Process Flow Impacts in Developing Data Core Process
Use the following scenario to complete your assignment.
You have been asked to consult as a business re-engineering consultant for a business located in Salt Lake City, Utah. Morgan Drygoods, LLC has three branches, and its main offices in the Salt Lake City area. It grew from a single drygoods store begun by Lucas Morgan in 1911. The current CEO of the business is Lucas' great-grandson, James Young. While the store still sells all sorts of household merchandise, including kitchen and cooking supplies, and sewing supplies, bulk cloth, and notions, the store opened a computer department in the 1990s, including desktops and peripherals and, more recently, laptops and tablet computers.
After meeting with Mr. Young and his CFO and CIO, it is clear that they want to somehow streamline their business, making it more efficient and more profitable. They hope to expand a re-engineered business model on a national level.
