- MANAGEMENT OF INFORMATION ASSETS OVER TIME
- In business/organisations, information
needs to be kept for a long period of time
- ICT Systems need to have plenty of spare capacity to
cope with increasing volume of data
- more hard drives
- Cloud servers
- remove un-needed records (Archive)
- possible for info to be stored for about 10 years
- Finding this info takes time and can be expensive
- Finding this info takes time and can be expensive

- costs of the new system have been recovered
- through
- reduction in admin costs
- improved efficiency
- less wastage
- reduction in admin costs
- through
- savings start to rise above research and development costs
- costs of the new system have been recovered
- The maturity phase
- decline phase

- costs of maintaing rise
- more difficult to maintain

- STANDARDS AFFECTING STRATEGY CHOICES
- allow computers and computer equipment

- this saves time
- because the data is in a form that both computer systems can understand
- therefore the school and the exam board have to use the same
standards so their systems can communicate
