Financial Situation of the Enterprise

It is necessary to define the economical feasibility of the project, to avoid the expenses that will not return in a benefit for the enterprise. It is needed to make an economical analysis, since one of the main objectives and benefits of DSS is the reduction in costs, and it would be a shame to implement a system that will not provide it.

The process of change should be an integrated task of the organization. It should influence it, as no changes can be done successfully without the participation of the interested parties. There are different methods that collaborate with the change in the organization, and they are classic and generic, and their work is the organization of working teams, better practices and the most useful tools in an organization: training and communication.

If we consider the last two points, it is important to develop an adequate planning for the implementation of DSS, in which it has to be taken into account each factor that will have a bearing on the management and developing of DSS, where technical, economical, operational and human factors will intervene.

Finally, the success in the implementation of DSS will depend on how the organization faces up, the degree of compromise and the efficiency of the tools of DSS, the way in which the system will be able to generate results from the entries.

It is important to remark that the outcome of a system is the product of the quality of the entries. If the information that will be entered is not structured adequately, the outcome would not mean a lot for the process of decision making, and instead of enforcing the process, this will be weaken and affected, which will lead to disastrous results.

The decisions made based on DSS will be totally inconsistent with the reality of the organization and all the resources invested and used will be a total waste. Therefore, it is necessary to define and comply properly with the planning of the development and implementation of DSS in order to provide the organization with an effective competitive advantage.

Conclusion

Nowadays, an enterprise looks like a desperately competitive advantage that provides the necessary power to continue operating in the current times. Those advantages may be based on the decisions made in the operational environment of each organization, in order to reach the best result, DSS is very useful.

These tools are efficient for helping the managers in the decision making processes, but they should improve the capacity to make those tools work properly, and it has to generate a correct information structure. Besides, doing an adequate use of the said structure during the process of feeding the systems with data.

The generation of DSS is not the only solution for the many problems of the companies, but also for all the design phases, implementation, interpretation and implementation of the DSS tools. The work is performed by many people, where the communication of the way that the system will work and how it will collaborate to reach the objectives is essential for the good use of DSS and the development of the organization.

Once implemented, it is not enough to have and use it from time to time, it is necessary to use it until it becomes a competitive advantage that represents a way to win markets and attack the problems with the bases and not with inconsistent information due to the lack of structure on the information.
