To be successful in implementing DSS, organizations should have the following characteristics except: A. a well-controlled data-processing system B. willingness to commit dollars and personnel to the project. C. education and training by the organization D. powerful central computer groups to initiate and manage system projects E. all of the above are important

a well-controlled data-processing system
willingness to commit dollars and personnel to the project.
education and training by the organization
powerful central computer groups to initiate and manage system projects E. all of the above are important

The correct answer is: D. powerful central computer groups to initiate and manage system projects.

A DSS is a computer-based system that helps decision-makers analyze data and make better decisions. To be successful in implementing a DSS, organizations should have the following characteristics:

  • A well-controlled data-processing system. This means that the organization has a system in place for collecting, storing, and managing data. The data should be accurate, complete, and up-to-date.
  • Willingness to commit dollars and personnel to the project. Implementing a DSS can be a costly and time-consuming process. Organizations need to be willing to invest the necessary resources to make the project a success.
  • Education and training by the organization. Employees need to be trained on how to use the DSS effectively. This training should cover the basics of how to use the system, as well as how to interpret the results of the analysis.

Powerful central

computer groups are not necessary for implementing a DSS. In fact, many DSSs are designed to be used by non-technical users. The most important factor is that the organization has a system in place for collecting, storing, and managing data.
