job description

The system analyst uses many tools and skills to practice as a consultant. The client often defines some of the tools by selecting computing solutions before selecting an analyst. Key skills are observation, curiosity, communication, patience and let me repeat patience.

An analyst educates clients (management and staff) to allow them to make good business decisions about which computing tools to use and how to deploy them. If the client could make these decisions alone the analyst would not be a necessary part developing solutions.

An analyst investigates many topics with the purpose of gaining an understanding of all sides of the problems involved in building applications which perform tasks for customers (clients). An analyst uses this understanding to properly guide development of computing systems to solve tasks for organizations. Some clients are individuals with one or two computers. Some clients are large business units with hundreds of systems.

The system analyst takes a unique role in developing business solutions. The analyst must have knowledge of both business and computing. The analyst often spends time investigating a business process to understand how the data and communications flow with individual tasks and transactions.

One key role for an analyst is to remain current with many computing tools. With the explosion of computing popularity this can be difficult. An analyst must keep in touch with emerging solutions and evaluations of new versions of existing software. The analyst must be able to correctly recommend tools which will work together and to quickly guide his client away from combinations with conflicts and incompatibilities. Failure in this area is fatal for client relations.

The analyst must understand as many aspects of how computing fits into an organization as possible. This includes everything from the reception desk to the loading dock. Organizations are demanding interconnected networks and productivity enhancement tools. Marketing groups demand presentation tools and publications staff seek to bring pre-press tasks back from the ad agency. Upper management demands access to information and at the same time demand security as tight as Fort Knox.

An analyst must have a broad understanding of data management. Many businesses misunderstand that data is a resource just like cash, capital, buildings, tools or people. A successful analyst protects his client from loss of important data. An analyst must understand how data flows through an organization and which people should have the right to modify data, where read-only access should be invoked, and where data is to be sequestered.

An analyst must be an excellent communicator and organizer. The investigative process often generates large amounts of information about an organization, it's people, data, and processes. The analyst must be able to draw back and make a simplistic picture which accurately captures the overview.
