Overview

In your role as an employee at a medium-to-large aviation-related business, it’s time to drill down to the specifics for two of the Management Information Systems you selected. As you perform research and compose your data, remember that you are in a mid-to-upper level management position and have significant decision-making influence with your company.

Detailed Instructions

Before you begin to work on the Project Submission 2 assignment, review the instructor’s grading comments and markups on the Project Submission 1 document and correct any issues. Re-save the corrected Project Submission 1 document as a new Project Submission 2 working document.

The following are the submission requirements for this assignment:

The Title, Abstract, and Reference List pages are not considered part of the “FOUR full pages” in the Body of the Text section.
• A minimum of TWO primary reference sources outside of the course textbook are required to be cited and referenced in the document submission (ONE per topic).
• As you do your research and compose data for each of the IS-related solutions in each assignment, keep up the Reference List page and make notes for the data in the Conclusion section that you will compose in your final draft document.

Don’t forget to save the working document when you have finished adding the new data.

Your document submission is due by the posted due date. Your instructor will use the 5.3 Research Project: Submission 2 Rubric for evaluating and grading your submission.
