Question 3. Information systems development (20 marks) You have recently joined a new IT consulting firm called BISM-Digital which will specialise in providing tailored and cutting-edge information systems to governments, banks, manufacturers, and other large organisations. BISM-Digital has been approached by several firms that have indicated they need: (i) new cutting- edge information systems tailored to their organisation's needs; (ii) information systems delivered as quick as possible so as to better compete in the market; (ii) want to actively be involved and engage with BISM-Digital throughout the information systems development process; and, (iv) that because of the novelty of their information systems projects the development process must be able to accommodate change. These firms have also expressed concerns that information systems development projects are frequently late, have high failure rates and the end product rarely meets their requirements. Based on the needs of customers, your manager has tasked you with making a recommendation on whether BISM-Digital should follow either a Scrum or Waterfall approach for information systems development. Q3. Make a recommendation to your manager that BISM-Digital follows either Scrum or Waterfall in its information systems development projects. Using the Scrum/Waterfall process and concepts give four reasons why Waterfall/Scrum could lead to more successful outcomes. In doing so, contrast your reasons with the alternate approach (.e., if you suggest Scrum then contrast your answer with Waterfall). (800 words) (20 marks) his
