ITPEC IP April 2019 — Question 21 of 100

Installing an existing business application package can reduce development cost. The organization buys and configures software whose common functions have already been implemented and tested instead of funding a complete application-development effort from scratch.

Answer (b)

Why not others:
- (a) concerns improving a development environment, but package adoption reduces the need to develop the application

- (c) is not intended to teach the organization development methods

- (d) does not improve developers' skills because much of the development work is avoided

Key rule: Package software trades some customization freedom for lower development effort, cost, and implementation time.
