Fayol's 14 Principles of Management

• 1. Division of Labour

  The more people specialize, the more efficiently they perform their job. This principle is very clear in the modern assembly line.

• 2. Authority

  Managers need to give orders to get things done. While formal authority gives them the right to rule, managers do not always get obedience unless they have personal authority (leadership).

• 3. Discipline

  The members of an organization must follow the rules and conventions that govern the company. This will be the result of good leadership at all levels, equitable arrangements (such as arrangements to reward superior performance), and sanctions for violations, fairly applied.

• 4. Unity of Command (Management Unit)

  Operations that have the same objective

Prototype Development in System Analysis

In this stage, an iterative method is explained, and the responsibilities of users are highlighted, with the user directly involved in the process. The speed with which the system generates results is essential to maintain momentum on the project, allowing users to assess the application as soon as possible. A professional system for initial prototype construction uses tools such as Fourth Generation Languages, Report Generators, and Display Generators. When developing a prototype, the following components are essential:

• The language for dialogue or conversation between the user and the system

Quality Standards and Definitions

Standards: UNE-EN ISO 9000 defines quality as the degree to which a set of inherent characteristics fulfills the needs or expectations established, generally implied or obligatory.

W. Edwards Deming: quality is meeting customer needs and expectations. Philip Crosby: quality is defined as conformance to requirements, not necessarily excellence. Quality is established within a customer–supplier relationship: initial measures indicate whether a product or service meets needs and specifications. Quality does not mean that everything is perfect; it means the product or service meets the acceptable levels set by clients.
