SEC failed at this due to the fact that their product will not operate above 130 degrees F, and that the requirements would not be able to be met without different materials (The Orion Shield Project, 2003). Due to this issue alone, it caused problems with the project, delaying the timeline for completion, increased the amount of resources used and not committing to the stakeholders. Not only did they fail to meet the temperature standard, they also failed to meet the life span expectation. Mr. Allison is responsible for overcoming these technical objectives as project manager of The Orion Shield Project. Ethical Issue: Before even beginning the project, Mr. Allison couldn’t keep his commitment in regards to meeting the temperature requirement.
So many issues came up right from the start of the contract. This could have been due to the fact that, the contract was hard to make in the first place, whereby both parties fiercely negotiated every clause of the contract and worse still could hardly reach any consensus. The contract became more complicated because software requirements were not very clear to either party. The contract was ambiguous and both parties went ahead and signed it anyway. Lack of clarity of purpose can be a risk and a legal issue leading to disputes.
Another indicator of Memorial’s project failure regards insufficient leadership support. Two of the organization’s top employees chose to resign at the most inopportune time; leaving the project to a newly appointed interim CEO. Since the CEO was an opponent of IT implementation, there was an obvious lack of belief in the organization’s project. A third indicator involves organizational inertia. The project was quickly implemented; so many workflow and system integration issues were missed.
RTT1 Task 2 Jake McKee Western Governors University RTT1 Task 2 Root Cause Analysis (RCA) that led to sentinel event Root cause in this scenario appears to be a combination of things. Most significantly, staff did not safely adjust to rapidly increasing demands of their patient acuity and census. The infrastructure did not allow simultaneous monitoring of two patients in crisis. The department is at high risk of inundation, being staffed with only one RN and one LPN, one secretary, and one emergency department physician. Secondly, balance in the monitoring of high-risk patients was inadequate.
IT Project Implementation Failures Implementing a new IT project of any kind can be a time consuming task and require a great deal of preparation. It is not a task that can be rushed and if it is, chances are it will not be successful. In the case of the CPOE implementation at the Memorial Health System, the project was destined to fail because of the rushed requirements analysis. It only took six months to complete the acquisition process but a more appropriate and thorough process would have taken longer. From the time the project was introduced, organizational inertia was present in the way physicians responded to the changes that would be required to implement the new system.
Recently growth has been restricted, due in part to recent fines from state and government agencies for poorly kept records for both clients and employees. Recently APremium has not been able to respond to the staffing demands of the newer clients in remote regions, their employee lists have become overwhelming and very difficult to filter through in time to be useful in responding to staffing deficiencies on short notice. The field staff has been complaining that payroll is always late and many of the skilled laborers are threatening to leave. APremium is seeking another contract with a very delicate group of clients who require premium care and attention to code. This contract can increase their business by 75%.
Our cluttered legal system takes almost a quarter to half time of the individual’s lifetime to conclude a case. The slow, cumbersome and long trials i.e. there are absence of rapid disposal of cases which results in the backlogged courtrooms. The effects of the backlog cases on the court system and the courtroom work group means that the defendants have to wait longer between arrest and trials is inordinately long, in order to get a verdict on their case which also affects the number of conviction rates. Another is poor communication between the courtroom work group, and laboratories about the statuses and updates of cases, and having lack of staff and resources to research and get the job done.
Unfortunately on top of that, ICD-11 doesn’t even include a procedure classification system, which means a procedure coding system for use in the US could need to be developed and it is estimated that this process of developing a US clinical modification would take close to a decade. Even if we could consider this, another problem we’d have is a lot of the ground work for ICD-11 is in ICD-10. ICD-10 is the serious foundation work for 11 and without it the industry would completely miss out on a lot of training and experience which is needed for a smooth
Indeed, FEMA’s efforts far exceeded any previous operation in the agency’s history” (Committee, 2006). That being said these efforts were still criticized simply because they weren’t enough. The plans put in place before Katrina’s landfall were seemingly all that planners could do for the time they had. The preparation was massive, preparing for shortages of all kinds and evacuations of personnel in harms
Therefore, as I stated before The Great Depression came about because of three main causes, in my opinion these three causes were not properly dealt with which has people believing that the United States has fallen into another depression similar to the one in the 1930s.
