Write a draft of the proposal explaining the advantages of a review committee, as your boss requested.

What will be an ideal response?

You can approach this task in many ways. Students should demonstrate that they understand the concept of a systems review committee and how it can help a company maximize its IT resources. Although answers will vary, a sample answer follows:

SYSTEMS REVIEW COMMITTEE PROPOSAL
To be competitive, we must use all corporate resources, including IT resources, to produce the greatest possible benefit for our company and our stakeholders. We believe that the best strategy is to create a systems review committee (SRC), with one representative from each major department. The SRC will work as a team to review systems requests, set priorities, and oversee IT projects across the company. In order to avoid any departmental bias, the committee will select a chair, who will report directly to the president.
