System Analysis-The town of Eden Bay and a fleet of vehicles
The town of Eden Bay owns and maintains a fleet of vehicles. You are a systems analyst reporting to Dawn, the town’s IT manager.
Background
Eden Bay is a medium-sized municipality. The town has grown rapidly, and so has the demand for town services. Eden Bay currently owns 90 vehicles, which the town’s equipment department maintains. The fleet includes police cars, sanitation trucks, fire trucks, and other vehicles assigned to town employees. The maintenance budget has risen sharply in recent years, and people are ask- ing whether the town should continue to perform its own maintenance or outsource it to private firms.
In the first part of the case, you planned a preliminary investigation for a new information sys- tem that would cut costs and improve maintenance efficiency. Based on your investigation, Dawn wants to move forward, and she asked you to help her present a budget request at the next Town Council meeting. She suggested the following to-do list:
- First, double-check the cost and benefit data we will need for the proposal (3 days).
- Then, start two tasks at the same time: send an e-mail message to the Town Council re-
questing that the proposal be placed on the agenda (1 day), and develop the proposal it-
self, including all necessary documents and charts (5 days). - As soon as the proposal is complete, start work on two tasks at once: print copies of hand-
out material for the meeting (2 days) and develop a PowerPoint presentation (5 days). - When the presentation is ready, conduct a rehearsal for the Council meeting. (2 days).
- Finally, when the rehearsal is done and the handout material is ready, help Dawn deliver
the presentation. (1 day).
Tasks
- Prepare a list showing all tasks and their durations.
- Analyze the fact situation carefully to identify any tasks that are dependent on other tasks.
- Create a PERT chart that shows the project. Use a format similar to Figure 3-27 on
page 110. If project management software is available, use it to develop the chart. - What is the critical path for this project? How do you know?
discussion summary
types of research
Consider your readings about and understanding of quantitative and qualitative research. If you had to choose, which type of research (quantitative or qualitative) do you think is more rigorous and why? Do you think it is useful to make such generalizations and comparisons?
Locate an article describing a qualitative research study related to a health care topic.
Formulate a research question to address the problem and that would lead you to employ correlational statistics.
With information from the Learning Resources in mind, critically analyze your selected study. Ask yourself: How rigorous was the study in terms of the researchers’ efforts, the data collected, and the conclusions drawn? What might the researchers have done to improve the rigor?
Post 1-2 pages cohesive response that addresses the following:
1. Do you think there is one type of research (quantitative or qualitative) that is inherently more rigorous than the other? If so, identify which one and why. If not, discuss your reasoning.
2. Post a brief summary of your research article analysis and the correct APA citation for the article.
3. Outline how the study’s qualitative data collection and analysis did, or did not, promote rigor, provide scientific or systematic scaffolding, and/or generate a more thorough analysis of the research topic.
nation organized crime comes
nation organized crime comes
In most nations is a common knowledge that criminal organization usually thrive well due to their connection with the politic of those nations. In most occasions, the organized crimes usually, control the elections and favor certain politician by either supporting their campaigns or just having a lead on them so that they are able to benefit after the election through getting an allocation of procurement contracts or public works as well as reducing law enforcement on their side. Most of the organized crime groups be it in the United States of America or in other countries usually use pre-electoral violence to achieve two major objectives; one is to use the violence to disrupt the parties that are against the organized crime group and secondly to affect the behavior of the elected politicians once they are in office (Woodiwiss, 2001).
In the USA and in other nation organized crime comes in many ways but the mafia is the most organized group that has been seen in many other countries. Though the mafia has got their root in Italy it is one of the groups that benefited from the political association. In America and in the other nation this groups get themselves into politic through preelection violence as well as financing the politician during the campaign, They practically make deal with the politician who is getting into office so that after the election they are to be rewarded through loyalty as well as having them favored by the laws that are made. In most of the nation most, the laws usually turn a blind eye to this organized crimes groups since they have a personal investment in our political leaders. This has led to so much political corruption in the United States as well as other countries (Alesina, Piccolo, & Pinotti, 2016).
In the United States there is a strong association between organized crime and the United State’s politicians since time immemorial there have been activities that indicate a relationship between organized crime groups and the American politician especially the mafia. This has led to several legislations but still, not all is done away with.
Most of the politician gets influence by the organized crimes group since the groups offer them a lot of money for campaigns, the groups protect their illicit businesses and at the same time the groups offer them protection from their rivals and opponent and this makes them indebted (Woodiwiss, 2001).
Conducting the research on how organised crimes affect the politician will help in identifying the best mean of dealing with the organized crimes groups since we will have a better understand on how the relationship works.
