Agile Development
Rapid prototyping Used for:
Unclear or rapidly changing requirements Speedy development
Heavy user input Incremental delivery with short time frames Tend to have integration problems

DSS Prototyping
Advantages
User and management involvement Learning explicitly integrated Prototyping bypasses information requirement Short intervals between iterations Low cost Improved user understanding of system
Disadvantages
Changing requirements May not have thorough understanding of benefits and costs Poorly tested Dependencies, security, and safety may be ignored High uncertainty Problem may get lost Reduction in quality Higher costs due to multiple productions

Change Management
Crucial to DSS People resistant to change Examine cause of change May require organizational culture shift Lewin-Schein change theory steps
Unfreeze
Create awareness of need for change People support what they help create
Move
Develop new methods and behaviors Create and maintain momentum
Refreeze
Reinforce desired changes Establish stable environment

DSS
Hardware
PCs to multiprocessor mainframes
Software
Involves multiple criteria Develop in house, outsource, or buy off the shelf Off the shelf software rapidly updated; many on market Prices fluctuate Different tools available

DSS
Team developed DSS requires substantial effort to build and manage End user developed DSS
Decision-makers and knowledge workers develop to solve problems or enhance productivity
Advantages
Short delivery time User requirements specifications are eliminated Reduced implementation problems Low costs
Risks
Quality may be low May have lack of documentation Security risks may increase
