Business units are concerned about the performance of a newly implemented system. Which of the
following should an IS auditor recommend?

A.
Develop a baseline and monitor system usage.

B.
Define alternate processing procedures.

C.
Prepare the maintenance manual.

D.
implement the changes users have suggested.

Explanation:
An IS auditor should recommend the development of a performance baseline and monitor the
system’s performance, against the baseline, to develop empirical data upon which decisions for
modifying the system can be made. Alternate processing proceduresand a maintenance manual will
not alter a system’s performance. Implementing changes without knowledge of thecause (s) forthe
perceived poor performance may not result in a more efficient system.
