解説

問 15

  • ア

    正解 EUC (End User Computing) is an approach in which, instead of leaving everything to the information systems department, the frontline users who actually use the system carry out tasks such as extracting and processing business data and creating statistical materials by themselves. The system being built in this question is a sales support system used by the sales department, so its users (the end users) are the sales department. Therefore, the most appropriate organization to handle the operation of data extraction, processing, and statistical material creation is Company A's sales department, and the correct answer is ア.

  • Incorrectイ

    Company A's information systems department is responsible for planning, building, and maintaining the system. EUC is precisely an approach that shifts such tasks from the information systems department to the frontline users, so having the information systems department handle the operation goes against the idea of EUC and is inappropriate.

  • Incorrectウ

    Company B's software package development department is a department on the external vendor side that develops the package product itself. It is not in a position to handle the operation of Company A's day-to-day business data extraction and statistical material creation, nor is it the main actor of EUC, so it is inappropriate.

  • Incorrectエ

    Company B's software package implementation department is a department on the vendor side that supports the introduction and setup of the package. It is not the main actor of the day-to-day data processing and aggregation operations performed by users after implementation, nor does it count as the frontline users that EUC assumes, so it is inappropriate.

ここがポイント
  • EUC (End User Computing) is the idea that data extraction, processing, aggregation, and similar tasks are performed not by the information systems department but by the frontline business department (the users) who use the system themselves.
  • Once you identify who uses the system, you can determine that the operating entity for EUC is that user department (in this question, the sales department).
