What are the characteristics of integrated software?

Answer 1

They allow the specialists to do what they do best while making their results available for use by all other departments. For example, the purchasing agent and/or inventory control manager keeps abreast of paper prices, sources and current availability. However, the Estimating module and the Imposition and Planning module are both extremely dependent on knowing this information. If either of these modules are not integrated into the company-wide paper database, they cannot remain accurate.For processes involving extensive and complex analysis, the computer can achieve what a human cannot. Optimally imposing a ganged layout is one of these; detailed and accurate cost estimating and production scheduling are other examples. The database of an Integrated MIS system, however, is invariably more accurate and more complete. One example, to illustrate the point, would be paper pricing. It was pointed out, above, that the purchasing agent would maintain a more complete and more accurate file of stock prices. Paper, however, is priced based on quantity purchased. It also depends on the source, the incoming freight and whether or not it's a special order item that must be expedited. A full MIS system should include all this logic; the stand-alone system will have a very simplistic "Paper price = $xx.xx", yet claim to compute impositions based on "the least cost layout".
