- A linear programming computer package is needed. Epsilon Airlines services predominately the eastern and southeastern United States. A vast majority of Epsilon's customers make reservations through Epsilon's website, but a small percentage of customers make reservations via phone. Epsilon employs call-center personnel to handle these reservations along with any problems with the website reservation system and for the rebooking of flights for customers if their plans change or their travel is disrupted. Staffing the call center appropriately is a challenge for Epsilon's management team. Having too many employees on hand is a waste of money, but having too few results in very poor customer service and the potential loss of customers. Epsilon analysts have estimated the minimum number of call-center employees needed by day of week for the upcoming vacation season (June, July, and the first two weeks of August).

The credit collection department recently shifted from the legacy system to a new system that was installed four months ago. Mr Smith is not happy with this newly installed system. His complaint is that the data flow from the billing and account receivable departments is not occurring in the manner originally requested. Further, the updates to the database files are not occurring as frequently as he had envisioned. Thus, the hope that the new system would provide more current and timely information has not materialised. Mr Smith claims that the systems analysts spent three days interviewing him and other workers in his department. During that time, he and the other workers thought they had clearly conveyed their needs. At this stage, Mr Smith feels as if their needs were ignored, and their time was wasted. Required: Identify the issues in the system design process. How can these…
