Description
The purpose of the system is
called its mission.
In the broadest sense,
To provide a solution to a
business problem
Mission of the System
 Must be clearly stated by
business management and
stakeholders
 Represents the start point of
the design process
 Provides the basis for the
ultimate test of the system’s
fitness-for-purpose
10Dr.P.Karthikeyan, Associate Professor – IT, TCE, Madurai
Definition of a system
Narrowing the
definition of a system
has two major
implications:
First
The systems
elements,
interconnections and
boundary are not
accidental but result
from deliberate design
(engineering).
Second
A system must be
managerially and
operationally
independent
