Identify the three activities in project identification and selection. Describe at least one step in each activity

What will be an ideal response?


Project identification and selection consists of three primary activities: 1. Identifying potential development projects; 2. Classifying and ranking IS development projects; 3. Selecting IS development projects. Organizations vary as to how they identify projects. This process can be performed by a key member of top management, a steering committee, user departments, systems analyst or the development group/senior IS manager. The final activity in the project identification and selection process is the actual selection of projects for further development. Project selection is a process of considering both short- and long-term projects and selecting those most likely to achieve business objectives.
