For example, a retail store, a medical practice, and
a hotel chain all have unique information systems requirements. Systems analysts use a
process called business process modeling to represent company operations and information
needs. Business process modeling requires a business profile and a series of models
that document business processes.
As the business world changes, systems analysts can expect to work in new kinds of
companies that require innovative IT solutions, including Web-based systems that serve
customers and carry out online transactions with other businesses.
