IMPROVING USER SATISFACTION IN THE POST-IMPLEMENTATION PHASE OF A LARGE-SCALE INFORMATION SYSTEM

Abstract
This paper presents a framework for identifying and improving user satisfaction for implemented information systems. Frequently, the post-implementation phase of a systems lifecycle is ignored and problems go undetected, which leads to user dissatisfaction. A poorly designed system can become a barrier for users and often they become reluctant to tolerate and use the system. If users resist working with the technology, the potential for the system to generate significant organisational performance gains can be lost, rendering the introduced system a costly mistake. This paper attempts to refine usability beyond just human-computer interaction (HCI). It introduces the Post-Implementation, Usability Synergy (PIUS) framework, which focuses on six different elements, including: training, functionality, reliability, working environment and interfacing, all centred on the actual users of the system, with the aim to enhance user satisfaction towards the new system.
