Question

Give three examples of a business decision for which you would not use a decision support system or any other software. Give three non-business examples. Explain your choices.

Answer 1

BUSINESS EXAMPLE

1)I would prefer not to use it for small business operations that do not have sufficient technical knowledge and resources too.

2)For manufacturing products, we won't be able to establish a perfect mathematical relationship because there are a lot of external factors that affect the profits like shell life of products, new regulations, a competitor of product etc.

3)Predicting the stock price of the company as you don't know when the company's CEO might exit which will result in a sudden downfall or newly launched product of a company failed miserably which will result in the downfall these are some examples which DSS won't be able to keep track.

NON-BUSINESS

1)for NGOs we can't use DSS as anyone can donate any amount at any time its completely according to their wish so we can't predict how much funds will be there.

2)for Relief funds also we can't predict the available amount as some may donate 100 bucks and some may donate 100000 bucks it's completely their choice DSS can't help in this.

3)In the same way, we cannot use DSS for the letters that will be there in complaint box because some will back off thinking that what difference it would make, some will drop the letter in a box so it's completely based on the understanding of a person.
