Abstract
The selection and implementation of an automated system into business processes for SME leads to the problem
of decision, evaluation and reliability of the system. In order to solve such problems adequate applied research is
required, along with software analysis. Reliable, integrated, flexible and open management system for different organizational
processes is an indispensable condition for the growth for the enterprise’s competitiveness.
The article presents the principles and aspects of requirements analysis, coming from organizational processes
and leading to potencial decisions. Apart from dealing with the factors expressing the reliability of chosen decisions,
it also estimates IT enterprises efforts of such system integration. It considers the information technology system
requirements for four possible decision options considered: a) a universal system developed from scratch, b) an existing
system which is improved by adding some minor add-ons, c) a system best suitable only for a specific company,
d) a platform suitable for development and integration of flexible and adjustable components, covering all aspects of
SME activities. The analysis of the organizational management systems‘ functionality of components requirements
strongly favours to the decision of design of a platform suitable for the development and integration of flexible and
adjustable components.
