Overview of the Change

Student ‘s Last Name 3
Sunoco Inc realized that some of its important files and records were not utilized. Many
of its files were scarcely used. Valuable and useless data had been mixed up. The chief
information officer suggested a change from paper to automated computer records. Moving all
information to the Amazon cloud and establishing a cloud-based warehouse were the CIO’s
other recommendations.
Reason for Change
By moving all information data to Amazon Cloud, the company’s risk to lose data in case
of unprecedented hazard such as fire attacks would be reduced. The proposed cloud-based data
warehouse would help Sunoco personnel's to enhance their decision making in issues regarding
the company. Moreover, time and office space will be significantly saved. Proper filing systems
help a company's staff easily access and retrieve valuable information (Ahmad, Bazlamit and
Ayoush, 2017, pp. 5). Time remains an important resource for any successful company.
Therefore, a more efficient filing system saves a company considerable time and energy,
eventually reducing costs (Li, et al., 2015, pp. 3573). Sunoco Inc saw a need to conserve time
and avoid data losses.
Type of the Change
Sunoco's change from paper to computer-based records can be described as a standard
change. This is because the change has been pre-authorized by the chief information officer for
the benefit of Sunoca Inc. The change is triggered by possible inefficiencies that may arise from
overreliance on paper records.
