INTRODUCTION
To develop a new system, there are various stages which are involved into the procedure.
These may involve planning, analysis, designing, implementation and maintenance phase. Thus,

TASK 1
Characteristics of good information and its importance in Holipets Pet Care information system
Holipets is a holiday service for pets. Currently they are maintaining their records
manually. They make use of word processing for producing letters. With the advancement in
technology, owner felt that there is need of computerized system so that activities could be
conducted in better way. The staff would make use of this system for recording tasks and carry
out different activities. Thus, to develop system efficiently it is required that all the information
collected should be of optimum quality.
Good information could be defined as information which holds necessary requirements
and should be precise. It is required that it should be relevant to the given context and have
proper meaning as well. It should be capable enough to identify errors that business organisation
could face. Information after entering into system is called as data. For efficiently functioning of
business operations is very essential. Thus, it is helpful in decision making process of the
company. Characteristics of good information are discussed below: Valid: It is a kind of information that is accurate and appropriate for the given context.
Thus, due its validity it could be utilized for the given purpose. For example, one can
only trust information if it is certified by government. It could be termed as valid
information. Financial details that could be termed as valid includes tax rates imposed by
government authorities for the different ventures. Reliable: Information on which one can rely or depend upon for conducting various
business activities are termed as reliable. For example, information provided by the sales

department to the finance related to sales data and statistics. In order to develop system

deviate ultimate results as well. Relevant: Information is gathered from various sources depending upon the need of
situation. Thus, it is required that it should be relevant with the given context and should
assist in decision making procedures as well for the firms. Apt information could help in
identifying and examining situation in much better way. In the given context, if the
collected information is not as per the requirement of owner of Holipets, then it would
lead to defective system development. It is also needed that it should be present in
appropriate form so that everybody in the company could access it on situation demand.
 Timely: it is another feature needed to be considered in context of good and quality
information. It represents availability as per given time period. For effectively developing
software for the Holipets, it is required that latest technology and development format
should be adopted. As we know, with the development in technology, demand for
updated products in the market has raised which is required to be adopted by all the
organisations. It should also be taken as it must be available whenever it is required for
its usage by the employees. For example, if owner wants to know details about bookings
of pets of today, then system should be capable enough to display info filtered on time
basis.
Importance of good information for businesses and Holipets
It is beneficial for smooth functioning of enterprise operations and various activities. Cost
effective information is required for conducting several tasks. When quality is achieved, then
effective system is developed which assists in business operations. Thus, it holds importance for

the owner as well as employees to record bookings, modify database, etc., they could also be
assisted with updated information which could be made available to the customers also on their
