Information system concepts are quite important as they help business operations run
effectively and efficiently. In this regard, to make organizations run smoothly once they
incorporate information system in their daily operations, the concept of information system
quality is a fundamental aspect (O'Brien & Marakas, 2010). The quality of any system is
dependent on time dimension which focuses on timeliness and frequency. Content dimensions
involves the scope of information system, accuracy, completeness, performance and relevance.
Finally, form dimensions involves the concept of system clarity, presentation and details
requirements. System quality is quite important and it is applicable in the industrial market when
evaluating if all system requirements and specifications have been met. The quality of any
information system should be demonstrated by the functional aspect of the system (Sein et al,
2011). Specifically, it should be able to execute error free, on timely manner and give desirable
results.
The next concept is information system testing and security. Security of the system is
important because it measures how organizational data is secure and free from intrusion. Once
system is developed and it has to be installed in organization for production, all necessary tests
should be done to make sure it is secure and free from errors (Jamrich, 2017). In regard to system
security, all measures should be taken to secure organizational data. Information system security
concepts can be applied in industrial market to monitor security of organizational data (O'Brien
& Marakas, 2010). The test has to be done before system is installed for production purpose in
the company in order to evaluate required system security.
