Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the role of decision support systems (DSS) in modern management practices, particularly focusing on the challenges of evaluating and justifying the implementation of DSS. The author argues that traditional cost-benefit analysis is not well-suited to DSS due to the qualitative and uncertain nature of their benefits. Instead, the author proposes a value analysis methodology that focuses on identifying and assessing the qualitative benefits of a DSS before determining its cost, thereby reducing risk and increasing innovation. The book also discusses the dynamics of innovation in general and how they relate to DSS development, emphasizing the role of uncertainty reduction and the importance of early adopters in driving innovation. The author concludes by highlighting the significance of value analysis as a systematic methodology for assessing the value of innovations, particularly in the context of DSS development.
