based on what i have read, Information Systems fails in ways more than one. There are a lot of factors affecting the failure of a System. There are a lot of factors involving the failure of a system. But based on what I have read, there are five major concepts of failure. These are:
- Incomplete or the requirements are not given
- Failure to meet the deadline
- Cost
- Unused Systems
- Customers are not satisfied of what they get
On those said failures, the cost and the unsatisfied customers can be connected. Some IS can be relatively cheap compared to most but there may be a flaw or two that can be seen. Due to this flaws, the users may find it annoying and will resort to dumping the said IS and find a new IS, which means that the discarded system will be lost. If the requirements is not met in a said IS, then that will be considered a failure for its use is limited and there is certainly flaws that will arise.

it's just so sad that IS is also a subect to failure considering the votal role it is plays in an organization.
Yeah, I agree with your opinion, IS system must be organized and planned well including sufficient budget for it too run well. Cheers!!
