Data was collected from various parts of the organization, processe d and stored for subsequent use. As systems development an d processing moves out to the functional areas, IS ha s become more delivery oriented. Issues of concern seem t o be more associated with connectivity from machine to user and user to user rather than analysis and design o f production applications. While a great deal of data is stil l being centrally accumulated, access to and processing o f this information is gradually moving closer to the points o f final consumption. Consequently, the IS function is becoming responsible for information logistics within th e organization. Telecommunications are the key components and provide the organization infrastructure for thi s phenomena. Telecommunications provides links between a company and its suppliers and customers. It provides a conduit through which information can flow in support o f decision making. Telecommunications also includes the transportation of non-data signals as well. Voice and video communications directly impacts the day-today function s of the manager. It is estimated that 88% of a manager' s time is spent communicating (Mintzberg, (1973)). As the forms of communication become more diverse an d numerous (e .g ., facsimile, electronic mail, voice mail), the importance of effective communication managemen t becomes critical. The 1984 divestiture of AT&T has brought abou t changes to the structure and methods of telecommunicatio n management within large organizations. Prior to the divestiture, voice and data communication managemen t were frequently handled by different divisions and levels o f the firm. Voice communication management consisted o f purchase and implementation/operations decisions with th e local telephone company or similar firms. Data communications, usually operating under the aegis of MIS , was responsible for keeping terminal equipment and loca l lines operational. Although the ubiquitous telephone touched more employees than the computer, the dat a communications function was afforded more visibilit y because of its ties with MIS. After the divestiture, increase d competition and technological advances forced both areas t o consider broader functionality in the capabilities an d management of their telecommunication environments. I n fact, we are now witnessing a merger of the once disparat e 16 DATA BASE Spring 1989 groups into a single unit responsible for telecommunicatio n services to the firm.

As attractive as this migh t sound most organizations are faced with a much mor e glaring problem that is consuming the vast majority o f available resources . Resources that otherwise might b e dedicated to these new projects . The problem is how do w e manage and maintain a 30 year inventory of applicatio n software . The issue is not trivial since the software span s both hardware and software generations and is critical to the day-to-day operations of the business . A brief analysis of the problem indicates it will only get worse . For every new system placed in production we generate another piece of software to be added to the eclectic inventory . Admittedly maintenance can be classified as a technical problem and needs a technical solution . But the only hope of getting a handle on the issue and determinin g how to maintain the inventory, without sacrificing th e future of the organization, is to develop a manageria l solution. The solution needs to address such issues a s strategy, productivity, policy, procedures, and priorities . In an attempt to learn more about the practica l implications and organizational realities of managing th e maintenance function, 29 MIS directors and maintenanc e managers were assembled to discuss the issue. All of th e attendees represented member firms of the Informatio n System Research Center at the University of Houston . A round table discussion format was used to facilitat e interaction among the attendees .
