abstract |
The replacement of legacy systems in government agencies is a challenging and complex
process. Legacy software features and the business practices they support tend to
be reproduced in replacement applications, because practitioners are averse to the
risks associated with business process change. As a result, opportunities to introduce
efficiencies and innovation with new technologies are missed. Since legacy replication
occurs prominently during the requirements phase of legacy replacement projects, an
online role-playing game (PROVO) was designed to promote creativity during the analysis
and critique of business requirements stemming from legacy systems. The game was evaluated
by a small group of practitioners from a municipal organization in the United States.
The findings of the evaluation session are discussed and used to inform changes to
PROVO’s design. |
