Answer to Question 2

The initial implementation of integrated systems is high in terms of both hardware and software costs and human costs due to the re-engineering of business processes. Systems integration often involves sharing of information across department and interdepartmental teams. This often creates power conflicts among the functional departments if they have not bought into the integration. The return on investments (ROI) from systems integration often do not show up until several years after the implementation, and many of these returns come in intangible form and are therefore not recognized on the bottom line of the organization. One last limitation that often occurs with integrated systems is that it restricts creativity and independence in the functional areas since they must now work together in a standardized format.
