Bias Against Management Support Systems: September 1982
In the companies studied the overall demand for new systems was 274% larger than i/s's capacity to supply. This level of demand is unlikely to be met in the near future, either by attempts at increased programmer productivity or by incremental increases to the new systems development budget. This inability to meet user demand stresses the importance of determining which systems should be developed and therefore the importance of a suitable method of assigning priorities for system development.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the bias against management support systems (MSS) in project approval processes within companies. The author argues that current methods favor transaction processing systems (TPS), which are better suited for evaluating specific system types. MSS, on the other hand, are often rejected due to their qualitative benefits and difficulty to quantify. The author proposes a dual-track approach to project evaluation, distinguishing between TPS and MSS. This revised process would ensure a fair and balanced assessment of both system types, addressing the current bias and allowing valuable MSS to be developed. These insights are crucial for companies seeking to allocate scarce resources effectively and leverage the full potential of information systems in supporting managerial decision-making.
