dc.description.abstract | Most system development methods, at least in principle, have two important components, namely a modeling language and a process. The modeling languages are graphica l notations for expressing designs and provides easy communication and documentation. The process of the method shows how to do the development process. This thesis uses the Rumbough's OMT (Object Modeling Technique) for the process of the analysis and designing of information support system for SUR Construction S Co. Equipped with th is object oriented methods, the thesis focuses on identifying the requirement of the company, depa rtment by department. And then a special focus is given to the material resource of the company. It has been found that almost every department is concerned with the material resources, and as such it is a decisive object that determines the success or fa ilure of the company. Therefore, the necessary information and operations concerned with this important material has to be identified and des igned so that every department is provided with the kind of information the department requires for decisions making. Many system development efforts are made with very little or no regard to the very important aspect of development process, namely, the documentation. Although system development efforts are made in SUR very recent ly it appears no sufficient documentation for the requirement analysis of the company has been made. As a result, each is an islands of desperate attempts, that failed to come up with a system that can provide an accurate, timely, and relevant information that the management of SUR needs for decision making and control of operation. This thes is uses the UML as ways of communicating and documenting the requirement analysis of the company. Risk and uncertainty are fact of life. SUR are faced with a multitude of different ri sk and uncertainty issues. But the company approaches these unpredictable circumstances of business based on the whims and experiences that can be subject to variation and errors. Hence it is good to col lect the experience of the domain experts of the company on the area and formalize and organize the decisions by clea rly identifying the important variables both control lable and uncontrollable and describe them through a model. And use th is model to forecast how each risk circumstance behaves, to make a better decision that otherw ise would have been cost ly. To this end, th is paper explores the potential of models in bidding for a new project with competitors. | en_US |
